"May nakaupo ba dito?"
If Wonwoo will desrcibe the man he saw a while ago, it would be charismatic.
Don't get the wrong idea, hindi niya crush ang maitim na lalaki. Sa katunayan ay naiirita pa siya dito. Paano ba naman kasi, siya ata ang may pinakamalakas ang tawa kanina— nung pumiyok siya.
The taller man taps the table which irritates Wonwoo.
"Sabi ko, may nakaupo ba dito?"
The older boy shrugged, "Depende."
"Anong depende?"
"Depende kung may nakikita kang hindi ko nakikita."
"Sungit", the other boy muttered.
Sa ilang oras na nakatabi ni Wonwoo ang lalaki ay may mga mangilan ngilan siyang bagay na nalaman patungkol dito. First, he got this raspy voice. Second, he laughs a lot. Third, he's quite smart. And last, his name is Kim Mingyu.
"Penge naman ako ng papel."
And oh, he forgot to mention that this man annoys him — so much.

Wonwoo doesn't have friends aside from Seungkwan. Given the circumstances that it's the first day of school and the not so good happening a while ago, he doesn't have a choice but to spend his lunch break alone.
So that's what he did. Bitbit and string bag at librong hiniram niya sa library kaninang dismissal ay tinungo niya ang school canteen. Marami rami na ring tao at kung hindi niya bibilisan ay baka maubusan siya ng pagkain.
Mahirap na. Malas pa naman siya.
He's on his way to the school cafeteria when the tripped, his face landing straight to the floor. Ang libro ay tumilapon ilang metro ang layo sa kaniya.
And God, he got no wish right now but hoping that no one saw his clumsiness.
"Book mo ba 'to?"
Kung minamalas ka nga naman!
It's Kim Mingyu standing in front of him. His left hand was hid on his jean's pocket while the other one holds his book.
At si Wonwoo, ito. Nakadapa at sapo ang ilong na mukhang nabasag ata sa tindi ng pagkakadapa niya.
Mingyu removed his hand from his pocket and placed them on Wonwoo's head, tapping the head of the smaller boy as if he's a lost puppy.
"Wala pa kasing summer, ba't nagdadive ka na?"
Wonwoo rolled his eyes and got up. Pahablot din nitong kinuha ang libro mula sa kamay ni Mingyu na ngayon ay nakasuot ng nakakalokong ngiti.
Bwisit talaga.
Unang kita pa lamang ni Wonwoo, alam niyang nakakainis na ang lalaki na ito. From the moment he saw him enjoying the attention of the girls he's receiving a while ago, copying his answer to the surprise quiz given by their statistic professor, up to that annoying smile Mingyu always wears.
Parang asa kaniya na lahat ng swerte na dapat ay nararanasan ni Wonwoo ngayon.
Paalis na si Wonwoo nang marinig niya ang mahinang boses ni Mingyu sa di kalayuan.
"Nice hair though, ang bango."
And indeed, Mingyu's words are enough to piss Wonwoo even more.
