1. Girl

"Yo, my name is Kiev."

"I am 17 years old, and I found everyone annoying."

If you listen in to the gossips and whispers of Kyouko High's students, there would always be one name that would surface.

Kiev.

Kiev wore a smile, so cheerful and charismatic. Though magnetic, it was a mask. A mask to hide his true self. Looking around him, as students resumed on their day, he scoffed at himself knowing that everyone around him lived in a world full of lies. After all, no one in this world is free of lies.

Inside the classroom of the Class - B, there was a fine guy that are really popular among the ladies sitting relaxed, and was laughing with his classmates.

"I'm bored. Any games you'd recommend?"

"yeah, me too. The last game I played was good, but I sucked at it."

"You sucks at everything, man."

"huh!? what the hell, are you picking a fight?, c'mom I'm on!"

Kiev stopped the two and offered a game.

"Yeah, yeah, sure, what game do you guys prefer?" Kiev offered.

"As long as I get a girlfriend for myself, I'm good at anything."

Kiev was wearing a deceit smile as he responded, although what is written on his concealed face were very different on what on his mind.

'damn! Here they are again, acting goody-cat in front of me and then saying some weird shit at my back!'

He did not show any traces of hatred in his angel-like face and just went on with a dishonest answer.

"Alright, alright. I just happen to know someone who likes to date girls and was playing this game, try it and just let me know if you got what you are looking for." Kiev replied while smirking sarcastically.

Kiev is very careful on how he mingles towards everyone. He's capable of finding out if a person is either lying or making use of him. He still hadn't met a single person to be genuinely honest, trustworthy, and free with lies.

Kiev is not just congenial, he is also a handsome guy, so in just a short period of time of his transfer to Kyouko Highschool, he was already named as campus crush.

His charismatic appearance and astounding height can undoubtedly make everyone fall in love with him. His hair is naturally silky black he got from his father and it is highlighted by his angelic eyes that is passed down from his mom. He's also from a wealthy family, which makes him more attractive.

Every time he passed by the hallway of the campus, all the girls would obsessively shout;

"Look, It's Kiev!"

"He's so handsome!"

"He's so perfect!"

"Hello Kiev!"

Waving back at the girls, continuing walking towards the bathroom, inhumane words were running through his mind.

'I'm not that kind of idiot who would be jumping of joy just because of a mere womens calling me what they want. Tsk!'

While he was peacefully walking at the side yard of the University, all his attention was caught by the girl sitting beside the garden. He went towards the unknown girl.

*Bam!*

Kiev jumped in front of an unfamiliar lady.

"Oh sorry, I didn't saw you coming,"

The girl swayed her face towards Kiev and stared, followed by a hearable whisper.

"Disgusting."

He pretend not to hear the sweet tone yet frightening words of the unfamiliar girl and just responded.

"Pardon? I think I've misheard you miss."

He asks the girl again but there's one thing he was sure, he undoubtedly heard her correctly.

His heart was beating so fast with the thoughts of how the girl knew him given that he hasn't met the girl even once in his entire life.

The girl gets up from sitting and paced towards Kiev. She then stared straight at Kiev and answered sarcastically.

"Lying won't work on me, quit pretending, that disgust me."

Kiev looked at the other direction instead of the girl and started shaking after all he heard by the girl in front of his eyes.

"What do you mean, you know you're not making any sense."

He was highly stung by the words of the girl that seemed to be not just a normal girl and was responded.

"hee-hee, hee-hee. I think you've got the wrong person."

*Grinned!*

The girl chuckled and what comes of her after left Kiev into shock.

"My guts never lets me get disappointed." She chuckled.

"??"

"You're a liar inside."

Kiev felt very anxious. He'd never thought there was someone who would be able to see the mask he was wearing for a very long time. He had no idea how the girl knew about it.

"Hee hee.. What do you mean"

Kiev was very fazed and tried to ask the girl to come with him.

"Do you mind if I ask you to come with me for a second?"

"And how can I ensure my safety?"

"I won't do anything to you, I promise."

The youth agreed to go along and went at the park near the campus. They arrived at the park together, Kiev took a deep breath and Immediately asked the girl.

"So, how much do you know about me? A stalker?"

Kiev grumbled against the young lady. The girl replied

"Don't you think not asking the name first is somewhat rude when you are trying to befriend with someone?"

"Drop that shit! Tell me how come you knew my secret!"

He was very pissed and scared because he knew that the girl might spread to people his real personality.

"With my guts. I am sure we are about the same. Just like you, I can as well tell if a person is either a liar or genuinely honest, and unfortunately, you approached the wrong person, In short, You came at me."

"And by the way, It's Keyla."

Kiev was flabbergasted and was sweating a lot. He didn't think that there might be someone who is out there living the same world as him.

"Shit! How careless of me!" Kiev Whined.

Kiev took his precious time to calmed himself down and took a deep sigh.

"Keyla, can you pretend to not know anything?"

Keyla immediately responded. "I can, but It's not free, There's nothing free in this world you know."

Kiev lost his temper that leads him in the thought of hurting Keyla. He was certainly sure that the return of the favor was not that light. Kiev was just about to hit the girl but Keyla spoke in a honeyed tone that made Kiev unable to touch her.

"I'm warning you, that wouldn't work."

"How?"

Keyla looked sorrowful and looked down for a moment, and suddenly the wind gave an massive amount of blow.

"It's a secret."

"Let's make a deal."

"Shit! Fine! what deal is it?"

The girl wore a smile on her face and looked straight at Kiev. Seeing the sweet smile of the teasing girl, Kiev's anger seems to have subsided. He felt like he had seen that lovely smile back then.

A while moment passed, Keyla stated an unbelievable offer to the young man.

"Be my friend."

"Huh? Don't mess with me! What the hell are you talking about!" Kiev growled.
