The weather was off, it didn't seem any different to the girl. Her brown hair flew back, her black roots started showing after six months of dyeing her hair. Her brown pupils looked side to side, noticing that everyone had left the hallway. She continued to walk until rain started pouring outside.

She knew she didn't bring an umbrella, sighing as she went to look at the school's bulletin board. Her fingers touching the flyers that were pinned. Her eyes stumbled upon two flyers.

She squinted her eyes as she read the flyers. Her eyes darted between the two, letting out another sigh, she took a picture of both flyers. She needed to join a club, in order to get a decent grade for her extracurricular activities. She hated sports and didn't want to join an academic club that'll stress her out in the end.

"DNYL or Ridin'?", Sera questioned herself as she looked out the school's window, seeing that the rain wasn't going to stop any time soon. She shrugged as she headed towards her locker. "I don't need their love"

Sera opened her locker and got her books and placed them in her bag, then closing her locker and locking it. Not noticing the letter in her messy locker, she left and headed towards the main entrance. Her hands held the straps of her bag as she stared outside to see to the rain.

"Hey Sera, what're you doing here?", a voice from behind her asked. She turned to see her one and only tutor in English. She smiled and faced the boy. "Nothing much Mark, what about you?"

"Well, Ms. Yoon asked me to fix the club room since it was starting to get messy", he simply replied, looking outside and back to me. "You don't have an umbrella?"

"Well, Mr. Lee, would I still be here if I had one?", the girl said sarcastically. Mark chuckled as he gave his bag to the girl, who held it in her arms. "I have an umbrella and a car, I'll drive you to your house"

"Thanks, I guess", she muttered.

Sera wasn't the closest to Mark, but she did enjoy the times that he would help her out with her English homework and essays. Remembering the flyer, her eyes glued to Mark who was holding the umbrella as they walked to his car.

"Hey, can I join your club?", Sera asked, waiting for his reaction. His eyes travelled to the girl's eyes, wide and shocked. "I mean, are you heartbroken?"

"Yeah", she simply replied, which led Mark to think. He shrugged and took out his keys, opening the car and escorted me in. He went to the driver's seat and started the engine. "You have to email us why you want to join the club, then I'll think about it"

She hummed and looked out to the gray sky, thinking about the other club she saw, Ridin'.
