My Tutor's Son [Choi Yeonjun]

+3+

The final bell chimed down the school halls, which for many meant freedom from any form of education until tomorrow. However, that was not the case for you. It now meant you had little over an hour until you had to arrive at Ms Mikyong's home. 

Since you lived around thirty minutes away from your school, and your tutor lived only fifteen, you decided to go to a convenient store and wait there until it was time for your tutoring. When you arrived at the store, you bought a cup of instant ramen to eat.

Once the ramen was ready, you took a seat at one of the stores window seat and began to eat it. After one mouth full, you heard the shop door open. Out of curiosity, you looked and saw a boy. The same boy that you saw last week, Kang Taehyun. 

You tried to hide your face, but it was too late. Taehyun noticed you and smiled.

"Hey Y/n, long time no see"

He said as he turned and made his way over to you. It was then that you noticed he had a black eye and a fading cut on his lip. Taehyun noticed that were staring and quickly ran his thumb over his cut lip.

"Don't worry, this didn't happen they day I called you over"

"It.. didn't?"

You said with confusion, as you ate another mouthful of ramen.

"No, it happened a few days after. I was just in the wrong place at the wrong time.. yet again"

He said with a laugh. 

Taehyun noticed you became uncomfortable as you kept averting your gaze away from him. He sighed and took a seat across from you.

"I'm sorry I got you involved"

"W-what?"

You said as you now looked at the man in front of you.

"I'm sorry I called on you, it wasn't right for me to. Especially considering we haven't spoke in over a year"

"It's fine.. I understand why you did it"

You muttered as you lowered your head and checked your phone for the time. 

4:46pm

You almost choked on your food as you jumped to your feet. Taehyun was taking aback by your abrupt movement, and jumped to his feet as well.

"Are you okay?"

He said in a panic as he ran to your side to assist your coughing state.

"I'm f-fine, I'm just going to be late!"

"L-late?"

Taehyun said with uncertainty to his voice, as if he didn't believe that was the reason for your hasty reaction. You quickly nodded as you gathered up your belongings and put on your coat.

"Yes! I have maths tutoring at five and I'm going to be late!"

You quickly spat out a goodbye to Taehyun before sprinting out of the convenient store and making your way to your tutors home.

--------------------------

You arrived at the home with minutes to spare. 

Relived, you looked up at the home and noticed that it was way bigger than you expected it to be. It was only around twenty minutes from your home, but it was clear that you and this tutor lived very different worlds. The house looked almost like a mansion, or a countryside estate that some lord lived in. Your tutor's must have a successful life outside of being a tutor, or her partner was extremely wealthy. 

You took a nervous breath before knocking on the front door. Within moments the door swung open and you were face to face with a woman. She smiled brightly as she took your hand and shook it.

"Huening Y/n I presume?", you nodded. "It's nice to meet you, I'm your tutor"

"It's nice to meet you Ms Mikyong-"

"You can just call me Mikyong, please come in"

Mikyong stepped aside and you made your way into the house, which was even more extravagant inside. 

The home's main hallway led to a grand staircase to the upper level and a crystal chandelier. The floor was made of marble and the walls where a pristine white colour. You were taken a back. Even when your parents were together, and you lived in a bigger home than you did now, your home was never this large or regal.

"You have a beautiful home"

You breathed out in awe as you followed Mikyong upstairs.

"Thank you dear, I do try my best to keep things in order here"

She said cheerily as she led you into the homes study. In the room was multiple bookshelves and a few desks and chairs. The room was like a mini library in the household.

"Sit down wherever you'd like"

Mikyong announced as she approached a blackboard and began to pick up some chalk that was placed nearby.

You nodded as you took a seat and placed your maths books and textbook down on the desk. You were looking through your textbook, when Mikyong told you.

"Oh! Before I forget, my son may be joining us in these lessons from time to time. I hope that's not a problem with you"

"Nope, that's fine"

"Good! Now on to our first lesson"
