Chapter 121 - Song Ji Hun's Help

Few months later.

It has been a few months since Kiaraa started her Business Management course at Seoul National University.

It was a smooth ride for her as she quickly got accustomed to her surroundings and immediately made some good friends.

Given her amazing grades and personality she quickly became popular among her peers.

Although Ian and Song Ji Hwan were in the same university as her, it was not possible to catch up with one another or meet each other frequently as they were all in different departments with different schedules not making it a feasible option to be always around each other.

Therefore, Kiaraa spends all her time with her new found friends and rarely with the other two guys. 

Though she came across Song Ji Hun multiple times as they both were in the same department, they barely acknowledged each other's presence and acted like total strangers.

One day Kiaraa and her friends were preparing for the upcoming major exam when one of the guys in her group said, "Guys, I have an extremely bad news to share with you all"

Another guy joked, "What happened? Why are you being so dramatic?"

The first guy looked serious and replied, "When you hear what I have to say, you won't be smiling like this."

The second guy laughed, "Okay, Okay, share your bad news with us, I will stop laughing."

The first guy turned serious and revealed, "Every year in this upcoming major exam, there is always an important section in every of our core subjects where there are questions which are not a part of our syllabus. These questions are of course related to our field but they are not textbookish."

"What is so big deal about it? It is natural for us to have various types of questions in the exam, we are in SNU not in some first grade." Kiaraa mocked the guy.

Everyone present there laughed in unison after hearing Kiaraa's mocking.

The first guy scoffed, "You guys can laugh all you want but the truth is this section carries the highest weightage and many of our seniors suffered due to it"

"Okay fine, this is a very big problem and I am ready to take you seriously but instead of just sharing the problem, I would be in your support if you can share some solution." Kiaraa said to the guy.

The first guy smiled in satisfaction and proudly nodded his head, "I do have a solution."

He then looked at his friends seriously and said, "Our super seniors have case studies and notes on 90% of the possible important questions that would be asked in the exam. Even if it is not exactly the same question, the concept is the same and having those notes with us is enough for us to successfully crack this examination."

One of the girls in the group sarcastically asked him, "And why would any of our super seniors would help us? Do you now see the problem?"

"Chill, that's why I am talking to you people to find the solution to this problem. If we all think seriously, I am sure we will be able to come up with some solution."

Everyone in the group looked at this guy unbelievably as they felt what he wants will never happen as their super seniors are not very friendly and they rarely interact with them. 

…

Few weeks later some of the first year Business Management Students gave a mock test using previous year's question paper just as a practice among themselves and that's when Kiaraa and some of her friends realized how tough this additional section truly was.

That's when they remembered one of their friends informing them about the same a few days ago, which at that time they didn't take seriously.

Kiaraa and all her friends therefore gathered in the canteen which is their common hang-out spot.

"Guys, as you know some of us had taken a mock test using previous year's question paper and believe me, what 'Glasses' said was right." Kiaraa seriously informed her group.

These people address one of their friends as 'Glasses', because he wears big round glasses.

Every member in this group has a funny pet name and instead of being called by their real names their friends use these pet names to address each other.

Glasses proudly folded his hands in front of his chest, pushed his glasses which were on the bridge of his nose above and smirked at his friends, "I told you so"

"Okay, understood. We need our super seniors' help if we want to ace the upcoming exams with flying colors but the problem still remains the same. Why will any of our super seniors bother to help us?" One of the girls reminded them of the root of their concern.

Glasses said, "In the past few days, I tried to approach a few of our Super seniors but they were mean and obviously didn't bother themselves with my request."

"Wow, Why do these people have to be mean? Only because they have been here for three years doesn't mean they will look down on us." One of the girls got agitated.

"Relax drama queen, when we will be in their position, we too are going to be the same." One of the guys tried to calm her down.

Kiaraa, who had been seriously thinking about something, finally spoke,"Guys, let's think about some solution this weekend and let us meet on monday and continue this discussion."

Kiaraa stood up from her seat and checked the time on her watch, "It's getting late, I need to go."

All her friends too agreed with her as it was late evening already they bid adieu to each other everyone left.

…

Kiaraa was sitting in the back seat of the car thinking, 'Should I approach Song Ji Hun and ask for his help? Would it be acquired as I rarely interact with him? Suddenly, if I approach him for his notes for selfish reasons, what will he think of me? Not like I care about what he thinks of me but it is still weird to ask for his help. Ahhh, why didn't I maintain good relations with this guy? My life would have been a hell lot easier if I at least was on talking terms with him. I am such a selfish bitch that I am not going to inform my friends about me knowing about Song Ji Hun and maybe this is how Karma is getting back at me by not letting Song Ji Hun help me despite our families being so close. Ahhh, why is my life so complicated? Anyway, I can't give up without trying. I have to keep my ego aside and beg for Song Ji Hun's help if needed. How should I approach him? Maybe Song Ji Hwan can help me." 

The next second' Kiaraa, took out her phone and called Song Ji Hawn 

After a few rings, he finally answered her call, "hey Kiaraa, whats up?"

"Hwan, I need a huge favour from you, can we meet?"

"I am at a cafe fiasco, can you drop by?" Song Ji Hwan asked her

"Yes, it is on my way, I can reach there in about 10 minutes." Kiaraa informed him

"Cool, i'll wait" 

Kiaraa reached there in 10 minutes and rushed inside the cafe, she found Song Ji Hwan  at one of the tables and joined him.

"Hwan, I need a huge favour from you." kiaraa desperately joined her hands in front of Song Ji Hawn. 

Song Ji Hwan laughed at her state and asked, "what happened? Why do you look so worried?"

Kiaraa informed him of the whole scenario. 

Song Ji Hwan laughed even more loudly and helplessly shook his head, "you acted like you were going through a huge crisis but your problem is so trivial."

"What do you mean?" Kiaraa looked confused seeing Song Ji Hwan reacting so coolly to her problem.

"The solution to your problem is very simple, approach my brother and ask him for his notes." Song Ji Hwan casually said.

"As if it is that easy" Kiaraa rolled her eyes, hearing his so-called simple solution.

"Why not?"

"Super seniors are mean and he might refuse to help me." Kiaraa shared her thoughts.

"Kiaraa, I know my brother better than anyone in this world. He will share all his notes with you and if needed he will even help clear your doubts if any" Song Ji Hwan wished for Kiaraa to spend some time with his brother this way so that Song Ji Hun can have a chance to be closer to her.

"Are you sure?" Kiaraa looked skeptical and still had her doubts.

"Of course, tomorrow is Saturday, he will be home. My mom and dad are on a business trip and our grandpas went on a tour. So, only me and Hyung will be home. You come to our house and ask for his help, if he refuses, I'll jump in.." Song Ji Hwan suggested and Kiaraa quickly agreed as she liked this plan.
