8 Eyes for You

5- Developing Characters

It's close to exams and other things. Ugh...college is so hard. 

I haven't had time to see Hidemi really. We just see each other when we come home together since we still...have one key.

We're walking together. I still can't forget about that night. It's been 2 weeks since that happened. Nothing else had happened but...Hidemi just keeps smiling at me whenever I see him or...

...or...when I stare at him....

FUCK.

I can't handle it. AM I GAY?! 

THIS DOESN'T EVEN MAKE SENSE!!!

"What are you even doing??" Hidemi looks at me. "Why are you smashing your head on the desk? Are you going to break that, too?"

I turned around and glare at him. "Shut up." I turn back around and went back to writing. My cheeks are red again. 

I can hear him climb down the ladder. Footsteps coming closer to me. His...his chest is at my back. 

I never realized he was so big...

"You're studying?" He chuckles. "What a goody two-shoes~" He's speaking in english again...

I turned my head to the left to face him, "Wh-What does that-!!"

"Hmm? What is it?" 

H-His face is so close to me. ABORT ABORT!!!

I turn myself back into the same position. "N-Nothing..."

He's staring at me. He chuckles. "You're adorable..." His whisper left me stunned. I looked back. Hidemi heads for the door and leaves, leaving the door opened. "I'm gonna get a snack!" He shouts. 

Wh-What...just happened...?!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I went to visit Ken. It's been 5-6 weeks since I last saw him.

"Hey! Hyun Oh~!!!!!" Ken calls for me. "Come on! Let's go get drinks."

"Ken-san, you said we were going to hang out with friends." This is Eri, her square bang hairstyle and square glasses makes her look boring...

Ken chuckles. "Aww...but it has been so long since I hung out with Hyun Oh..." Ken tries to make a cute face. He's not cute at all....

Eri stares and looks at me. "Isn't he underage to drink? It isn't fun when some people can't drink..."

I nod in agreement. Fact is, Ken only uses me to go drinking as an excuse. 

Ken pouts and sigh, "Fineee...."

We walked. We were going to have dinner with friends. Well, Ken's and Eri's friends. 

Ken always talked about Eri, I never met her though. It...seems that he's dating her but at the same time, he's not. It seems that Eri doesn't really have feelings for Ken, but she cares deeply for him. 

As we're at the tables, every starts to eat and thanking for the food. 

"Hey, you're from Ichinomiya Univeristy, right?" The girl right next to me smiles. She looks like my age. "I know you, I seen you in class!" She claps her hands together with a smile.

I nod. I do not know her. Never seen her before. Probably because I don't care about the other students.

"So you're korean, right?" She smiles, "It's fine to call you by your first name, right?"

I nod again. I don't want to talk to her. I rather eat my free paid food. 

"Hehe, Hyun Oh-chan~"
