[Rinako]

IF THERE was one thing that I'd truly cherished the most whenever I go to the library and decide to stay there, it was the silence in one particular corner. Well, I just wanted to stay there. But I won't consider it as an act of a bookworm by merely staying there. Especially during my vacant period.

I just wanted to relish the silence of the place, since I needed it for me to be able to internalize. At that moment, I've tried to focus my attention on the assignment that I needed to finish so I won't anything to worry about when I got home.

But seriously, this was infuriating!

Despite my desire to internalize, so I could concentrate, my mind won't even cooperate. My mind would continue going back to that event that happened in the classroom two days ago. That event was truly a heart-pounding one.

At the moment, still, I couldn't calm my heart down from pounding too much each time I would unintentionally recall it. Not a second wasted whenever it happened. It won't even give me a chance to prevent it. It was frustrating!

But then... I couldn't help thinking.

Seriously, what was running in that guy's mind? Why was he acting like that to me? Couldn't he give me one day to let my heart remain at peace from all that he was doing to disturb it? Yes, I would admit it now that he was disturbing my heart and not just my mind.

Just a little more, and I would soon find myself insane from dealing with all of these.

I shook my head after that. I felt confused until that moment. But I shouldn't be thinking about that. I still had some concentration to do if I wanted to pass. I shouldn't let anything affect me.

I returned to the classroom after several minutes of concentrating to work on my homework. Well, it was a good thing that I still managed to finish something even though I couldn't fully concentrate because of me inadvertently recalling what that Setsuji Jerk did.

As I opened the door, I couldn't help frowning. I saw something placed on the teacher's table. Although initially, there was nothing weird about that. But I couldn't help feeling something close to that. Especially when no one was in the classroom at the time.

Wait a minute... What time was it, anyway?

But even so, I walked towards the table even though the confusion I felt never left me. I checked whatever it was that they placed on the table. It was a large cup of hot coffee.

A hazelnut coffee, at that.

Posted to it was a blue post-it note with words written. And to be honest, it gave me a surprise upon seeing that it came from Setsuji!

And he was giving it to me!

Just what kind of craziness lurking in that guy's mind again for him to do this crazy thing, huh?

'I know you don't like black coffee or even cream. That's why I chose this to give to you, instead. I hope it's to your liking. And I'm hoping that you would immediately remember me before you go home. Hehe!'

Was he this serious? Was this for real?

I could've snorted and rolled my eyes after reading that. But I didn't why I never did something like that. I hate to admit it but I couldn't help feeling giddy ("kilig") for that simple gesture he did. I wanted to be angry at myself because of that.

But I guessed it would be useless to do so.

And he even wanted me to remember him, huh?

I could only shake my heart because of that. Talk about absurdity...

"Yeah, right. I would remember him. He just gave me caffeine. Seriously, does this guy even know that I don't drink coffee before the evening?" I said to myself like an idiot while holding that large cup of coffee.

And even if I don't want to, I was tempted to have a taste of that coffee. I just shook my head in slight disbelief for making me do something like that.

Well, I had to admit, that crazy guy knew how to pick a delicious hazelnut coffee. In all fairness to him! True to his words, it did make me think of him.

Honestly, I wasn't even sure at the moment if I should laugh or be irritated because of that truth.

Geez! What a day I had...
