The College Nerd » kth ( HIATUS TILL 3RD MARCH)

"Excuse me, but I think you dropped something: my jaw. Hi, Mr. Nerd."

Song Yn, the erstwhile paragon of academic excellence, had long reigned supreme in the rarefied world of higher education. Her name was synonymous with intellectual rigor, her erudition unparalleled. But then, Kim Taehyung emerged, an enigmatic and taciturn prodigy whose cerebral prowess threatened to usurp her dominance.

Initially, she disparaged him as a rival, dismissing his introverted nature and awkward demeanor as indicative of intellectual vacuity. However, as they engaged in a series of dialectical skirmishes, she discovered that his intellect was rivalled only by the profundity of his emotional scars. His eyes seemed to harbor a liminal space, a hermeneutic of pain and suffering that defied articulation.

As their academic rivalry intensified, Song Yn found herself inexorably drawn to him, despite her better judgment. She, who had always epitomized confidence and certitude, now felt like a shipwrecked sailor, lost in a sea of uncertainty. Kim Taehyung's presence had become an existential perturbation, a disruption that threatened to upend her very being.

Their rivalry soon became the stuff of legend, a spectacle that drew in awestruck onlookers from across the campus. Yet, beneath the surface, Song Yn detected a vulnerability in Kim Taehyung that she couldn't quite access. She attempted to breach his defenses, to pierce the armor of his indifference, but he remained impervious, his eyes flashing with an intensity that left her breathless.

As the semester unfolded, Song Yn discovered herself succumbing to an affective gravity, a force that drew her inexorably towards Kim Taehyung. But she was too proud to acknowledge her sentiments, too fearful to reveal her vulnerability. Thus, she perpetuated the charade, pretending that their rivalry was the sole locus of her interest. Yet, deep down, she knew that she was engaged in a far more profound struggle - one for the conquest of his heart.
