It All Started From a Kiss || TinCan FF

1 - Close Call

Shit, shit, shit!

That's the only word that runs in Can's mind as he himself run towards his class. It's a normal situation for him to be in, it's been like this ever since he started his university life. No matter what he does, he always ends up late by multiple reasons: Waking up late, being to engrossed in eating, taking long baths, and many more.

The trip from the dorm to the faculty is quite a distance away which doesn't help his situation. "Oii Can! Why do you have to live with this curse?" He wonders what he did in his previous life to make him suffer like this.

He runs through sidewalk with people, apologizing to them when he bumps into someone or should I say everyone. He was frantic because the professor is strict, and he doesn't want to be in his bad side. Once he witnessed a student went in late, and the professor did not welcome her kindly. He made her apologize to him, and the rest of the class with proper manners. She repeated the action many times because her bow wasn't a certain angle.

"I'm sorry! Excuse me! I'm very sorry! I'm running late!" These are the phrases that leave Can's mouth as he passes through a crowd of people going places. He could see his faculty building in the distance, granting him a little sense of relief.

As he runs to the building at his fastest speed, his mind thinks of scenarios of what would happen if he is late. A rush of fear, anxiety, and adrenaline fills his system making him more frantic as he dashes through the entrance of the building. A few students littered the front area, and Can bumps into almost everyone in the vicinity. How did he do that? He doesn't know either but that is not his main concern as of the moment.

He runs up the stairs, almost tripping at one point before going through the corridors. "I've been here many times but why does this feel like I'm in a maze!" He said to himself as he searches for his class. His mind is clouded by panic so he couldn't think straight, hesitating on turns, and intersections.

He turns a corner, and then see that he was at the wrong side of the building. He groans which turns into a whine. Stomping the ground out of frustration, he sighs, "Oiiii! Why must this happen to meee!" He quickly turns around, and dashes to the other side of the faculty. That's why he felt like he was in a maze.

As he was running, he prays to every god that he could think of that he would not be late. It feels like hours has gone by since he left the wrong side. He was sweating, and panting. he was tired from all the running but he still found the energy, and will to keep moving. He found it in the imagination of his professor punishing him.

He turns a corner, and see the door to his class. It looked surreal to him, sunlight was hitting it perfectly like the heavens pointing him to his destination, a calm breeze blowing from somewhere in the building, and he swore he heard a choir of angels sing. This scene was playing while his professor walks towards it in the background.

"Oh shit! Wait!" Can snaps out of his day dream, and quickly runs to the door, opening it with such force that it collided with the wall gaining all the student's attention. "Profs Coming!" He said making everyone in the room go back to their proper places, fixing themselves, and their things.

Can took a seat next to his friend Ae who was looking at him since he entered the class. Can sits down, and looks for something in his bag. He takes out a bento box filled with delicious food, and starts gorging himself with the food.

"Hey!" Ae calls out for Can. The said male looks at him with puffed out cheeks. "Wat?" He asks with his mouth full. He chews for a moment before swallowing. "Are you crazy or something? Why are you eating?" Ae questioned him, looking at him like his out of his mind.

"I'm hungry! I didn't get breakfast this morning." Can reasoned out. He didn't get to eat breakfast because he was running late. "And whose fault is that?" Ae raised an eye brow at him as he waits for his response. "The alarm clock?" Can gave a sheepish smile to Ae. Ae just shook his head, and went back to the lecture.

"You should pack that up before the professor catches you." With a last bite, Can packed up, and brought out his lectures. This boy is weird, seriously he is scared that he would be late, and get punished by the professor but eats in his class like it's no big deal.

The day only started but so much has already happened but the day has so much more in store.
