you're so kind, and that's
something i really love about you.

mark sat at the back of his ap calculus classroom — his last block of the day — shaking his head as he tried to solve a question that his teacher had challenged him to complete.

being one of the top, and most diligent students in the class, mark could solve a question faster than anyone. this meant he would always be able to finish all his homework in class, and not have to worry about it later.

for some reason today, he just couldn't focus. his mind felt clouded with thoughts that weren't his, and whatever he tried to do, they wouldn't leave his head.

it was her.

he was really worried about her.

finally completing the last part of the sequence, mark dropped his pencil on the desk in satisfaction, gradually getting up to take a quick stretch before handing in his homework on the teacher's desk upfront.

grabbing his backpack off of the ground, and he walked out of the classroom with a sigh of relief.

it was finally wednesday, the halfway point in the school week, and normally he couldn't be happier.

as much as everyone at seoul high loved him, mark really did enjoy time away from the crowds to himself.

he walked along the halls past the library, then the computer lab, and the english lecture hall, towards the bathroom.

just as he was about to walk past the gym, he heard a loud scream — which he knew could only belong to the one and only, kim seyeon.

"oops...! it was an accident." he heard a voice call out nonchalantly, though he couldn't tell who it was through the ruckus in the gym.

worried something bad might have happened to seyeon, mark quickly peaked his head through the double doors rather just in time to see miyong collapse on the gym floor unconscious.

without a moment of hesitation, he ran in, pushed past the students, and bent down to meet the girl sprawled on the ground.

"mark? i'm so glad you're here!" seyeon exclaimed, a look of despair evident on her face as she kneeled down on the ground, trying to shake the unconscious girl awake.

"what happened? why is miyong on the floor? she's unconscious! is she hurt too? who did this? — i'm taking her to the nurses office." mark questioned rapidly, grabbing miyong's wrist and checking her pulse.

coach seulgi ran up to the scene as quickly as she could, as the students cleared a way for her. "oh dear, i think that game got a little too intense. we need to bring her to the nurses office as quickly as possible. seyeon will you be able to take her—"

"i'll take her, coach." mark immediately butted in, already looping the girl's limp arm over his shoulder.

"are you sure mark?" seyeon asked nervously glancing at the unconscious girl, afraid to take her eyes away.
