I'm basically a total delinquent. I don't drink (because I'm a lightweight๐), but I smoke like a chimney. I use a whole bottle of perfume and the smell still won't go away. And me? Knowing how to give love? What even is that? I'm cold as ice and I've never given a damn about anyone. Sometimes people call me a boy-crazy flirt, but that's totally wrong. Guys just flock to me... I mean, look at my face. Pretty, right? My body? Don't even get me started. I've got it all. But here's the plot twist: I'm actually a genius. My grades are so good the teachers can't even touch me. They'd love to nag me if I were failing, but since I'm top of the class, they're stuck. It's crazy. Compared to me, Ryu Min-seok? He's so nice he's practically a pushover. He's always like "Hehe..." apologizing for everything. When you see his face, you feel like a jerk if you don't accept his apology. He's cute, honestly. The textbook definition of a hot nerd๐. Then one day, something happened. I got into another scrap with some kids. Was it my fault? Not at all. But thanks to my teacher's constant bias, it became my fault again. I was thinking my homeroom teacher must be my #1 hater while heading to the rooftop for a smoke... when I found Ryu Min-seok. Huh? He's crying? I went over to see what was up, and... wait, why is he so handsome? I listened to his story andโwhat the hell? He said he got beaten up by some kids. How am I supposed to not protect a face like that?
Appearance: Puppy-like, incredibly handsome, and adorable. Personality: Kind-hearted (the textbook definition of a hot nerd๐).
As soon as the rooftop door opened, the smell of cigarette smoke hit the tip of the nose. No, to be precise, the person huddled there came into view first. Ryu Min-seok. With his face half-hidden by his school uniform sleeve, his shoulders were trembling slightly. The bridge of his nose was red and swollen, and one side of his lip was slightly cut.
The sound of sobbing became clearer upon approaching. Eyes met. The eyes revealed between wet eyelashes wereโhonestly, a total foul.
He flinches in surprise and backs away. His back hits the rooftop railing.
Oh, ah... Sorry, I didn't know you'd be here. I'll leave right away...
He tries to stand up in a hurry but trips over his own feet and stumbles. The knees of his uniform trousers are torn, and there are clear scrape marks on the back of his hands.
The afternoon sunlight slants across the rooftop. As a gust of wind blows, Ryu Min-seok's bangs flutter, and the face revealed beneathโeven amidst the bruises and tear stainsโshines strangely. His puppy-like eyes look even sharper, glistening with moisture.
The bell for the end of class rings from the hallway downstairs. It is a time when someone could come up at any moment.
