Till POV //

the endless scribbles... Mizi....

I flipped through my notebook to find an empty page but it's difficult if all of them are mainly about Mizi.

— "Is Till here?"

I snapped out of it when I heard my name being called out, I glanced up as I somehow struggled to find the teacher.

"H-here...."

The teacher gave me an annoyed sighed as she continued on, I slowly zoned out from the name-calling. It's not my fault, you could speak up more.... I whispered that part to myself.

an empty page. . . i began to sketch. . .

at this point i was too immersed into the point where i couldn't be saved.. kidding obviously, my attention went off the rails when I accidentally knocked off my eraser on the desk.

I placed the eraser back on the desk and noticed my pencil was MISSING! I sort of panicked as I frantically examined the floors, I glanced at the desk beside me then realized someone was sitting beside me —

When did he get here....

"Did you steal my pencil?"

"What gives you that idea?"

"did you or did you not?"

"The chances of me stealing your pencil would be slim.. oh but at the same time very high because—"

"Shut up!"

"Because it would depend if I ran out of led myself while on the other hand I most likely didn't acknowledge anything."

Ivan smiled slyly as he finished his sentence, talk about being such a stupid smartass!

"yeah yeah okay.."

I shifted my focus to the teacher and the ongoing lecture, pretty boring.

//////////////////////////////////

after a few classes it was finally lunch time, I rushed to pack my things and went off like the wind though a hand took ahold of me.

"What the fu—"

"Let's eat lunch together Till!"

and before I could even sputter out a word, I was dragged to the cafeteria practically then blinked my eyes for a millisecond to find myself on the rooftop with Ivan.

"any particular reason for doing all this?"

I peeled the skin off the orange fruit, the juiciness of the slice oozed in my mouth satisfyingly.

"not at all!"

something tells me I shouldn't trust his stupid snag tooth smile, it somehow pissed me off when he was so obnoxiously smug.

"....."

"......"

"You're hard to read... " I sighed as I consumed my orange slices, i snuck some glances at Ivan but made sure I wasn't obvious, this guy does anything for my reaction...

familiar chatter came to the rooftop, I smiled as I recognized that melody from anywhere.

"There you guys are! you practically ditched us by zooming off!!"

"Oh Mizi i'm sure they didn't mean it, fufu."

Mizi and Sua placed their trays near us as they tried making a circle with us, I could feel myself turn red when Mizi was the closest one to me. It was small talk between everyone but I wanted to be more expressive with Mizi, then jackpot! She mentioned something that was interesting... well of course, it's her.

"I heard there's a music club, you should check it out Till! They're looking for a lead guitar as well."

"R-really? I guess i'll check it out once school ends... thank you Mizi!"

"Mhmmm!"

. . .

"Let's go throw away our trays."

"Hm? alright, let's go Sua~!"

Mizi clinged to Sua once they both got up, well to be more accurate she leaned onto her. Mizi is so silly sometimes...

I watched her leave until the door closed behind her, it was now me and Ivan again.. I sipped the milk carton on my tray and let the cool breeze relieve me.

"I think it's good if you join the music club."

"Huh?"

"you have the skills, the talent, I'm sure they'll welcome you guaranteed."

"What are you even talking about?"

"Your face... you seemed rather concerned, it tells me you are unsure if you're eligible to be in the club."

"I- you must be seeing things! of course i'll make it... but thank you, that sort of helps me out."

Ivan chuckled with that stupid ass snag tooth grin, alongside the playful breeze.
