SOOHA looked at Minha who was still hugging onto his waist, never wanting to let go of him. He looked around and patted on Minha's back. But, he could feel that Minha's hug was getting tighter on his waist.
"What a cute little sister ..."
"Not gonna let your brother entering college, huh?"
Sooha sighed. He turned his head towards his older brother, Jooha who was standing by them, looking at Sooha with 'sorry-I-definitely-can't-help-you' look on his face.
"Urk-"
Sooha looked at Minha getting dragged by her collar from the back, he was shocked to see his sister shocked, choked face.
"Hyung," Sooha looked at Taeha who was dragging Minha away.
Taeha looked at Sooha, "If I don't do this, she might even follow you into your class, Sooha."
Sooha chuckled. Minha was still struggling from Taeha's grip,
"I wanna follow Sooha oppa!!" she groaned as she was wriggling around to escape.
Sooha smiled as he looked at his siblings,
"Well, you can always come visit my studio, Minha. There's a reason why I choose to study here," he said as he patted on Minha's head, "Now, you need to go back and study hard. I will wait for you to enter my university so that you can call me 'sunbae'," he added with a smile on his face.
Sooha looked at Minha who was looking at him with her excited face, "Really?? Will I ever to get into the same university with you, oppa??"
"Well, don't give her something to look forward to, Sooha!" Jooha said, looking at Sooha with his serious face.
Sooha just chuckled. He took a sneak peek on his watch, it's about time the orientation week gonna start, so he definitely need his siblings to get home. He only had less than thirty minutes before the first assembly, so he for sure don't wanna be late.
Noticing the uneasy look on Sooha's face, Taeha smiled. He quickly grabbed Minha, carrying her onto his shoulder,
"Oppa!" Minha shouted. Shocked from being carried like that.
"H-hyung?" Sooha looked at Taeha with his confused look.
"We'll be going now. It's almost your time to your first assembly, so you don't wanna enter the hall late, right?" Taeha looked at Sooha, "I'll be on my phone whenever you need me, just one ring and I'll be there," he said as he patted on Sooha's head.
"You'll be coming home for weekend, right?"
Sooha turned his head, looking at Jooha, nodding his head.
"Alright, if you want anything to eat, I'll cook them for you," Jooha smiled.
Sooha smiled. After waving goodbye towards his siblings, just right after their car was no longer on his sight, Sooha noticed something. He took a close look at the couple who were waving their hands towards someone in the crowd,
Is it me, or it's actually -
"FIRST YEARS, PLEASE COME INTO THE ASSEMBLY HALL IN TEN MINUTES. THE PROGRAM WILL START AT ELEVEN O'CLOCK, SHARP!!"
💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
SOOHA looked around the hall, people were busy asking each others' group numbers, while he just stood there, holding his small paper with the number '2' written on it. He looked at how others could easily form a connection by talking to each other, and how easily they could find their group mates, but he's just not as good as them.
"Hello,"
Sooha turned his head, looking at a small girl standing behind him with another tall girl standing next to her. The two of them were looking at him with their smiley face,
"H-hi," Sooha smiled, somehow he was feeling a bit awkward.
"Do you happened to be in group 2?" the small girl asked.
Sooha looked at the piece of paper he was holding, then he nodded his head.
"Ah, good. Come on, we're in group 2!"
The tall girl dragged Sooha towards their group members. They were already forming a circle , that Sooha just sat next to the two girls he met earlier.
"We're done, sunbae!!"
Sooha was surprised when the tall girl shouted next to his ears. Noticing how Sooha was shocked with her voice, she looked at Sooha with her apologetic look,
"Gosh, I am so sorry for shouting next to your ear," she said.
Sooha smiled, while giving gestures that he was fine with it, "I'm cool. It's just too sudden, that's why I was surprised,"
"Since you're the last member to be found, we should start our 'ice-breaking' session with you,"
Sooha looked at his group mates. They were all looking at him with their excited eyes.
Sooha looked at them with an awkward smile, as he was scratching the back of his head, "Does it ... really have to be, me?" Sooha asked.
All of them nodded their heads. Sooha smiled as he let out a small sigh. He looked at all of them,
"I'm Yoon Sooha. I graduated from XXX High School. Just in case if any of you are younger or older than me, I am actually twenty two years old," Sooha smiled, "I registered a bit late," he added.
"What about your second gender?"
Sooha looked at the owner of the voice. Shivers suddenly when through down his spine when his eyes met with the owner of the voice. He was looking at him with his smiley eyes, looking as he was having a hidden motive behind his question.
"Hey, no asking about secondary gender here, okay?"
One of the upperclassmen suddenly cut off their ice breaking session. Sooha looked at him with a smile on his face. He was thankful when he suddenly cut off their conversation.
"Listen guys, you all can ask all questions, except about secondary genders. We are not making friends based on genders, right? So, be nice and do not ask anything personal like that, understand?"
Sooha turned his head towards the leader of the facilitators who conducted the program. Somehow he was thankful to them, if not he might revealed his secondary genders to them. He then turned back his head, noticing the guy who asked him the question earlier was looking all annoyed with what happened.
Sooha then looked down to his feet. He could not hear anything after that. As if, he was stuck in a dark, hidden cave, not accepting any guess, any sounds from the outside world out of the cave.
Just like how he did back then.
💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
"AUGH, THAT GUY REALLY PISSES ME OFF!"
Sooha looked at Semi who was looking all pissed as the three of them walking out from the assembly hall after grabbing their stuffs. Joo Semi was the small girl who dragged him into their team earlier, along with the tall girl.
"Well, he should know that asking about our secondary genders is prohibited anywhere,"
Sooha then looked at Han SooA who was walking next to Semi, also looking all pissed off just like Semi.
"Well, it cant be helped if they are curious," Sooha smiled as he looked at the two of them.
"Sorry you have to go through that, oppa. That guy should be thrown down into the Han RIver for being so oblivious about the rule of asking people about their secondary gender." Semi said, looking at Sooha with her angry face.
Sooha chuckled, "It's okay. I am used to it," he said, looking at them with a smile on his face.
He's used to it. Very much used to it.
"Used to it?" SooA looked at Sooha, "Does that mean, you were often asked about your secondary gender like earlier?" she added another question.
Sooha scratched down the back of his neck, looking at them, "Well, I did." he said in a slow voice.
"People would asked me about my secondary gender whenever they wanna talk to me," he added.
SooA looked at him, judging him from head to feet. Then, she took a while to think while her eyes were still looking at him. Then, she smiled.
"You're an Omega," she said in a slow voice. She leaned her face closer towards him, "But, you don't give off any pheromones smell on you,"
Sooha looked at SooA with his surprised face. Judging from Sooha's look, SooA suddenly looked a bit panic,
"I-I was just assuming though. Because you're not that tall and you're really pretty!"
Sooha was shocked for the second time. No one ever called him pretty right on his face like that before. He was really surprised that his face turned red, embarrassed. He looked at SooA's red face, hiding as she was hugging Semi who was looking at them, feeling left out like a third wheel.
"Look, I am here to study. Not to see my new friends falling in love with each other, okay?" Semi said, looking at both SooA and Sooha with her annoyed face.
SooA looked at Semi, "No! I am not hitting on Sooha oppa!!" she said, panicking.
Sooha looked at the two of them, laughing.
