The picture above is how the uniform looks like. Just imagine pants instead of a skirt for males.

His legs didn't bring him far from where the pain in his chest started. It was just outside the front portal of the school on the left side of its outer walls.

The solid and smooth cement walls decorated with aesthetic embroideries became the support of his weakened body as he leaned his back against it.

Anxiety tainted breath pumped out to the sky like a bellowing bull, releasing all kinds of mixed bad things that he was feeling but none of it manage to lighten up his burden.

That was the third time and the third place he was haunted by a familiar burning pain. It couldn't be a coincidence that happened and the fact he knew the one and the only reason made him frustrated.

All he has to do was wait. The moment his suspicion is proven will be the moment his life will start to crumble. No matter how hard he tried to stay tall, his core still faltered.

A tired sigh escaped his mouth before he slides down to the ground, hiding his face between his upped knees. Calmed down ever so slightly, he started thinking. Thinking about his future action.

'This is ridiculous.' He thought, slowly burying himself into the void of his mind. He'd rather die than go back to the painful world that he desperately managed to escape. He will do anything to push that kind of cruel fate away.

Scattering footsteps around him gave no meaning as he dived deeper into a blank space. It was his old habit whenever he feels weak and his heart becomes heavy. The blank void will numb his body, inside and outside.

'I guess I'm still the same inside, huh? Weak.'

He was flopping to the side bit by bit before a hand on his shoulder pulled him straight. His head snapped up by the touch. His heavy breathing can be heard by his own ears.

"You look like you're dying." Said the blonde girl. Her rude words clearly showed that she was joking.

He turned his head to the left toward JiU, crouching down while hugging her knees. He then looked up to two other girls beside her. All of them gave him a look of concern and quizzical.

He took it as they probably wondering about him so he gave them a reply, an equal one with the question from the girl beside him. "I'm a diehard kind of guy, so don't worry." He said and chose to look at the empty rocky path in front of him instead of her face.

Shrugging while pouting her lower lip, JiU stood up and turned toward Yoohyeon. After a while, he heard the rustling of plastic before she spoke again thus blocking his view with something white.

"Here. Your new uniform." She said, dangling the said uniform in front of his face.

Tilted his head back to get a clearer look, he looked up at her. She jerked her head toward it, asking him to take it from her hand so he did and took the chance to slightly scan it.

"I thought you and SuA won't be able to come so I picked it up." She said and was about to cross her arms when her sister shoved her uniform into her embrace.
