11. Start From The Beginning

[ 11 ]

The boy quietly sat in the busy halls, eyes never leaving the ground, hoping to get at least a second of peaceful silence before class starts.

He decided to use his earphones to block out the sounds and even fixed his hood to cover every single strand of his hair and some of his forehead too.

In the deafening noises, there was a voice that stood out to him. He looked up, slightly peeked from his hood to see a purple haired boy smiling brightly with his deep dimples.

The boy who was always on his mind. The boy who was the epitome of beauty itself. The boy who was perfect in every way.

He bitterly smiled and watched as the group of friends with unique haircolours disappeared from the hallway on the ring of a bell.

He knew he had no chance but one can still dream right. Or is that right gonna be taken away from him as well.

.

Mrs. Kim was in her usual mood. Throwing off a few insulting comments to her students every now and then.

Announcing another project which had to be performed in pairs. The boy didn't have energy for any social interaction.

But he needs to do it to get a good grade. And he needs good grades to continue his scholarship.

So might as well suck it up like Mrs Kim said.

But of course something had to happen that would make him stand out in a crowd of people.

Mrs. Kim had to forget his name.

Much to his dislike, the boy had to raise his to gain not just Mrs. Kim's attention but, the whole class's.

The boy only realised who his seatmate is after the purple haired boy randomly took his seat beside him.

"I'm choi soobin"

"yeonjun"

"I know" the boy looks taken aback at the fact that someone knows his name.

"I mean I know because Mrs. Kim said our names earlier"

He gives small nod not wanting to talk much but that didn't seem to work because the boy in front of him seems to be very excited.

"-then maybe you can have lunch with us more often"

A chance to spend time with the person that he's mostly looking at from a far. He would never let that opportunity go "sure I guess"

.

Throughout his life since middle school, this is probably the first time the boy has company during lunch, extremely awkward company to be precise.

But he doesn't mind as long as the people in there don't mind.

He gets introduced and the others looked shocked to see a new guest. Two people gave small welcoming smiles while one brunette kept shooting daggers at him through his eyes.

It was gonna be a long uncomfortable lunch if the boy spent anymore time with these new people so he thought it was best to leave "I'm gonna leave early for class"

.

Another day in class with his new seatmate, the boy was excited but he had to keep inside to not look like a creep.
