ʕ20ʔ Sudden Thoughts

Start from the beginning
                                        

"Let me help you with that." He said and moved his chair closer to her.

Excuse me? I am here- Not in front of me.

"But it's okay really." Ryujin said.

"No, I insist. You can't fail or you'll get in trouble with your mom." He said it teasingly and messed her hair.

Duh. Is he flirting with her? In a library? Do it somewhere else man.

"Fine but just 5 minutes okay?" Ryujin said as he nodded and proceeded to teach her the lesson.

Ryujin knows that lesson. She even got to answer her homework. Why is she letting him teach her the lessons she already knows? Does she like him? No way.

Even I can think of a better way to hang out with my crush or something. Not studying, what the hell.

...

Ryujin

"When should we start giving the letters?" I asked Beomgyu who's just watching soccer at the field.

"It's up to you. You're gonna be the one who's gonna deliver it." He said, eyes still glued on the players.

"Then, how about later?" I asked him as he just hummed.

I turned to look at him with my eyebrows furrowed.

"What?"

I guess he noticed it.

"Nothing. Why are you quiet?"

"I am not. What do you mean?" He replied.

"I'm not used to it." I shrugged and diverted my eyes to the field.

Suddenly, my phone rang. I fished my phone out of my bag and looked at the caller id.

"Who is it?" Beomgyu asked as I just gestured him a wait.

"Hello? Soobin why?" I answered.

"Where are you?"

"Field, why?"

"Meet me at the gate. I need to talk to you about something."

I blinked for a few seconds and nodded. "Okay? Sure. Give me five."

"Got it. Walk safely, don't trip." I heard him laugh.

"Very funny. Bye." I ended the call and put my phone back inside of my bag.

"Let's go. Soobin is at the gate. He's waiting for us." I gestured for Beomgyu to hop inside my bag.

"You mean, you." He rolled his eyes and went inside my bag.

He's so sulky since yesterday. Is he on his period or something?

I shrugged and put on my backpack.

I wonder what Soobin wants to talk about.

Beomgyu

"Let's talk while I walk you home." I heard the voice from outside.

Of course. This is that Soobin guy from the library earlier.

He wouldn't leave Ryujin alone since this morning. Ryujin doesn't feel uncomfortable from it so I have nothing to say. I'm just annoyed. I don't even know why.

"Sure." She spoke. "So now talk." She added.

"Okay, let's get this straight. What's happening Soobin?" Ryujin stopped walking.

"I'm just- Our friends keep on saying you are acting differently nowadays. I don't want to believe them but I still assured it." He spoke.

"I don't know what they are talking about. But I'm fine Soobin, really."

She is fine, Soobin. She said it herself.

"I'm just worried."

Worried? Why are you worried? Ryujin doesn't need the worrying.

"I appreciate it Soobin. But I'm really okay." She replied.

"There is nothing wrong with me. Tell them to not overanalyze things." They started walking again.

"Sure."

"Did you notice something different about me? We've known each other since we were little. Have you notice anything?" Ryujin said.

"Nothing. Except you not getting that one math lesson." Soobin laughed as Ryujin laughed too.

"By the way, thank you for your help for that."

"No problem. I hate math but I'm good at it so why not?"

They both laughed again and start talking about things.

I feel like she's really all smiley and happy while talking with him. She isn't alone this time when walking home. Well, I am always here but still. I enjoy her company but does she enjoys mine? Ryujin really seems to enjoy his...
