Challenges come and go in life. Sometimes they push people to make a change, sometimes people choose to ignore the challenge. For [your name], she has faced many challenges in her life. Some of them were challenging, some of them weren't that bad. She wasn't one to care too much about challenges, but when they came back at her, it was another story. What she didn't know was that as crazy life can be, some of the challenges she's already faced were going to come back at her slowly.
The vibration of her phone with the loud sound of the radar ringtone blaring was more than enough to wake her up for her first day of class. How could she forget that she chose 8 am classes so that she could sleep in for the rest of the day, but she was starting to regret it a bit. Maybe afternoon classes would have been better so that she could sleep in during the mornings. Yet here she was, getting up from her bed and walking over to her closet to grab her towel to shower. After a nice and warm shower, she decided to take her bonnet off and spritz water on her wig. She also made sure that she added a bit of mousse so that the curls could stay locked in for the day since her classes were over in the afternoon. It truly felt to her that she was reliving high school all over again. The smell of the passionfruit tea woke her up a bit as she took small sips after blowing the hot air away each time.

The walk to class was peaceful to her as she had pink + white by Frank Ocean playing in her airpods as she stared at the morning sky. New beginnings like this always found a way to make her feel uneasy at times. [your name] didn't know what or how to feel going into class. A part of her was happy because she'd feel that she wouldn't see people from school, but another part of her was anxious because what if she did see some of those people? She wanted to start a new chapter in life, hoping that this volume of her book was filled with nothing but happiness.
Yet that statement was quickly taken back when she stepped her left foot into her philosophy class. Eight o'clock in the morning, and the class was a bit early. Then again it was the first day of classes, but that was not her concern. Her concern was the empty seat that was in front of her as half of her body was inside of the classroom.
This had to be some kind of a joke or even a dream, what was he doing here? Especially in her philosophy class? A class that he had zero interest in whatsoever.
"[your name]?" he turned around to face her while she sighed.
It was too late for her to turn back now, he already placed his bag off the chair and acknowledged her.
"Hello Renjun..." she trailed off with a not so enthusiastic face.
He could sense her mood, so he tried to come up with something that wouldn't make her angry. Yet what the hell could he say after all these years?
Huang Renjun, the first boy to ever break her heart. That day was vivid in her memory whenever she stared at him, how the hell could she not hate him?
It was Jeno's 13th birthday, and they all sat in the living room. Now the adults were in the backyard while they assumed that the "preteens" were winding down after eating so much, but little did they know that these not so innocent children decided to play a game of spin the bottle. Now everyone sitting in the circle agreed to kiss the person for 15 seconds and that was because they never knew when an adult would randomly waltz in. Now, [your name] was excited because this was the first time that she'd ever attend a party and Renjun would be there. Renjun was someone that she has had a crush on since 6th grade in their math class. She was lucky enough to have at least two classes with him each year, and now that she was invited to his friend's birthday party, she was living the dream. Or that was what she thought.
Being the first person to spin the bottle was a lot of pressure, especially for someone who did not know how the game really went. She was lucky that the bottle landed on Renjun, but he wasn't happy. That curious smile he had on his face quickly transformed into a straight face. Hearing the 'Ooo's' and 'Ahh's' did not make him any happier at all.
"Well..." Haechan trailed off with a smirk.
"What are two waiting for? Kick the game off already," he clapped his hands.
[Your name] made her way to the middle where Renjun was hesitant but made his way there with the help of Haechan, "Don't get the wrong idea..." he whispered, looking at her.
"I wanted the bottle to land on Anna-Marie, not you," his harsh tone pierced a hole into her heart as she stared at him.
What was the point of her even starting this stupid game? The boy that she liked, crushed her heart before she could even get her chance with him. She stared right at the male and before she knew it, her hand went flying across his face instead of their lips touching. [your name] couldn't help but leave the party as everyone watched her storm off, she wanted to cry hysterically. Instead, she let a few tears out and quickly wiped them away. Renjun was not worth her tears, he was a cute boy that had an ugly personality hidden very well. Instead of crying over a jackass, she grabbed a piece of paper and a pen. She decided to write to the boy who rejected her. She wrote about her feelings for him before and now after seeing who he really was.
"You don't look too happy to see me," he chuckled while she gave him a blank stare.
"Why the fuck would I be happy to see you? I spent most of high school avoidin' ya' ass and I wanted to keep it that way," she huffed, placing her bag on the side of her chair.
"Look, I know I was a terrible person back then, and I do want to apologize for how I acted in the past," she couldn't help but chuckle as she looked at him.
"That apology is a lil' too late dontcha' think?" she tilted her head to the side to stare at him.
His cheeks flushed red as he looked down at his desk. She was right, he should've apologized that night instead of doing so now. What was the point if that was long ago? But he didn't feel comfortable sitting here knowing that what he said a few years back her hurt her feeling and he didn't apologize. He was hoping that sooner or later, that she'd accept his apology.
