"Ah Matthew I really don't wanna go to math class today.." I groaned.

Me and Matthew were walking out of 1st period, going to my locker because I had so many things to put away.

"Why?" He asks.

"Because todays the day we get our assignment back.." I said as he put his arm around me. "Don't worry gyubin, I'm sure you did fine. It was pretty easy anyways." He says

"That makes me feel even worse! It was easy for you but so hard for me and that means I'm below average." I say.

"I can't tell if you dissed me or yourself." Matthew says while opening my locker.

"Obviously me?? You know how I suck at math." I say, putting my books away.

"Oh right.. like last year when you got a 43 on your-" I covered his mouth. "There's people here! Do you wanna embarrass me.." I mumble, taking my hand away.

"Sorry.. but you should probably get a tutor or something. That helped me in the eighth grade." He closed the locker and we started walking to math class.

"You know, I can't really afford a tutor. Since my mom is a single parent and I don't know if she would agree.." I start.

"Oh.. that's fine gyubin. I can help you with whatever you're struggling with." Matthew says, giving me an idea.

"Wait.. why don't you just be my tutor for now?" I stopped walking, facing him.

"Me? Oh.. Yeah I guess I could!" Matthew says and we start to walk again. "Should I ask the teacher or something?" I shrugged. "I don't think we need to tell him."

"Alright.. at lunch break I'll start. And I also have an extra math textbook at home so I'll bring it tomorrow." He says to me.

"Thank you so much Mattchu I owe you." I said to him, entering the class. "No worries, that's what friends are for!" Matthew smiles and we take out seats.

Even though I came up with the idea, I kind of felt bad. I mean, he would definitely rather hang out with Jiwoong at lunch break instead of teaching me things I should already know. Gosh.. am I being a bad friend right now? I really hope I'm not. Maybe I should tell him I can find somebody else.

"Okay class, when I call your name, please come up to me to get your mark." The class yells 'yes'.

"Seok Matthew." Mr. Kim announced first. "Good luck mattchu!" I mouthed to him as he got up. A few more people got called and then it was my turn.

"Kim Gyuvin." I reluctantly went up to the desk, taking my paper but not looking at it.

"So what'd you get? Lemme see." Matthew says as I sat back down. "First show me yours." I said as he took his paper out. '89' the red numbers were written.

"Ah, you did so good. I'm too scared to check mine.." I said nervously. "Gyubin it's fine, it's not a test or anything." He said to me as I felt a little more reassured.

"Right.." I mutter, turning the paper around.


'24'

"Oh my god.. you've got to be joking." Before Matthew could say anything, I felt someone take the paper out of my hands.

"Haha what is this.. Kim Gyuvin got a 24? Pfft."
