The trio got worried when Mayi didn't resurface. Where is she?

"Mayi! Mayi!" Alex, George, and Richard panicked as they tried to call her.

Nothing...

As panic started to set in, they prepared themselves to dive to rescue her.

She suddenly resurfaced near the edge of the pool and pulled Alex and dove like a mermaid!

George and Richard were shocked as Mayi, once again gained momentum and pulled the two of them in the water.

They were relieved to see her but was shocked by what she did. Who wouldn't be shocked anyway?

"Neo michyeoss-eo?!" Mayi said as she splashed water at the three. While laughing, the three were speechless as they tried to get out of the water. "Oh no, you don't!" Mayi shouted as she pulled them back and pushed them further into the deepest part of the pool.

The three weren't sure if she's mad because but they could sense that she is playing it cool.

She laughed at the sight of the three who are trying to catch her. She did a deep dive and moved to the opposite side of the pool without them noticing.

"Mayi! Come here! We have to get ready for the activities!" Shane called, as he got closer. Mayi nodded and got herself out of the water.

She was soaking wet. She took off her sweater and realized she didn't bring anything to cover herself up. The people gasped as they saw her tattoo, Jun, knowing that she didn't have one last year was shocked as well. It was a phoenix with its wings wide open, it was huge that it covered her entire back.

"Wow, nice tat!" Manager Ken said as he looked at Mayi.

If stares could kill, Jun would have killed him a million times already! He felt angry that people were looking at Mayi. He quickly pulled himself out of the pool and grabbed his shirt to cover Mayi.

Mayi looked at Jun... stunned.

"You'll catch a cold," he said coldly as he looked at her.

"Thanks," Mayi replied.

Shane looked at Mayi with a questioning look.

"Well..." Shane said as he stared at Mayi.

"Shhh~ Don't start sis." Mayi sighed as they went into the main stage to start the games.

As the games would begin, the students gathered and looked at the activities:

Beach Volleyball

Beer Pong

Amazing Race

H.A Got Talent

The first game was Beach Volleyball, they were separated by nationality and by groups. They were having fun as the teachers competed with them as well. It was a close fight between the Japanese group and the teachers. In the end, the teachers lost and have to do a butt spell of their names.

Beer Pong with a Twist! Every time the other group makes a successful shoot, the other group has to drink and has to read a tongue twister as well. The students hated this game but it didn't matter, they had fun. One student even read the tongue twister in a very interesting way.

~~I slit the sheet, the sheet I slit, and on the slitted sheet, I sit.

This was the tongue twister but the student.... "I shit da shit, da shit I shrit, anduh on da sritted shit, I shit." the students laughed so hard that they were on the sand laughing, the student reading it didn't feel embarrassed and even made it louder, the whole place was in an uproar.

As the fun continued Mayi was taking photos of them. They were laughing, smiling, running, playing... everything she took was perfect!

*Click*

A shutter from her left side. She looked and saw Jae Hyuk holding a camera that's pointing towards her.

"Hi!" Mayi said as she looked at him.

"I thought you said you couldn't make it." Jae Hyuk said as he approached Mayi. He wasn't wearing any shirt so Mayi could see his ripped abs and perfect body.

"Uh-huh. I thought so too," she replied as she looked away and focused on taking photos.

"So, are you into photography too?" He said as he gave Mayi a smile. Mayi felt uncomfortable because this scenario was how everything started with her and Jun. She has to think fast about how to get away from this guy!

"N--No, not really," she said, she can feel her voice trembling but she can't show it to this guy.

"But you look so photogenic!" Jae Hyuk said as he showed her a candid photo of hers. She convinced herself that this is just her student being friendly, so she just smiled.

"Nice shot!" She said and gave him a high-five.

She was nervous that things in the past might happen again, but she learned her lesson right? She won't make the same mistake again? She won't fall again?

Lost in thought she looked at the horizon as the sun starts to set.

*Click.*

Another photo was taken from afar.

"Mayi! Get ready for the Amazing Race Game!" Rie shouted. Mayi snapped back into reality and ran onto the stage. The games were full of riddles and the answers to each riddle would lead them to the next clue.

Mayi got herself ready to start the game as the participants were preparing for the game. The clues were scattered around the resort and the teachers were holding some of the clues.

The riddles were quite difficult that the students even asked the managers and the teachers to help them. In the end, only three students were able to finish the game. As a reward, they won a free full body massage and a free pass for the infinity pool when they will visit the resort.

Later that night, a huge bonfire was set up. The stage was lit up and musical instruments were placed there. It's H.A's Got Talent. It was an open event, anyone can show their potential. Each department prepared as well.

The IT and Accounting and Marketing departments sang, the Liberal Arts danced. It was amazing! The students were enjoying every minute. They joined dancing, singing and dance showdown. Everyone was having fun!

"Thank you everyone for this day! I hope you made friends and build bridges. May this quarter be successful and all of you finish your courses in flying colors!" HT said as we ended the day with amazing fireworks.

The three managers thanked Mayi for being their driver. Mayi just smiled at them as she pulled out of the Academy's driveway. She's tired too but she didn't care, she never expected to actually enjoy this day! She hoped that this year will yield a different result from last year.

As she was nearing the highway, a phone call got her attention...

[Calling: Manager Ken]

"Yes, manager? What is it?" she asked,

[Mayi??!!] Ken replied. [You have Jun's phone?!]

"Huh??" she replied, she looked at the phone again and realized it wasn't hers! The model was the same but the color was different. It was Jun's! "Uhm, he left in in my car. Sorry, I thought it was mine. Is he still there in the driveway? I'll drop it there now." Mayi quickly said. She scratched the back of her neck, damn it! She told herself.

[He was worried that he left it at the resort. Are you sure you will drop it now?] he asked.

"Sure, I'll be there in a few minutes," she replied, she hung up and was shocked to see Jun's wallpaper. It was their photo! The same photo she has on her table! She shook off the feeling of excitement in her heart. And just drove back to the academy.

Little did Mayi know, Jun left his phone on purpose.

"Where is he?" Mayi asked the guard as she parked her car at the driveway again. The guard told her that he was on the rooftop. She calmly went to the rooftop of the Academic Building.

She looked around and saw Jun sitting on one of the gazebos. She approached him and laid his phone on the table. "Here's your phone."

Jun just looked at Mayi. An awkward silence followed...

"Well, I better get going. I'll return your shirt on Monday." Mayi said as she backed away.

As she turned around, a warm hug enveloped her. She felt like her heart stopped beating. Jun just hugged her tight and felt him breathing on her neck.

"Wh--what are you doing?" Mayi asked as she tried to escape from Jun's embrace. He made his hug tighter like he wasn't planning on letting her go. There was a long silence, just the two of them breathing.

"I missed you," Jun said under his breath.

Mayi was quiet, she wanted to hug him and kiss him and say that she missed him too.

"I miss my old self too," she said as she escaped Jun's hug and ran as fast as she can back to her car.

There and then, tears started to uncontrollably flow from her eyes.
