After another fun weekend together, the five boys arrive early at school. They meet in the garden as they usually do. Lately, it has been more and more dangerous for them to wait outside the school for each other. Passerbys shout derogatory words at the students for no apparent reason. One woman once threw a coffee at a female student wearing a white shirt and stained her shirt brown. Luckily the coffee was cool and not hot.
"The world is kind of scary nowadays," Yeonjun starts.
"Yeah, I was walking to school and two adults just starting having a fist fight right in front of me!" Kai exclaims.
"It's ok Kai, we'll protect you," Taehyun smiles.
"I ship it," Soobin chuckles, and Taehyun throws Soobin a glare.
"To be honest, I'm surprised the city has been doing anything about it. They should at least set a curfew," Beomgyu speaks up.
"Yeah, at least our school has a fence so random people can't come in. Otherwise, I wouldn't feel safe here either," Taehyun adds.
"True, speaking of the fence, did you hear what happened to Ms. Kim?" Yeonjun suddenly butts in.
"No, what happened?" Sooobin asks.
"Her entire fence got knocked down in the storm yesterday!" he shouts and starts to laugh.
"Really? That's hilarious," Kai laughs.
"I heard her telling another teacher that they fell like dominoes," Yeonjun adds through laughter.
The rest of the boys crack up and share stories of their teachers until it is time for class. The boys depart with smiles as they head to their respective classes. The day passes by as normal. The five boys eagerly wait until the lunch period where they can see each other again. When lunchtime finally arrives, the five boys practically race out of their classrooms to escape the tediousness of the class. They meet at their usual table and start to chat about how their day has been going.
"I can't believe Ms. Jeon," Kai moans out and bangs his head on the table.
"What did she do?" Soobin asks between bites of bread.
"She gave me a huge science packet due tomorrow," he cries out and the rest of the table laughs.
"I got the same packet, Kai," Yeonjun chuckles.
"Me too."
"Me three"
"Me four."
Kai looks at the four boys incredulously. He shakes his head and huffs out in annoyance.
"How come you guys aren't as upset as I am?" he asks and the four boys laugh again.
"It's not that difficult, Kai, it's basically a bunch of easy problems," Taehyun laughs.
"You guys are a bunch of je-"
"HELP ME!" a scream is heard throughout the lunch area and all heads whip towards the source.
A guy is panting out gasps of air and is holding onto the door.
"What's wrong?" a girl asks near him.
"My friends...body...behind the school...blood...dead..." he wheezes out before collapsing to the floor.
The students sit frozen in fear at the news they just heard, the teachers and some of the boy's friends come over to see if he's ok
"What the hell?" Yeonjun asks and gets up.
"Come on guys, let's go check it out," Beomgyu asks and gets up too.
