MONSTER ─ Girl From Nowhere

2.1 Apologies

ㅤ"Hey, guys!"

A few heads turned to the source of the voice they both heard, two pairs of eyes landing on the person who interrupted their practice session. The male paused for a moment to catch his breath, panting as he did so.

"Where were you? You skipped practice again." One of the guys he interrupted spoke up, looking at him with an accusatory look.

He grinned in response, "There is a new girl. She's in classroom B."

Now that must have caught their attention in a good way, as the sides of their lips turned up to form a grin.

"Classroom B?"

"Is she pretty?"

"Didn't we just have a new transfer last week? Isn't she in classroom B too?"

The other male smirked, "Would I be telling you about her if she wasn't pretty? Now, we've got two eye candies to look at. Let's go!" He ushered his friends to follow him. Sharing his enthusiasm, both of them clamored behind him as they all ran to classroom B to take a look at the newest transfer student.

"Let's go! What are we waiting for?"

With how fast they ran and how athletic they were, they reached the classroom fairly quickly. They immediately shuffled closer to the window and tried to take a peek through the blinds. "Which one?"

"That one!" One of them pointed, referring to Nanno. The other two hummed and grinned as they inspected her beauty. "She's my type. She's exactly my type."

"You get her, I get Ireshi!"

"Now, now, let's not go that far-"

"What about Nan?" The other male interrupted.

"What about Nan?" He scoffed, "No one else matters anymore."

"But I found out her name first! She must be mine then."

"What the heck?"

"What's her name?"

The three of them suddenly quieted down as they heard someone walking down the hallway. They turned around to see who it was and saw Ireshi, simultaneously swooning at the sight of her. As usual, she let her long, black hair down and wore cute accessories such as a pink headband and pink heart-shaped earrings that dangled from her ear. Of course, she wore the standard uniform that the school requires her to, but she makes it look like it's something new. Her body type fills out the blouse much better than the other girls do, one of them thought to himself.

Snapping out of their daze, they immediately clamored behind her to ask if they could help with carrying her things but, as usual, she ignored them. Only rolling her eyes at the mere sight of them, but this didn't put a damper to their mood at all. They believed that if they kept trying, she'll eventually want them.

Ireshi, on the other hand, felt absolutely repulsed. Not only was she running late because her stupid alarm clock didn't wake her up, now she's got three idiots begging for her to spare them an ounce of her attention. 'Can't they just take the hint already?'

"Can you three stop bothering miss Ireshi already!?" A voice boomed from the other end of the hallway, catching the four's attention almost immediately. They saw the coach of their basketball team walking towards them at a brisk pace, definitely ready to give them the scolding of a life time. Ireshi mentally thanked him and slipped out of the situation, quickly walking towards her classroom.

"Oh, how nice of you to finally join us, miss Ireshi."

Ireshi's cheeks turned a light shade of pink as she looked down in embarrassment, "Sorry, ma'am. It won't happen again."
