[Ding Dong ~ Dang-Dong ~]
””
Gazing down through the , Rai watchedthe droves of children drift out of the building as they traveled somewhere
”Uhaaam”
[ttududug]
”Ah, ya, ya, ya~! The side effects of that headlock fronim earlier”
”shi+nwoo, are you okay?”
”Huh? Oh yeah Haha ~ h to worry about”
Even though shi+nwoo said he was alright, Suyi and Yuna couldn’t tear their guilt-filled eyes froed his neck
“How’s this your fault? Sure, he juet up, did he have to pull that stunt? I nearly had a heart attack because that guy knocked over his chair”
“I was surprised as well Although just for an instant, I had thought that he had dared to purposely throw his chair to the ground during teaching time e receive instruction Of course, about you, such accidental behavior is typically understandable”
Regis agreed with Ikhan in a similar tone
shi+nwoo slurred over his shahIkhan looked at everyone else and spoke,
Yoona and Suyi nodded at his proposal
As the group started to discuss the day’s lunch, shi+nwoo suddenly sat down on the desktop and crossed his legs in a shaky stance He raised his chin and gazed down at them ostentatiously with his arms folded across his chest
At his call, Ikhan, Suyi and Yoona stopped talking about their dining options and turned towards shi+nwoo as did Regis and Seira Rai’s eyes also left theand wandered to him
Ikhan exhaled a long sigh at shi+nwoo’s excessively arrogant attitude
“Hu~ Today, it’s my treat”
“Really?”
“Yeah, Ikhan, this hyung will take care of you”
“Oooh~ So you came into an ample supply of money now?”
At their words, shi+nept his hair aside and gave an oily smile
“How displeasing This is not worth any concern”
Contradictory to the perturbed htly bowed his head toward Rai with courtesy
“”
Rai stood and iis and Seira followed him, and the other kids also walked away from shi+nwoo
“Yeah We should”
“Oh?”
“Ey~ What’s up with you? I’ a little prank! Haha~”
“Ugh! What are you doing? I almost fell!”
“Yeah, I know, get off Now!”
Despite Ikhan’s disconcerted shouts, shi+nwoo still refused to let go Laughing, he clung to Ikhan with both arms, and the noise of their uproar reverberated down the hallway
The two boys hter
With a long sigh, Regis closed his eyes for a ht next theh they hadn’t been in their company at all
Accustomed to the attention from the other students by now, shi+nwoo reeously lead them to the counter side
S confidently to his friends, shi+nwoo reached into his pocket
At that moment, embarrassment crept in shi+nwoo’s voice
“What?”
“Huh? That’s weird…”
Suyi commented shi+nwoo’s behavior
“Eh?”
Ikhan’s expression turned incredulous as shi+nwoo absent-mindedly muttered his answer to himself
“You didn’t lose it by any chance?”
“That’s not it Oh!”
shi+nwoo instantly looked up as if the thought had just come to him
“I didn’t take mine with me since you said you’d pay, shi+nwoo,”
Ikhan grumbled
without it Usually, I always have it with me Why not now of all times!”
Yuna muttered, too
[tap]
Ikhan asked The next instant, an idea flashed through his mind, and he continued swiftly,
[Nod]
“Ooh~ Really?”
“Come on No you don’t, Rai I incited you to do this from the start, so let’s do it like this If you lend me the money noe return to the classroom-”
Rai silently interrupted shi+nwoo’s wordshis hand A siue any further
“Fair enough Then let’s choose our meals”
Excited about their choices, the children investigated the menu board, but at that moment-
“Huh?”
“What are you saying?”
[One of the most popular noodle dishes in South Korea]
“Raht to choose”
They fell silent under his glare
[Gulp~]
“Y-Yeah Raood”
“E-Exactly”
“Suyi, what sort of ramen shall we have?
“We would like seven orders of classic style ramen”
But Regis was already placing the order
Unable to put up a resistance, the children could only stare blankly at Regis The woman behind the counter who took the order shook her head
