I didnt realize that Sungjae has been following me since our last class ended. He didn't even make a sound. That's the reason why I couldn't recognize him until my mom called his name when I finally arrived at home.

"My boy! How's your day?" Mom waved at someone happily, but it seems not for me. Of course, I'm not a boy.

I decided to look behind me and found a guy with a familiar shoes stand there. It was Sungjae's shoes.

"Hi," he said almost like a whisper. "Sorry I didn't tell you that I was here."

"No biggie." I said with a small smile. "Please say something if you were near me. I feel bad because I thought you were a stranger."

"Sorry again."

I just smiled.

"Want to have lunch?" Mom's voice made me look up to her again. I nodded and ran a little towards her. Sungjae walked behind me.

We have been best friends since kindergarten. I didn't have my disorder back then, so we lived normally just like anyone else. Than I got into an accident when I was 8 and I cant remember faces since then. I usually recognize people with their voice. I don't even know how my face look like now.

We ate salmon for lunch. That's Sungjae's favorite.

"Your behaviour might made people think that Sungjae was your only child." I complained during our lunch. Mom laughed. 

I said that a lot. So its not offended for anyone. But sometimes i mean it.

"I wish Sungjae were my son."

"I wish that too." I replied. Sungjae just enjoyed his lunch like he always do. He couldn't hear any sounds when he's eating. This one isn't a disorder. It's just him who don't want anything or anyone bother his session with food.

"I heard you got an A on your math test."

I nodded. I'm pretty proud with that.  I always got B+ back then. Thanks to the genius guy who always act to be stupid. Sungjae.

He's eating right now so I can't say anything to him.

"But Sungjae got A+. I think he even deserve an S. He's such an expert in any subjects. Teachers loves him."

"I thought Sungjae's always sleeping during class?"

"I slept, but I heard everything." He replied.

"He's a genius though." I mumbled while chewing my salmon.

Mom doesn't say anything. Then I realized that Sungjae just join our conversation. It's so rare!! 

I checked his food and its already clean. That's the reason why he joined us. Because he finished his lunch.

"So, what's your plan after this?" Mom asked. 

"Sleep." I answered. 

"I don't ask you." 

Oh, she means it for Sungjae. Maybe she really think that Sungjae is her son. I feel bad because i'm the one who was born with her blood.

I decided continue my lunch without let any further complain out from my mouth.

"Do you want to play?" Sungjae suddenly turned his chair to the left so he could face me. I glared at him. I dont like it when he does this thing. It's pretty annoying.

"Play what?"

"Lets go to the city."

"Ask for permission first." Mom suddenly joined our conversation although its actually she's the one who started it. "Did you forget that I'm still here?"

"I'm sorry, Ma'am. May I take your daughter to the city?"

Mom looked serious at first. Then she giggled after she said yes.

We went to the city after I finished my lunch. Sungjae's the one who has the money. I don't have any. I broke.

"Lets go to the arcade!" Sungjae said happily after we arrived at the city by bus. We still at the halte.

"I'll go wherever you want. It's your money though."

Sungjae nodded. "But I want ice cream first."

"Nice!" 

One of several things we both love. Ice cream! We even have same favorite flavour. Cream cookies.

Soon after, we ate ice cream in an ice cream store. Then we went to the arcade. We split there.

I was playing a motorbike race when someone joined me. 

"Hi." He said. But its not Sungjae's voice.

I looked through him. From hair to toe, there's nothing i'm familiar with.

"I'm sorry.... But who are you?"

His eyes got bigger. He looked a bit confuse.

"I might say hi to the wrong person. I thought you're Namjoo. Kim Namjoo."

I blinked. That's my name.

"I am Kim Namjoo." I said.

"Huh?  So why did you not recognize me?" He asked.

Oh no. I couldn't answer anything.
