the sun spread warmth around the large high school located on the outskirts of seoul, the gentle breeze blowing through the window made the yellow highlighted mullet-haired boy sitting by the window feel sleepy. 

beomgyu yawned, he wondered who would want to know about history hundreds of years ago when people have already lived in the modern world.

"hey choi beomgyu, pay attention to the lecture and don't slack off!", the teacher smacked the ruler on the board.

"whatever", the said boy sighed in annoyance.

the history teacher, mr. baek, gave him a hard glare but let it go nonetheless. a few more minutes passed, with the occasional sound of pen-tapping, the brunette gave up trying to concentrate on the lesson. beomgyu raised his hands.

"sir, may i go to the bathroom?"

the teacher quickly dismissed him, not wanting to deal with any of the boy's antics.

the walk to the restroom was calm and short, as the class is just across the hallway.

the mullet-haired boy silently admired the striking scenery. to say striking was an understatement, as horizon high school institute was a luxurious educational hub known for its well-built infrastructures and facilities made for the rich.

small rays of the radiating sun fell across beomgyu's face resulting in a sun-kissed glow across his already handsome face.

a certain someone was mesmerized.

the brunette, too caught up at the moment to realize, turned around and was met face to face with a red-haired boy.

his face instinctively scrunched up, recognizing the familiar guy.

"what are you doing here? skipping classes again perhaps?", taehyun spoke up.

"what are you going to do about it? snitch again??"

"maybe."

beomgyu always hated taehyun's guts, he thinks he's nothing but a quiet-spoken boring nerd.

the first time they met was when taehyun was on patrolling duty (a sub-unit of the student council that goes around detecting misbehaving students). unfortunately, beomgyu was late to school that day and was spotted by taehyun trying to jump through the fence. and that's how he ended up in the office.

"whatever. i don't care."

beomgyu stormed off to the bathroom, having nothing more to say to the younger.

beomgyu's school report soon was filled with red dashes because of taehyun and perhaps if it weren't for his family's financial condition, he wouldn't have been able to enter college after graduating.

the brown-haired boy's life has also become monotonous as a result of his family's extreme wealth and his possession of whatever he desires.
beomgyu can't find happiness in himself.

he only plays every day and, of course, despises studying. everything he does is done to gain freedom, but beomgyu never stops feeling empty.

he sat there blankly in the bathroom. somehow, there was a black marker in the brunette's pocket. the boy scribbled a bear skateboarding on a hill, holding a sword and lollipop. after drawing, he added a silly wish impulsively out of frustration.
