YooJung's POV

" Your so smart ! Can you teach me ? "

The sentence that I heard the most in the whole 17 years of my life. I wasn't born smart , neither was I ever smart but I just scored better than the rest.

I really love reading and I would read about three books in a week.

People categorised me as a geek but I don't think so because I am really different outside of school. I wasn't this shy girl that everyone sees on the surface.

When I'm out of school , I would be at Hongdae performing street dance since I have passion for dance and no one knows about it.

Not even my good friend.

I wore huge glasses that covers half of my face and I have bangs that covers half of my face too which means my true face isn't really shown.

Unlike those characters in fan fictions , i'm not from some rich family that have big companies and I acted as if i'm poor.

I'm from an average family , my parents own a restaurant in Hongdae and I have two other siblings.

My Older sister work as a Lawyer in a firm while my brother work as a business man in one of the company in Korea.

My family knows about my passion for dance but they didn't know that I want to pursue it as a career.

My dream is to be a choreographer , and to be able to express myself through dance and everyone likes it.

" YooJung-ah , can you teach me this Maths sum ? " I nodded as I read through it and explained it to her. She thanked me after she've understood.

People treat me as if I was never wrong , as if I would never do anything wrongly and I never ever commit a sin or a mistake.

Today's Chemistry class , our Science teacher , Mrs Kim made all of us change our partners again. This time it's all by fate.

She placed a metal box in front of the whole class and everyone's name were written on a small piece of paper and were all placed in that box.

I walked to the front and placed my hand into the box and took out a piece of paper.

Apparently according to the guys in my class , she's sexist. However , she doesn't seem to care not even a little bit.

All the girls were forced to stand in a row and read out their partner's name.

It was finally my turn after hearing girls opening heir paper and sigh in disappointment which is just plain rude towards their partner.

Everyone were waiting for my answer when the door knocked and everyone turned to look at the door.

" Sorry i'm late. " It turns out the school's playboy is late. Since his name is not included in the box , everyone have to return their papers and add in his name.

Girls smiled in happiness while guys pout in sadness.

I felt especially bad for the guy named Bae Jinyoung , he got the girl that he has a crush on but was forced to change his partner.

I opened my paper to check who is my partner and it turns out it's the school's worst partner , Lee Jeno. He literally doesn't cooperate with anything and is always bossing people around.

" Who's your previous partner ? " One of the guys asked , I didn't answer so the girl beside me grabbed the paper and opened it.

She read the name out loud and I saw Jeno ruffled his hair in frustration. Not trying to brag but I can't deny that i'm the best choice for a partner.

Not for sports though.

The routine starts again and it's finally my turn to open it. With anticipation , I opened the piece of paper and read it out.

Shook.

I rubbed my eyes to make sure I read out the right name.

" What are you waiting for , partner ? " That's when I know all the girl are going to hate me for having him as a partner.

I was dragged across the class by him and i'm totally not liking it. Let's just hope the whole term could past at a faster pace.

We sat in benches and let me tell you , the guy beside me or someone I supposedly should call Partner is literally not doing anything.

He was just using his phone , scrolling through social media while I'm mixing all the damn chemicals together.

We are supposed to write out the chemical name and what's the new found chemical called and he told me something absolutely absurd.

" Can't you see i'm busy hitting this girl up ? "

I glared at him , If I could I would pour this new found chemical on him and name it Jaeboy acid.

But no thanks , because i'm kind even though I don't tolerate such behaviour but I shall give him a chance.

" You have to do otherwise I'm going to tell Mrs Kim about it. " He slammed his phone on the table and smiled at me.

" Happy now ? " I rolled my eyes and Poured in some dark blue acid that is called Acid Blue 25.

I don't even know how chemist found chemical and give it a name , like why 25 ? Is it the chemist's favourite number ? because I would put mine as 21.

Anyways , The chemical reaction is that the colour changes from yellow to blue and then to green. There's also bubbles forming.

" I swear if I don't get that girl , your dead. " He said while I tried to observe the reaction. While doing so , he couldn't stop talking at all. He just continued murmuring on.

" She's so h- "

" Can you just shut up for a moment ? " He smiled and shook his head. I rolled my eyes and continued with the experiment.

" I don't even know why do you want to be so concentrated. " I smiled at him.

" Maybe because I care about my future more than someone that hits girls up everyday ? " He glared at me and I ignored him.

" I don't even know why do we have to study chemistry like it's so boring and it doesn't even make sense. I would rather take physics. " He said.

" Then why do you even choose to take chemistry in the first place ? "
