chapter 5 | Texting

My message is already seen, and she is typing. It is almost like she was waiting for this.

< it's fine, don't worry. It's not your fault. Don't feel bad, you could have given it to me ]

[ well, I had to rewrite it because I was asking for your name but since I heard it when the teacher said it, I'd have felt stupid >

< ah alright. Well, I'd have understood ]

[ anyways, how are you? Is your laptop working? >

< im not really fine ahah my laptop is dead, so yeah. But what about you? ]

[ damn, I'm so sorry. I'm doing okay. Didn't the teacher say anything about it? >

< he did. He said he will try to find a way to get me a computer, so I hope I'll get one because I cannot work without any ]

[ yeah, I hope too >

< I saw you struggling with yours earlier though ]

[ don't tell you saw my hand shaking please ;-; >

< I'm sorry but I did ahah ]

[ ㅠㅠ I'm even more embarrassed >

< don't be lmao, I always shake for no reason ]

[ yeah but I was shaking because I was nervous in front of you so I kinda embarrassed myself >

< what are you saying? That's cute. And why would you even be nervous? Am I scary or something lmao? ]

[ not scary, just, you know, the way you stare at me and all...you cute >

< have you seen the way you stare at me? -_- you're the one who makes me nervous ]

[ me? I'm glad I do then >

< you're mean ]

[ I'm joking ahah I just like to know I'm not the only feeling like that >

< you indeed aren't ]

I smile but do not know what to continue with, so I wait to see if she is going to send another message but peek up at my best friends. They are already copying the pages while I am just chatting.

I lay all my attention on my phone a little more to make sure I don't leave her on read.

[ can we talk tonight? I gotta work right now >

< sure, text me whenever you want to. I have to work too anyway ]

[ ok, I will >

I wait a few seconds once the message is seen to make sure she does not send anything more and that I might miss it. Once I am certain that she left to work, I do the same and put my phone down. I take my notebook and take one of the pages to write it.

8 pm.

I enter the room after tiring myself at the library, and I leave my shoes at the door. "Wow. You're so late today," my roommate, who is studying on his bed, mentions, and I move to my bed to drop my body on it and moan out of satisfaction. "Dude...I just wanna sleep right now. I had to help Hojun and wrote so much. My hand actually hurts..."
