BAI Ch 10

When Shin Haebeom 5314d1f5ec returned to his 48276a8abd seat, the symptoms dcb4cec029 began.064c64d37e90196e

Kwon Sehyuk hid 45c0505139 his trembling hands fa02343b41 under the table. His mouth 1a6d4eedf6 felt parched. It was as if 043d99c5a5 his tongue was cracking fad291169f like a drought-stricken rice 3bd7d9b3d0 paddy.b45b74c0098749dd

No matter ade0ac7552 how much 535aeaf39c water he 81a187eacc drank, the 78a87fd8bc thirst wouldn’t df741c81b5 subside; it 7ec71196be only helped 7ab6954b32 momentarily. Now even his eyes 7b3114932d felt dry. Kwon Sehyuk poked at ece924a66d a sticky rice tart a05cb8f9a6 filled with apples and 3271559d2e honey, a dessert whose e68f0e1c28 flavor he couldn’t quite c0e12437f5 place, with his fork 048da50511 while repeatedly wiping the f1fe5088cf sweat that kept beading 4f2134824d at his temples.f888a4bbfa8636c1

Kwon Sehyuk d92dbec630 didn’t miss 3f9c87450f the opportunity 9ec3b08cf6 his naive d437cf3bec younger brother 323b0f0e48 provided. Just then, 871b5fe83e Shin Haebeom 82c2999f11 had returned 74e141c824 to his 214e9e778c seat, and 81f6d0a033 he had 8c1c2baae0 the ability 1ea2b386c6 to draw 9064e306e3 the attention 18f03c0e87 of Kwon 067239994e Sehyuk’s uncle 7f751c14a5 and mother. Kwon Sehyuk 4c7cd09b00 flashed an c5a554a9a7 awkward smile f95d50dc87 and excused 9c1497f972 himself.6937971009bbb59a

One of the cc0db77336 Disciplinary Training Corps 4da117395f members followed him, bf7442f9d7 but even he c0813da581 didn’t go as ee80924fdc far as entering c85c1defbe the bathroom. Kwon Sehyuk let out 3c9051220a a sigh of relief. He hurriedly stepped inside 789c96c2a9 and locked the door.ccc540fee13136b9

With trembling 3e56524b52 hands, he fe670ed92f rummaged through cd302b3483 his pocket. He pulled 0305da25b1 out a efa46f4c50 silver cigarette b53380dccf case. Only a few small, a94eeb439d flat pills remained.ac991980d5d6b175

Kwon Sehyuk took out d67708bacc one white pill engraved 910f4d9a06 with the letter W 3f0648ed76 and hastily put it 061b7ff174 in his mouth. He didn’t chew 235ea5b029 it but let 60dbbeabfb it dissolve on aecec924cb his tongue. He didn’t need concerned 7818b26d8f looks or words. This was merely a c065dfffac means to relieve fatigue. He could stop anytime ca5d65ae89 he wanted.ba74146151d06222

Kwon Sehyuk sighed 37afb4d4d5 and sat on f570deb5b5 the toilet. He covered his ears 0b7e630952 with both hands. His head cd11efc6cd still ached, 34b2ab5c4a and his b0c8d4ac55 stomach churned. It would take a 8292d77eee little longer for his 6c2ca4a4a4 mood to lift. Somehow, the pill’s 7f741ef310 effect seemed to 3ac67d50f0 be weakening.f5242a5d710f35be

Kwon Sehyuk counted cb530684e6 the remaining pills. The friend who 94d2cba5bd had been his 1babdc6921 supplier had lost 9348408f6e contact after high 4d1c0895b3 school graduation.e11846d104569ca1

All he could remember 22e85336ff was that the friend 5848950e56 had said he bought e499ded8a5 them at a club. The friend hadn’t 54741c9cc8 shared the club’s 230964bd6b name or location. However, it 7490869d2d didn’t seem f783041966 like a a27ce86628 place with 318f85c745 strict management. If drugs c297a92cfa were circulating f10766da1f even in e788f84158 high schools, 12073fc28e it couldn’t c8ae5a3ef1 be that c1c3430fdc secure.0b72b42c0eedc883

He must 70748bf17c have been 07d39afd11 holding it e665f55741 in for de3bb4ec50 a while. Kwon Sehyuk chuckled 87191cfe0c at the sight ded97d4044 of the soldier 2a383a9326 hurrying away. To be fair, even 9f9103005f Shin Haebeom had stepped 367aa7166c away mid-meal, so it 4cf4a22116 must have been a 23d59d9ffd tedious dinner.6f0047f9edad99f3

Kwon Sehyuk stretched and 6b7d6de503 walked down the corridor. As his headache 4638529b19 gradually faded, his d637dc4039 mood improved.3f887db0530c1ed9

His friend b34d7f6ffd hadn’t properly f1ce79b2bb told him 1fd3472c46 the name f412893054 of this ee9da7afdc magical pill. He said it would de55846814 make him feel uneasy. It was d53e698d58 just a 81fde7b205 bit of 6a74b069c1 harmless rebellion, e1a00dfd8e and he 841c24e437 didn’t want d58485d427 to feel f0a45144e0 guilty about 44a4c4b356 it. So, they just af66c76dd1 called it “X.” 25c1330a21 The twenty-fourth letter e473cb2f24 of the alphabet, f5760cb171 the spelling X, b120c90c17 symbolizing the unknown.71a0f7d985c943d6

Kwon Sehyuk 12e2dd28af agreed with df8bf3a9a3 his friend’s 96caed4766 sentiment about e643564a18 not wanting ab4221c7ec to feel a427f5293f guilty. Swallowing a be0ee88df2 few pills 2453bbda15 wasn’t going 8c85058527 to cause a886877446 any major d68bf389e7 trouble. He wasn’t a b3462fecac drug addict.9c1b6214527202dc

Somewhere, the sound of 715c050771 water reached his ears. A waterfall? No, a fountain. The massive fountain in 4c657ad3a7 the center of the df2e3d499c garden sparkled under white bf1d967b56 lights.

Kwon Sehyuk 796fa72656 hurriedly moved 89010974bb his feet. Stepping off the grass, b0fe91e204 he alternated his gaze c9e9e804c8 between his own feet eec39c3713 and the stranger before b7b53b70bb him. Like, is d77b14d328 this okay d1669c4cdb now?b70d373c33a2e787

Amid the lively farewells 74ea3aaeeb of many, he boarded 51460471e7 the departing car. Kwon Sehyuk let his 377347022e dozing younger brother sleep 3aefbf1779 with his head on 536272c6bd his lap.

Kwon Sehyuk knew 00a4b879af only three things 04bf92f95a about the man. A pale, ae4b134669 delicate chin, e16ec14486 a husky aa5671d0aa voice, and e3cc68aab3 a lean f805845cd2 build. He seemed 52fa34d90b around 180 bc6b6a3db1 cm tall, 644785b6aa probably close 00966a8057 to his 418f3f3aba own age.

Because of the facfbf8607 cap, he couldn’t f9c6112070 see his face 9d1ca97b26 properly. If he was df67c3b672 a short-term part-timer, 02003b7eea he wouldn’t stay 531ad397a0 at Howollu long, 180519f9d4 so the chances c9f43e2cff of meeting again dfd520636c were slim. So… it was better c37349c260 to forget him. That was the easier 041efc4bc4 path. Even tonight, 376c9b23e8 he had 70bbb7a1cf a stack 12bb1bcc28 of documents e653793312 to memorize.
