The Cold One / Wu Yifan

Chapter 02

"Okay class, now focus. Elena, mind if I have your attention too? Please?" Mrs. Park said in a stern voice. Snapping her attention back to the boring lecture once again. She sighed, looking at her overly upset history teacher.

"Please continue. I'm all ears!" She remarked, smirking at now visibly frowning teacher.

"I won't allow this disrespect in my class! Leave. Now!" Mrs. Park exclaimed, gritting her teeth and slapping her hands on the table.

"Gladly. I was bored to death anyway." She casually gathered up her things like nothing happened and calmly walked pass the room. But when she brushed pass the front table, she accidentally hit the front benched boy's elbow, causing the book he was holding to fall to the floor with a thud.

"Sorry," She quckily bent down to take the book from the floor, handing it to its owner. And went out of the classroom. Not sparing another glance at the class, or the boy.

"I told you, she's a psychopath!" He heard Zitao muttered next to him. But he was too absorbed by the tiny connection he felt when she handed him the book. He looked at his hand, remembering the touch.

"Yifan, focus!" Mrs. Park's voice rang against his eardrums. And this time, he did snap his head towards.

She walked down the hall, since it was the last period, she expected to go home. 'Home' The word itself brought bitterness into her mouth. She swallowed down the saliva that kept coming into her mouth like water. She clearly felt sick in her stomach. But soon the thought drifted off when she remembered that one person. The only reason she was bearing going back to 'Home', was him.

And surprisingly, there he was, kneeling down in front of one of the classrooms.

"Sehun?" She bit down a chuckle as the latter's head snapped at her way.

"The hell have happened to you?" This time, she did give out a soft chuckle. Looking at her dumb brother's dumb pouty face.

"He punished me. He always punishes me! It's not my fault that i'm not good at math!" He pouted, staring at the floor in embarrassment.

"Let's go." She simply said, grabbing Sehun's hand to help him stand.

"No! Mr. Choi said that I should be here when he finishes the class." He said, refusing her offer.

"Argh! Nobody's gonna notice if you're gone. Besides, this is the final period. So he doesn't even care." She insisted.

"O-Okay," He finally agreed, after competing a staring contest with the floor.

"You're so cute!" She pinched her younger brother's squishy cheeks. Earning a pout and a giggle in return.

"Noona! I'm not cute!"

"Oh shut up! You are the cutest!" She said as she dragged him down the hallway with her.
