Wat sighs depressingly eyeing up the exam board in front of the class. On each boy's assigned desk was a plain booklet and paper in bold red letters spelling out EXAM. Something he was dreading.

You see Wat doesn't mind studying, but he hates the subjects his parents forced him to be in. If they knew he was interested in film making, especially indie films, they would flip out.

No one knows except his two best friends, Kan and Akk.

Kan turns around looking at the loopy friend, stressing out about finals, per usual. While the other friend sitting by the windowsill writing away with his hand as quick as he can, Akk was looking confident. He's top student. Exams are as easy to him as walking.

"Wat cheer up." Kan bellows at his friend. Wat scorns out. "I know, no need to tell me." He points out picking up the ink pen.

Raising an eyebrow sighing out. "Why would it kill you to tell your parents how you really feel?"
Wat points his daggers at him, as if it were the most obvious reason.

"I come from a family full of Engineers and freaking doctors. You think my family would like the fact their only son is becoming a low budget screen writer?"

Wat reprimands back stressfully and Kan only stares, deadpanned and in disbelief. Family expectations ... those hurt the most. Akk shifts bringing himself forward pushing the booklet and paper in. He was finished already and looking at his two friends who seem far from done, he smirks tapping Kan and Wat's shoulders.

Akk teases forward, with a goofy smile. "Less talking more action guys, come on!"

"There comes the hermit virgin." Kan sang. Akk turns to him with a glare before reaching forward headlocking Kan in his arms. Kan struggles tapping on the arms.

"I'll show you hermit!" Akk says.

Wat laughs at his friends childish behaviour. The laughter dimming down when a teacher, coming out knocking by the door bringing all students in the class to silence and their upmost focus ravelling to the woman.

"Kan, where is the file for today's philosophy homework?" The strict teacher with bronze skin and honey brown hair states firmly. Kan lightly gulps.

Wat and Akk look at their friend already knowing that he must've forgotten it. There goes another detention for Kan because he is the most forgetful person.

"I...my dog ate it miss!" Kan stands up pointing at Akk.

Akk hisses at the joking that all students laughed at. The teacher did not however. He slaps Kan's head from behind, whispering. "Very funny man. You forgot your homework file again." Akk said and Kan sighs.

"Kan let's talk outside. Now."

Kan goes out with the teacher only to be scolded. Leaving the class the students went back to being chatty, some were studying in the free period they have, while others were catching up with friends. Wat and Akk were focusing on revising for the exam. The exam that Wat never wanted. Never asked for. Never wished to be in and study.

Thua walking inside the classroom, it caught the two boys attention as they wave their attention bringing the class President forward.

"Where did Kan go?" This questions and Wat points out. "Your boyfriend is an idiot. Forgot his homework file for the third time this week."

Thua raises his eyebrows innocently. "It was in my blazer." He raises his hands out pushing the file out for the computer. "He left it at my house..." He whispers to the boys.

"I'll bring it to the teacher." Akk volunteers grabbing the file. Shaking his head. Wat stands up quickly. "I'm joining you. I want to get away from this goddamn paper." Wat whines.
