"How did you do it", one of Jae-seong's classmates asked. "How many times do I have to tell you? I didn't even do anything", Jae-seong responded massaging her forehead. "That's so impossible", another classmate said. "Then the impossible happened", Jae-seong said lashing at them. "I'm sorry, please don't stress Jae-seong. We both need a break", Lucas said with a smile as he pulled Jae-seong up and exiting the room.
"I can't stand it anymore", Jae-seong said leaning against the wall. "Do you want to quit university? I mean we will only start training later", Lucas asked. "They'll eventually stop bugging us about it. I just hate the fact that they are acting so nice towards me now", Jae-seong said. "What do you mean", Lucas asked.
"Didn't you ever notice how they acted towards me before? I never understood why they were mean to me for no reason. They would always ignore me, hell even talk about me behind my back", Jae-seong said getting frustrated again. "Maybe it's because you're just drop dead gorgeous", Lucas asked which made Jae-seong punch him.
"What the hell", Jae-seong asked with a disgusted face. "Don't pretend like you aren't. Remember on our 1st year in high school? Valentine's day that school year? Guys lined up in the hallway just to individually give you their gifts", Lucas said which made Jae-seong smile remembering the memory. "The girls hated me big time because of that", Jae-seong said.
"Yeah! How about senior year when you and Mark ran for student council? Bunch of guys were spending money for your campaign", Lucas said. "They kept telling me it was a donation just so I don't have to spend that much money on it", Jae-seong added. "Exactly! Now, don't let them bring you down. We still have a great future waiting for us. Don't mind them", Lucas said smiling.
"Alright then", Jae-seong responded smiling as well. "Let's go back in then, our professor's already approaching", Lucas said. They then headed back inside and sat on their seats as the professor entered the room. "Alright, settle down. I have an announcement to make", he started off as the students quiet down.
"Next week, we will be having our retreat. There will be team building activities and will also serve as a time of reflection and opportunity to learn outside these four walls. The groups are already arranged beforehand and will be posted tomorrow on the bulletin boards. You're all grouped with other departments and seniors as well. This retreat will be held in Jeju Island. We encourage you all to attend as it will be for only 4 days and 3 nights", the professor announced which caused a fuss and had the whole room talking.
Jae-seong and Lucas knowing it already stayed silent and just looked at each other with worried looks. They thought of the same thing regarding their training and this retreat. They knew they can't miss training but they also knew that this retreat only comes on a rare occasion. Jae-seong gave Lucas a 'what do we do' look. Lucas just shrugged and gave back an 'I have no idea' look. They just sighed at the same time weighing their priorities in their minds.
Letters of consent were then handed out and the class started out normally. Jae-seong didn't pay attention to the lesson and focused on her phone. "Who are you talking to", Lucas asked taking a peek. "Ten and Taeyong", Jae-seong answered pushing Lucas away. "Why", he asked again. "To sort everything out. To know whether we should join the retreat or not", Jae-seong responded still focused on her phone.
