Chapter 9 - 9

At the Mall – Evening

After the university day ended, everyone went home to get some rest. But Jay and Max hurried ahead, arriving at the mall before anyone else.

A little later... Shiyoung entered the mall, eyes scanning everywhere.

Shiyoung (angrily): "Where are you, Max? Where are you?"

He grabbed his phone and called Max.

Shiyoung: "Hello?"

Max (from a distance, laughing): "Raise your hand... so I can see you!"

Shiyoung raised his hand and waved. Suddenly, he noticed someone walking in the same direction.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Shion entered, holding her phone, calling Jay.

Shion: "Where are you, Jay?"

Jay (calmly, teasing): "See the guy waving his hand? Go toward him."

Shion walked hesitantly... and was shocked to see that the man waving was Shiyoung himself. A moment of silence filled the space. Both froze in their steps, staring at each other in disbelief.

Suddenly... Shiyoung's phone slipped from his hands.

Max (shouting from hiding): "Sorry, buddy! I couldn't come myself... but I sent Shion in my place!"

Shiyoung screamed at the top of his lungs, furious:

Shiyoung: "You traitor, Max!..."

Meanwhile... Shion's phone rang.

Jay (with a muffled laugh): "Consider it a little surprise! Let's kick off your friendship with Shiyoung."

Shion hung up, her face flushed with anger.

Shion (muttering angrily): "I'll show you, Jay... tomorrow at university!"
