*Vroom! Vroom!*
After dropping Ethan off at his university Lucas was seen riding back towards the different district region of Seoul. He currently resides in a region made up for the residence of middle-class people; it wasn't as bad to be called an extreme outskirts made directly for garbage pickers and also not so rich to be for the rich ones to even consider.
Hence, the place to buy really quality items was a bit away from where he resided. Lucas was a resident of Dongjak District, a plain, simple region known for its mix of residents and commercial areas suitable for middle-class people because of its wide range of availability of lots of residential buildings as well as good transport, parks, and schools.
The Seoul National University Collage of Medicine that Ethan was part of was just a few miles away from residents, that's to say, their resident being in the corner region of Dongjak District, and now from here, Gangnam District was about a bit more than 12 kilometres away.
"That's why it's annoying to move out and move into the residency."
Lucas sighed with a frown and silently came out of the bike at the parking, and while locking the helmet with the bike below a large shopping mall in Gangnam District, he started moving towards the lift to move upstairs from the underground parking.
'Was it a convertible laptop? Thankfully, I brought this phone already, so no need for the mess. Some more clothes, an extra helmet since now the geek is also living with me, and... Maybe a set of glasses?'
Lucas was just thinking, but suddenly his gaze got stuck on the same familiar face he had seen yesterday night standing right inside the lift that opened up right in front of him.
"Oh my!"
Siha Park, the female steamer from last night, suddenly gasped on her face, as she also seemed surprised as she saw Lucas right in front of her.
"Lucas-nim? What a big coincidence!!! How did you end up here?"
"What the..."
Lucas himself looked amazed as his eyes met those of Siha in front of him, and then his gaze went over her arms. She was still holding the phone camera with a selfie stick in her hand.
"Are you streaming?"
Lucas questioned with surprise as Siha turned her gaze on her phone camera, and a chuckle popped out of her face as she joyfully replied.
"Indeed!!! See, the people are so happy to meet you again!"
[Holy mother of mine in the heavens?!!]
This isn't a coincidence! It's fate! [Now marry me!]
[He's looking at me again!]
[Hahahaa! I'm going crazy! I'm going crazy! He's here! He's here!!! [Let me call me Unni here!!!]
Lucas took a glance at those comments and felt a bit relieved to see that the comments weren't as thirsty as the last night. As he quietly entered the lift, as the lift closed off, Lucas explained
"What a coincidence indeed... I came here to shop for some extra pairs of clothes; I have only one suitcase at home, and I don't have the proper amount of clothes and such."
"Oh my! Then let's go straight to the 5th floor! You seem to like branded clothing, right? You are really wearing the 'Classic 1999 Edition—Decade Titan Set' rings, right? That alone is quite rare! I never saw that edition; I don't know much about men's rings, but from what I know, that set is worth $20 million on its own, right?"
"You actually know?"
Lucas was extremely surprised this time; he wasn't really much of a fan of showing off, but these rings were an important gift to him from someone close to him from the past; hence, he always wore them, but the set was so rare that many recognised the brand.
"Haha... Well, I just did some research in the past; I graduated with a degree in fashion, so I know a few things about it."
Siha looked a bit surprised over Lucas's out-of-normal reaction, and the next second, with a little thinking, she immediately recommended
"Then let's move to the 5th floor. There are a lot of shops on the 5th floor that might match your taste; I can show you around there."
"Oh! I'm thankful for the kindness; it's not bad to have a guide in a new place."
Lucas nodded with a smile as the lift finally opened up over the floor in just a few short seconds.
"I will show you the way! Let's move this way!"
Siha seemed a bit excited; her view counts and donations were both going higher and higher with each second, but at the same time, Lucas's attention moved over towards a certain group of high schoolers standing outside a corner of the cafe on the same floor.
Call it coincidence or destined luck that Lucas's gaze fell over that group. They were all wearing high school uniforms while standing in the corner in a mall-like place at such a time, while at the same time, in a group of four kids, all didn't seem to be kids of equal standing. The one kid with bandages around his forehead seemed a bit out of that friend's group; he stood out like a sore thumb in the middle of those three confident kids.
'...'
"What's the timing of school here in the Seoul region?"
Lucas quietly questioned while moving in the opposite direction of that cafe, along with Siha, while ignoring the small sight.
"Usually 8 to 9 AM, why?"
"..."
Siha replied with a look of confusion because of that random question. Lucas didn't reply and just took one more glance while moving forward in the same direction.
Siha noticed Lucas's gaze, and as she turned back, she also noticed those four high schoolers, and a giggle suddenly got out of her mouth.
"Oh? It looks like some kids are bunking classes today! Hahaha! It reminds me of my days; we did karaoke in my time! Talking of that, have you also tried karaoke? It's a fun place!!!"
[For real...]
[Being young again!]
[I will go hang out with my dudes today!]
[Been so long.]
Siha nodded with a smile, seeing those comments, while Lucas didn't seem all impressed by such a thing as he muttered.
"It doesn't seem like a fun place to be in for that one."
Lucas's gaze met that one kid from before he noticed, and next, he quietly just entered the clothes shop along with Siha.
"Now then! Let's go over to the shopping rush! Let's go!!!"
Lucas purchased several items as what he wanted, even trying out many of them; all of it was in a way lucky generous service for the viewers of the stream, and after purchasing all of them, Lucas and Siha were now on their way to leave.
"You really purchased a lot, haha! Then what do you think about karaoke? I can sing really well, you know! I can teach you to hang out, and then we both can."
"Oh! Sorry, Siha, I remember a little thing I forgot to get earlier. Can you take care of my things here? I will be quick."
Lucas suddenly made that request while placing Siha on a seat outside the cafe as he placed all the bags he purchased over the table and besides her seat.
"Oh, no problem!"
Siha seemed happy to help, and Lucas nodded and immediately left with a smile while waving his hand. He moved forward in that cafe area, and before Siha could even track him, Lucas had mysteriously vanished. Meanwhile, the same skinny kid that Lucas was paying attention to earlier was seen standing over a corner outside the woman's bathroom with a plastic glass in his hand.
'I just need to drink it all and run inside the women bathroom to puke! It's a one-time thing! One-time thing! I'm a high schooler, so I won't be charged for crime! I will be spared! It's just a one-time thing! After that, I'm free! They won't come after me anymore! I won't need to endure another year! Just this time! Just one last time!!!'
He gritted his teeth while taking a deep breath. The women coming and going from the women bathroom have started to look at him weirdly, while at the same time he was standing there in his school uniform with a small spoilt milk and about 3 half-burnt cigarettes still producing smoke and ashes inside that plastic glass.
'I just need to drink it all up! It won't be as bad as drinking Cigrette ashes like last time! I just once! I'm prepared to endure all the shame for next month! But if you didn't do it right now, I'm done! I would rather commit suicide than endure it anymore! Just this once!'
He was completely unprepared; neither his mind nor his heart were prepared for any of it. As he saw that horrific thing on his glass with the awful smell of spoilt milk that was easily left for almost a week in there, and on top of that, the ashes of cigerettes just mixed over there along with literal cigerettes, his face got filled with extreme disgust and frowning, but still gritting his teeth, he suddenly shouted
"It's now or never!!!"
As he shouted, he immediately lifted the glass, but as he was about to drink that disgusting thing with his own mouth, suddenly the glass was smashed away by Lucas, who appeared there just on the brink of time, throwing away all the substance of the ground, leaving that kid in absolute shock.
"Wha..."
"What the fuck is with you? Were you seriously about to drink that?"
