Sora

The next day, Sora chats with her classmates about the projects and takes her seat as Professor Han trolls inside.

“Good Morning students. As you all know, today, now I'll tell the winners and the team who will go to Seoul. All of your group projects have been very amazing and I'm very proud of it, however the project that shines the most out of all of you is,” He pauses to create a suspense with a small smile.

“Project no. 7!”

“Oh?” Sora whips her head around just as everyone else to see which group it was. Four people sitting together jolts from their seats in joy as they dance around.

Sora looks for her teammates to see Hye-ji smiling at her as if it was an unfortunate destiny. Min-soo, looking uninterested, simply shrugs his shoulders. Sora wasn't any different from him, their project was good but so were others'. She expected it to happen anyway, for there were others' who did far better in their projects

Project no. 7 was no difference. It was a stunning multimedia installation that focuses on urbanization.

Though she had thought about what things she would do if she ever got a chance to travel to Seoul. Meeting Taehyung by accident may or may not be a part of her fantasies.

Professor Han's eyes shines with pride as the four students stood up to come to him.

“I'm very proud of your team, I was really impressed with your project. I'll get it exhibited in the art room. Now, as I promised, you four will go to Seoul during the holidays that will be given to you all before the final exams. Hope you don't have a problem with the trip plans, I don't want any of you slacking off while the college is still open for you.”

Sora simply nods her head as Professor Han tells the winners to take their seats before starting his lecture.

As the college day drew to a close, Sora gathered her belongings, eager to escape to her favorite local bookstore and library. It was a haven she had discovered early in her high school days, and since then, she'd become a regular visitor, devouring novels and getting lost in the musty scent of old books.

“Hey Sora.” She turns to the counter, seeing the familiar boy sitting lazily.

“Hey Yoonshi. I came at the right time, here are the books I issued this week.” Sora places the books on the counter table as Yoonshi collects them to one side.

“Where's grandma?” Her eyes scanned the familiar shelves, searching for the warm smile of the adorable Grandma, who always tidied up the corner books with loving care. But instead of the elderly lady, a familiar figure stood behind the counter, Yoonshi, Grandma's grandson.

When Sora was just a beginner, Grandma would guide her through the shelves, recommending titles and sharing stories. Yoonshi would sometimes tag along, killing time, as a friendship grew between the two of them despite Yoonshi having little-to-no interest in reading while Sora, the exact opposite.

“She fell sick, told me to take care of the store as she knew you were coming.” He explains as he keeps the books on their shelves.

“Oh, she's so sweet. I hope she gets better, this is the third time!” Sora, upon receiving no response from him, then goes around the novel sections to check which one to read next. Two girls were already chatting, Sora's eyes darts to the book in one of the girls' hands. Princely chivalry.

One of her books.

Sora smiles as she passes by them, their conversation pausing for a second before continuing.

“I know right? I never expected the plot to turn anything like that! I'm so glad I found that you have read this! I can finally gush over all about the book!” The girl, who has grasped Sora's book, takes the other girl to a bench to proceed their chat.

“Sol is really good at changing expected things into unexpected. I was surprised too, you know.”

Sora has a secret bashful smile while leaving the girls alone, for she somehow always hear people talking about her books in the sections. She felt proud and with a tiny guilty bit of ego booster, she was prideful of all the praises she receives.

Taehyung

“We're performing on Daegu? Why am I getting this information now?! I thought the concert was supposed to be on Seoul!” Taehyung groans in frustration, leaning his head back against the chair.

“I was informed about the change of plans just now Taehyung. Calm down. I don't know why the plans changed, nobody knows expect the supervisors.” His manager, Kang-soo, tries to calm him down, afraid of getting fired if the artist before him bursts into the pit of fire.

“You're telling me to calm down? Do they even know how much this will affect the whole management?! Have they gone nuts!” Taehyung nearly kicks off the chair in anger, he was tired of being dragged according to the company's wish like a puppet. Sometimes, he just wishes he could run away from all of the pressures.

“Taehyung, I can understand but you have to go according to the flow.” Seeing Kang-soo backing away in fear, he sighs in guilt.

“Kang-soo, I'm sorry for yelling at you...” He apologises before grabbing a water bottle to drink. He was ready for the performance that was happening this week but now that the place is changed, he is feeling nervous and overwhelmed. “What about Moonlights? The tickets are all sold out for Seoul concert.”

“The company already announced the changes. On social media, a lot of them still insist on coming to Daegu but few of them aren't. They said that the sudden change of place ruined their own plans.”

“Woah, so the fans got to know about the change before the artist? Unbelievable! What the hell were they thinking that caused them to suddenly change it? Jesus.”
Taehyung shakes his head in disbelief.

However, he had a feeling of joy upon hearing this. Before the change of place, he had thought that he will visit his family in Daegu after Seoul concert. Getting permission from the company was more on the refusal side but now that the concert is on Daegu, getting permission has become easier.
