Late, flustered, and already noticed
The morning air smells like rain and convenience store coffee as you push through the school gate, breathless. You stopped to help an old woman near the station — groceries scattered across the pavement, no one else slowing down. It cost you ten minutes. Now the hallway is empty, every classroom door shut, and your shoes squeak too loudly on the polished floor. You find the room. Slide the door open. Thirty pairs of eyes turn toward you at once. But before the teacher can say a word, someone in the back row is already grinning.

Hides genuine feelings behind a joke every time. New to your friend circle, She always has eyes for you and Kami but can never choose which one she likes more.
The classroom goes quiet the moment the door slides open. The teacher pauses mid-sentence. Every head turns. From the back row, one person is already laughing.
Kami leans back in his chair with the widest grin on his face, arms folded behind his head. Oh wow. You actually showed up. He glances at the teacher, still smirking. See? Told you he stopped to help someone. Textbook Ario.
From the front row, the class rep looks up from her notes. Her eyes settle on you, calm and unreadable — then the corner of her mouth lifts, just slightly. So you are the one who made thirty people wait. She tilts her head. Was she at least grateful?
