It'd be the first school day that Danah found out Sheep was Jungwon. She was rather excited, although she was having the worst hangover in the world.

Her head was resting on her school desk, sighing in awe. Last night, she was drunk out of her mind to the point she didn't know how she got home.

She didn't even try to think of the possibilities, only Jungwon was on her mind.

She gets snapped out of her daze when her desk gets loudly smacked by a ruler. "Ms Choi, have you been drinking as well?!" the principal exclaims.

"No! What makes you think that?!" she tries to coolly play it off, but it was failing miserably. Her eyes were reddened and her face was puffy, plus she could barely keep herself awake.

Mr Bang squints his eyes, leaning towards Danah to which she awkwardly backs away. "Your eyes tell," then he begins sniffing her. "And you smell like alcohol."

Around her, her four friends were in their own seats, sulking. I guess they got found out too. Minji rolls her eyes towards Wonyoung and she just shrugs.

"Young ladies, I expected so much more from you!" he begins lecturing them. The students around them begin snickering as if they were so innocent. "All four of you were students with clear records!"

Although Danah didn't like the thought of being lectured, she knew that he was right. She was considered quite smart, so she was shocked herself that she made such a reckless decision.

"However, the four of you are in the top 20 student placements for the 2004 kids, so your parents will be spared from knowing." Principal Bang crosses his arms, sighing. He then eyes Wonyoung, knowing that she is Class President.

The students that were witnessing this entire thing eye each other, confused at what their principal's point was. However, the four girls instantly understood, jaws dropping.

"Therefore, you will only be permitted to after school community service, and your transcripts will not be affected."

Everyone in the room groans.
"That's not fair!"
"Favouritism!"
"Bias!"
"This is an injustice!"

"Silence!" Principal Bang yells and everyone in the room instantly does so. "Is everyone else in this class requesting detention?!"

The students look at each other, glaring. Then, they collectively stare at Ms Song for aid. "Everyone, apologize to your principal." Ms Song, who was silent until now, mutters from her desk.

It takes them a few seconds to hesitantly stand up and bow. "Sorry, Principal Bang." they say in unison.

The four girls begin smirking at each other, thankful for their privilege.
Wonyoung, 2nd place.
Danah, 5th place
Sullyoon, 11th place.
Minji, 16th place.

"I wonder where Mr First Place is," Principal Bang solemnly looks at Jungwon's empty chair.

It only hit Danah now that she was waiting for Jungwon. In her head, she continued to envision him as Sheep and forgot about the fact that they were the same person.

She still couldn't make it all make sense.
Anyway.

The last time Jungwon suddenly disappeared from school, it was because he got kidnapped, so Danah couldn't help but feel worried.

It's not like she had any way to contact him either. She didn't have his number nor his friends' numbers. I have no way to contact him, she thinks to herself. Just then, her eyes suddenly widen. I'm an idiot!

"Jungwon, why aren't you at school today? Are you okay?" she sends him telepathy.

A few seconds later, she receives a "More or less" from him. She gets shivers down her spine from this, she wasn't used to telepathy yet and still found it quite spooky.

"What does that mean?" Danah asks.
"I'm fine," he assures her.
"Are you sure?"
No answer.

She wishes that Jungwon was more expressive. She can never guess what he feels at any given moment. She felt that he's not a very vulnerable person and that he wouldn't show her any of his weak spots any time soon.Even as Sheep, he wouldn't tell her anything.

However, he already has. Last night. But she doesn't remember.

The four girls were happily doing the after school community service that was requested of them by the principal, content that their parents wouldn't find out about their drinking fiasco.

They were all at the same park that they were in last night, but of course, they don't remember that — They were all still quite hungover.

At some point, Sullyoon almost tripped on nothing — Yup, they were pretty unstable. That didn't stop them from cleaning up the garbage around the place.

Minji looks at her Apple Watch, 5:13PM, then at the already darkening sky. They were almost in the midst of winter, so the sun was starting to get shyer.

"Th sun is setting," Danah frowns.

Minji chuckles, "We get it, Ms I Love the Sun." Danah doesn't react, zoning out.

Danah's mind was still somewhat clouded by the thought of Jungwon, but she was also happy that her parents wouldn't find out about the fact that she was drinking. I wouldn't be able to hear the end of it from them.

"Ew," Danah whispers to herself after seeing dog poop on the floor, forced to pick it up. The atmosphere was quite silent, everyone focusing on their own task. It was only garbage duty after all.

Wonyoung had on a wheat hat to protect her sensitive skin, pouting to herself at the disgusting ground.

Danah looks up to accidentally have eye contact with the principal who was supervising their every move. Still, she was thankful that he didn't snitch on them.

"Do you guys know how y'all got home?" Minji decides to end the silence as she scoops up a discarded bottle from the grass. She confesses, "I don't remember anything past my fifth shot."

"I was out after my first," Sullyoon quietly admits.
"Same," Wonyoung laughs. "I guess you're just stronger than the rest of us, Minji."

A few seconds later, Sullyoon innocently points out "Why is Yang Jungwon talking to Principal Bang right now?"

Everyone else simultaneously looks up, confirming Sullyoon's information. "What is he even doing here?" Minji raises an eyebrow.

Jungwon was connecting with the principal, smiling virtuously. And of course, him being a top student, Principal Bang returns his energy, not planning on bringing up his absence.

He can ghost me the whole day then show up like nothing happened? Pfft. Danah was perplexed but glad Jungwon seemed fine, she sighs in relief.

"He wasn't at school today," Wonyoung returns to focusing on her task, not caring much about the boy. "I wonder why."

Danah narrows her eyes. Jungwon was wearing casual clothes: a black compression turtleneck with an oversized jacket and baggy jeans.

"Either way," Sullyoon points at the two males. Principal Bang was noticeably smiling, knowing that he was talking to Mr First Place on Student Rankings. "Jungwon won't get in trouble."

"Of course not," Minji mumbles to herself.

Danah continues to stare at Jungwon, analyzing him for any differences. That's when he suddenly points at her. It doesn't take too long until Principal Bang to follow the direction of his finger, and all of a sudden he's nodding aggressively.

Danah tilts her head, a bit confused. Jungwon then bows at the principal, seemingly thanking him. Jungwon then heads her direction with a soft smile on his face.

"What's the meaning of this?" she communicates.
"I just cut your community service duties short for you," he simply says.
Huh?

Her friends notice him going towards her, and they all stare at her for an explanation. She simply shrugs, genuinely not knowing why he was there.

He throws his arm over her shoulder and faces her friends with an amused grin, "I'm stealing her away. Toodles."

"...What?" Minji's jaw drops in disbelief. Jungwon respectfully does a head bow and turns with Danah, walking away.

He doesn't even give them a chance to object. Danah peers over the shoulder and gave them an apologetic look.

"I'm so confused but I support," Sullyoon tries to hide a smile. She knew that Danah always had some sort of liking towards Jungwon, so she felt happy for her more than shocked.

Wonyoung's eyes widen but a smirk follows closely after. She looks at the way the two lovebirds flowed with each other, "I think they look good together, no?"

"Yup," Sullyoon agrees. "Welp, gotta get back at it before someone begins lecturing us," she gestures toward the principal who was still smiling to himself, glad he had a student like Jungwon.

"Right," Wonyoung sighs. Back to real life, she thought.

The two girls continued on with their duties, whilst one stood there in thought. You're making a great mistake, Danah... Minji slowly exhales out.
