Red String?

I came to class and I didn't see Sohyun's figure in the seat next to me. Maybe she's still playing guitar in the Warehouse. I tried to prepare a strategy to befriend her.

The teacher for the next lesson has arrived. He immediately registered first. Like other teachers in general.

"Park So Hyun? Park Sohyun isn't there?" The other class members were also confused because of the absence of Sohyun's figure.

"Strange... even though this is her favorite lesson" What lesson is this?

"Hey... um hey" I whispered to my friend in front of me.

"Hey um..."

"Soomin"

"Yes Soomin. What lesson is this?" I asked her in a whisper so as not to be seen as chatting.

"Art" I nodded and thanked her.

"Yooyeon, where is Sohyun?" Before Yooyeon managed to answer, the classroom door opened to reveal Sohyun's wet face and front hair. The front of her shirt was also wet.

"Sorry, I am late. I was sleepy so I washed my face earlier." The teacher just nodded and told Sohyun to sit down.

"Hey"

"don't talk to me" I failed before I tried? What is this girl...

During the first time I came to this school, this was the first time I saw Sohyun not lying down. She focused on the lesson being explained. Honestly, I felt very confused. Is she that interested in art?

I try to focus on myself and the material given. Turns out art isn't that bad? There are music, dance, painting and others. Remembering the Art of Music, I think I know the reason why Sohyun is so interested in Art considering how she played the guitar before at the Warehouse.

I felt that I had found a topic to talk about with Sohyun. I moved my seat a little closer to her so I could talk to her in a low voice.

"You like art?" she didn't respond. She continued to draw in his notebook, occasionally writing down the material she explained. The writing looks beautiful, like the author. Maybe I like Sohyun? Oh no way. I'm just amazed at her figure.

Again I tried to talk to her because I thought that I would be able to be friends with her if I understood what she could do.

"I also like art. We have to discuss it together." She again did not respond. How can I be friends with her? Just talking to her didn't respond. Should I touch her? But I don't want to cross the Boundaries of someone who is a new student who hasn't even been around 24 hours.

Again I tried to talk to her which I could guess this time would be successful.

"Hey-" she dropped her pencil. Forcing it down, actually. Almost half the class turned to look at the two of us.

"You're bothering me. Just say anything you want; I will grant it. So don't bother me and try to be my friend. You disgust me" she stood up and left the classroom.

What does 'everything I want' mean? I just want to be friends with her. Is it wrong? Is it hard to make friends? I still can't understand what he said. I managed to get her to talk to me, but with those rubbish sentences. I can't believe someone like her can talk like that too...

The bell signalling the end of class time rang. We have 10 minutes to wait for the next lesson. I, who was still confused, was approached by Nien and Kotone.

"Are you hurt?" I shook my head

"You were hurt by her?" I nodded.

"Maybe my heart was hurt by her," I said, which managed to make Kotone hit my shoulder lightly.

"What did you do to make her so angry? This is the first time I've heard her like that" said Kotone.

"Yeah... even though I've been sitting in front of her for almost 6 months, this is the first time I've heard her say something as rude as that. Wow... it turns out Park Sohyun is this rude?" Soomin said so without looking at me.

"I... just want to chat with her" the others were confused but not Dahyun who was currently tidying up the book Sohyun's chose.

"It was your desire that aroused her trauma" the others looked at Dahyun with confused looks in disbelief.

"Sohyun Traumatized by a beautiful person like Xinyu? Is that the reason she's always been quiet since she started school? Because her classmates are all beautiful?" Yubin's ramblings don't make sense but they also have meaning.

"Not like that. I know some things about Sohyun that you might not know. Even Nakyung and Yooyeon don't know. I don't want to open my mouth, I'll just let Sohyun tell the story" explained Dahyun.

"But how do you know?" asked Nakyung, who had been listening to all of our conversation.

"Because I am a witness" of course the sentence thrown by Dahyun managed to shock the whole class.

"witness?" I was confused by the sentence given by Dahyun.

"What do you mean, Nakyung and Yooyeon don't know either?"

"There is some information from Sohyun's personal data that you don't know. There's something to do with Sohyun's personal data, but she didn't tell," explained Dahyun, who succeeded in making the whole class start to fuss and talking about her name.

Just as we were talking about it, the classroom door slammed and showed Sohyun coming to class.

Did Sohyun hear everything?

Is Sohyun involved in something?
