Spring was coming.
March had almost come to an end. The blossoming of flowers indicated that spring was already on it's way and by the middle of April the green spaces would get bath in the delightful hue of the pink cherry blossom. But still it was one week until April.

It was Monday morning and Yuta woke up right at time for school. He got dressed and was in a good mood but it didn't last long as he looked outside the window and he couldn't help but curse understand his breath. The sky was grey and he predicted by the time he would leave, it was going to rain. He ate his breakfast as fast as he was in hurry to avoid the rain. He remembered never liking this rainy days so he needed to hurry unless he wanted to get drenched.

It's so uncomfortable to get wet. He thought to himself.

He hurried out of the house but not forgetting to bring his umbrella. Soon after he found out that his prediction was right. It started to drizzle as he opened his umbrella and dashed out in the rain.

By the time, the train arrived his destination, the rain had stopped. Yuta got out of the subway and released a breath of relief and started to walk lazily towards his school. Inspite of walking slowly, the empty streets indicated that he reached school before time. He willingly set off early to avoid the rain but the situation there, was quite different then.

Yuta walked down the empty corridor which lead to his classroom. He opened the door hoping to face a totally empty classroom but....no. There was someone. A boy.

Already. He thought to himself.

He was a little surprised to see someone as he didn't at all except anyone to arrive that early. Yuta become more surprised when he found out that the boy was sitting exactly on his seat. The first thought that came to his mind was,

So this is my deskmate..Huh!! Thought of coming to school after one decade. What a brat!!

The boy had his head down on the desk and as Yuta got closer he found out that the boy was fast asleep. But at that moment Yuta didn't care about anyone sleeping, he was angry, maybe because he didn't expect his deskmate to turn up or maybe he was sitting on his seat.

"Hey!" Yuta shouted.

The boy woke up with a jolt. With half closed eyes he looked at Yuta. The first thought that came to Yuta's mind was "HANDSOME".

"Move" Yuta said covering his blushing face."That's my place."

The boy looked confused.

Yuta continued, "While you were having fun in your home, I happen to come and occupy that seat. So do you mind moving?"

The boy nodded and moved to the adjacent seat. Yuta sat down and opened the window. The rain had stopped completely and beams of sunlight illuminated the gloomy day.

Slowly the classroom transformed into a noisy one. But, the boy didn't lift his head then also. Yuta looked and him and thought of waking him up since classes were going to start soon.

"Hey!! Hey!! Class is going to start soon. Wake up unless you want a scolding." Yuta said giving the boy a slide jerk.

The boy woke up. He  straightened his hair but didn't say anything.

"Don't you think you should say something like THANK YOU." Yuta emphasized.

"Thank you." The boy murmured looking downwards. Yuta took him to be a quite shy person and spoke up.

"Mention not." Yuta continued,  "you might not know but I'm your new desk mate and I just transferred here. Usually people would ask you to look after me but situation is a little bit different here and I totally understand, since you happen to start your school after one and half month approximately, so I have to be the one to look after you. And I'm super OK with it." Yuta took a deep breath and paused for a while expecting a reply but the boy didn't even look up.

"So you happen to be a little shy. But it's okay..." Yuta continued, "I'm Nakamoto Yuta, and you are??" Yuta paused expectedly. Though Yuta knew already but deep down he didn't know why but he wanted to hear his voice.

"Dong Sicheng." the boy spoke in very low voice.

"Okay. Continue please." Yuta said bending down a little so that he can have an eye contact while they speak.

Sicheng looked at Yuta with confusion in his face. He didn't know what to continue.  Yuta did some hand gestures which clearly meant that he was asking for a complete introduction.

"H-hello. I-I a-am D-Dong S-Sicheng. Y-you can call m-me W-w-wi-in-win. N-nicee t-to m-meet y-you." he stumbled several times.

"I can call you what?" Yuta asked being unable you understand properly.

"Winwin" for the first time spoke clearly but his voice was too inaudible which made Yuta lean further towards him.

"Huh!?" Yuta asked.

"Winwin"

"Okay..  So Winwin don't be scared of me, I can assure you that I don't bite. And you can ask for help.. Like for instance any notes.. But it seems that you are too shy to ask.. So here you go.." Yuta took out some of the textbooks from his backpack and placed them on Sicheng's desk. But surprisingly he looked uncomfortable with Yuta's action.

"L-listen..." Sicheng spoke, "you shouldn't be talking with me."

Yuta was taken aback for a moment. And to be specific he got pissed, but he spoke again.

"Why?" Yuta asked.

"If you want to survive here..Just ignoring me is what best for you."

"Now you listen, so generally I'm not at all friends and not this much talkative but there's a word called sympathy and it's the exact thing which I'm showing you right now.. so ple-"

"Do I look that much sympathetic that someone whome I just met have to show pity on me??" Winwin literally shouted. Few of the students turned back to see what was happening.

The outburst was sudden.

Without realising Winwin's vision became blurry, his cheeks turned red and in no time he found himself in tears.

"Sorry". Winwin quickly stood up and left the classroom.

Yuta was left speechless. He didn't mean to hurt him. Though his words were a little bit harsh but he never intended to make him cry....
