Taehyun cracked his drowsy eyes open and slapped a hand over his beeping alarm clock , plunging the room into silence again . He was working overnight and had hardly received a wink of life due to the soreness in his body . He was exhausted and worn out .

He shuffled deeper inside his comforter and closed his eyes again planning to doze off till afternoon but somehow he was unable to fall back asleep again . After twisting and turning restlessly on his bed , he groaned in irritation and dragged himself out . He took a quick hot shower hoping it will help in relaxing his tense muscles and stumbled out of his bathroom dying his damp , blonde hair with a spare towel .

First beams of sunlight were peeking inside through the tiny gaps between curtains and sprinkling inside his room , enveloping it in a newborn warmth and luster . Taehyun threw the towel on the floor and his eyes landed on his school's uniform disregarded carelessly alongside it .

Taehyun eyebrows scrunched his eyebrows as he squatted down and grabbed his creased school's shirt . 'Should he go to school . 'This sudden thought struck Taehyun causing a frown to settled down . Just then his phone chimed with a new notification , it was a message . 

Taehyun drew his eyebrows together as his gaze swept over his screen , his expressions becoming stoic as he read ,

 " Tonight ,  be there with the stuff , the usual one ... " 

Taehyun released a heavy sigh and tossed his shirt on the bed , as he pondered about his decision . His school lies in the route to Star5 where he has to pick up the stuff from and then deliver it by evening . Maybe he should go school afterall ,it will save his travel time .

" Maybe he should n't have ...." Taehyun dreaded regretfully as soon as he stepped inside the classroom and received shocked and bewildered glances from everyone . The teacher stopped midway between the lecture she was ranting about and exclaimed surprisingly , " Kang Taehyun you ?? I can't believe my eyes seriously . Come in , come in and take a seat . "

Taehyun forced himself not to roll his eyes in response to the over exaggerated reaction from his teacher and stomped towards his seat . On his way Jaesun greeted him with a small salute and the rest of his friends nodded their heads in acknowledgement . Taehyun collapsed upon his seat and slumped tiredly upon it , ready to take a nap but he felt a bit strange , like someone was staring constantly at him . He jerked his head upwards and was met with a pair of cold , ashen eyes that were glaring right though him .

Beomgyu's gaze did n't waver when Taehyun caught him staring red handed . His sharp , pale face remained expressionless , his deep grey eyes burning into Taehyun's before he broke the fiery eye contact and turned back . 

" So I have checked your Mathematics test and most of you performed horribly . I am so disappointed , come and take these when I call out your names and get them signed by your guardians by tomorrow . " The teacher declared in a high , squeaky voice as she began distributing the papers among the students who grimaced and scowled on seeing their mark sheets . 

When her eyes scanned the next paper , a heavy sigh escaped her rosy lips as she mumbled sarcastically , " So , again our Taehyun performed brilliantly as ever , its a zero . This time he even didn't bother to write his name . " Taehyun released a puff of breath as he strolled towards her leisurely . She shot him a deadly gaze while shoving that blank sheet on his chest and blurted angrily , " Meet me in the staff room after this period. Am I clear ? " Taehyun did n't bother to respond back and marched back to his seat . 

" Ok , next is Jaesun . " Her forehead creased as he skimmed through the paper and her lips tightened when she glimpsed at Jaesun . Her voice was low and laced in disappointment , " What's wrong with you , it seems you weren't prepared well . Jaseun ahh you can do much better . Study next time . " Jaesun's eyes were bulged out in shock as he snatched the papers from her hands , his gaze trailing over each and every sentence like a hawk .
