I woke up, with the same morning routine. My hellish teacher wakes us up in our dorms preparing us for another day of hell. It's bad enough I already live in the school but let alone seeing my teacher first thing in the morning is worst.. I put on my uniform and walked out my dorm leaving my other 3 roommates to finish with their makeup. I didn't care what I looked like, nor how I acted like.
Everyone just thought I was the robot who was perfect at everything. Perfect grades, talent, Smart, Talented but never spoke. Some people even thought I had a disability, that I was mute. I'm not mute, nor I am not a robot for sure. I had no friends, but I do have a loving single mother who always looks after me. But sometimes I wonder why she has to struggle to pay for my expensive ass tuition to this school that I don't even want to attend. Its no choice, its my best bet to make it to Harvard university after I graduate here.
I walked into class as usual, my notebooks have been slammed on the floor. "Hey, Robot! Lend me your notes for exams will ya?"
I ignored their statement and continued walking to my desk.
"Class has begun!!" My teacher walked into class bringing in a new student with small eyes, long black hair, and short legs.
"Introduce yourself." Whatever, new students come every year or so. I hate meeting new people. I laid my head on my desk and closed my eyes. "Annyeong." I heard a soft voice. The smallest sentence rang through my eardrums. I didn't speak nor move a muscle. Why should I say Hi? Is it obligatory to reply when someone speaks to you? "I'm Baekhyun. Byun Baekhyun." This kid seemed friendly, he clearly doesn't know my background information yet.
I lifted my head and turned to him. Is he talking to me?
I looked around the class and noticed everyone staring and whispering. "Look, the new kid sat with the robot." "He's so handsome! Why would he sit with her!" "Maybe he could make the robot talk!" "Look, shes totally into him!" I Ignored at what everyone was saying. I was used to all the attention already. I looked down at my notes and focused on studying for midterms. "Annyeong! Baek Byul!" I dropped my pencil and turned to him. "Your name was on your backpack." This kid is so annoying, when will he ever stop talking. I picked up my pencil and notebooks and went out the door.
"Baek Byul." I turned around and faced my homeroom teacher.
"Ne Seongsangnim? (Yes Teacher?)" "I want you to help tutor the new kid for midterms. What's his name again? Oh! Baekhyun. Please take care of him." No way! Please anything but that.. "But, we have many other students that can help him why-"
Just as I finished talking fast footsteps approach us. Oh gosh, it's that kid again.. "Oh! It's you again! Annyeong Baek Byul!" "Baekhyun-ssi, she will be your guide from now on. Byul will help you out until you settle in around here. She will also be helping you with Midterms! Shes the brightest student here in Severit High, she ranked 1st on her grade charts. Byul, please take care of him. I'll be going now!" "Ne Seongsangnim." I bowed and walked on my own. "Aren't you gonna show me around? or Tutor me now? I really need help!" This kid is seriously.. "I'll make you talk! I will surely make you talk to me!" He forcefully grabbed my arm and dragged me outside. I was too lazy to speak, so I just let him drag me along. He took me outside near the soccer/football field and made me sat down near him. "Lets hangout here from now on!" We're not allowed to be outside at these hours.. I grabbed my backpack and stood up from the stands. I don't want my first punishment point to be because of this stupid thing. Before I could leave, I heard a beautiful voice..
He started singing gracefully. You have a beautiful voice. "Oh! I heard you speak!!" Omo! Did I just say that out loud?! "Hey kids! Your not allowed to be in here during these hours!" I turned around and faced the coach. Damn it, busted.. "10 Punishment points to the both of you. Byul, aren't these your first points?"
I nodded my head.. All thanks to this kid. "What a waste.. and you! Your first day and you already have punishment points?" I looked at him and saw him smiling. Seriously? Is this the time to be smiling right now? "Clean the storage room. I want all the sport equipment organized. I want you guys to be back to your dorms before inspection." I bowed my head and looked at Baekhyun who's smile had not yet disappeared. "Happy? You got me my first punishment points.."
"I'm Honoured." I hope my chances won't get affected by 10 points. I mean it's only 10 punishment points.
A few hours past, and I made my way to the equipment room. First time meeting a classmate who's so determined to be friends with me.. "Byul! Your here!" He swiftly waved his hand at me as soon as I entered the room. "Ye-Yeah."
I started grabbing all the basketballs and started putting them in the basket. "Your so shy, but yet I can tell you have a lot of things in you that you just don't want other people seeing.."
This kid doesn't know what he's talking about. "Your probably like, Hah he doesn't know what he's talking about." Thats right kid, at least you know. "But, from the moment I walked through the classroom doors and saw you. I immediately knew I wanted to be your best friend." best friend? I wonder what it's like having a friend.. I don't make many because they're just so hard to keep. "Best Friend?" Baekhyun walked up to me and faced me.
"Yeah. Best Friend." He offered his hand but then I immediately looked at the clock. "We have an Hour to fix all this! We need to be back before Inspection at our dorms or else we'd get 100 Punishment points!" I quickly organized the equipment in a panicking state. "What's so important about punishment points?" I couldn't get distracted not now! I looked at the clock again and noticed we have 2 minutes until inspection. "Aish, don't you know any of the rules here?" "Right! Lets go to my dorm first since its closer!" He quickly grabbed my hand and pulled me towards the guys' dorm. "Uh.. Why am I coming with you?!"
Wow this kid runs fast. "Because! You can't sneak in there now! You'd get in even more trouble."
This kids got a point. "But where are you gonna hide me? How are we getting up there?!" We looked up and saw ropes being dropped down. Huh? "Climb!" Hul!! This kid is crazy! What does he think this is? Mountain climbing? I'd rather just get caught! "Hurry!" I grabbed the roped and started climbing.. Don't look down.. Don't look down.. Don't look down.. Before I knew we made it on their terrace. "Thanks Chanyeol." He then again grabbed my hand and pulled me to his bunk bed. "Uh.. what are you doing?!" Baekhyun Pushed me under the covers then he soon laid down. "Trust me!" How can I trust you when I barely know you? "I-I can barley breathe under here." Just then he wrapped his arm around me and pulled me closer to him. This kid seriously wants to die huh? "Seongsangnim, I think Baekhyun is sick." What the-? "Sick?"
"Seongsangnim, I don't feel to well." Damn well he's not a good actor..
The footsteps from the teacher grew louder and louder. "Well, you feel normal.. Maybe its because your hot. Take these sheets off-"
"No! I'm actually cold!! Super cold." He squeezed my hand signalling he was scared. His grip is so tight! He's cutting the circulation off my hand! "Well.. Okay, take some medicine. Chanyeol, Kyungsoo & Chen I expect you to take great care of your new roommate." The footsteps became smaller then soon I heard the door shut. Oh god Finally!! I released his hand from mine and got up. "AISH!"
I lightly hit him on the shoulder.
"Ack! What? I saved your life! You should be thanking me!" I looked at my hand which turned to the colour of red. "Look what you did to my hand!" Just then I felt his hand cover my mouth. "Shut up! They'll hear a girl in here." I removed his hand from my mouth. It tasted like Strawberries.. "You like Strawberries?" Did I just say that out loud again?! He soon then started laughing.. His laugh was contagious.. Before I knew I slowly started smiling..
