13 Challenge between the four classrooms - 2

She got up and left the room, Daehyun followed her. Mijoo bought a soda and sat in the canteen. She was getting tired. Daehyun bought two cookies and passed one to Mijoo. 'I don't want to eat anything. But thanks for the cookie.' Daehyun came closer. 'You have to eat. I bet you didn't eat anything the whole day.' Mijoo laid her head on the table and closed her eyes for a minute. Daehyun walked around the table and squat in front of her. But mijoo felt his presence and kept her eyes shut. If she opens her eyes and see him in front of her, she might start crying.

Daehyun waited for her to wake up. 3 minutes passed by. 'Can you please go away, you are distracting me. PLEASE.' Daehyun didn't budge. 'I like it when you say the word "please". Somehow it sounds so satisfying to me.' Mijoo eyes closed, had a judging face on. He is driven me CRAZY!!! 'Why would you say something like that to someone who has a crush on you.' Daehyun stared. 'I don't know. Just felt like saying it.'

Era came just in time. 'Mijoo, you are here. I went to the art room and couldn't find you there. I brought some cookies for you. Mijoo got up and looked at Era. But Daehyun remained in the squad position. Era took a seat and not long after, Dina and Parl walked into the canteen. Dina who has a crush on Daehyun glared at Mijoo. Parl who is like the diva of class 1-B came and sat in front of Mijoo. Dina took the place next Parl. 'Say Mijoo, draw my portrait too. Please.' Daehyun felt disgust at this "please". 'Sure I can.' Parl clapped her hands. 'Thank you, sweetie. I'll bring my favorite clothes tomorrow, and we can get it started.'

The teacher came running to the canteen. 'Mijoo, there are two ladies asking for you. They want a portrait.' Mijoo stood up and faced the teacher. 'I'm coming. Era, gotta go. See you later. Bye.' Era waved her hand at Mijoo. Short after Mijoo left, Daehyun also took off. 'Gotta go too. Ladies, have fun.' Daehyun sprinted off out the canteen. He vanished.

Dina cursed under her breath. Parl looked at her in confusion. She must be thinking that Dina isn't one hundred percent up in there. Era ignored both of them and eat her cookie away.

At the end of the day. Everyone was exhausted. Mijoo packed her stuff, locked the art room and left school.

Day 2.

The teams had to exchange their positions. Daehyun left to bake cookies and Mijoo to wash cars until 1 pm. She'll take a break and go back to drawing. Before they start, Mijoo gave Daehyun's vest back. She took it home and had it washed. 'Are you sure you don't want to wear it for today?'

'I have my own cardigan with me. I'm okay.'

Let the car wash begin. This time the teachers had placed the audio set outside. The music blasting out of the speakers. The girls working really hard. There are so many cars that had lined up. Some of the customers went inside to buy cookies and to take a look around.

After some cars, Mijoo was getting tired. Her cardigan was wet and became heavy. Era was also washing cars. She suddenly looked at Mijoo with big eyes. 'Mijoo you t-shirt. Look down.' Mijoo looked down and saw two wet spots. Oh Gawd. That happened when she leand against the car. She quickly hide it. But she can't work like this. 'Should I call Daehyun and ask for his vest?' Daehyun's vest, that's it. 'No, it okay. I'll go myself and change quickly.'

Mijoo shoot inside the school building. She saw Toni placing the baked cookies on the counter. 'Toni, can you call Daehyun for me, fast.' Toni nodded his head. 'Eyy yo Daehyun. Mijoo here to see you.' Everyone looked at Toni.

Daehyun washed his hands and came out. 'Can I use your vest again, please?' Daehyun smiled. "Alright, pleeeaaase. It's upstairs in the room. Let's go.' Mijoo is never going to say please in front of him again. Now she has a weird feeling when she says it.

In the classroom, Daehyun grabbed the bag and pulled out the vest. Mijoo turned around and took off her wet cardigan. Daehyun tried to pass over his vest but Mijoo looked the other way. 'The vest?' Mijoo extended her arm without looking. Daehyun teased her. 'You need to turn around.' Okay, but you need to close your eyes.' Daehyun said okay, but did not do it. Mijoo turned around and saw that Daehyun was looking at her, to be precise, he looked down. He saw it...

'I told you to close your eyes.' Mijoo turned in a flash. She quickly wore the vest and zipped it all the way up and run away. Daehyun remained in the classroom. He got confused for a second. Why did he look down? Idiot!!! She must be thinking that he is a pervert. Although she said something like that in their first phone call.

Mijoo came back and helped the others.

It was 1 pm. Mijoo took her break and went back to drawing. There were more customers then yesterday. Parl also came and had her portrait drawn. She kept bothering Mijoo to turn around the drawing so she could see the progress. Never did she sit still for more then 5 minutes. She ate Mijoo's energy away.

And finally the second day also came to an ending. Everyone walked out like a bunch of zombies. Some had to run to catch their bus. Mijoo was sitting in the canteen. Her mother was in the neighborhood and called her. So Mijoo is waiting for her mother to pick up her from school. It was dead silence. She laid her head on the table and closed her eyes until her mother came. Mijoo slowly drifted off.
