Felix's POV

" So what's your name? " I asked the guy next to me but he simply ignored me after getting an answer out of me.

I sighed as I walked over to him, trying to see his name tag. He yanked my arm away, " Kim Seungmin. " He scowled when I said his name.

" I'm Felix. " I shot him a grin.

" Don't you have Korean name? " I nod.

I looked over at my name tag, " Felix. " I said slowly in my Korean pronunciation.

" Isn't this Korean name? " He shook his head.

" I mean, Lee something. " Seungmin said.

I nod, " Lee Felix is my Korean name. " I replied and he was about to slander me on the spot. I let out a sigh as I nod.

I placed my arm over his shoulders, " Didn't want to talk about it but since we're friends, I shall share with you. " He furrowed his brows.

" Since when are we friends? " I gently smacked his arm while smiling.

I eyed him, " We now know each other's name and we're talking so why are we not friends? " Before he could react, I told him my Korean name.

" I don't want people to start calling me Lee Yongbok after being called Felix for all my life. I don't even think anyone called me that other than when I was born. " I pursed my lips.

Seungmin furrowed his brows, " Why can't you get used to the name? After a while you'd get used to it anyways. " I let out a sigh.

He didn't get what I meant so I went back to my seat and just sat down there. " Alex! Alex! Alex! " I screamed several times.

I walked over to him, " Alex, why didn't you reach to me when I called Alex? " He frowned as he looked up at me with a face of confusion.

" I'm not Alex. " He replied.

I smiled, " That's how I feel about my Korean name. " He stared at me blankly.

I was about to return to my seat when Haru came back in. " Seoyul wants to talk to you. She's waiting at the room next, next to our class. " I nodded.

When I walked over to the empty room near our classroom, I pulled opened the door and I saw Seoyul sitting on the chair. " Hello. Do you like my new hair? I dyed it black. " I said as I wave while closing the door behind me.

Seoyul crossed her arms across her chest, " Why are you here? Are you here to make my life a living hell because I went against you? " She raised her brows.

" Your imagination is wild but no. " I said.

I walked over to her, " I came here because for once, I want to focus on my education and also, to apologise to you. "

" Out of so many schools? Why don't you go back to your previous school? " She stared at me in disbelief.

" Because you're not there and I want to apologise to
you for my behaviour? " She stood up and was about to leave when I grabbed onto her wrist.

I looked over at her, " You might think I'm rude to my parents and I'm sorry for my actions the other day but you don't know what happened between me and my family. "

" You don't have to explain to me because I'm not anyone important to you. " She yanked my hand away but I grabbed onto her hand again.

" You're important to me. In fact, you're one of the most important person in my life. You made me see what I needed to see. You're like a lighted light bulb and I'm a dark room. " I said, cringing a little.

I gulped as I pulled her over to the chair and made her sit down before explaining to her. " They send me to Korea when I was 13 because I wanted to pursue music and they wanted me to take over their business. " I sighed.

" I was left alone in Korea when I was 13, they just threw me some money and arranged a house and school for me. They didn't even bother keeping contact with me. " I scoffed.

" Strangely, I see their assistant more as a family to me than them because I speak more to him than them. " I laughed coldly as I walked over to the table next to her's.

I shrugged, " I'm done explaining. If you don't see why I have a hatred towards them then let's live our own lives and I won't bother you anymore. I'll pretend I don't know you. " I was about to walk out when she called out my name.

I smiled slightly before turning behind to look at her. Seoyul pursed her lips, " Hey, must you make it sound so sad? And it's impossible to just pretend that we don't know each other. " She smiled slightly.

" Is it just me or does this seem like a drama scene? " I asked as I walked over to her.

She scoffed, " Dream on, jerk. " She crossed her arms as she pushed passed me.

I chuckled as I walked out after her.

Seoyul's POV

After lessons has ended and it's finally time for lunch break, I walked over to Felix's desk. " The food that I previously brought to the hospital are all from the school cafeteria. " He nodded.

" Let's go. " He said as he stood up.

He eyed me, " Are you not going to go? "

" Are we even eating together? " I furrowed my brows.

" Are we not? " He replied.

We stood there for a good few seconds, staring at each other blankly and not knowing what we should do or say. " Let's eat together! The more the merrier! " Haru said as she cling onto my arm.

" Come on, best friend. " Felix cling onto Seungmin's arm as Haru and I stared at them in disbelief.

Seungmin shot us an uncomfortable look on his face while Haru and I chuckled. " A little help here? " He tried to get out of his grip but failed.

" You know my biggest secret, so we're now best friends. " Felix said.

Seungmin groaned, " You told me willingly even when I didn't want to know! " Felix ignored him as he pushed passed us.

" Where's the cafeteria? " I point at the opposite direction and he dragged Seungmin over while Haru and I walked behind the clingy couple.

When we got to the cafeteria, girls were talking about Felix. They were whispering among themselves while pointing towards our direction.

We were walking to the queue when someone came up to Felix out of sudden.

She stood right in front of him, " I don't know who you are but here, this is for you and I hope we'll know each other from now on. " She grinned as she held out a bar of chocolate.

Felix stared at her with Seungmin next to him. He eyed the chocolate before walking away.

Just as he was walking passed her, he stopped.

" You're right. We don't know each other and I hope it stays the same. "
