Chapter 11: Kappa Iota Lambda

Hoseok walks into the hospital, looking around the lobby for his friend. People are milling about, reading the directory and talking to the attending physicians. The waiting area is almost full of sniffling children and adults who appear to be in some sort of pain. He finally spots her. She sits in a wheelchair, her bag marked with her sorority letters hanging from the handlebars. She has a water bottle half empty, seated in between her knees.

"ChinSun-ah!" Hoseok says excitedly as he walks over to her. She looks up from scrolling on her phone and smiles widely at him. He is glad to see that she looks well, with color in her cheeks, despite the sunken look of her face. He supposes that's what happens when you're in a coma for several days.

"Hobi-ah! Thank you so much for getting me. I am so ready to get out of here."

She attempts to stand up but the orderly at the desk shoots her a look, shaking her head. ChinSun sighs and looks at Hoseok apologetically.

"Um, you have to wheel me out of here, unfortunately. Hospital rules." She points her head to the sign to the left, which states all discharges must be wheeled out.

Hoseok shoos away her apology, waving his hand. He walks to stand behind her and grabs the wheelchair handles so he can push ChinSun out of the doors.

"It's okay, I'm just glad you're awake and healthy. When will you be back at dance practice?"

ChinSun shakes her head.

"I'm not sure. With the semester about to end, I have to leave the sorority house, which means I'll probably have to go home for the summer. So...probably once the school year starts again." She turns in the chair to look at Hoseok's face. "It's okay though, it will give me time to get this body back in shape." She gestures at her petite body, a sultry look on her face.

He smiles at her, nodding as he laughs. "No rush, no rush. I guess I should put a hold on practices then as well, I forgot about summer break for you guys."

He helps load her into his car, placing her bag at her feet, before climbing into the driver side and heading to campus. They make small talk about dance and summer plans, small flirty comments here and there, until Hoseok pulls up to the sorority house.

It looks like an old plantation style home, with a wide front porch and double doors at the top of the stairs that lead up to the deck. It is painted a now fading white, but the sorority colors, pink and purple, are painted on the window panes and shutters. Three Greek letters are atop of the porch awning of the second floor: Kappa Iota Lambda.

Hoseok gets out of the car, moving around it to help ChinSun gather her belongings to walk her up to the front door. She struggles slightly pulling her keys out of her bag, giving Hoseok time to look at the house closer. Cobwebs are in the far reaches under the porch roof, and the paint is peeling worse now that he is close enough to see it. The wood looks swollen in some places; this can't be a safe porch to walk on...she finally unlocks the door, and it swings open with an ominous creak that makes Hoseok jump; he isn't a scaredy cat, but...he is a scaredy cat. The house may have looked cute on the outside from the street, but looking into the house? Hoseok shivers. It is dimly lit, and the long hallways look eerie. He guesses most of the residents are out studying these last few days of school before exams. He doesn't want to go into the house, hoping to just hand ChinSun the bag at the front door or maybe set it down right inside, but she turns to look at him, an eyebrow rising seductively.

"Hobi-ah, I'm still feeling...weak. Can you carry that up to my room for me?"

Hoseok swears he sees her eyelashes flutter up at him. He swallows hard, torn between the safety of the daylight and being a gentleman. His instincts lose out; years of his mother and sister telling him to treat women well bolstering him with bravery.
