A/N: 'Masisseoyo!' is a fake restaurant name I made up, so it would be completely coincidental if it actually was a real restaurant.
"Geum.. Jan.. Di...?"
"Lee.. Dae.. Hyun...?"
The two just stood there as if time stopped for just them. Then Dae-hyun broke the ice.
"Why are you here?!" he demanded in a harsh tone.
"Why are YOU here?" Jan Di demanded back.
"I should be the one to ask that. You're not smart enough to be a doctor!" Dae-hyun bluntly insulted.
"Ya, you're not rich enough to study at Shinhwa!" Jan Di retorted.
"And I suppose you're rich?" he argued sarcastically.
"That's different, I went to Shinhwa High on a swimming scholarship and took a test to get into this medical school. What exactly did YOU do?"
"Oh yeah, I heard about that. Shinhwa High's 'wonder girl', who was delivering a student's dry cleaning and ended up saving him from jumping off the building." he rolled his eyes. "Such a mediocre way to get into that school, don't you think?"
Jan Di frowned. "Mediocre? I totally saved that guy's life!"
He rolled his eyes again. "Whatever. It was cheap."
"Ah I see you guys have met each other!" the director of the outreach program called out as he walked towards them.
"Uh-huh." they both replied simultaneously in a sarcastic tone.
The director didn't notice. "Great! This is perfect because from today on, I want you two to bond a little more, get to know each other."
Upon hearing that, both of their eyes widened in surprise. "Wha-what?!"
"Why?!" they asked desperately in unison.
The director smiled. "Don't worry, I'm not setting you two up or anything. I want you two to bond specifically because Mr. Lee Daehyun-ssi here is new to our school, and is one of the best medical students in the country; and Ms. Geum Jan Di is one of our most warmest and welcoming students."
"On-one of the best medical students in the country?" Jan Di repeated, unbelieving. Lee Dae-hyun just smirked.
"Yes, we accepted him to attend Shinhwa Medical School on a free scholarship." the director replied, looking proud.
Jan Di just stood there, speechless.
"Now, here are some coupons for lunch. On me, of course." the director said as he handed out a coupon to both of them.
"'Masisseoyo!': Free lunch order with any drink. Expires 07/17. One use only.", the coupon read.
"Excuse me, sir, this coupon expires tomorrow." Jan Di pointed out, while Dae-hyun just sighed.
"He's giving this to us for lunch TODAY, Ms. Jan Di." he stated, annoyed.
The director chuckled. "Yes, well since you two have no more obligations for today, you can go there now." he said before leaving.
Jan Di stared after him, while Dae-hyun chuckled. "Well we better get going, then."
"What? I don't want to go anywhere with you!" Jan Di shouted.
"Well I don't want to go anywhere with you either, but we might as well use these free coupons." he suggested. "These are going to be useful for you anyways, since you're so cheap." he frankly stated before walking away.
Jan Di made a face and ran after him. "Ya!"
"Min Seo-hyun..."
Then for a split second Ji-hoo felt a pang strike in his heart. He wasn't sure of what- pain, happiness, regret?
"Ah, again, I'm really sorry." he apologized again.
"Oh, it's fine." she replied casually, brushing off the dirt from her dress, before taking his hand.
It was when she was standing up that Ji-hoo took a close look at her face, and found that she in fact, was not Min Seo-hyun.
Ji-hoo's eyes widened. "Excuse me but has anyone ever told you..." he started but stopped halfway as he realized he was really close to being late for work.
"I have to go, pardon me." he excused himself and ran off, leaving the young woman to stare off confusedly after him.
