the reality

ch.1

Jeon JiAhn

Judging by the silent atmosphere in my home it looks like both of my parents already left for work. After putting on my uniform and putting my hair up I took a look out my window and saw my friend waiting outside.

Running down the stairs I grabbed my shoes and coat placed them on before leaving. After locking the door I headed out the gate and saw my friend holding a cup of coffee along with a bag. "Here. Eat it while it's still warm." He said and held my coat for me.

"Isaac's Toast? Yah Seo Jihoon, isn't it a bit early for this?" I asked and he just sighed and took the bag from me and placed it my backpack. "Fine, just eat later. At least drink the coffee." He said then we began to walk to school. Along the way our other friends joined us and with that our whole group walked into school.

As the usual we headed into our classroom that's filled with a bunch of idiots besides Kim Miseok who's the Vice President of our class. "Yah Kim Minseok! Why didn't you join us this morning?" The one that just yelled is one of my best friends Ahn Solbin it still makes me wonder how she got here but I'm not complaining.

"So is there any announcements that I need to make?" The class president asked who so happens to be my other best friend Kim Hyunsoo. Those two have a friend/enemy friendship which we all find hilarious since they seem to be more friendly than competitive.

The bell rang and we all sat in our seats and watched the morning announcements which are completely useless. "Ugh, it's been the same thing all week." Last but now least the final piece on our friend group, Kim Sohee. I would introduce our other friend Choi Seunghyun but he's asleep.

Leaning back in my chair my phone fell out of my pocket. I was about to lean down to reach for it but the guy next to me picked it up. "Thanks.." I said and all he did was look at me with his emotionless eyes. That guy is Seo Youngjoo, everyone finds him mysterious and calls him a psychopath which I don't see since I'm not the one to judge.

Once the morning announcements was done we started our regular day with the usual and waited for lunch to begin since I have that toast that Jihoon gave me. "Remember these 5 problems are due tomorrow." The teacher soon left then the whole class leaned back in their seats and sighed. I went to my little cubby to grab my next journal for the next session.

Once I opened it my pencil case fell out "Looks like you like dropping your things." I looked at how Youngjoo picked up my pencil case and placed it back in my cubby. "Sorry.." I said then he flashed a small smile before leaving the room. Both Sohee and Solbin came running up to me and looked at me in the eyes and started checking my body.

"What?" I asked looking at my uniform. "Why was he talking to you? Why did he smile at you?!" They asked then a deep chuckle was heard and when I turned around Youngjoo was by the door then turned to leave. "He just picked up my stuff.." I replied since I don't know why in the world they're freaking out about.

Our whole group began to walk to the lunch room but stopped in our tracks when we heard the slam of a locker followed by a laugh that everyone despises. "Get out of my way next time loser." I looked at the person who's voice who belonged to and once the both of us made eye contact he gave a smirk before pushing the kid once more then leaving with his group.

"Seriously I still question how in the world you and BeomCheol are cousins" Sohee asked while rolling her eyes. "We're not blood related." I answered and continued walking to our criminal investigation/justice club room. The school hates our club because of the scandal we uncovered during our research. They tried getting rid of our club but with the help of the parents of the students in the school we were able to keep the club.
