And somehow, you’ve become my everything
My missing puzzle piece
(NCT Dream - Puzzle Piece)
🎶
This morning everything went as usual at your school. The kids arrived on time. You sit next to your best friend and Haechan's voice tweets. Yes, he sounds more loud than a bird or a chicken in the morning.
"You know that teacher's mother was fighting with her husband? I saw it for myself" Haechan spoke to you.
"Chan, you've said that 10 times since yesterday" you said slightly off-guard.
"Is there no other story?" jaemin asked, agreeing with your words.
"No .. oh, wait. New boy! Our school will have a new student" the man exclaimed slightly as he remembered.
"Is she pretty?" Jeno immediately replied.
Plaque!
"You're this. Even Haechan hyung didn't say he was a girl or a boy" Jaemin said, hitting his best friend's shoulder.
"Then is he handsome?" ask your best friend who sits in front.
"You're just like Jeno!" now it's your turn to scold your best friend.
"Yeppeose."
"Nal barabwa judeon geu nunbit ...," Renjun connected Haechan's answer with a chant. Chenle laughed out loud, like a dolphin.
"Eish, that's not what I meant. The new kid is pretty, too" Haechan clarified.
"It means girl, right? I'm right dong!" bela Jeno's.
"Yes, deh, hyung jago," replied Jisung lazily.
"Which class is he going to, huh?" ask Mark, your class president.
The crane!
The bell starts the lesson clock. The students in the class sat on their respective benches immediately upon hearing footsteps from outside.
"Give me greetings!" Mark stood up as soon as your class teacher came in.
The whole class immediately followed and said, "Good morning, Mom!"
"Again, kids. Maybe some of you already know. We'll see a new face in this class." The whole class is back boisterous, including you of course. Everyone knows that there is a new child, but only now do you know that child is coming into your class.
"Eunbyeol. Come in" the teacher called the boy. A woman came in and smiled at all of you. "Include yourself."
"Hello everyone, I'm Ha Eunbyeol, living in Gangnam."
"Well, Gangnam. This person is really as distinguished as he is," you murmured when you heard the introduction of the new boy.
"Well, Mark's back is empty. Please sit there," the teacher directed him to sit behind Mark. Several other children talk about the existence of Eunbyeol who comes from a seemingly-rich family. But today is going flat. Eunbyeol's move to your class didn't have any impact on you.
Not until the next day. Very unusual because Mark who is usually diligent in school, today did not enter without a clear reason. So does Eunbyeol, it could be that the new child does not enter on the second day. But you don't really care about the new kid. You care more about Mark's absence in your classes and chat groups.
"Well, he didn't say anything to me. Even if it was a sudden pain she should have told me, at least," Haechan conveyed her anger as we ate together in the cafeteria.
"Wait until later in the afternoon. If he doesn't come in tomorrow, we go to his house" your friend replied. You also wait for news from Mark who does not come until the next day comes.
It turned out that things remained greeting, Mark did not enter while Eunbyeol had entered.
"Mark where exactly? The boy was weird. I should replace yelling greetings, right!" haechan.
"We're going to his house after this," Renjun broke up.
"Friends! It's crazy, seriously. I found this on YouTube live" Jaemin exclaimed as he sat at the same table holding his phone.
"At first I was hesitant but .. It looks like the one there is really Mark" Jeno said slowly.
"Mark?" you're all surprised together.
"Let us see!" Jisung asks for the phone from Jaemin's hand. Jisung and Chenle who were sitting next door saw that together. They looked surprised too.
"That's true and it doesn't seem like the situation is good. I mean, like a hostage," Chenle explained, showing you that.
"God! How come?"
"Wait-wait," you scroll through the screen and find that the account has an 'Eun-Star' ID'.
"Eun-star's? The star? A byeol? Eunbyeol? Eunbyeol's account?" you make a guess.
"Where is it possible? The boy is here" Renjun argued. Yeah, that doesn't seem reasonable.
"Has her account been hacked?" guess Chenle.
"I don't know. But two days ago, when I went out with my parents. I saw Mark and Eunbyeol together. At first I wanted to say hello. But they disappeared as I turned. Should we be suspicious of him?" you tell them slowly and the volume of the sound is small.
"What are you watching?"
That soft-sounding voice managed to surprise you. He's your talking center right now.
"Oh, we're watching 'Mystic Pop-Up Bar', '" in a bit of a panic, Jaemin changed the display from live to a streaming app that aired the drama.
What the fuck? Like interrogating, your mind is upset.
Jeno complied and showed Eunbyeol the look of the phone. Luckily on time, his looks changed and he managed to fool you.
"That's a good drama. I like Yook Seungjae, haha," the woman passed by and you guys heaved a sigh of relief.
"I feel sorry for Yook Seungjae for having a fan like him if he did that to Mark" Renjun said.
"We must ensure the authenticity of the live show. The video is always moving. I don't know if it's a real live record or a real live, there's only one way I can think of right now" you said quietly, "Today there's no night class, right? Let's go to PC Bang- internet."
After school hours, you immediately rush to the nearest PC Bang from the school. Total three computers you rent for about an hour.
"Is that not too short? Can you find him for an hour?" Jisung looks at you doubtfully.
"We'll just try. I'll track it down as I can, "you start working to find out where this video is being broadcasted through the IP address. Belonged to it, you are with your best friend. While Haechan, Jaemin and Jeno are one room. Run along with Chenle and Jisung.
"Oh, there's one comment that attacked Eunbyeol and said she's been a rude person since Junior High" Haechan told you from the next room, "Always flirt. Little hitting. Change schools frequently. Well, I'm sorry to say that she's beautiful!"
"Jeez, her track record is so ugly. How can our school accept him?" reply your friend growled.
"Sangnam. Important people live there. My theory, of course, is because of the treasure and the throne. It's much more complicated than just kidnapping," now Chenle is speaking, "Hey, how's the IP address? Have met?"
"Meet! Convert it to its real address. Patience, a little more" you stare at the monitor, which shows a rotating circle, waiting for the results, "Yep, the address falls on Gangnam. I wrote the whole thing in the group. Who's going there? It's probably not gonna be easy."
"Expert climb the wall, Haechan Lee will come along. Who's with me?"
"I've got a bike, better get moving," Jaemin and Haechan quickly get out of his room and let Jeno alone observe the live.
"It looks like this is not a recording, now Eunbyeol is on the screen. Time to go home to school. But, it doesn't seem like she's that careless to keep people at home" Jeno expressed her opinion.
"Sound a voice there. Like a music studio, "Renjun's replacement expressed his opinion.
"closed room. Like a secret room in the movies" Chenle said.
"We have to call the police" Jisung continued.
"If he is the son of someone influential, we must have strong evidence before calling them. Find Mark first, call. Otherwise Eunbyeol could have hidden her before being searched, "You said, "The biling is over soon. Should we catch up with them? Don't have to go in the house, just monitor around there."
"May they be smart enough. I'll have my driver come by car. Keep in communication with Jaemin and Haechan," as soon as Chenle said that, we got out of the PC Bang booth and paid the total cost of renting the 3 cubicles for an hour. Because you really don't know what Haechan and Jaemin are doing you're worried. These are all actually too dangerous for you to handle yourself as a student, not an adult. But how else? One of your friends is in trouble.
Tin! Tin!
A silver Audi Q8 stopped in front of them and honked.
"That's our invitation. Come inside!" exclaim Chenle. Jisung, Renjun, Jeno and the two of you are sitting at the back. Chenle in front.
"You guys fit in there, right? Looks like an excess of people."
"I'm perfectly fine here! We'd better get going" said you sitting in the middle, flanked by your best friend and Renjun.
"I gave you the address, sir. Just drop it around there. Also when we go down don't go straight home" Chenle said to the driver.
"All right, sir."
The car moves immediately, driving you closer to Haechan, Jaemin, and possibly Mark. You keep staring at the phone and exchanging messages with Haechan.
"They haven't found the room yet. He said there were no brown or carved rooms around. A lot of guards too" you told them.
"I will continue to record the video as proof later" Jeno said.
"Have you told them to look for some kind of secret key?" ask Renjun.
"It has. Oh, they saw Eunbyeol coming up from the basement. May they be safe" you said slightly trembling. The danger you face is clearly nothing compared to Haechan and Jaemin right now.
Haechan: One of you should call the police
Haechan: Mark met here
Haechan: Our class president looks pathetic
"I'll call,” said your best friend while calling the police directly.
"They'll be there soon."
"Thank God, we should also hurry there," said Chenle who asked the driver to accelerate the speed of this car. Shortly after, we reached the Gangnam area, around Eunbyeol's house.
"You know what? I found out that his father was a director of a private hospital. Important men? His family is quite a mess .. his father is divorced. It's about his family" Renjun explained what he got after we all went down.
"Pathetic too. Oh, the police are coming!"
Police sirens filled the streets of Gangnam. The car surrounded the 3-story house with that gray paint. They entered after one of the servants allowed them to enter.
Police enter the house.
Hope they find you.
Make a scene there for the police to come.
Haechan: Mark I asked to scream as much as I could.
Haechan: Ohh! I heard the key opened. Ah, his voice seemed to be slightly leaking for the soundproof room.
Haechan: We showed ourselves to the police for trying to save Mark. Maybe we'll get juvenile delinquency punishments, enter people's homes without permission.
I'm sorry for that
We'll be close
You approached the house and your best friend explained the chronology to the police, the reason he called them and why they came here, as well as about Haechan and Jaemin infiltrating Eunbyeol's house. From inside the house, Mark went out with Haechan and Jaemin. Without a cue, you are one thought to hug them, especially Mark.
"Mark Lee is back!" You guys can regroup after 2 tough days.
"You guys are so smart! I didn't think, hahaha. It's good to be playing together" Eunbyeol, who was being led by the police, smiled strangely at you. Your body is a little creepy because of that. But it is important that you rejoin safely, even though you always pray for justice and Eunbyeol, the new boy, is punished according to the law. Not be separated because of his father's treasure and throne.
