Chapter 38 - Dogs And Gifts
After another half an hour, he finally received the text he was waiting for. He finally got a message from Jung-hwa. The Star Batch's drama was finally complete and their classmates were meeting at backstage. He took off the earbud he had and kept his hand out, asking Hea-Jung for the other.
"What the time is already up?" She asked with a smile. He just nodded and took the earbud from her. Picking up the bag he brought with his costume inside, he started walking towards the auditorium, with Hea-Jung following closely behind.
As they reached the auditorium entrance, they noticed a batch of students coming out. All of them looked stylish and were all laughing like they already passed the exam. Joon-won instantly knew this was the Star Batch students who completed the exam. They were not even staying back for their results.
The institute was giving the results after their Batch exam was completed and if they wanted to know about their score, then the Star Batch had to sit through their drama too. But it looked like they didn't care about them. Ignoring them, he continued towards the auditorium until he heard someone shout.
"Senior Hea-Jung, is that you?" A male voice called out to them. Joon-won smiled a little as he heard the footsteps behind him stop. He continued towards the auditorium, not looking back.
"Oh, little doggy. It's you. Yes, I'm going to watch the next drama." She responded.
"Oh, Senior, our drama is already over. You missed it. Next is the poor bastard's drama. Where is Senior Hae Yongsun? Is he not with you?" As the Star Batch students got closer to her and a female asked.
"Oh, I know your drama is over. I saw a bit of it and left immediately. It was a nasty drama. No one acted even a bit good, and it wasn't worth my time. I came here to watch the drama which is happening now. So you guys continue and enjoy, I'll be on my way." Joon-won couldn't help but chuckle a little as he heard her indifferent remarks.
It completely shocked the group when they heard her remarks about their drama. They thought the Senior was there for their group and wanted to tell her it was already done. But it seemed like she knew and didn't come for their drama at all.
The man in the middle who originally called her out gritted his teeth and said, "Senior, what in that low-grade drama coming next made you think it was worth more time than ours?"
Hea-Jung, at this point, was getting very irritated as she noticed Joon-won was already making his way inside the auditorium. Her face became cold, and she said, "Hey little doggy, know your place. I responded just now because you know the big doggy, Hae Yongsun. I don't need to explain myself when I say it's shit. If it wasn't for your family, you wouldn't even pass the exam. Do you think I don't know that script was written by none of you and you hired someone else to do it for you? Even if the next drama is shit, they have at least one person who acts better than all of you combined. That's enough for me to attend the drama. So now go away before I make your group regret your life."
She turned around and shouted towards Joon-won who reached the auditorium entrance, "Little brother, wait for me. Your Senior got stopped by a few dogs on the road. I still need to tell you something before you go in." And ran towards him leaving a pale group of students.
Everyone one of them watched as the Senior they greeted completely disregarded them and humiliated them before teaching them their place. They never thought she would suddenly react in such a way, especially the youth she called Little doggy. He was someone who knew Hae Yongsun and hence got to know her. But when she responded like that and humiliated him he could only look down and grit his teeth.
Joon-won sighed when he heard her shout just as he thought he escaped from her. He heard all she said and he only shook his head at how blunt she was. She didn't seem to care about the after-effects of her words.
He went inside and waited for her, not turning back. He wanted to hear what she had to say. After a few seconds, she rushed in panting and looked around to find him. She saw him standing to the side and said, "Little brother, you are the only one who made me run like this after a very long time. How could you do this?"
He glanced at her panting face and said, "Then you should have just stayed with that group instead of running here. It looked like they respect you a lot,"
"Stay with those dogs? I would rather go back home. All of them know nothing but lick my feet." she hissed at them. Joon-won didn't respond to her comment and continued to look at her.
"Well, anyway, I asked you to stop for a reason. Didn't I tell you I'll get you a gift yesterday? The gift came, but it depends on you whether you would get the gift or not. So act your best and not like yesterday. If you do then you will get a satisfactory gift. I promise." she held her already bountiful chest out and said proudly.
He looked at her and said, "Alright, I'll try to do my best then. But it better be a good gift, or else you will not follow and disturb me like these past few days"
Hea-Jung didn't respond but only grinned showing her confidence making him raise an eyebrow Without saying anything else both went the opposite directions in the auditorium.
