*toink*

“Ouch!” I scratched my head. What the? That’s the third paper ball she tossed at my head! I turned around to look at her…

Eun Ji was making weird gestures with her hand. Her expression is indescribably annoying. I couldn’t understand her…

Oh wait, I forgot to mention. Eun Ji is seated at the far back of the class. And by far, I meant way far…

Daehyun took her seat remember? I just don’t know what to feel right now. Maybe I should feel bad because Eun Ji and I are separated but on the other hand, I get to seat next to Jung Daehyun!

I just turned my gaze around since I couldn’t understand Eun Ji. When I turned around, my eyes caught something…

L.

His expression is scary. It isn’t his daily aura and expression. Normally he wouldn’t smile but today… his eyes are piercing. Piercing with… anger?

I looked at him for a few more moments…

His eyes are set at only one direction, in front of him. I looked at his hands… he’s crumpling his notebook with his hands…

“Hey…”

I snapped back to reality when someone called. I quickly glanced back to see who it was…

“Da… Dae… Daehyun…” his face is so near. So near our noses are touching each other.

I can’t move. I think I’m frozen or something… HELP!

My eyes are pinned at him. I looked at his eyes but… I couldn’t understand. He’s smiling… but it feels different. It feels weird being this close to him…

Something’s weird about his smile. No. something’s wrong with his smile…

I could feel my whole face burning up… I haven’t been this close to someone like this before.

I tried moving but I’m still frozen. So I just… closed my eyes.

I waited…

And waited…

And waited…

I hear him giggle.

*slam!*

I opened my eyes so fast. Daehyun isn’t close to me anymore. I looked around, people are crowded again…

Some eyes were on me, but then some were looking at something at the back…

I looked back and saw what they were looking at besides me.

It’s L.

His face is red… but not the way how my face was. It’s red, red with anger.

He’s standing and breathing heavily…

He’s… looking at us.

“AISH!” he ruffled his hair and stormed out of the room. What’s wrong with him this time?

I suddenly turned my gaze to Daehyun. He’s… smirking.

Whispers are around again just like yesterday…

“What happened?”

“Maybe he saw them…”

“So what if he saw them?”

“Maybe he was affected…”

“Why would he be affected?”

Affect who? Affected by what? Saw who?

Right when he left, all eyes were on me again…
