" May I sit here?" A voice silently whispers on top of me. Kris.
" Mhmm." Looking at the opposite direction so that he wouldn't see my face blushing. He sits beside me - our shoulders just a few centimeters apart. After a while, I can feel the car accelerate. The very thought of our shoulders touching together makes my heart beat louder and my stomach turn. I grab my backpack and huddled it over my face - concealing my red idiotic face. I took a glance at him and he's looking by the window. He's posture - straight and refined. His prominent collar bone shows off just beyond his shirt. His eyes, turns hazel as the light shines through. The very second his head turns, I shift my eyes away from him - to hide the fact that I've been looking at him for quite a while . I still remember this moment till' now. The car ride home with Kris. I purposely wanted to because I knew deep inside my heart that these things won't last forever...and I was right. It didn't.

"YA! Minah! you've been dazed ever since Physical Ed - couldn't take ten laps because of your fat ?" Myungsoo interrupts my thoughts - laughing like an .

I just looked at my food, filled with brocoli, brown rice and steamed fish with carrots and mushrooms - not even planning a counter attack on Myungsoo. I just sat there, lifeless and reminiscing the past.

" Oh come on Myungsoo, give Minah a break." Hyeri says as she pats my back - knowing what I've been thinking about Kris this whole time.
" Ahh.. Alright alright." Myungsoo obediently follows Hyeri and eats his burger - I think, since I didn't really notice anyother person's lunch or food because I'm too preoccupied by my thoughts. Things go through my mind. I don't want to remember yet at the same time I want to. Remembering the good memories are quite an endearing feeling yet it also means that it has already happened and will never happen again. And then:

" Sehun! Why don't you sit with us? you're not eating with anybody right?"
Myungsoo suddenly asks Sehun- who's eating alone in his table. My brain suddenly boots up like a computer that restarted and I just look at Myungsoo - thinking what the hell is going on through his mind. After a while, Myungsoo notices me looking at him.

" What's with that look for? I'm just inviting him because you're not taking initiative to talk to the person who helped you yesterday - buying your sweets." Myungsoo declares.
He's right... I can't believe I'm agreeing with him. I didn't want to look at Sehun for I fear that I may just embarass myself by turning red. I gobbled my food - nervous if Sehun is going to join us. I hear the sound of a table griding unto the ground near me. CRAP. HE'S COMING. Focusing on the left corner of my peripheral vision I can see Sehun placing his table a few inches apart from mine and sits down. I kept eating my food and dared not to look at my left - where Sehun is.

"Minah, eat your food slowly or you might choke" Hyeri laughs lightly.
"Yeah you eat like a pig... Well, you are one" Myungsoo teasingly says.
I stare at Myungsoo with piercing eyes and He stares back at me with his abnoxious face. Myungsoo just called me a pig infront of Sehun. That . Then, he shifts his focus towards my left - Sehun.

"Anyhow, since Minah is focused on eating her lunch and cannot talk, I'll be the one to start it" Myungsoo says.
" I'm Kim Myungsoo and that's Hyeri and that ungrateful person over there who you met yesteryday is Minah." Myungsoo introduces us to Sehun. I look at Sehun - but I can't make out what he's thinking because of his chocolate brown hair blocking his eyes.
" Hello, I'm Hyeri." Hyeri smiles as she greets Sehun.
" Ah' I'm Oh Sehun. Nice to meet you all." Sehun softly introduces himself.
Oh Sh*t, Oh sh*t. These words go through my head all over and over again. Sehun is eating lunch beside me. It's not like he's the hottest person alive but I feel like crap beside him. Why does the atmosphere around me turns totally awkward when he's here? I don't know what to say. Should I initiate a conversation? Should I? I hate this feeling. Oh god. Fine. Here it goes:

" I would like to say thank you again for buying the Friand. It tasted really good." I stutter in the middle of my sentence. I said Thank you again. I already said that yesterday. I'm just repeating myself. This is so awkward but I can't think of anything. This is fu*king embarassing.
" Oh! by the way Sehun, I've been told before that you were in the Soccer team... when you were a 1st year?" Myungsoo asks. THANK GOD MYUNGSOO INTERRUPTED. Wait. What? He was? So he must've practiced with Kris. I start to think about Kris again yet the presence of Sehun tramples on my thoughts.
" Oh yeah, I think I remember that he was part of the soccer team." Hyeri says as she takes a bite of her tuna sandwich.
" Wait. So I'm the only one who doesn't know him for like... 3 years? I say unconciously. Oh god. Why would I tell that infront of the person? It's like saying I never knew you existed. Let me die now.
"Ahh.. Yeah I was part of the soccer team before. But after that, I wasn't active anymore so I guess it would be normal for somebody not to know me." Sehun says calmly - like he wasn't insulted. He agreed me with rather. My eyes widen ; surprised yet I felt relief.
" Nah, it's just Minah being stupid - I mean it's our last year in Keisung High and you don't know everyone yet." Myungsoo butts in.
" Hey, don't expect me to know everyone." I look at Myungsoo - furrowing my brows.

Our conversations consisted of the upcoming concerts this year, new music videos, idols, and our constant war against North Korea which was an unsual topic to discuss about ; mostly contained questions such as "If we were held captive by the North Koreans who would you save first?" and other random questions that pop up in our heads. Sehun was able to keep up with our random fast-paced conversations. He would answer If he was asked a question or give side remarks on a certain topic he knows about - though his replies were quite short. Still, that's something. Everytime he says something, my heart stops, everything stops. It's like the world shuts off for a second so that I could hear every word Sehun says. Though I never look at him directly longer than a second, I'm still fully attentive to his every move and every word. After minutes of talking about nonsense and celebrities, lunch ended. It was good that it ended so that I wouldn't have to be alert in what I do inorder for me not to embarass myself infront of Sehun yet It's sad because I won't be able to talk like that to Sehun again during lunch. Weird. Why am I so concious about Sehun?. Class starts once again and I kept thinking about Kris and me. Other than that, I also kept thinking about how I'm going to act later while we're all walking to the bakery. I had to think about topics so I wouldn't have anymore awkward moments with Sehun since he's coming with us. I also promised myself that I should just act normal when Sehun's around. After a really long while, I started listening to the teacher since I knew I was way behind the lesson but then I kept glancing at Sehun - using my notebook as my excuse. I pretend that I'm looking at my notes but I'm actually looking at Sehun. If I fail my exam at the end of the quarter, Blame Sehun. Oh right, He was in the soccer team before. He must've talked with Kris before since Kris was part of the soccer team. I've also heard that Kris is the team captain of the soccer team this year. He's the best. I fell in love with Kris because of his passion for his dreams, for being ambitious and hardworking. He practices soccer non-stop and loves it when he sees a soccer ball. I could see Kris being able to reach his dreams as a world-renowned soccer player in the future. That is why I love and admire him so much. Wait... 1st year. Wait, I go to Kris' soccer practices and games when I was a first year - I must've saw Sehun somehow. I even made friends with his teammates. I look at Sehun, analyzing him in every angle- trying to remember If I knew him before. I look at his face but his hair is scattered all over his eyes -  as usual. I couldn't make out his entire face. Again, questions that hasn't been answered run through my head. Why is he slouching everytime, looking down as he walks? Why did he help me yesterday? And a new one, Have I met him before? These questions keep me wondering. These things I don't know kept me occupied for the last couple of classes.

I don't know why but I'm so interested to know - to know these simple things. Though, I never knew that these simple things are bigger than I thought it would be. These things I do not know - The unknown.
