The morning sky above the school courtyard felt hotter than usual. Maybe it wasn't the sun, but the echoing shouts of seniors booming across the field. The orientation week for new students at TXT High School was in full swing, and Choi Yeonjun stood at the front of the crowd with a serious face that didn't match the chaotic thoughts swirling in his head. His uniform was neat, the committee ribbon tied to his arm, and a whistle hung from his neck. From afar, he looked like the perfect example of a strict and disciplined senior. But anyone who really knew Yeonjun would recognize that he was simply holding back laughter. Being on the orientation committee was like being handed free entertainment, especially because of one very specific reason.
Standing somewhere in the middle row of freshmen was a girl with the most innocent and naïve face Yeonjun had ever seen. Her hair was tied in twin pigtails, just like the committee asked, her uniform hung slightly oversized, and her eyes looked a little lost. But only Yeonjun knew that this girl was his girlfriend. His clingy girlfriend. Easily offended. And someone who had a silent rule that if Yeonjun ever embarrassed her in public, he would be sentenced to three full days of silent treatment, no questions asked. Still, Yeonjun couldn't resist the temptation. Teasing her while pretending not to know her in front of everyone was a thrill he just couldn't pass up.
Today was his turn to lead the 'light punishments' for freshmen who gave wrong answers. The committee had set up a chair right in the middle of the circle. And of course, as planned last night, his girlfriend name was on the list. When the girl stepped forward and stood in the center, all eyes were on her. Yeonjun's friends began laughing and giving her silly instructions, singing the national anthem in a robot voice, walking like a duck, and finally, tugging at her own ears while saying she'd be an obedient girl. She shot Yeonjun a sharp look that clearly meant, 'You're sleeping on the floor for a week during sleepcall.'
But Yeonjun wasn't scared. Behind his mischievous grin, he knew his limits. He knew how to play without truly hurting her feelings. This was just their little game. And while everyone still had their eyes on her, Yeonjun spoke up with a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips.
"If you can be this obedient in front of everyone, now I'm really curious… can you keep being this obedient after school too?"
