"hello miss choi yerim and im yeojin, your dads have called you for a meeting, right now." mr. jeffers, the personal bodyguard of yerim and yeojin for today has told the two girls that were carrying shopping bags and drinking some milk tea.

"another meeting?!" yerim was frustrated by the sudden notice. her dad has been calling her for meetings, asking if she can accompany him. luckily, yerim was a good girl so she always went. meanwhile yeojin... "awe! i was supposed to buy new heels!!" yeojin groans while frowning.

"maybe there will be good news, let's go!" yerim still kept positive amidst the disturbance in their shopping. yerim holds yeojin's hands as she whines and drags her to their car so they can go, "just for a few minutes please" she pouts but yerim just laughed and continued to walk to the parking lot.

they arrived in the parking lot and went inside the car. the two sat in the backseat with hands still holding each other.

"what do you think will my dad tell us" yeojin faces yerim that was still sipping some of her milk tea, looking outside her window "hm?" yerim who wasn't paying attention looked at yeojin, "what did you ask again?" yeojin rolls her eyes, "what do you think would my dad tell us?" she asks the question again.

"hmm... random business stuff again..." she pauses to think. "i hope it will be a business trip though..." yerim looks down.

"WAH! A BUSINESS TRIP! I HOPE SO TOO!" yeojin hopes excitingly. yerim raises her chin and looks at her. then, they talk about what could possibly happen.

after the ride, they arrived at yeojin and her family's mansion. they got off the car and walked inside the ginormous house. they were greeted by yeojin's cousins who were twins, youngmin and nayeon.

"hello youngmin oppa and nayeon eonni!" the two girls chorused as they wave their hands as a greeting. the twins smiled and youngmin said, "follow us girls!"

"are you sure about this, the two are—" mr. heorim was about to say something but it was cut off by im yeojin barging the door open really loudly.

"hELLO APPA!" yeojin spreads her arms and wraps it onto his dad's for a warm hug. his dad hugs back and pats her back, "y-you may now sit yeojin-ie" he tells her and the smaller follows the order. meanwhile, yerim just smiled at her dad and his dad smiled back.

"so about our sudden meeting. . ." mr. im became more serious than before, holding his hands and rests them in the table. mr. heorim just looks at him and the girls nervously, cold sweat falling from his skin. "we finally decided that. . . it is time to—" mr. heorim finally spoke.

"time to??" yeojin, who is impatient asks.

"it's time to go to school." mr. im adds the last words. yerim and yeojin gasps and the same time. then seconds after, they exchanged glances.

"did you just hear what I heard?" yerim faces yeojin who still has her jaw dropped. "yes. . ." she answers after facing yerim back. another minute of staring at each other, their faces lit up and their eyes formed crescent shapes like the moon, they were smiling.

"we're going to school!!" yeojin squeals and yerim joins her. they held hands and yerim was so excited that she accidentally squeezes it. "ouch!" yeojin felt pain but yerim quickly responded and rubbed it softly, "sorry sorry!"

"I can see that you two are so excited and I don't intend to interrupt you all but you girls need to eat, like really" mr. heorim tells them and they agreed. the two families made their way to the dining room and sat at the fancy table. yerim and yeojin chatters while they wait for the food and minutes later, the food came and the maids served them. crab and corn soup, sizzling steak, fried and normal rice and some korean side dishes, it made their mouth water and their eyes shine. it was like a mini feast to celebrate the news.

they prayed and thanked the food then partook in the dinner. yerim was happily chewing the meat while yeojin offered a bowl of the crab and corn soup to yerim. she grinned and nod as a sign of gratitude.

"here! have this~" yerim handed a spoonful of mashed potato that yeojin always loved since they were kids. "like the good old days~" yeojin received it with her mouth and ate it, yerim watching her with adoration.

fifteen solid minutes were spend, they did not chatter for they really enjoyed the food and everyone minded their own business. it was time for dessert, yeojin requested pudding and cupcakes. his dad ordered the maids and while waiting, they decided to talk about the whole school matter.

"so what will be the school like?? what kind of school? where would it be?" curiosed frog yeojin asked numerous of answers that made the two fathers smile as they were relieved that sending them to high school wasn't a bad idea at all.

"yeah, what are we going to do there??" yerim joins the conversation. the two fathers look at each other, mr. im nods as approval that he will say the details.

mr. heorim breathes in and faces the kids,
"do you two remember when we told you that there was something hidden inside you?" he asks and the two became more interested, "yes why??"

"you two have magic that is yet to discover by you and you will study in bloque high, a school for the blessed to train yourselves."
