The Time I Don't Know About

"I hate you, Irene! You're always like this. You keep on giving me signs but you'll just reject me at the end. I'm done!"

Irene just stared at the back of her classmate? At a certain subject. She doesn't even know him. She is baffled that he just scolded her and said things that Irene doesn't understand or what he's talking about. She just scratched her head as she closed her locker.

"My, my. What do we have here?"

Irene was startled when a girl with short hair, about her height, was leaning on the locker area. She's smiling at Irene and she doesn't know how she should respond. Irene doesn't even know the girl.

"Excuse me."

Irene just said and bowed. She is about to walk when she stops her. "Hey, I'm still talking to you."

Her brows furrowed. "I'm sorry but I think we don't have anything to talk about."

She doesn't know if she should be offended by how this girl can casually sneer at her. "Oh, so you're like this. Maybe that's why he's angry at you earlier."

"Who?"

"Jaehyun. The guy you just rejected."

Irene stares at the ceiling thinking who the hell is Jaehyun. The girl giggles and she looks at her with so much confusion in her eyes. What is she laughing at?

"I guess you don't really care about others, right? You can't even remember the guy who's here earlier. By the way, I'm Wendy Son. Please don't forget me."

"I'm really confused. Who are you and why are you talking to me? I want to excuse myself. I still have class."

Irene starts walking and the girl is following her. It should be irritating but with her presence, it's a bit nice. That is unusual for Irene. She doesn't care though.

"See? You don't even remember me. We're in the same class. The same class where you're about to go."

Is she always in the History class? Since when?

"O-okay. But why are you talking to me?"

"I always notice you at the class. You're really quiet, huh? But I happened to witness that scene earlier in the locker room. Sorry about that."

She walks faster but the girl can catch her pace. "What's that with you anyway?"

"Aw! You're right though." She giggled and nudged her arm.

Why is she acting so close to me?

They are now in the classroom but Irene is more surprised because Wendy was seated beside her. Her eyes are fixated on Irene who's busy finding her notebook.

"Why are you here?"

"I'm in this class, too."

"Yeah. But why are you sitting beside me?"

"We don't have a class arrangement, right?"

Irene just nodded and sighs. She's bothering her now. She is thinking what would she gain from talking to her? Though Wendy is making an effort in talking to Irene the whole time, she ignores her and makes herself busy by listening to the professor and listing down notes. Wendy is really chatty.

"Where are you going after class?"

Irene gives Wendy a questioning look. "Why do you want to know?"

She just shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know but where is it anyway?"

She's not supposed to answer her but she didn't know why words came from her mouth. "I'm going to the library."

"Really? Can I come?"
