The sound of typing fills the small confines of the room. Glasses slid down the bridge of your nose as you frantically try to finish your assessment on time.

"When am I going to stop procrastinating" you mumbled under your breath.

You stood up from your desk and started stretching this is when you noticed the time, 00:30, deciding you have enough time you left your room to get something to eat. You sneaked into the kitchen so that your parents aren't disturbed.

You passed by the bathroom and an image of yourself catches your eye, you stop and go to take a closer look. You gasp in horror at the state of you were in, your soft hair was sticking out at random angles, you had dark bags under your eyes and it made your eyes look more darker than it was. You furrowed your brow as you tried to pat down your messy head. 

"Looks fine now, i guess" you adjust your glasses and head towards the kitchen. swiftly you grabbed some snacks that will fuel you for the rest of your long night.

~~~

The sun shone brightly in your eye waking you up. You groan as you check the time, 7:00.

"...why am i such a light sleeper" wiping the saliva from your mouth, you got ready for school. Fortunately your school wore uniform so you don't need to plan what to wear. After you were dressed you headed for the kitchen. 

Your mother stood there in a white frilly apron, you greeted her by slightly nodding your head at her as you took a seat at the table. 

"morning Y/N" she greeted and passed me a mug of coffee "you should brush your hair, it looks like a bird nest"

"yea..." you patted your head down a little and then got up. you grabbed your bag and waved to your mom as you walked out the door.  Shoving your hands in your pocket you silently walked to school, that was till your best friend met up  with.

"Y/N look at the state of your hair!" 

"I heard that already Kirumi" you waved her hands off your head.

"You look terrible, what project are you walking on now" Kirumi sighed as looked at the state you were in.

Your eyes seemed to sparkle as you started explaining. "I got a new job that came in and I was so excited for it but..." averting your eyes "...i forgot to start"

"So you rushed last night to finish it?" Kirumi finished for you.

"yea..." you loved working as a freelancing graphic designer but you have a hard time meeting deadlines. You always sleeping late which makes Kirumi worry about you constantly.

You and Kirumi chatted as you made your way to school. You parted ways as you both are in different classes.

You bumped into someone which caused you to fall backwards, they reached out and caught you before you hit the ground.

"I-i'm so sorry" a soft voice spoke out, you glanced up at the boy and instantly noticed his spikey white hair. Your eyes sparkled as you seemed to imagine how it feels. This caused the boy to blush and look away. " w-why are you looking at me so intensely" 

" oh sorry" you blushed sheepishly and then mumbled "your hair looked soft..."

"O-OH!" he seemed easily embarrassed you mentally noted. You noticing the awkward atmosphere decided to leave.

"Anyway, i'm gonna miss class, thanks for catching me, bye bye"  you said and then jogged towards your class. You left the boy there speechless.

"strange..."
