My racing heart kept pummeling against my chest as I took in his appearance - charcoal black hair, soft brown eyes, a dark pink sweater, ripped jeans, and black-and-white converse. He was smiling brightly as he scrolled through his phone, not noticing my staring. Coughing quietly, I relaxed, and shook my head at my reaction.
The older male looked so familiar that it pestered me to death. I swear, I've seen him before in the past. But he wasn't triggering any type of memory - I know for a fact that I don't have any sort if amnesia, so that rules that possibility out. So, where have I seen him?
School would be starting soon, so maybe I should leave? It would be embarrassing for him to notice. Plus, I swear I saw some of the main gossipers come through the door five minutes ago. There was no way I would deal with that after my morning coffee, thank you very much.
Bading goodbye to Jennie with a wave, I started walking towards the exit. My hand was about to turn the door handle, when I suddenly heard a voice.
"There's no need to leave. They won't gossip ," it said, making me turn around. It didn't take me long to identify who that voice belonged to - the stranger.
I blinked, then looked right behind me. The stranger gazed at me, a neutral expression on his face. His phone was on the table, along with a pair of earbuds I never noticed until now. My stance shifted as he pointed to the seat across from him, inviting me over. Slowly and suspiciously, I accepted his kind offer and took a seat, keeping my drawstring bag secure.
"Gossipers will spill the tea they have to ruin my reputation," I informed. "The thing is, they end up worrying about what I can do to them, so they started minding their own business and only gossip amongst themselves."
"I guess you're the Princess of Muyell, YeonRa?" he asked, taking a sip of his coffee. “It's an honor to meet you.”
Raising my eyebrow, I pointed out my grey, oversized hoodie and denim skirt. “It's an honor to meet me in this outfit?” I playfully questioned, and he actually laughed. I took a peek at my phone and my eyes widened in surprise.
“Crap! I'm going to be late for school!” I exclaimed softly so that I did not disturb the talking customers around me. “Oh wait, I got twenty minutes left.” I felt a frown frame my lips. There was nobody to walk with me to Muyell and that made for feel very lonely.
The stranger noticed my expression. His index finger tapped against the black rim of the coffee lid as he offered, “I could walk with you, if you feel that alone. I'm going to the same school as you, anyway.”
Shrugging, I nodded shyly and adjusted the drawstring bag on my shoulder again. First, he went to go pay for his small breakfast. Then, we journeyed down the sidewalk silently. It was awkward for the first five minutes, which soon turned to ten.
“So, how does it feel?” he asked vaguely. “You know, being on top of the social hierarchy?” the stranger added.
I shrugged again. “From my point of view, I honestly try to cherish it while it lasts. There are privileges, but I don't have any knowledge of them. So, I still have no idea if it's a paradise,” I droned on. “Sorry, it's just that the two of us haven't said anything in ten minutes.”
“It's fine,” he said. “Oh, is this the place? Man, this place is larger than I expected,” he commented.
A pout formed on my lips. Do I really need to show him around the entire school?
Oh wait, those privileges I mentioned earlier. I almost forgot! Smiling, I tapped his shoulder. He looked at me and I could see that he was very worried.
“Don't worry, silly. I'll show you around the school. The teachers won't mind anyway, ?” I reminded, suddenly feeling relieved because of my luck. “By the way, you never told me your name…”
His cheeks suddenly flushed red. “M-my name? Uh…”
“Oh, you don't have to tell me if you don't want to,” I insisted, suddenly feeling that I've made him very uncomfortable.
“N-no! I-It's f-fine,” he stammered, trying to relax. “I mean… my… my old colleagues used to call me Sniper,” he finally replied.
My hands clasped together in delight. “Then I introduce, or welcome you back, if you're not exactly new here, to the prestigious Muyell High School, Sniper! I'll start showing you around right now, alright? Let's begin!”
