“Jonghyun? How about me?”
“Ah, such a good senior..”
“I’m good at cooking too!”
"haha.."
Why on earth would this person act like this? And he even came into the break room. Did he rent the break room? He's really talkative. Is he usually this talkative?
“Ah, I don’t really talk much~ It’s because Jonghyun came that I became so talkative~”
“Ah... I see.”
"Where were we? Oh, right. I'm a good cook! So, do you want to eat ramen at my house today? I can make anything for you..."
“Haha, there are students too, so I’ll stop here.”
“Hey, students are important, but love is just as important~”
Haha. I don't plan on getting married yet.
“Oh, but I didn’t ask Jonghyun’s age. Jonghyun, what is your age and what university did you go to?”
"Oh? I'm 26 this year. I graduated from SS University..."
“Oh, by any chance, are you a student from SS University, class of 2013?”
“Oh, yes.”
"Wow, this is fate! Who knew we'd be in the same school! I'm a freshman at SS University!"
Ah... I see. You were our senior. I don't think I've ever met you, but you were my senior. So this is why the household survey is so difficult.
“Oh, I see.”
“Oh, that’s why! Come meet me sometime.”
“What are you two doing here?”
Oh, Savior Kang Hye-won. But what's going on here?
“Oh, since we’re both math teachers, let’s talk a little bit...”
"Teacher Noh Ji-seon. It seems like Teacher Jong-hyun is having a hard time. Why don't you just leave now?"
‘Oh my...’
Oh my, I can hear Teacher Jiseon's inner thoughts from here. It's scary. But is Teacher Kang Hye-won the head teacher? Teacher Jiseon can't say anything either. She has a quick temper. I guess I should follow her.
“Oh, just a moment. Teacher Jonghyun, please stay for a moment.”
“Oh, yes.”
“Why is Teacher Jonghyun staying?”
Teacher Jiseon asks angrily. "Shivering. It's really scary being here. Seriously."
"I wanted to talk about our future work and such. We didn't talk about work earlier, only personal matters. Is that a problem?"
“...Okay. I’ll go out. See you later, Jonghyun.”
“Huh...huk. Yes..”
After Ji-seon left for a moment, the awkward situation between her and Hye-won began again. While both were silent, Hye-won spoke first.
“Teacher, be careful.”
"yes?"
"I told you to be careful, teacher. I'm 28, and I keep saying I'm still a virgin. If I ever approach you in a personal way, block me immediately."
“Oh, you are our senior.”
“I’m also a freshman at SS University, so listen to me and block me.”
“Oh, yes, senior.”
No, why, even though you're my senior, no one knows? Is it because we're in different departments? Oh, I don't know. I guess things will work out somehow. For now, I just have to live my life as impenetrable as possible.
"Well, since it's a pre-registration job, the math teacher probably won't have much to do. Even if he were to, it'd be... maybe checking on the kids who don't show up? There are a few kids who never show up, so I'll give you a list of those in the principal's office after the freshman orientation."
“Are those kids currently idol trainees or active idols?”
"That's right. Just know that much for now. I don't have much else to say. Just remember this. Stay away from Teacher Jiseon. You get it, right? SS University is a prestigious school, so I think you understand."
We got up from the table like that. Oh my, I almost died. Who knew Teacher Hyewon was my senior too? Oh, did she pick me because we were from the same university? Oh, I don't know.
Anyway, Teacher Hye-won and I got up from our seats and Teacher Hye-won went up to the central teachers' office. I also thought it was time to go out, so I headed towards the stairs to go out when Teacher Ji-seon suddenly surprised me.
“Kwang!”
“Oh! Oh, it’s Teacher Jiseon.”
"Oh, why aren't you surprised? That's enough. Teacher Jonghyun, everything Teacher Hyewon said was a lie. You got that, right?"
"yes.?"
“Do you understand?”
“Oh, yes.”
No, what do you want me to do? What on earth did I do wrong?
“First, give me your phone number.”
Then he hands me his phone. Ah, normally I would just say sorry, but this person goes to the same school as me and is my senior. There's nothing I can do. If you do this from the beginning, you'll get caught. Think carefully, Kim Jonghyun.
“...here.”
“Oh... this is the phone number.”
Then he makes a phone call. Oh, I'm so annoyed. I dialed something weird.
“......Mr. Jonghyun?”
“Oh, I think I hit it wrong. I’ll hit it again.”
Oh my, I'm scared to death. What should I do with this person's short temper? Then I gave him my phone number, and when I called, it vibrated in my pocket. Only then did he smile, as if satisfied, and turn around to leave. What am I going to do with my school life now?
-----
I just went outside. It was such a shame, but it seemed like Min-gi had already been dragged away by another teacher. Haha, what a pitiful kid.
“Did you all have a good tour?”
“No. Minhyun and I have already been through it, and Minki wants to see it.”
“Most of the teachers here are young women, so they have a strong personality haha..”
‘Jeeeeing’
A vibration comes from Aaron's pocket. Oh, no way.
“Oh, hello Seoyeon.”
‘I told you to call me Laura. Call me back.’
“Oh, right, that’s right… Hi Laura...”
"Huh! You said you came to school today! Why didn't you come to our office?"
This place is scarier than I thought. As I was doing that, I felt a vibration, too.
Teacher Jiseon: Be sure to contact me when you get home ^^ For sure ^^
Ah, school life is already going to be hard... Then, Dongho caught me.
“Over there. Look over there.”
“No, why? Wait a minute. Those kids....”
“You noticed it too.”
Three kids. Those kids. The ones I saw in front of the club. They were the same kids. Three girls with almost identical faces. It was them.
