"Rahae!" One of my classmates called me. I looked over my shoulder and smiled.
"A transferee~" She chanted and wiggled her eyebrows. I giggled and looked at the white board. All of my classmates behave in their seat as our homeroom teacher enters.
"Good morning. Today, you will have a new classmate." She announced and looked at my seat.
"Bo Rahae, you will finally have a seatmate." My classmates laughed at her statement. Since our first semester, I don't have a seatmate. All of them are paired. Boys with girls. When we have a project by pair, the teacher would consider having one group with three members. That's kinda harsh for me because I sometimes feel leftout.
"Come in." She said and the sliding door slowly open. A boy with a really chic look entered the classroom with a cool vibe. He looked really confident.
"Introduce yourself." Our teacher stated. He bow and then suddenly, he looked at me. "Annyeong. My name is Yang Jeongin." He said. Our teacher gestured him to sit on the empty chair next to mine. As he walked on the aisle, all of my classmates looked at him. They look hilarious, as if they are praising that good- looking guy. I mean I don't look at him like that but I must say that his fair skin makes him look like a prince on a white horse.
I smiled and waved at him. "Annyeong! I'm Bo Rahae." He throw me a glance and looked at our teacher, probably acting like he didn't notice me.
Classes continued. Jeongin doesn't even have notes nor books but he didn't bother on asking me. He is just sitting and looking at the teacher. He is a very boring seatmate.
"Jeongin..." I whispered. He glanced at me and raised his eyebrows. Finally! An interaction. I need to be comfortable around him because sooner or later, we will be paired up.
"You can have my notes." I handed him my notebook. He looked at it first before looking at me. "No need." He said and slide the notebook back to my side. Why is he being like this? I never felt rejected in my whole life. Not until this guy came.
After classes, I was supposed to go to the academy but I saw Jeongin. I tried to follow him but he stopped on his track and looked behind him. He saw me.
"What do you need?" He asked, annoyed. He even dare to glare at me.
'Think Rahae, think!'
"Ah! I need someone to go with me at the bookstore." I lied. What am I even gonna do at a bookstore? I don't even study that much.
"Do I look like someone close to you?" He said. My eyes widen and looked deeply into his eyes. That's a big slap to me. I looked around and saw some students looking at us. They're whispering and I can't help but to be concious. This guy is getting on my nerves.
"Sorry." I said and turned my back on him. Why is he trying so hard to get? I just want to be friends with him. Maybe he thinks I like him because he is good looking. Tsk! I'm not like that. Never.
I thought he is going to follow me but no one called my name until I reached the bus stop. Luckily, I'm not a crybaby anymore. That was the worst thing I have ever heard from someone.

I went to school early. Really early that I thought I was the first one to arrived at school. But then he was there sitting and looking straight into my eyes. He doesn't even look guilty.
"Hi." He greeted. I replied with a fake smile and put my bag on the seat next to him. I sit beside him and sip my banana milk.
"You came so early." He commented. I can sense how eager he is to talk to me. But no, not now.
