⤻ YANG JEONGIN.

Jeongin timidly sat in his seat, the seating arrangement was never a problem for him until this very moment. He tried his best to ignore Hwang Hyunjin's glaring, but it was all too much, it felt like his eyes would burn a hole into Jeongin.

Jeongin never liked attention, and this type of attention definitely did not change that mindset.

"Did you hear? Hyunjin's phone was stolen for like two hours." Jeongin hears Hyunjin's friend discuss with the latter's other friend. Jeongin slumps in his seat, even when he's spoken about, no would even know it's about him. "No wonder my texts weren't replied to until hours later." The red head replies- "Even when his phone is in his grasp he doesn't respond to our texts."

Jeongin still remembers the texts Hyunjin had gotten, two stuck out to him.

Transferred money into your account. Should last you a week.

That was from his mom. He seems like a spoiled brat, Jeongin has never gotten allowance. His parents think it would make their children lazy in the future, Jeongin doesn't think they're wrong. But, the notification after that text was the transferred money, the digits almost made Jeongin's eyes budge out.

Wanted to thank you for last night. We should do it again. All the stress from my ex disappeared just because of you. No strings attached, promise.

That was from a number that wasn't even saved. It wasn't surprising that Hyunjin played around like that, the whole school knew. But, somehow the way the message was constructed shocked Jeongin.

⤻ HWANG HYUNJIN.

Hyunjin ignores the female on his lap, eyes glued on his phone as he texted his friends. "Are you- Are you on your phone? Seriously?" Hyunjin looks at her dead in the eyes, lips slightly parted. "Do you think I was excited for you here? I'm not interested. Clearly." Hyunjin gets up, the girl scoots on her bed as he puts on his belt, leaving the room.

He doesn't understand it. Why are all the girls he's met always asking him about his interest in them and whether he wanted to be serious about it.

Hwang Hyunjin doesn't do 'serious' and 'interest.'

They should've known that by now.
