My alarm woke me up from my deep sleep. I hit the snooze button as usual. After hitting snooze for the 3rd time, I realized I better wake up and stop being sleepy.

After getting ready, I went downstairs and realized Mom is cooking breakfast already. By the fragrance, I knew It was Pancakes for the breakfast. The pancakes smelled delicious.

"Oh Bora, you are here. Good morning! Come, I made pancakes for breakfast today."

"Good morning Mom! Thanks for the pancakes! That's the best start I can ask for the day ahead" I said with a huge smile showing my love for the pancakes. I sat at the table, while my mom served me my breakfast.

While eating, I decided to text Namjoon asking if he will be on time. Though I was sure he would be late. Just in case, he could prove me wrong today.

I am almost ready, just finishing my breakfast. You better be here on time.

Suddenly, the doorbell rang. Seeing the clock on the wall, it was almost 7:40 am.

Namjoon can't be coming 20 minutes before the said time. He can never be so early unless...

My mom interrupted my thoughts. "Go open the door. Must be Namjoon. He will have breakfast with us."

Yup, unless he is having breakfast with us. I opened the door, and he came in shoving me to the side, let alone greeting me a good morning. He sniffled like a dog, "Ahhh I can already tell the pancakes will be delicious. Good morning, Mom"

"Good Morning Namjoon. Have a seat and Bora will serve you the breakfast." She said, looking at me so that I follow her orders. I was still at the door, witnessing all of this. I went back to the dining table, closing the door behind. 

"Mom, Am I seriously your child? Did by any chance, you exchanged me with Namjoon at the hospital? It feels like he is your son and I am not your daughter." I pouted while serving Namjoon.

"Why do I smell something burning? Mom, are pancakes burned or is it something else" Namjoon was looking at me with a smirk on his face I wanted to get rid of so badly. Before I could slap him hard, my Mom shouted from the kitchen, "If I hear you guys fighting, then no one will get any pancakes. So better eat your breakfast in silence and leave for your University." 

Mom had her own tactics of not letting us fight. And she succeeded all times.

We did as she told, ate our breakfast in silence and left for University.

Once we reached college, I had this blank expression on my face which made Namjoon laugh at me. "Can you stop getting anxious and enjoy the day at it is. There is nothing to be anxious about." He chuckled, pinching my cheeks.

I pulled my face away to avoid the torture but failed. "I am not being anxious. Just feeling weird to be studying in Korea again after almost 3 years."

"Heyy, I am sure there is nothing to worry about. Let's get done with the admission procedure left for your admission and then head straight to the class. The first class would be basic and boring anyway."

"Yeah, Okay"

We both went to the administration office. Since I had not even a single idea, Namjoon talked with the officers asking for the documents where I had to sign. I was waiting at the door, looking at him talking to Sir when suddenly someone bumped into me hard from the back, making me almost fall on my face. Thanks to Namjoon who held me in time.

"Are you okay?" Namjoon asked me. I ignored him to look back at who so ever made me fall. And once I did, I felt sick in the stomach. I was speechless at how it was HIM, yet again. The person who tops my Most Annoying Person list. Not to forget, currently, he is the only one on that list. No one has ever pissed me off more than him. And I am damn sure if any other person annoys me, this person standing in front of me would still be on the top. I don't know why God is trying to tangle me with the same person every single time. What fun is he having with this?

"I—I am really sorry, I just slipped over by the mat which made me fall into you. I am really sorry. Are you,... uh, Are you okay?" He asked, with his innocent and worried expressions.

"Uhm Yeah, I am okay. Just be careful while you are walking, can you?" I replied softly, with a blank expression. I was just not in the mood to fight with HIM early in the morning on the first day of my college.

Though I was surprised myself how I didn't answer him back or just threw some punches on his face. And it was evident with the expressions on his face that he was surprised too. I guess he expected some angry comebacks from me, if not punches.

Namjoon, who was witnessing this weird conversation between us was equally surprised, for other reasons. He could sense this was not our first meeting. And knowing me inside-out, he too expected me to lash back at the guy. He nudged me to walk towards the office where I had to sign the documents. I went to the table where Sir had the documents ready for me to sign on. I did the signatures, handing the documents and officially being a student at the university. My stomach was doing summersaults though I was confused for the reason behind them.

"We still have time till our class starts, how about we go cafeteria and grab a cup of coffee?" He suggested after seeing my anxious face. Coffee would help me, I guess.

"I don't see anything wrong with that." I chuckled nervously.

We started to walk towards the cafeteria, when suddenly Namjoon asked me, "Bora-ah, Why were you so polite with that guy? I mean the Bora I know would have thrown punches at his face."

I was expecting this question. We were already in the cafeteria. I placed the order for two cups of Cappuccino. "Well, that's a long story." I replied to his question. Hoping that he doesn't ask me any further questions. But, He was Namjoon.

"I have some time till next chapter. I am all ears. Shoot."

I sighed. He wouldn't let me go without knowing the whole thing. So I told him about my previous encounters with the un-named guy.

The first encounter; during my flight back to Korea, how I almost ripped his arms with my nails while he made my jeans soak in water. 

Second encounter; at the convenience store, fighting for the eggs.

"And the third encounter you witnessed with your own eyes." I sighed, again. "Honestly, I wasn't in the mood to fight back today. This morning and the first day at the University was too good to be ruined by him."

There was silence for quite long. Namjoon was thinking something. And by the smirk on his face, it didn't seem good at all.

"So what you're trying to say is he was on the same flight as you, coming back from America. Then you met him at the convenience store, the one near to your house. And then you met him today at the University." His smirk grew and so did my anxiety.

I kind of guessed what he was going to say but before he could, I put my hands on his mouth, stopping him for uttering something I would never ever want in my life. I don't even want to think about it. He laughed at my hands which tickled me but I kept my hands on him, shaking my head and yelling a NO as loud as I can. "Noooo, please don't you dare speak next. I don't want my life a living hell. Pleassseee" He licked my hands with his tongue and I instantly backed off, wiping my hands with his clothes, uttering an "EWWWW JOONaaahh!!" But he was quick with his words.

"What if next you meet him and he is in the same class as you?" And there he said it, quick and without stuttering. He laughed at my expressions. I wasn't in my mind to even guess what my face must be looking like. Was I shocked? Scared? Anxious? Combination of all these? Only Namjoon knew. And by the way he was laughing, I am guessing it to be, .... I can't even guess.

"I mean what are the odds?" He said almost falling off the chair while laughing.
