Panic
Lee Minho
Oh my god oh my god oh my god— *panic*
Lee Minho
*bag drops to the floor*
phone buzzes in his pocket
Lee Minho
*look at the mirror*
*Neck bruised, lips swollen, hair a mess.*
Lee Minho
How did I— how did I not notice??
Lee Minho
Professor Jung?! Out of all people?!
He staggers to the kitchen, fills a glass with water, and spills half of it on the counter. His phone buzzes again.
Lee Minho
*sigh frustrating*
Jiho
Heyyy where’d you disappear last night? 👀 Did you get lucky??
Lee Minho
Yeah. No. I mean. Kinda.
Lee Minho
I Fucked up. Like. Really bad.
Jiho
LOL. Spill. How bad? Like… ghost him bad or…?
Lee Minho
I Thought I was with seojon
Lee Minho
It wasn’t seojon.
Lee Minho
It was my professor.
Lee Minho
I Slept with him. I called him babe. I begged him to—
Lee Minho
I’m gonna die. I’m dropping out. 😭
He Buries his face in his knees, cheeks on fire. The image of Jung’s cold smirk flickers in his head and makes his stomach twist.
Jiho
WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO??
Lee Minho
...I don’t know.
Lee Minho
I Really don’t know.
Jiho
No no no— you can’t just not know, Lee!! Are you gonna talk to him?? Pretend it never happened?? Drop out?? WHAT??
Lee Minho
*sigh, headache*
His mind is spinning—memories of last night mixing with flashes of Jung's blank stare in class.
Lee Minho
I Can’t face him.
Lee Minho
He said see you in class. Like it’s nothing??
Lee Minho
He’s gonna ruin me.
Jiho
Maybe he won’t say anything.
Lee Minho
*Lets out a strangled laugh.*
Lee Minho
He’s literally the meanest professor on campus.
Lee Minho
He Once made a guy cry for using the wrong font in a report.
Lee Minho
THANK YOU, JIHO. VERY HELPFUL.
Jiho
Hey hey— I’m just saying!
Jiho
What if he liked it tho?? 👀 Maybe he wants it again??
Lee Minho
Stop. I can’t even think about that.
Lee Minho
It Was a mistake. A HUGE mistake.
Lee Minho
I have to fix it.
Jiho
Fix it how?? Apologize??
Jiho
What are you gonna say?? Sorry for riding you like my life depended on it?? 💀💀
Lee Minho
I’m never drinking again.
His phone buzzes again. A new message—different name.
Jung Teahoon
Be in my office. Today. 5 PM.
Jung Teahoon
Don’t be late.
Minho’s stomach drops to the floor.
Jiho
SPILL. WHAT DID HE SAY??
Lee Minho
He wants to see me. Alone.
Lee Minho
I’m so, so, so dead.
