The first-period bell rang, and homeroom was finally over. The classroom instantly turned into a mess as everyone scrambled to get ready for PE. And just Arzen's luck—it had to be a joint class with 2-3. Of course, Hanjun's class. Because why would things ever be easy?

The room buzzed with noise as the guys changed into their PE uniforms, curtains pulled tight over the windows. The girls were already off changing somewhere else. Arzen shoved his books aside, not caring where they landed, like they were the root of all his problems. His feet dragged him to the back of the room, where his locker was, and he pulled out his PE clothes.

It all felt annoyingly familiar, like he had done this a million times. Each automatic move, every small action blurred the lines between his past and this new, unreal world he was stuck in.

Back at his seat, Arzen watched Carsel quietly head out with his PE clothes. He started to change, unbuttoning his shirt and neatly folding it, trying to distract himself. His eyes wandered, catching a glimpse of Raizel already halfway into his jersey. The guy looked like he belonged on the cover of a fitness magazine, not sitting in a high school classroom.

'Damn this nonsense novel. What kind of 17-year-old would have that kind of body?'

Despite his frustrations, Arzen actually had his own charm. He was a bit shorter than Hanjun, with a round face that made him look young and approachable. His fair skin went well with his fluffy, curly brown hair, and his blue eyes had a warmth that contrasted with how he felt inside. His well-shaped nose and full lips added to his natural, if understated, good looks.

Arzen pulled on his PE uniform, which hung off him like it was made for someone twice his size. The classroom was a mess of noise and movement as everyone rushed to the field. He slipped out, keeping his head down, trying not to attract any attention. His feet moved on autopilot, tracing a path that felt unnervingly familiar for someone who'd only been here a day.

Ahead of him, a group of guys and girls walked together, talking loud enough to drown out the rest of the noise. They seemed to soak up all the attention, their voices getting more and more animated as they chatted away.

One of the girls leaned in toward the center of the group, her eyes bright with excitement.

"Did you hear? Carsel got another confession yesterday."

Her voice carried with the thrill of sharing fresh gossip.

"Oh, I saw it!"

Another girl chimed in, tucking a stray hair behind her ear with a knowing smile.

"That girl from Class 2-1, right?"

"Why does he keep rejecting everyone?"

One of the boys asked, tossing his soccer ball up in the air and catching it, his face a mix of curiosity and confusion.
