▸ HE never imagined the halls could be so dark during a power outage, eyes squinted as he clutches to the strap of his backpack. He’d be lying to himself if he said he wasn’t at least a bit afraid, his trembling hand reaching out into the abyss in attempts to navigate himself through the building. He’s looking for a light switch, a person, anything to assure him that he isn’t alone. And he’s doing fine until— His body jolts when his ears pick up the faint whisper, and Jeongguk has to actually throw his hand over his mouth to suppress a yelp. “Oh, uh. Right,” he says, doing his best to steady his breathing after his previous scare. “I would but—I can’t see shit.”
Sohye curled her knees to her chest in fear. She never enjoyed the dark, it wasn’t the darkness itself but not knowing what was around you. The light of her phone allowed her to see him much more clearly, flashing a soft smile. “The power’s going to be out for awhile sadly. You can hang here with me if you want. They would have sent officials in here if it was a serious power outage. I think it’s because of the storm outside.” The girl commented, fiddling with her sweat pants. “I’ve seen you around campus but I don’t think you know me despite how many classes we’re in together.”
