5 Should I Give it a Chance?

The next day..

Girl 1: "Hey girls! Did you already see that new hottie instructor?"

Girl 2: "Wait! Is he the tall man with skin looks so supple and smooth, rosy freckled cheeks, high-bridged nose, pink juicy lips—"

Girl 3: "Hep! Stop! Aren't you little exaggerated describing him?"

Girl 2: "Hmpf! Why do you even care.."

Girl 1: "I have heard he's in the engineering department. My friends there said he's from—"

Upon hearing the conversation, Jhun only wanted nothing but peace. She didn't want anyone to learn that she and Icen.. rather Teacher Icen knew each other. Things would just get more complicated. Eiji was more than enough to make her head ached.

"Do you have any plans tonight?" Eiji was already sitting next to her. Jhun stared at him for like 5 seconds then sighed afterwards.

"Wah! What's with the—?!" Eiji showed an unbelievable expression like the latter had reveal his little dark secret. "You know.. this is our last year so we need to wind up ourselves! Yourself!" He said like it's a matter-of-fact.

"Ah! You mean.. to loosen up? Like you did last year? After the final exams, your ex-girlfriend cheated on and broke up with you so you drowned yourself in alcohol, right? Then you made me come just to throw up on me. And like a crazy guy, you're shouting in the streets that you're the one supposed to end the relationship and not her. Did I remember it right?" Jhun said it with no bitterness at all.

'Aish this girl.. why does she always need to bring up that past?' Eiji glared at her. "Okay okay. I was sorry for that. And please.. it's a different case. I know you really don't like these kind of things but what I'm trying to say here is, I want you to enjoy and experience it even just for once. While we're still free from the busy hectic sched later on. Try it for yourself. But if you won't like it, then be it. Don't worry I'll behave and I promise.. will take the full responsibility of you" He intently stare but now with warmer eyes.

Jhun really felt Eiji's sincerity in his words. 'Should I give it a chance?' since this was her last year in the university and there's no harm in trying..

"Is that so? But in one condition.."

A smile curved in his lips.

"You would not force me to drink any liquor. I would just accompany you. That's all. Got it?" Jhun raised her eyebrow underneath the round eyeglasses.

"Yeah sure! No problem!" Eiji's smile grew wide. Finally, he got convinced her.

"So what should I wear?"

"Hmm.. the one you wore last acquaintance ball? That suits." As Eiji was to return back to his seat, Jhun suddenly spoke.

"Alright. And one last thing.." He stopped and they looked right into each other's eyes. "Never expect me to put any makeup on." The bell rung.

His lips twitched. 'The better—'

Jhun: "Are you saying anything?"

Eiji: "Oh? None. By the way, pick you up at 9"

He winked and rushed back to his seat because their first subject was about to start..
