9:38 PM
Jin-ah was continuing to watch the movie with everyone, excluding Kyong and Ae-ri. She suddenly stood up. Everyone looked at her in confusion.
"Don't we have school?!?" Do -yun panicked, jumping up and turning to Binna.
"How are we still watching movies at 9pm?"
"It's fine." Binna shrugged. Do -yun groaned and ran his hands through his hair.
"I'm already in loads of trouble!" He whined.
"Relax. We will tell everyone tomorrow at school that you got sick because of jet lag." Jin-ah reassured him and patted his back soothingly. Do-yunIs sighed in relief.
"Thanks, Boss."
Kang-dae glanced to them, scoffing. "I can't believe we missed school."

"At least you guys got to enjoy the weekend here together. You have all been working hard and deserve to relax." Jin -ah spoke up.
"I guess. Do you have all of your notes, Jin-ah?" Kang-dae asked her.
"Yep! I have everything down."
"Okay. We can call our parents to pick us up. Are you guys staying over tonight?"
Binna and Bon-hwa looked at each other in worry.
"Umm..."
"Yeah, actually....we kind of planned to stay here tonight and sleep over, since we missed school today." Binna remarked.
"No. We should go home today."
"Alright. If you say so." Jin -ah agreed.
"Alright. We should start packing."
"Good plan."
Do -yun smiled. "Sounds like a plan."
Just at that moment, Ae-ri and Kyong walked into the room. Everyone turned their heads towards them and they both raised an eyebrow as everyone's gazes landed on their bodies.
"What happened with you two?" Jin-ah gasped softly.
"We went for a swim together!" Kyong exclaimed.
Everyone stared at them wide eyed.
"...Are you sure nothing happened?"
Do -yun asked skeptically.
Kyong nodded eagerly. "Yes. We didn't get intimate though...and we definitely did not fuck."
Everyone rolled their eyes at him.
"And we're leaving now." The duo started in unison. Before anyone could comment on that statement, Do -yun interrupted them.
"Hey, cmon. Stay here already. You guys should pack your stuff because we're leaving today."
They exchanged looks with each other, but after a short while, they agreed.

Once everyone was getting ready to go, the driver of the rental car was called by Bon-hwa. The driver was waiting outside, and the group was rushing out of the hotel with their luggage. As soon as the group stepped foot outside of the hotel, the driver opened the door and put all their bags in the trunk. After he shut it, he started the car.
Once the driver started driving, they made small talk until they reached the apartments of their parents.
When they were safely parked in their parking lot all of their parents were standing, waiting for their children.
"Welcome home!" Jin-ah's mom exclaimed. Jin-ah's father was smiling as usual, nd hugged her.
"How was the trip?"
"Great!" Jin-ah replied. "It was fun."
Ae-ri's mother hugged her, and so did everyone else's parents. Bon-hwa was being smothered by his mother. Kang-dae and his father were shaking hands.
"I'm glad you got to spend time with your friends, son." Kang-dae's father, Ho-Seok stated. Kang-dae smirked and responded,
"Of course. Who would have thought that they actually good company?"
His father nodded. "Well, we can't always get along with people, but at least we know how to tolerate them." He said, smiling.
Kyong's father, Junho, was speaking with Do-yun's father, Junwan.
"Ah, long time no see, old friend." Do -yun's father greeted him warmly.
Kyong's father, Junho, put his arm around "Congratulations surviving life, Junwan."
Junwan laughed lightly. "I've got my own family now. Thanks to you." He teased.
Jun -ho winked playfully.
Binna's mother ran up to her daughter.
"Oh my god, Binna, baby girl! I missed you so much!" She yelled hugging her tightly.
Binna giggled happily when her mother kissed her cheeks.
"I missed you too, mommy."
She replied.
"How was your day, baby? What have you been doing these days?" Her mother asked while caressing her cheek.
"Let's talk about it some other time okay? We're all tired, and we're going home now."
Binna replied.
Bon-hwa couldn't get away from his mother, as he was being totally smothered by her.
"Ugh...Mom! Get off of me! It's so suffocating!" He complained with annoyance. His mother finally let go and backed off him, and then she placed her hands on his shoulders.
"I'm sorry, son." She apologised. "How have you been doing?"
"I've been fine." Bon-hwa answered simply. "I just wish I could be more like...someone, y'know?"
"What do you mean?"
"I wish I was better at taking care of myself. I feel useless everytime something goes wrong." The boy sighed. He muttered under his breath. It was obvious he was worried about Binna.
"Son, don't think so negatively. You're amazing, alright? You're strong enough to protect her. And if there is anything that I can tell you, it's that you're not useless. You're incredibly capable and have a good heart. So, stop worrying so much okay?"
He smiled lightly, nodding. Then he raised his eyebrow.
"Wait, how'd you know I was talking about Binna?!" Bon-hwa said, blushing.
"It's so obvious." Her mother replied. "I mean, you can't hide those feelings of yours for too long. Besides, you've never been this happy before ever since you met her. So I was pretty sure you liked her."
"Oh." Bon-hwa muttered awkwardly. He smiled, flushing red.
After everyone met with their families, they went to their own homes.
