"Lee Junsu Oppa?" Sora asked with a surprised look on her face.
The handsome man was none other than Lee Junsu, the elder brother or Yi Kyung and the owner of LMK Company.
"W...what are you doing here?" Han Sora stammered.
With a grin on his face, Lee Junsu moved further towards her and asked "Shouldn't I be the one asking you this question?"
Seeing his closeness, Han Sora blushed and took a step back. She again stammered. "I..I.. err.. I.... told you right... Yi Kyung called me over to teach him..."
"To teach?" He asked suspiciously.
Sora gave a nod. She then looked inside the house and asked "Can I come in?"
"Ohh, yeah... Come inside." Lee Junsu stepped aside and allowed her to come in.
Han Sora entered inside the house and she looked around. Nothing much changed inside the house. It was just the same as how it was in her childhood photos. She stood still with a big smile on her face.
"Just you wait, Han Sora.. I will teach you a lesson tomor.... Hyung(1)??" Yi Kyung who was ranting and cursing Han Sora under his breath was descending down the stairs when he saw his brother. He immediately stopped blabbering and looked at him surprised.
"Hyung, What are you doing her....errr... HAN SORA? YOU CAME?" As Yi Kyung came down the stairs to speak to his brother, he saw Han Sora staring at the house and smiling blankly. He immediately screamed out loud in disbelief.
He felt like he was getting shock on shock today... First, his unexpected brother's arrival and now, Han Sora coming up to his house... He wondered if Sora actually told his elder brother the reason for coming to his house or not... If his brother was to know, today, Yi Kyung was a dead meat!
"I'm sorry... I forgot to inform you. I was just surprised to see Junsu Oppa here..." Sora said before standing beside Yi Kyung. She stood beside him and said "C'mon, let us not waste our time. Because of you, I didn't even open my book until now..." She looked up at Yi Kyung and held his arm.
"Let us go!" She said again as she saw him staring blankly at his elder brother.
Sora shook him by his hand and said "What is wrong? Why are you still? You want me to teach you or no?" As she saw no movement in Yi Kyung, she again opened her mouth to speak but before that she heard Lee Junsu ask.
"How about I teach you both?"
"You will teach us, Junsu Oppa?" Sora looked at Junsu bewildered. It really was unexpected for her to be tutored by Lee Junsu.
Lee Junsu was a student who was an ace in all the subjects. He was the topper of his school and he completed his studies from Korea University - The most prestigious university of Korea. So, obviously, who was gonna miss the chance of getting tutored by a student who was the topper in everything?
For sure, Han Sora didn't wanted to miss that opportunity. She instantly agreed with a big yes!
As Yi Kyung heard her answer, he looked at her dumbfounded. "Ehh? WHAT?" He asked in utter surprise.
Han Sora looked at him with a disgusted look on her face. She mischievously scolded him "What, What? You know how good your brother is so, it will be very good if we are tutored by him.. I don't wanna miss a chance like this, So, I'm up for it! If you don't wanna join, then don't! STUDY BY YOURSELF!" At last she threatened him by saying that she won't be teaching him anymore..
She thought that it was the best thing to do because if a person is completely reliable on you for teaching and at last the one who is supposed to teach walks away... the person becomes very mutilated. And beside, Sora knew that he was to agree with her in one way or the other..
She didn't know why Yi Kyung didn't wanted to be tutored by his brother...
But after getting tutored by Lee Junsu himself... Sora realized why he was against it!
She was regretting on accepting Junsu's offer, because while teaching Lee Junsu was very strict and cold... He wasn't angry towards her but he was angry towards Yi Kyung....
And that was what made her heart break. She felt bad to put Yi Kyung into such trouble.... For every answer, Yi Kyung used to get a beating on his head... And for every right answer, he used to get another set of tough questions which unfortunately again led him to being beaten by his elder brother.
After solving her own set of questions, Sora looked at Yi Kyung emotionally. As she saw him rubbing his forehead and solving the questions, she felt really bad...
She stretched her hand to touch his head and just as she did that, she heard Junsu's strict tone. "What are you doing, Sora?"
At this strict voice of his, even Han Sora started to quiver. Her hands trembled and she kept them on her lap. With a stammer, she answered "N..nothing! I'm just...done!"
"You are?"
"Yes!"
"Show me."
Under his order, Han Sora lifted her book to show Junsu the answers. As Junsu started checking the answers, Han Sora stared at Yi Kyung worried.
She diverted her eyes as she saw him turning his head to look at her. She couldn't find the courage to look into his eyes because of this.
Yi Kyung looked at the time in his wristwatch and kept the book on the table. When Lee Junsu looked at him, Yi Kyung answered "Umm.. Hyung! It is late... Han Sora should go now. So, I will go and drop her home." He got up and stretched his hands towards Han Sora to pick her up.
Han Sora blinked at him confused. She saw him winking at her and she understood what it meant. She held his hand and stood up. Cleaning her clothes, she took her bag and said "Yes, Junsu Oppa. I should be leaving now. My parents will be worried if I will reach home late..."
Yi Kyung wanted her to play along with his act and he was happy that she was playing along with him. He pressed on her hand and Sora looked at him again confused.
Yi Kyung mouthed an inaudible 'Thank You' and Sora reddened. She looked down embarrassed.
Lee Junsu took his brother's book in his hand and checked... "You haven't completed solving your set, right?" He asked with an are-you-kidding-me-type of look..
"Umm... well... err.. Hyung, I..I will do..."
"Have you or haven't you?"
Seeing his brother's deathly glare, Yi Kyung gave up. With a sigh, he answered "I haven't. But after I drop her home... I will complete it."
Hearing that, Lee Junsu stood up and took the bag from Han Sora. With the same cold look on his face, he passed the book to his brother and ordered "Complete your questions and I will drop her home."
Hyung (1) - A Korean word used by younger brothers to refer to their elder brothers... Just like Unni which is referred by younger sisters to call their elder sisters.
