If May was already hectic, then June must be hell.

Every student in school was either crying over their studies or had ran out of tears since they used it all up in May. Hyora even heard multiple cases of students fainting during class, and she was grateful that it hasn't happened to her yet. But it was the last month before summer break, and once they finish the second week of July, they'll be free from the chains of school at last.

In the course of weeks after Baekhyun's birthday, he and Taeyeon didn't really made much progress in their so-called "relationship". In fact, their few conversations through text everyday have turned so rare that they're basically almost never talking. But Baekhyun was as patient as ever, especially when he once spotted Taeyeon snoozing in front of a mountain of books in one corner of the library. It would be inconsiderate of him to ask her more of her time.

Hyora, on the other hand, had made so much money it was insane.

On a busy Monday during her Chemistry class, she had excused herself to go to the bathroom, but was actually going to a secluded hallway near the Science laboratory where she had agreed to meet Oh Sehun, since that particular time in that particular area was always deserted.

As she approached her destination, she found Sehun pacing around in circles restlessly. His head shot up when he heard incoming footsteps and sighed in relief to see Hyora.

"Shit! What took you so long?" he complained, looking around in case of eavesdroppers.

Hyora rolled her eyes, zipping down her jacket to retrieve the folder she had successfully hidden inside. "My God, relax! No one's gonna catch us! And I couldn't just excuse myself immediately from class. We were discussing something important!"

Sehun ignored her and snatched the folder from her hands, immediately opening it to check the content. One look at it caused a pleased expression on his face, then he closed the folder and hid it inside his jacket like how Hyora did.

"It looks great! You're really talented."

"I know," she said dryly and held out her hand, palm up, just beside her skirt to be inconspicuous.

Sehun stared down at it like it was a baby alien.

"You haven't ever done this in your life, have you?" she snapped, shaking her hand a little. "Hurry up!"

Glancing sideways, Sehun stepped a little further to Hyora and discreetly passed the money down to her waiting hand, the latter quickly stuffing it in her jacket's pocket.

Sehun immediately took a few paces away from her, side-eyeing her. "Thanks."

"Thanks to you too," Hyora replied with a satisfied smile, delighted to obtain a fairly good amount for another customer's art project. "See you, Sehunnie!"
