What… in the actual word in going on?

Wangnan Ja, who just transferred to Tower High School eight months ago, was currently staring at the class window in sheer disbelief of what just happened. As a transferee, Wangnan was well aware that Khun and Bam were the most popular boys in school who were always a hot topic.

He also knew of their unofficial girlfriend who was painstakingly oblivious(?) of their affection, and how everyone refused to believe they weren’t in a relationship. You’d think people would back off when they know the trio was practically smitten for each other, apparently looks triumph over all because that just boosted up their reputation.

Just earlier this morning, he entered the classroom that were swarming with girls trying to give chocolates to the two. There was Bam who just smiled brightly as always, thanking each and every one of them while Khun still had his trademark cold expression.

He had raised an eyebrow skeptical when he saw Evolet's desk was also buried in chocolate for some reason, finding it odd since it was typically girls who gave out the chocolates instead of receiving. The purplette who was always by Bam and Khun's side was nowhere to be found despite having always arrived early to school. Though he could somewhat understand why she wasn’t here with how the two were currently surrounded by fangirls. If that doesn’t get her jealous, he doesn’t know what will. It actually doesn’t and it's the other way around.

It only got weirder when Khun suddenly made the crowd disperse, telling them that he had something to do since Bam was too soft to even turn them away. He noticed how most of them glanced at the mountain of chocolate burying Evolet's desk before reluctantly exiting the classroom. Bam was the first one to sigh in relief, his shoulders slumping as he grabbed several folding bags that he got from who knows where before unceremoniously dumping in all the chocolates on Evolet’s desk in them.

Then Khun was looking at his wristwatch. Counting down from ten to one before Evolet entered the class casually like she hadn’t been almost late and instead was waiting in front of the door this whole time. The bell rang at the exact second she closed the door, as if everything was planned from the start.

It was even weirder when she switched seats with Khun so that she was sitting by the window. Despite being confused, he didn't ask a thing and reined in his curiosity since no one else paid attention to the sudden change. Looking back at it… he really should've asked her earlier.

The reason why he was still staring at the window incredulously was because of what happened once the school bell rang, signalling their break. He hadn't noticed how the majority of the class was focused on the purplette sitting in front of him instead of paying attention to the lesson.

But once the bell rang, all he remembered was the window opening and a stampede of footsteps as the classroom door slammed open. Then Evolet smiled teasingly before she jumped out of the window. Of course, he hurriedly looked outside the window to see if she was fine. But the purplette wasn't anywhere in sight and the other students who rushed here were more frustrated rather than concerned.

"SHE ESCAPED!"

"TEAM A HAS SPOTTED HER NEAR THE CAFETERIA!"

"WHAT?! TEAM C SAID SHE'S NEAR THE GYM!!!"

"SPLIT UP AND FIND HER! THIS YEAR!!! THIS YEAR WE'RE DEFINITELY GONNA CATCH HER!!!"

"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" They screamed out simultaneously, already running away and trying to cover all of the school ground.
