{Third person view}
2.34p.m. ; After school
Walking into the empty-less abandoned Music Room , Syafiq released a heavy sigh as he lay his studying materials onto the harshly vandalised , dusty table.
"Here...Again," Syafiq whispered softly to himself.Although the state of the area he was in was terrible to study in , Syafiq had to wipe off the small stuff . It was the only place he could concentrate and study in out of the whole school anyway.
He whipped out his Mathematics text book from his bag and flipped to the 89th page . Algebra was the topic Syafiq had trouble with . Despite being good in his other subjects , Mathematics had always been the subject to pull his overalls down .
Staring straight into the question , Syafiq tried figuring out the solution to the sum .
"So.. If X is which is 9 units , and Y is 19 units , does that mean Y is twice as much as X ? But there'll be a remainder..." Syafiq murmured as he scrambled his brain to search for clues in the question. After several minutes of looking intensely into the question , Syafiq placed his head on the rough table and ruffled his fluffy hair acutely is desperation.
"WHY THE HELL DO I NEED TO EVEN KNOW THIS?! HOW WILL THIS HELP ME IN MY MISERABLE LIFE!?" Syafiq freely shouted at his will , knowing that the Music Room was almost soundproof . Calming himself down , Syafiq gently placed his pencil on the text book. Laying his back onto the back of the chair , Syafiq sighed heavily.Without realising , Syafiq gently opened his lips .
"All my friends are heathens take it slow ... Wait for them to ask you who you know..." The words escaped through his mouth . Before Syafiq could continue singing , a low yet mysterious voice had continued the song .
"Please don't make any sudden moves ... You don't know , the half of the abuse..." The voice sung . Jumping from his sit , Syafiq turned his head to face the direction where the voice had came from. A raven haired boy had appeared , leaning his shoulder next to the surface of the entering door .
"Greetings...," Were the words that greeted Syafiq with surprise .
"He must be really formal, huh?" Syafiq thought as he stared into the jaded eyes that stared back at him dully.
As soon as Syafiq was able to summon enough courage to talk to him than Syafiq asked questioningly,"Why are you here ? No, who are you?"
Smirking mischievously, the raven haired boy replied ," I heard shouting from the library in here , so I came to take a look but it was just you singing your sorrows away ."
Blushing intensely , Syafiq looked down and bit his lip so hard it could bleed ."Shit! What if he spreads rumours about me singing like a "maiden in despair"?!" Syafiq thought immediately . "Y-you better not tell anyone ! " Syafiq blurted out , stumbling over words here and there .
"I wasn't planning to. In fact , I'd like to help you in your Maths , unless , of course you didn't want any help," The raven haired boy offered .
" I don't even know your name!" Syafiq complained . " How can someone who don't know me teach me ?!"
" Just teach you? Anyway , my name's Jehan "Lucas" Choi , but you can just call me Jehan ," Jehan introduced, giving a slight bow . "And you are ?"Jehan asked after uprighting his position.
"Syafiq. Syafiq Sho." Syafiq introduced casually . "Nice to meet you , Syafiq . Let's get along well ," Jehan reached for Syafiq's hand and gave him a light and friendly handshake ."So , what was the question you had trouble with ? " Jehan asked smiling , unlike how Syafiq had first seen him . It was more like a smirk than smile .
Syafiq had no idea what had happened . His heart was racing and pumping so much that Jehan would've been able to be hear it while he was teaching him the solution.
"T-this must be a new feeling ... S-since I met a new person?" Syafiq thought as a reason why he felt that way . He was the type of person to not care about his feeling but other things like studies , health etc .Because of that feeling , Syafiq felt that he'd be good friends with Jehan for a very long time .
Dear reader ,
I hope you liked the first chapter and that you will continue to read all the other chapters~ Though , here are somethings to take note :
•Syafiq is pronounced as Sha-fi-k
•Syafiq usually stays at school because his parents don't give him much attention at home and are rarely present and does not have a proper studying area to study in his home.
•Syafiq has his own allowance and usually stays at home if he does not have homework / projects etc .
•The song Syafiq was singing isn't mine and song credits go to Heathens-Twenty One Pilots .(^^;hehe I really liked the song so I put it in the story )
Hmm.. That should cover up everything ... Please comment if there's anything you'd like me to improve in or if you have any queries !
Thank you .
Yours faithfully ,
Izumi-san ♡
