Seung Nyang walks up to her locker. As she turns the combination code on the lock, a fist suddenly slams into the lockers beside her.
Seung Nyang rolls her eyes, as she opens her locker. She already knows whose fist it belonged to.
"Yeon Hwa, what the hell do you want from me this time?" Seung Nyang says, without looking over.
At the corner of her eye, she sees Yeon Hwa smirking mischievously.
"I heard you and Ta Hwan had a one night stand. How did that go?" Yeon Hwa asks, as she crosses her arms.
Ta Hwan was the most popular boy in Daidu Yuan Secondary High. He came from an extremely rich and powerful family, just topping over their principal, El Temur's wealth. He was often named "Prince Ta Hwan" because of handsome looks, charming personality and his popularity rate in the city. Many girls like Yeon Hwa and even El Temur's only daughter, Tanashiri were crazy about him. However, Ta Hwan only had eyes for Seung Nyang, who he continuously tries to court, much to everyone's chagrin.
Seung Nyang, who shows absolutely no interest in Ta Hwan, scoffs, as she notices Yeon Hwa's sarcasm. "Tell Tanashiri that Ta Hwan and I had a blast last night. He kissed me with passion and embraced me ever so tightly. His body was smoking hot and his voice was so deep when he said 'I love you Nyang-ya!' Oh, I wonder how badly Tanashiri wanted to have a piece of that", Seung Nyang says coolly, as she tries not to puke at the disgusting thought.
Yeon Hwa's jaw drops at Seung Nyang description, before she quickly snaps back to her senses. "Ah! You little—!" she exclaims, but she instantly shuts up when Seung Nyang turns her head.
Seung Nyang smirks, as she narrows her eyes at Yeon Hwa. She takes a step closer and Yeon Hwa begins to nervously shake. Yeon Hwa takes a cautious step backwards, as Seung Nyang leans in close to her face.
"I advise you to stop following me or I'll shove my fist up your fucking throat", Seung Nyang says threateningly. She slams her fist against the lockers, her hand only inches away from Yeon Hwa's face.
Yeon Hwa is shaking like mad, quickly nodding her head in hopes to not getting beaten up by an angry Seung Nyang.
"And tell Tanashiri that I have nothing to do with Ta Hwan. He's all hers", Seung Nyang says, before backing off and walking towards her locker.
"Y-Yes!" Yeon Hwa exclaims, before sprinting off without another word.
Seung Nyang grabs her coat and shuts her locker. She heads out of the school, making her way to the bus stop when a familiar figure blocks her path. Seung Nyang, without looking up to see who it was, sternly tells the figure to back off.
"Where do you think you're going?" the figure says in an almost threatening tone.
"Home", Seung Nyang replies.
The figure grabs Seung Nyang's chin and forces her to make eye contact with him. Seung Nyang winces and angrily looks at a glaring Dangkise, the principal's eldest son and the classic fuckboy. He had piercing dark brown eyes, messy brown hair and a strong jawline. He was wearing a red muscle tee, his tattoos encircling his stiff biceps, denim blue jeans and a pair of red Air Jordan sneakers. He smelled heavily of marijuana as he leaned in closer to Seung Nyang, who struggled to free herself from his grip.
"You wanna come over to my place? I'll treat you well", Dangkise says, before cackling at his own imagination.
"Let go of me", Seung Nyang orders.
Dangkise drops his hand on Seung Nyang's chin, but quickly wraps his arms around her body, attempting to grope her.
Seung Nyang lets out a blood-curling scream, as Dangkise covers her mouth and tries to pull her into the parking lot.
"LET GO OF ME YOU SICK BASTARD!" Seung Nyang shouts, as he drags her closer to his orange Lambourghini.
Before Dangkise can open his car door, a black Dodge Challenger pulls into the parking lot with a deafening noise and screeches as it comes to a full stop in front of them.
A well-built man, who is about 6'5ft tall steps out of the vehicle, with a cigarette in his mouth. He is wearing heavy gold chains, a thick leather jacket and ripped black jeans. His eyes are hidden by a pair of dark shades and his piercings reflected brightly against the warm sunlight. He is bulkier than Dangkise and Seung Nyang can hear the latter gulp nervously. The man lifts his finger to extract the burning cigarette from his lips, as he keeps his eye on Dangkise the whole time.
"Ah, Dangkise… I rarely ever see you leave school so late. What's been keeping you from skipping class today?" the man says.
Dangkise begins to shake, as his grip on Seung Nyang loosens instantly.
"W-Wang Yu, w-what in the hell brings you here?" Dangkise asks, trying to his best to sound calm.
For a tough guy like Dangkise, who is El Temur's eldest son and the biggest bad boy in town, he is cowering in fear from the school's most intimidating rebel, Wang Yu, the 18-year old man who was raised in the sketchy streets of Goreyeo.
Wang Yu chuckles, as his taps his cigarette.
"Well you see, your father asked me to check up on you. Seeing that you weren't home, the poor old man asked me to turn the city upside down just to hunt down your loser ass. God forbid, who knew that you would be hiding here like a little mouth, trying to prey on a tiger. She's more than a match for you, pipsqueak", Wang Yu says, before he placed his cigarette back in his mouth.
Dangkise clenched his fists and grits his teeth. "Y-You…" he begins to say.
Wang Yu pats his chest, his chains cackling against one another.
"Try me, Dangkise", Wang Yu says, now with a deeper and darker tone in his voice.
Dangkise hesitates to step forward and when he decides to throw a punch, his phone begins to madly ring like an uncontrollable alarm clock. Growling in frustration, he takes out his phone and quickly answers it, as Wang Yu uses this moment to pull Seung Nyang to his side.
"Are you alright?" Wang Yu asks worriedly.
Seung Nyang nods back, before glaring at Dangkise accusingly. The two watch the principal's eldest son furiously scream into his phone and Wang Yu tries his best not to burst out laughing…because he knew that the other person on the line was Dangkise's younger brother, the jerk Talahai, who was a complete dumbass and all he did was do drugs and hook up with younger girls.
"Goddamnit fuck! I'll be there in 5 minutes! Yeah, shut the fuck up pussy ass!" Dangkise screams, before ending the call.
He takes one last glance at Seung Nyang and Wang Yu, before getting inside his car. Seung Nyang and Wang Yu watch Dangkise fire up his engine and roll out of the parking lot within seconds. In the distance, they can faintly hear the sound of police sirens chasing after Dangkise's Lambourghini.
Wang Yu looks back at Seung Nyang. "Did he hurt you?" he asks.
Seung Nyang shakes her head. "He didn't leave a scratch today. Well, he might've left a slight bruising from his grips earlier, but it's nothing", she replies, before she turns around and proceeds to walk away.
"Wait, Seung Nyang!" Wang Yu calls out.
Seung Nyang turns around to face Wang Yu.
"I'll drive you home", Wang Yu says.
"Okay", Seung Nyang replies back.
Moments later, they were on the road, driving back to Seung Nyang's apartment flat that was two miles away from their school. There was a slightly awkward tension between the two teenagers, as Seung Nyang busied herself by looking out the window, while Wang Yu shot a few worried glances at her here and there. Wang Yu attempted to ask Seung Nyang about her day a couple of times, but kept his mouth shut, worried that it would make things even more awkward between them. It almost seemed as if an hour passed when they finally reached the entrance of Seung Nyang's apartment. Wang Yu quickly got out of the car to open the door for Seung Nyang, but she was already out within seconds.
"Thanks for the lift", Seung Nyang says with an awkward half-smile.
Wang Yu smiled. "No problem", he replies.
Seung Nyang waves goodbye, before she turns around and leaves.
"Wait, Seung Nyang!" Wang Yu calls again.
Once again, Seung Nyang turns around.
Wang Yu tries to find his words. "U-Um, if Dangkise ever bothers you again, don't hesitate to let me know. I came here out of instinct today, I never thought I'd run into-" he says, but Seung Nyang interrupts him.
"Thanks for your help, Wang Yu, but I just want to let you know that we will be nothing more than just friends", Seung Nyang says.
The words hit Wang Yu as if someone punched him in the stomach. Normally he'd feel grateful when someone appreciates his help, but this time, he couldn't extinguish the pain he felt in his sinking heart. However, he pulls his best smile and shrugs off Seung Nyang's comment.
"I'll see you then", Wang Yu says.
Seung Nyang turns around and walks into her apartment, leaving a disheartened Wang Yu slouching against his car, feeling defeated.
Seung Nyang turns her key and unlocks the door to her apartment flat. She is greeted by her roommate and best friend, Hongdan.
"I didn't see you after school today. May I ask if something happened?" Hongdan asks politely.
Seung Nyang admired Hongdan. She was the one who remained as her best friend from the beginning of high school to senior year. Hongdan was a very kind, caring and sweet person, almost acting like a motherly figure to her. They both attended the same high school and would usually take the bus home together. She was a petite 17-year old with a round face, a sweet tooth and a bubbly personality. Her favorite things to do was studying and doing typical household chores. She was basically the opposite of Seung Nyang, but they both get along very well.
"Dangkise was up to his tricks again. Wang Yu scared him off and drove me home", Seung Nyang explains.
Hongdan frowned. "That nasty pervert never leaves you alone, doesn't he?" she remarks, as she sits down on the couch.
Seung Nyang scoffs. "He's a filthy piece of shit who goes to extreme measures just to get laid. Hell, he even tried to grope me in public and Wang Yu nearly ran him over", she says.
Hongdan bursts out laughing, as Seung Nyang places her bag on the kitchen table. The latter begins to search her backpack pockets for her phone, when she suddenly realizes it wasn't there. She proceeds to search her coat pockets, her pants and then her backpack again.
"I'm making spaghetti and meatballs for dinner tonight. Do you want anything else on it?" Hongdan asks, as she turns on the TV.
Seung Nyang doesn't quite hear her best friend, as she is too busy searching for her phone. She dumps her books all over the kitchen table and flips open the textbook pages to check if her phone is hiding inside.
Hongdan walks into the kitchen after hearing all the commotion and asks Seung Nyang if she's okay.
"I think I left my phone at school. I'm gonna go back and get it", Seung Nyang says.
"Wait but, school's closed already. You'll get in trouble for sneaking in…why don't we wait until tomorrow morning?" Hongdan replies.
Seung Nyang shakes her head. "My phone has all my private information and if that's erased, I'm screwed for life", she says, before throwing her coat back on. She grabs her bus pass, keys and boots before opening the apartment door.
Hongdan watches her best friend with a worried look. "What time will you be back?" she asks.
"Probably after 7:00pm. I'll be fine", Seung Nyang answers, as she checks the time on her watch. It's 5:45pm, which means if she takes the bus it'll take approximately 10 minutes to get to school and she'll have an hour to search around the entire building before catching the last bus at 7:00pm.
"By the way, can you put some chicken in my spaghetti? And make the sauce extra spicy for me please", Seung Nyang says to Hongdan, before shutting the door.
