This is what feeling belonged felt like, I thought to myself, shielding my face from the sunlight while I sat by the spirit house. I had finished burning a few pieces of food for the old couple that occupied it and I huffed, bundling my hair together and tying it up in a simple ponytail. I stood up, stretching and arching my back, not knowing where the rest of my... friends were. Baekhyun, Sehun, and Matthew were by the entrance of the school the last time I saw them before I excused myself when I heard Kai yell out for me.

"Noona! Bora Noona!" His loud voice was enough for everyone to turn and I squinted, Kai bounding towards me a little bit too energetically for a Tuesday morning. Exam season was over and everyone was enjoying the last few weeks of the school semester before the break ended. At the moment, people simply came to school to hang out with their friends and I could already see clubs begin to clean out their rooms and prep them for the new batch of kids who would come for the orientation.

I raised an eyebrow at Kim Kai, taking in his tan skin and his bright smile, forgetting how it was that day when he still wanted to lock us up in the tenth-floor girls' bathroom. Kai grabbed my arm, looping his arm through mine naturally before turning to me, beaming in pride as if he did something amazing.

"I did it."

"What?" I asked, blinking rapidly.

"I did it!" He said proudly. "I registered us as a club—"

"What?"

"To be fair, Noona. They said we need to have at least eight members, but we'll have time to find members later." Kai whipped out a paper that he had filled out, both of us heading towards the high school center. "We'll know by today if the student council agrees."

"What exactly did you say it was?" I asked, Kai's eyes twinkling. Made no sense that he would put down the club as a "ghost ascending" club.

"The Bracelet Club. Charity for those who are ignored," he said as if he had thought about it very carefully. "Oh, Suho hyung! He must have got the request, Noona."

Kai's voice had dropped into a whisper and I saw Suho heading towards us with a paper in hand. He lifted it to show that he got it, his eyes settling on me curiously. I have never hidden the fact that I could see ghosts and rumors traveled fast in EXO High—while some people saw me as the person who "reformed" AP Business, some thought I did voodoo and changed Oh Sehun and Kai into different people.

But rumors were just rumors and I earned more respect than hate, especially with Suho on my side.

"Kai, I saw the registration paper of your club." Suho began, showing both of us the paper that had Kai's scrawly handwriting on it and Kai tightened his arm around mine, narrowing his eyes at Suho. "Who exactly is Matthew?"

"You put Matthew—"

"Matthew is the foreign student that is always in the library." Kai butted in. "You wouldn't know him, he's so quiet... sometimes, it's like he doesn't exist."
