I stepped on my heels and picked my purse. I hope the drivers are ready. I don't want to be late.
I walked downstairs to meet Canaan. Why is he back so early?. He was on the couch, buried in his phone and sucking his lips.
I smiled. He hasn't dropped that childish habit. He pushed back his red hair but it still fell over his face, gracing his forehead. He's so cute.
I remember that year I had to fly out because I was crushing seriously on him. Silly right?. I cleared my throat and he looked up with those mesmerizing eyes.
"What are you doing home at this time?" I asked.
"I have nothing to do today. It's not wrong to rest, is it?" He retorted.
"Right! It's not wrong to rest and I don't have a problem with that but while you're at it, who is taking care of Kim?" I asked.
"I just came back from a meeting. I'm tired, sis. Besides I'm sure she can take care of herself" he pouted. I shot him a glare. If only he knows how much I like that girl. She's real, chubby and soooo cute.
"No, she can't! Get off that couch and go to ABD right now" I ordered.
Suddenly, his eyes grew misty and very little. Shining like a thousand stars, wetting his long lashes. His lips pressed together in a pout and I was lost for a second.
Those eyes.... Snap out of it, Shugar!.
I looked away quickly before I would fall for it. The hot devil knows how to get away with everything. The moment he gives you the puppy look, you're trapped in his eyes like some kind of hypnotism.
"I've grown immune to that. Get your ass off the couch before I spank you" I threatened and he grumpily stood up.
"Good boy! Now get dressed and go to school" I said with a sweet smile.
"Stop acting like mom. You're just two years older" He groaned and I stuck out my tongue. He knows he doesn't have a choice.
Well he does but he won't dare disobey me.

"How come your picture is on the home screen?" She asked again and all eyes fixed on me. How do I get out of this now?. Why do I carry so much ill-luck? Do I look like the toxic ex fate once dated? Or maybe her ex-husband. Or a man who broke her heart on their wedding day?.
I thought of different lies and excuses but none of it seemed to make sense. I'm really in trouble!.
I heard her heels click as she walked to me. She pulled me closer but I kept my gaze on the floor.
"It seems you don't know what I can do to you. Don't forget I am Mi Rae and no idiot will make me waste my energy demanding an answer that..."
"That's enough, Mi Rae. You don't get to threaten any student here" a voice interrupted and gasped interrupted.
I looked up to see the owner of the voice and almost smiled. Cheng!. I wanted to jump into his arms or fall at his feet and kiss it in appreciation.
Mi Rae let go of me immediately and I made sure to avoid her gaze.
"But she....." She tried explaining but Cheng raised a hand to stop her.
"You don't want me to get mad at you, do you?" He spoke and she shook her head. She gave me back the phone walked out.
"Alright everyone, change into your gym clothes and go downstairs. Your instructor is waiting" He said and left. Gym what??.
The class was busy murmuring. I almost doubted they heard him at all. Turns out they did cause they started leaving class, pushing pass me like I wasn't there.
I felt a tug in my hand.
"Hey, what are you waiting for?. Don't worry, the school provides the wears. You'll find it in your locker so hurry up or you'll get punished" Annabelle said, pulling me along with her.
It wasn't exactly about the clothes. I'm terrible at everything related to sports and exercise. Are we allowed to skip?.
I got to my locker and spotted it easily because of the tag. I took it out and my eyes went wide. There's no way I'm wearing this! There were two pairs. One with shorts and the other with skirts. Both incredibly short and transparent.
I put it back in immediately and went downstairs without changing.
Outside was crowded with students. Is this like a compulsory thing or what?. I hope not!. I felt so odd as prying eyes fed on my appearance. Well I was the only one without a sportswear and we were certainly using the fields not gym.
I sighted Kim Hyuk, sharing the students into groups. He looked less built than when he appeared on TV. He's an Olympic star, yay! That makes everything easier! I sighed.
I joined the line, trying not to be disgusted at how girls easily girls flaunted their bodies before him, begging for attention.
He paid no mind as he kept sharing them until he got to me. His eyes scanned through me and he rose a brow.
"May I know what you're wearing?" He asked.
"I'm sorry but I wasn't comfortable with the sportswear. It's too tight and short" I said.
"You will have to wear it except you're ready to run a hundred lapses" He said. Hundred lapses?. Is that even possible?.
I glanced at the big field and almost screamed. It was bigger than the type you see in a stadium. How on earth is a human being supposed to run that?. I couldn't even go with the sportswear either.
"That field?" My voice betrayed the horror I felt.
"Unless you have a death wish, use the smaller one" He said, walking pass me. The second field wasn't far from the first and it was almost five times smaller.
I jogged to it and started running. As I ran slowly, I glanced at the students. I swallowed as I saw the impossible exercises they wee doing. Thank goodness, I choose this punishment. How would I have lifted my leg that high?.
I didn't even finish turning the field when I sat down panting. I'm so tired!. I stood up after sometime and completed it before falling on the grass.
I tried to steady my breathing. I've not even started and I'm already this tired. I turned the second time and slumped to the ground, a panting mess.
Now I wonder which is better. Kim Hyuk walked to me.
"You know you still have a long way to go right?" He said and I nodded. My eyes swept across the other field and I saw Canaan with four bodyguards.
My insides danced with joy as I quickly got on my feet. Finally, my savior has arrived!. The students surrounded him quickly and I rolled my eyes.
The ladies could strip if they wanted but I'm sure he wouldn't spare a look. His guards made way between the crowd for him.
He looked towards our direction and walked to us. I was beyond happy. No more punishment! I almost danced in joy.
Kim Hyuk shook hands and hugged him when he got to us. Then he turned his attention to me.
"Why is she here?" Canaan asked.
"She refused to wear the sportswear so I told her to run a hundred lapses" He said. I looked at Canaan hopefully as he eyes met mine. Please save me..please...
"Make it one-twenty" He said.
WHATTT!!!!!
