In Your Head- Jilix

3

As soon as I wake up, I run to get ready. I'm early, noon not even ringing, but I still have to prepare a little test to know his level. I can't teach him colors if he already knows them, and I'm not going to teach him how to analyze a text if he can't even understand it.
I put on black jeans and a simple white shirt a little too big for me and comb my hair after taking a long, hot, shower. I make myself a pot of instant noodles and go up to my room, my parents being at work. I take out a notebook, which I choose on purpose for Han, and write the exercises while eating, doing a few broth stains here and there without really paying attention.
Time flies a lot faster than I expected and I'm almost late. I run into the house to pack my things, grab my coat and keys, and storm out, locking the door behind me.
I arrive at the cafe, Jisung is waiting for me in front of it and gives me a big smile when he sees me. Did he recognize me? How?

- Sorry for the delay, I was...

He smiles at me.
- No need to find an excuse, I just arrived.
I rub the back of my neck and he gestures for me to come in.
- I'm inviting you, what do you want?

I shake my head.
- It's nice, Han, but I'm fine!

He sighs and rolls his eyes. Did I say something wrong? He turns to me with a smirk.

- You didn't say anything bad, excuse me for sighing but why are you calling me by my last name when we are the same age?
I blush, not knowing what to say.
- Call me Jisung, please.
I nod and he walks over to the counter.
- Two Ice Americanos, please.

- How did you know I wanted one?

He chuckles.
- Do not imagine things, it's my favorite drink so I said to myself that you necessarily liked it. My tastes are indisputable! Come on, let's sit down!

I follow, chuckling at his comment. I pull out my notebook and pens as Jisung puts away his change. I then notice the countless greasy spots on the sheets and, although it is still readable, I blush with shame.

- Uh... I wanted to make you do a little test to assess your level...

He turns to the notebook in question and laughs out loud.
- Did you have a little accident while eating? Don't worry, I do everything at the last minute too, but I wasn't expecting that from the little nerd at school!
I pout, annoyed by the words of the redhead.
- Sorry, sorry.
He stops laughing.
- I didn't want to upset you. It's really cool that you are good in class, I would love to be too! But it's true that it's reassuring to see that you're not perfect either!
He winks at me and I smile slightly.
- Well! Give me this notebook, let's get it over!

The waitress arrives with our drinks and I take a long sip of mine, surprised to see Jisung answering questions fairly quickly. I then get a message in question 6 and read it, thinking he doesn't need me right now. It's Changbin who invites me to a tango dancer competition... I often have trouble knowing if he's joking. I gently decline his invitation and look at Jisung's progress. Question 6, always. However, it isn't more complicated than the others, it is even simpler than the previous two. I'm amazed.

- You need help ?
As I ask him the question, he writes the answer faster than his shadow before giving a huge smile.
