Chapter 1: Move on, Math

×Ryujin's p.o.v×

"This thing is getting harder and harder by the minute," I lament and pull my hair in frustration, "Stop looking for your X, Math! Just move on already!"

They all laugh as I collapse on the floor, grunting as I go on about how the hell algebra is supposed to help us in the future.

"Like, what the actual hecc?" Chaeyoung squints at the worksheet, "Who the eff buys 50 crates of mangos?"

I roll my eyes and say, "Math really needs to go and get a licensed  therapist. He always has problems he can't solve himself. Do we look like therapists to him?!"

"Hah," Yeji snorts, "If you were my therapists, my problems would double by the size of the Himalayas."

We hear a shuffle from one of the beds. "I'm sorry, gentlewomen," Lisa turns over in her bed, smiling sweetly at us, "It's nice enough for me to let you open the lights past my bedtime. Now will you bijjesh all shut it!" She yells and turns her back again, falling asleep immediately.

"Oof," Chaeyoung whimpers, "She sure is grouchy when she's tired, isn't she?"

"I heard that!"

"Sorry, Lisa!" I call back softly, and puts my finger to my lips, signaling all of us to decrease our volume.

"Hey," Chaeyoung opens up, careful not to be too loud, "Wanna hear a story?"

"About?"

"My exes."

We all slap our books shut and give her full attention. Chaeyoung is now sitting with her legs crossed, politely (this is uncommon), which means that this story is more interesting that it may seem.

"This is super random, y'know?" Yeji questions, "We went from math to this in a heartbeat."

"Shush, young one." I say, "Grandma Chae is opening up her knowledge to us."

"Gosh damn, Ryu." Yeji flicks my forehead and I back away in feigned fear, "How do people even think you're my girlfriend?"
"You effing bit the front of my head at the café. Teeth included."
"And you effing let me."
"See?"

We both laugh at the absurdity of their own actions and me and Chae join in. Yes, our friendship comes to the point where some sad people question our relationship. Lol, have they never had besties before?

"Okay, continue." We all focus back to Chae and she starts off.

"I have like, five exes."

"Wait, what?!"

"I know, I know," Chaeyoung rolls her eyes, "It's a bit much. But they're never serious, anyways. The last boyfriend I had was like, in seventh grade. And the whole relationship was a literal meme because it started out with the line 'I don't usually like fish'."

We all laugh at this one. The picture of sixth grade Chaeyoung flopping her way in an Ariel costume she once showed us comes to mind.

"And the first one? When was it?" I ask.

"Ngeh, it happened in ninth grade," Chaeyoung brushes it off, "I swear he had cooties."

"Eww." We chorus, earning a laugh from Chaeyoung herself.

"Aren't you gonna tell us their names?" Yeji digs, trying to get more info.

"I guess I can," Chaeyoung laughs, "It's not like we'll ever see them anyways."

She clears her throat, "The kid who liked my mermaid costume, the meme one, was called Woohyuk. Super sweet, honestly. I think I'll fall for him again if I see him again, and if he doesn't bring up that sentence, lol. The kid with cooties, Hansung. Cutest in my year when we were like, nine. My second and third boyfriend, Seungmin and Minhyuk. Seungmin was a little geeky and Minhyuk was a jock. Minhyuk was super cute, cuter than most, definitely, but we were eleven, unfortunately, and a week after we 'broke up' we were bestfriends again and I helped him give chocolate doughnuts to his crush. And my fourth ex..." her voice trailed off, "Honestly, I don't remember."

"You don't remember?" Yeji presses, not believing it.
"Poor him," I laugh, "By the way, not surprised. How come you don't try to keep in touch, though?"

"Who says? I still see them whenever I'm back home. We're all good with each other." Chaeyoung takes a sip from Yeji's bottle, "Can I have some?" She asks and has another sip. Yeji brushes it off, since she never really cared about sharing food.

"Logical explanation, for me, if we dated and broke up before we're 15, you're my childhood friend, not my ex." I comment, but with a laugh, "Not that I've ever dated, but still."

"Moral of the story, love lasts" Chaeyoung attempts to wink, "But it's not always forever."

I grin, knowing that the moral was meant for me, because we had a debate on how people should take an approach in knowing 'The One'. She won, obviously. I agreed at all her facts.

"Okay, fine." I smile, "Come on, kids, time for bed." I was kinda used to playing the mom in our friend group, "It's 12 a.m. already. We're waking up at 5 a.m. tomorrow. It's time for beauty sleep." I say as I snuggled into bed and the girls do the same.

Chaeyoung speaks up from behind her locker, "I wonder why it's called beauty sleep when we literally wake up looking like sasquatches."

We all have a small chorus of 'lol's before all of us are pretty much ready for bed. Even Chaeyoung finishes off her beauty routine (face cream, mist, some kind of liquid of refreshment whatever, dab dab some other things, a cookie, dab dab some more, and then sleep).

"Good night everyone!"
"Nite nite."
"Gudnitee."
"Sweet dreams!"
"Mphmjhd."

Yeji turns off the lights (because her bed is closest to the switch) and almost all of us fell fast asleep.

But a few minutes after lying down, I hear someone shuffling in their bed. The bed next to mine, to be exact.

It was Chaeyoung.

"Hey, what's wrong?" She shuffles for a few seconds before saying,

"Have you guys ever noticed that there's no letter 'a' in the numbers 1 till' 999?" She asks, epiphany all over her question.

"What do you mean of course there's the letter..." My voice trails off.

Dun dun dunnnn...

The dorm was silent for a moment before Yeji switches on the lights and shoots Chaeyoung a death glare.

"Eff you, Ryujin. Seriously, eff you."
