9 YEARS LATER
SEPTEMBER 2018.
(play media)
one, two, three, four, five.
alex counts her steps as she walked on the hard concrete sidewalk. looking up, the sun kisses her face, giving her skin a beautiful glow.
as she walked, she felt a little lonely watching the people around her converse with one another as they were probably heading to work.
alex, however, was heading to a dreaded place they call school.
before she could turn into the next street leading to her university, she felt a pair of hands slamming her shoulders, making her let out a terrified squeak.
loud cackling erupts out of her best friend, yuri. alex turns around slowly, giving her a death glare.
yuri chokes on her laugh as she points at alex. "that-" she huffs out a breath, "-was so funny!"
alex rolls her eyes at her best friend, crossing her arms. "not to me."
yuri holds onto her knees, calming her laughter down. she finally stands up straight, and alex turns around, beginning to walk away.
"hey, wait for me!" yuri runs up to alex, walking alongside her as she does.
alex looks down, and notices something. "woah, you got new shoes!" she exclaims, smiling up at her taller friend.
she hated to admit, but she was short compared to many other people her age. she has no idea why, but her height hadn't changed so much after puberty.
"i know," yuri smiles smugly. "finally, after a few long years of keeping the same old white shoes, i finally bought new ones. they're fresh."
alex chuckles, "yeah, finally."
yuri gasps, as she places a hand on alex's shoulder. "hey, you're working today, right?" alex raises an eyebrow. "yeah, why?"
yuri stomps her foot, "damn it! i wanted to introduce you to this guy i met on instagram. he's so cute, and i think he would be perfect for you!"
alex chuckles, shaking her head. "ah, you see..relationships aren't much of my priority right now..."
yuri scrunches up her nose at her friend's words, "aish, way to ruin the fun."
the two arrive at the university, walking up the stairs leading to the entrance. they both walk inside, being met with the spacious facility around them.
"come on, alex. we're in university now! don't you think you're already old enough to have a boyfriend?"
alex looks at yuri with a "are you serious?" look.
"yeah, but don't forget that school exists."

humming softly, alex reorganizes some books as it was a task her boss had given to her before she does anything else.
it was currently four o'clock, and most students must have been dismissed by now. there were student flooding into the library one by one, for whatever reason.
people softly chattered around her, as she continued to be in her own world.
out of the blue, a book falls down the shelf behind her, and accidentally hits her head. "ow!" she lightly yelped, holding her head with one hand.
clicking her tongue, she turns around, seeing no one behind her. slightly pissed, she mutters curses under her breath as she continues to do what she was doing.
suddenly, she felt a tap on her shoulder.
alex immediately turns her head, her hair hitting the person in the face.
"oh! oh my gosh, i'm so sorry-" she begins to apologize, pausing when the person lets out chuckle.
in front of her stood a tall, and handsome boy who had silky, chestnut-brown hair that was in the shape of a bowl. he wore a green football jacket that made him look like a jock. in which, he most likely was.
"i was going to apologize for accidentally knocking a book down onto your head, but your hair accidentally smacked me in the face."
"yeah, um-" alex scratches the back of her neck, feeling a little flustered. "i guess we both owe each other apologies then?" the boy cutely tilts his head with an innocent smile.
alex nods, smiling back. "i'm sor-" they both speak at the same time, making the two pause, before laughing.
"you first." alex gestures.
"i'm sorry." the boy bows, his bangs falling in front of his face after. alex giggles, bowing. "i'm sorry, too."
the boy's smile reaches his eyes, as he holds out his hand in front of alex. "i'm jungkook."
alex takes her hand in his, "alex."
"well alex," the two let go of each other's hands, "this should be the start of a beautiful friendship."
