The weekend

"Yah, have you found a company for your internship?" asked Saeron towards Hyukjin and Jaeho. Three of them, including Il Hwa were sitting together in a café nearby the campus right after their class ended.

"Nope. Got rejected by the first company… I'm applying it again~" Answered Hyukjin and have a sip of his hot coffee.

"What about you?" asked Saeron towards Jaeho.

"Got accepted." Answered Jaeho. "Really?! Which company?" asked Hyukjin.

"Nam Group." Answered Jaeho. Both Saeron and Hyukjin was surprised by his answer. "What's wrong? You guys seems surprised…" said Jaeho.

"Yah, you do realize who owned the company, right?" asked Hyukjin and Jaeho nodded. "Yah, Nam Byunghun father owns it. Why?" asked Jaeho in curious. He noticed his friends seem so tense at the mention of that name and the company. Both Hyukjin and Saeron was looking at each other not saying a word buy worry is all over their face.

"They seemsweird…" said Il Hwa making Jaeho looked at her. But Il Hwa shrugged. "Just saying it…" said Il Hwa.

"Guys, what's wrong?" asked Jaeho.

"N-nothing! W-we just thought we should apply for an internship at that company too… so we can meet each other~ is that right, Hyukjin?" said Saeron as she nudged Hyukjin's arms. "y-yeah, we should!" said Hyukjin.

"A-alright then~" said Jaeho feeling weird with his friends' sudden behaviour. *Il Hwa's right. They seems weird. They're hiding something from me.* thought Jaeho.

"By the way, let's hang out this weekend, how about that?" asked Saeron. "Sorry, I'll pass. I have something to do this weekend." Answered Jaeho. As he took a sip of his coffee. "Yah, nowadays you always said you're busy, and you barely even hang out with us. Tell me, do you have a girlfriend?" asked Hyukjin suddenly. Jaeho choked a bit on his coffee at the mention of 'girlfriend'.

"N-no I don't." said Jaeho and he heard Il Hwa was giggling. "i need to tidy up the house because the house owner told me to keep the house clean." Lied Jaeho. All this time, he was with Il Hwa. "Okay then… but seriously, if you encounter any problem, or need our help, just tell us, alright?" said Saeron.

"Speaking of help…. Can you guys help me with something?" asked Jaeho suddenly.

"Sure! What is it?" said Saeron and Jaeho told them to get closer and whispered them something. Il Hwa, who noticed is got so curious over it.

"Yah, I wanna hear it too. What's with the whispers?" said Il Hwa.

"Just that? But why?" asked Saeron. "That's not a problem. We used to do that too~" said Hyukjin. "Used to?" asked Jaeho as he raised his eyebrows. Then, Saeron hit his arms. "Yah." Glared Saeron towards Hyukjin. "N-nothing!" said Hyukjin. "Sure, we can help. Don't worry!" said Saeron. "Alright then, thanks." Said Jaeho with a smile. But as for Il Hwa, she has no idea of what were they discussing just now.

While they were walking on their way home, Il Hwa was leading the way with Jaeho following her from behind.

"Yah Jaeho, won't you tell me what you three were discussing just now?" asked Il Hwa.

"Nope." Answered Jaeho. "Aww pleaseeee" pleaded Il Hwa. "Won't tell you. You'll know about it later~" said Jaeho firmly.

"tch. Stingy. Bye! Walk on your own!" said Il Hwa and vanished. Jaeho let out a chuckle and know that she was waiting for him at home.

---------------

The weekend is finally here. As what Jaeho had promised Il Hwa, he's going to bring her somewhere, which is a place for her to play piano. Both of them were having their dinner together in a town nearby their house.

"What do you wanna eat?" asked Jaeho while looking at the menu.

"I don't know… you choose. You're the one who's hungry…" said Il Hwa.

"Alright then~" said Jaeho and called the waiter to take his orders. "Alright, can you give me two portions of bulgogi, two bowls of white rice and one portion of salad please?" ordered Jaeho.

"Yeah, sure." Said the waiter and Jaeho thanked him.

While they were waiting for their foods to be prepared, Jaeho was busy looking at his phone texting his friends.

"Yah, have you guys make sure that no one else is in that room now?" texted Jaeho.

Il Hwa who, noticed it, tapped his hands and called for him. "Yah, who are you texting?" asked Il Hwa. "By the way, where are you taking me?" added Il Hwa.

"My friends are asking me about an assignment. And it's a secret." Answered Jaeho as he keep his phone inside his pockets. A few minutes later, their foods has arrived.

"Tch. Stingy." Said Il Hwa as she crossed her arms.

Once their foods have arrived, Jaeho placed a bow of rice in front of Il Hwa and scooped a spoon of bulgogi on her rice. "If you like the salad, you can wrap the meat and rice in the salad, alright?" said Jaeho as he place three slices of salad next to her rice bowl. His gestures and cares for her made Il Hwa feel so warm being next to him. She even noticed the stares that people are giving him and know that Jaeho paid no mind towards them at all.

"They're looking at you, placing the foods in front of me." Said Il Hwa and Jaeho looked around him and noticed the stares and whispering.

"Just let them be. They can't see you, but I can." Said Jaeho and that made Il Hwa smiles.

"Thanks." Said Il Hwa. Then, both of them begin to have their dinner together.

***

"What are we doing on your campus? It's in the middle of the night and no one is here…" said Il Hwa while following Jaeho from behind. Right after they had their dinner, they took a cab and arrived at Hanyang University. While Jaeho was walking, his phone beeped and it was a text from both Hyukjin and Saeron.

"We've double check. And no one's there. Don't worry."

"Come on~" said Jaeho as they walked a little bit further from their faculty. As they were walking, Il Hwa noticed that they had arrived in Faculty of Arts. Somehow, that faculty seems so familiar to her.

"What are we doing here?" asked Il Hwa. Both of them are in the dark hallway. Even though she's a ghost, she doesn't know why, but she feels scared and anxious at the same time as the hallways seem so familiar towards her. At first, she was following behind Jaeho while tugging on his shirts. But then, she suddenly led the way, till they reached one room. It was a practice room.

"I think I know this room." Said Il Hwa. While standing in front of the door.

"Wait, how do you know I'm gonna bring you to this room?" asked Jaeho.

"I don't know either. Somehow, as I was following you from behind, I feel like I know this place. The building, the hallway and even this door, is so familiar to me." Said Il Hwa. Then, she went through the door while Jaeho turned the doorknob. As soon as he entered, he saw Il Hwa was already sitting on a chair with her hands on the piano keys.

"I promise you that you'll play it. So I'm letting you remembering the songs that you used to play. Do you remember it?" asked Jaeho. Il Hwa's fingers were randomly touching the piano keys with a smile on her face. "I don't know… should I try?" asked Il Hwa. Then, Jaeho took a seat next to her on the chair and nodded. "That's the reason im bringing you here today~" answered Jaeho.

"Okay then~" smiled Il Hwa. Then, she let out a breath and starts playing. She doesn't know why, but the memories of her playing the piano were suddenly remembered and she started playing the piano with Jaeho sitting next to her.

Somehow, as Jaeho was listening to the melody, it sounds so familiar to Jaeho like he has been listening to the song for many times. As he was listening, a scene came out in his vision. It was a scene where he was in this room, with a girl. He was sitting next to her like how he did with Il Hwa right now and she was playing the same melody like what Il Hwa was playing.

When the vision of him and the girl disappeared, his head started to hurt as he was trying to remember those scenes. *this melody…* thought Jaeho.

"Ah-" said Jaeho as he was clutching so hard on his head. This time, the pain just hit him so hard and he can't even stand the pain. He fell down from the chair while moaning in pain. Il Hwa, who noticed it, got surprised by his sudden action and stopped playing the piano.

"Jaeho-ah, what's wrong?! You're scaring me!" said Il Hwa feels scared.

Suddenly, she heard someone just opened the door in a hurry and it was both Hyukjin and Saeron. "Yah, Lee Jaeho! Are you alright?!" asked Hyukjin. "See? I told you not to help him with this thing now look what happened!" said Saeron.

"Saeron, Hyukjin, what's wrong with Jaeho? Please… tell me… why is he like this?" asked Il Hwa while crying. But too bad, they can't hear her. After a few minutes Jaeho was holding the pain in his head, he passed out.

"Oh my god, Jaeho! Wake up!" shouted Il Hwa as she ran towards him, shaking his body. She was crying.

"Shit, yah Saeron, call the ambulance, now!" said Hyukjin.
