Johnny put the phone up to his ear. He knew what the office was going to say, but he had to answer the phone because he had a job to do, of course.

"Mr. Seo, your student, Jung Yoon-oh is absent today." The monotone voice of the secretary said.

"I see, thank you." He sighed, shutting the phone down a bit harshly, startling a few students.

The man stood up and walked to the front of the class, he cleared his throat to gain the attention of his students.

"Mrs. Choi will be here shortly. I have to leave for some important meetings, I expect you to continue your work silently. That is all, students." He said, leaving with his briefcase in hand.

Johnny ignored the quiet muttering amongst the students about how this was his third leave just this week.

He opened the office door, "I'm taking a leave for today, important duties." He explained, signing the paper to allow him a pass, even though the secretary was supposed to do that.

"Are you sure Mr. Seo? This is going to be the third time this week, what could be so important that you have to take this many leaves?" She asked, obviously curious.

"I'm afraid it's my business only, Ms. Kang." He said, a bit harshly.

Ms. Kang sat back, "I see...have a good rest of your day." She muttered. Johnny nodded and left shortly after.

Johnny sighed and knocked on the door, waiting patiently with his hands in his pockets.

"Hello? Oh, Mr. Seo?" Yoon-oh's mother said, opening the door fully to allow the man to enter.

"What are you doing here? Is school out early?" She asked.

"Hello, Mrs. Jung, and no, I'm here to see your son actually." 

The woman's eyes widened slightly, a sign to show she was a little shocked that her son's teacher was visiting him during school hours. 

"Mrs. Jung?"

That seemed to have shaken the woman out of her daze, "yes, of course, come in Mr. Seo." She said, motioning for the man to come in.

"He's upstairs...but he hasn't come out of his room ever since...well the problem is, I don't know! He won't talk to me anymore," she confessed, looking at the man with a pleading gaze.

"I see, thank you, Mrs. Jung. I came here to talk to him and hopefully fix whatever is going on," he assured, shaking his shoes off and ascending the stairs to his student's room.

He walked past the boring hallways leisurely, stopping in front of the room he guessed was Yoon-oh's. Johnny glanced down to the floor, where an empty plate and glass was placed. He sighed, picking the dishes up and putting them to the side.

"Yoon-oh?" Johnny said, knocking on the door with his knuckles, "are you there? It's Johnny." He called.

There was shuffling from inside the bedroom before Yoon-oh cracked open the door, "Mr. Seo—I mean, hyung?" He said in shock.

"Can I come in? If you're not busy, that is." He said, gesturing to the student's lack of shirt.

Yoon-oh blushed, "I-uh...j-just a moment, hyung." He stammered, slamming the door closed. Johnny stayed still and listened to the shuffling of papers and various objects.
