"Good morning sorry I'm late." I said while rushing inside the room to find Bry but I can't find her. I just sat on the empty seat at the back.

"Why are you late?" The guy beside me asked me.

"Oh... I forgot to turn on my alarm." I said. When I looked at him... oh it's Blaze!

"Uh... we're classmates?" I asked him while getting my notebooks out of my bag.

"Yeah, I was transferred here since I managed to aim high grades." He said, not looking at me because the teacher was discussing something.

"That's good. Have you seen Bry?" I asked him. I'm sure he knows Bry. She has a lot of friends here.

"The teacher announced that she's sick based on her excuse letter." He shrugged. Oh I remember! She told me that she's not feeling well last night.

After our class, I don't know where I'll go. Bry isn't with me today. "Wanna grab some snacks?" He asked me while I'm fixing my things in my bag.

"Aren't you coming with your friends?" I asked him. I don't want to go with his friends, I might feel out of place.

"Nope. They can take care of themselves." He told me. He raised a brow questioning me if I'll go with him. I just nodded and put my bag on before standing up.

"How's your forehead?" I asked him, there's still a little bump.

"It's okay now. Don't worry about it." He said.

"Where are we going?" I asked him.

"Where'd you wanna go?" I stayed silent for a while thinking where should we eat.

It's already afternoon, so we don't need to eat a meal. "Ice cream shop?" I shrugged and chuckled.

"Okay, ice cream shop." He agreed.

The ice cream store is outside of our campus. It's a bit far though. "So you're best friends with Bry?" He asked me.

"Isn't it obvious?" I chuckled.

"Ohh.... so... what about Richein?" He asked me.

"What about her?" I asked him back just to be clear.

"Are you best friends with—" He was about to ask me if I'm friends with Richein.

"No way!" I cut him off.

"Chill! Just asking." He laughed at me because of my face.

"She bullies me and Bry ever since 1st year high school." I rolled my eyes remembering that girl.

"Oh... I see. That's why you hate her that much?" He asked me.

"Yeah. She's the reason why the ball hit your forehead. It's our break time but she suddenly served the ball to me and I panicked so it went the wrong way." I said.

"What flavor do you want?" He asked me when we went inside the ice cream shop.

"Cookies and cream." I told him. While he's ordering, I'm finding a seat for us. I just picked the two mini couch beside the glass wall.

It's raining outside. I didn't bring umbrella with me. I didn't expect that it was gonna rain. Gosh, guess I'll stay here for a while till the rain stops.

"Here." He placed the cup of ice cream in front of me before taking a seat.

"How much is this?" I asked him. I want to pay him for this.
