Perfect Love (TayNew)

25. Exam Preparation

Next day morning...

*New POV*

It was just yesterday that the sports fest completed and right now the atmosphere in the university looks totally different. It was like the sports fest never happened and there was some tension in the air. 

There was still some time for the classes to start so I went to the park and I found that not only there was tension in the air but also the things which were present everyday were also changed. All the benches in the park were replaced with tables and chairs including ours but with a different quality. It was a big table consisting of about eight comfortable cushion chairs.

"Morning, Gun." I said to Gun when I saw him at the table in the park.

"Morning, New." Gun said.

"Ohh... You look tired. Didn't you sleep yesterday?" Gun asked.

"No... I did..." I said and Gun was staring at me.

"Uhhh... Anyway, just what's going on here?" I asked confused sitting at the table.

"What? You mean... the table?" Gun said.

"Yeah... And why is the atmosphere so tense around here?" I asked.

"Ohh... You are asking about why most of the students are so early... and why the atmosphere's a bit different from every day, right?" Gun said.

"Yeah, that's it." 

"Huh? You mean... you seriously don't know?" Gun said shocked.

"Didn't Pluem say anything to you? Where's Pluem anyway? You didn't come with him." Gun continued.

"No... He didn't say anything about this and we only come together to the university sometimes. I already told you that he comes to the university from his brother's cafe sometimes since he has to help his brother run the cafe." I said.

"Then he didn't come back yesterday..." Gun said.

"He came back late yesterday so I didn't wake him up today in the morning. He must be up by now."  

"Hmmm... First midterm exams are starting two weeks from now." Gun said.

"Ohh... so that's why everyone's tensed and even the tables and chairs are arranged for studying." I said.

"You aren't even fazed by all of this are you, Mister typical scholarship student." Gun said teasing me.

"It's not like that at all. In fact, I am feeling the most pressure here... considering I have to be in the top five in the university." I said sighing.

"Top five? I know you will be in the top three or even top one." Gun said smiling.

"You're exaggerating." I said.

"But I think being the top isn't more pressurizing for you than the pressure you already have." Gun said.

"What's that?" I asked confused.

"Tay... He needs to get a score this time. Good luck trying to get him a score." Gun said.

"Let's go to class." Gun said and we went to attend the class.

I think what Gun said is true. I have to get Tay to score but not because the homeroom teacher told me to... I just want to help him study and get the score... Although getting a score depends on him I have to help him study...

Next day evening...

*Tay POV*

I and New were studying at the table in the park after classes ended.
