rooftop lunch

Lunch came, and Yugyeom is nowhere to be seen around the cafeteria.

Jinyoung wasn't really expecting that Yugyeom would show up for his lunch invite, but it hurts him a little bit.

Its alright, he's just an anti-social kid. He will get used to it eventually. Jinyoung thought to himself.

"Jinyoung-ah, here!" Jaebum raised his hand. "Coming!"

Yugyeom was actually on the rooftop with his packed lunch. He never really liked school lunch due to his middle school experience, where he threw up his lunch.

Ever since then, his mom packed his lunch if she make it. If no, Yugyeom was willing to stop by somewhere before getting to school.

But living in a new neighbourhood without his parents, he felt a little weird. His pantry shelf is full of ramyeon and his fridge is full of chocolate milk and junk stuffs.

He doesn't really have any choice other than stopping by Subway, thinking that he should have bought at least a little of groceries.

The rooftop door creaked open, making Yugyeom shocked a bit.

"Hey man, when's break gonna start?" A raspy voice can be heard not far away from where Yugyeom is hiding.

"Seriously bro? Its the first day after autumn break and you're asking when's break?" The thick American accent replied.

"Ey, I didn't really wanna be here in the first place to be honest. How many years we have left before we go home?" A voice with small tone.

All of those voices sounded foreign to Yugyeom with English words slipping in the Korean sentence.

"My dad said that he sent me a PS5. I don't know how but he did it." The American accent speak again.

"Nice man! When did it arrive?"

"I have no idea, but lets hope the PS5 won't be fucked up if it came all the way from America" The conversation suddenly turns into Chinese.

"I'm Thai, but I definitely understand the swearing part." He laughed. "Alright then, let's see when we ge-"

"Hey, what are you guys doing here?" A familiar voice came.

"Relax man, we're just chilling here!" The Thai student replied.

"Just because you guys are foreigner, doesn't mean you guys can do anything you want to."

"Alright then, we'll go Mr. Perfect-Student-Model." He could feel the annoyance from the tone.

"I swear to god, these foreigners are acting like they can do anything. This Yugyeom kid is also nowhere to be seen, damn it."

Jinyoung. Yugyeom slowly fix his sitting pose but just freeze himself when he heard footsteps coming to him.

"Oh- Yugyeom-ssi? What are you doing here? You know that you can't be here during lunch. If you wanted to go to the rooftop, we have an accessible rooftop but not this one." Jinyoung stand in front of him.

"I, uh, I had no idea about that."

Jinyoung pull his hand and went back into the building. "Come on Gyeom, eating by yourself is never a good choice. I know socializing sucks, but it won't be if you social with the right people unlike those AmeriThaiKong foreigners."

Ameri-Thai-Kong?

Yugyeom was a little bit puzzled when Jinyoung mentioned it. "Doesn't matter, come hang out with me and my friends for once! You can leave anytime you want."

He felt hesitant but agreed since Jinyoung said he can leave anytime.

"Why weren't you at cafeteria?"

"I have few issues with cafeteria in middle school, so I didn't really like their lunch."

Jinyoung just nodded, giving a sign that he understands Yugyeom's reason. "Oh, Youngjae-ah!"

"Jinyoung-hyung! I'm getting strawberry milk for Jaebum, do you want anything?"

Jinyoung looks at Yugyeom and back to Youngjae. "Sure, I want home run balls. Also, bring Yugyeom with you!"

His eyes were widen when Jinyoung told Youngjae to tag Yugyeom along.

"Yugyeom? Are you a new student?"

"Er, kind of. I'm from class 1-2."

"Ah, you're a freshmen! I'm Choi Youngjae from class 2-2, nice to meet you!"

Yugyeom just smiled, not wanting to say a word. "Jinyoung were looking for you at lunch but you weren't at the cafeteria. Where did you go?"

"Oh, I was at the rooftop."

"Rooftop? What were you doing there? Do you smoke?"

Yugyeom quickly shook his head. "I was just eating my lunch."

"You could've joined us but its alright! Lets go to the school mart, they have a lot of milks!"

It was close to getting bad but eventually the day just went well.
