[9:00 a.m.]

Ring!!!!

Ring!!!

"Ugh what day is it.." With a sleepy look on his face.

And while his muttering he suddenly remember that the Christmas party will be held right now.

[Christmas Party is an event of school before the break happened, that held every december 15, to let students and teachers have fun while playing games, eating and even having a exchange gifts.]

"Oh sh*t i forgot"

"No no no no, it's acually going to start right now, i have to hurry"

[10 minuter later]

"Hmm? I think this is good?"

A boy can be seen, dressed with a white color cloth that is tuck in, in the black pants while wearing a watch.

"It's good but... I rather get my hair back to normally where it does"

Will i'm not an extrovert type, i'm more likely a introvert. I may be look miserable in the outside but in the inside i have a... Let's just say a normal face i guess?.... Will it's not like i'm trying to hide my face it's just that... I'm bored at school, to the point that i'll go home after the class dismiss and it's not that i don't have a friends because almost likely all the boys in the class is my friends already haha.

The boy suddenly mess his hair, and got his bangs back to normal, hiding his forehead and eyebrows.

"I think this is good"

He then started preparing and brought a food for his contribution for the christmas party. He then leave the house and started walking.

[Oh yeah if your curious why his wearing such a thing at school. Because it depends on the students what to wear, but it also depends in your class to suggest, like colored clothing, formal clothing and aesthetic clothing.]

Oh yeah i forgat to introduce my self, I'm Liam Cruz, a plain looking guy with a 5'8 tall. I'm studying at STU Junior Highschool. I may be look like this but, I'm good at reading people.

10 minutes later

"I'm almost at school"

wow, it's great that i wear this... Because almost all of the students, is wearing beautiful clothes.

"Ohh it's Liam!"

"Liam here! Come here"

I wonder my eyes and seen who is the one calling me.

Hmm? Oh its jacob and? Hmm

Jacob Sanchez, Michael Castillo, Chloe Casa

Oh and... Sofia [Sofia Diaz]

As always she's beautiful especially when she dressed like that.

"Good morning liam!"

"Good morning Liam"-Chloe

"Morning Liam"- Michael

"Good morning" i replied

Sofia is still talking to someone at the phone, As always she doesn't care of me.

"Oh Liam your outfit is beautiful and your kinda handsome ho?" Said by Jacob."

"your bluffing haha"

"no i'm not... hey Michael just look at Liam he looks handsome right?" Jacob who called Michael who is playing games at his right side started looking at me while moving his glasses on his eyes, i then started to look imbarrased of Machael serious eyes.

but then he said" oh yeah you look handsome Liam, by the way where did you buy that t shirt it looks cool, iwant it to" Michael who is plying games started to question me about my outfit. but then someone interfer by the questioning and started saying.

"huu, Liam are confessing to someone?, who is it?, is it someone to our class?"

said by Chloe who first listening to us and now started to become a love questioner.

"h-huh? n-no.. of course not!" i who look pressured by the question started to sweat. but will it's not like i'm going to confess to someone it just that, the question is out of blue.

"hey take it easy, it would be look like that your really confessing to someone" said by Chloe

"hmm hmm, will it's not like i'm confessing, and i don't have a courage to do that... someone like me..." me who started to look emotionless, the atmosphere started to look gloomy and then Chloe started to talk again and said with a sincere look" hey don't be like that, even though your confidence is like that right now, maybe after this year those shattered confidence of yours will comeback and i will correct you, even a so well known beautiful girl likely you would confess to she would accept you, you know?, oh yeah.. as Jacob said Liam, you look cool today" she who smiled at me who has a glass on her eyes, i then make a faint smile at the praise she said and a killing intent has been brought to me, and i know who it is it's Michael "haha" who has a crush on Chloe

i then said to him without talking 'ok man sorry haha and stop with that killing intent of yours'

oh yeah by the way Michael and Jacob is one of my closest friend in the class and Jacob is a very funny one, he always slacking, even if there's a class he would rather sleep but his good at ball game. while Michael who is bad at ball games but good at study and online games

i looked at Jacob at the left side and tease him a little and said.

"Hoo, so what are you doing here are you getting in trouble again even thought it's Christmas party"

"Huh... No no no" reply by Jacob while wondering his eyes at the left.

As always haha....

"it his fault running in the hallway" said by Michael

"How dare you said that, your the one who is chasing me!"

"It's because you keep bothering me!"

"Heyheyy!" Replied by Jacob

Hahaha

"Hey stop it guys" said by Chloe

"Oh so Chloe why are you here, did you get punish to?"

"No no no, it's because of this troublesome two"

"So why are you here?"

"It's because the timing is so bad." Chloe with a frustrated look

"The time when they're getting punish i was there, and the foods we buy will be arrive so, this two was ordered to get it and because i was at our teacher's right part, i was the one who is ordered to watch this two"

"Ahh, haha, sorry for those two"

"No it's ok"

I wonder my eyes to Sofia and asked Chloe.

"Hmm.. What about Sofia why is she here?"

"Oh it's because she was the one who ordered it and the one holding the money."

I knew it

As always, even the teachers admire her way of thinking, she's smart, beautiful, and she's good at leadership. That's why i admired her... But not to the point that i like her, it's just that i admire her leadership, how she communicate with others, and the way she looks like.

Sofia wonder her eyes to me and i said"good morning" but she ignore me.

A second later she said" Liam can you help us with the foods because i think it would be many"

"oh... ok"

"Sorry for the trouble"-Sofia

"No it's ok, because Jacob and Michael is here."

She talked to me hu? It rare haha.

Why did she suddenly become like that to me in the first place? At first the way she talk to me is like she normally does with our classmates but she suddenly change out of nowhere.

Will even i can't look at her in the eyes.... Because even thought i'm good at reading people, this... Became my weakness...

Why you say?

It's because normally when it come to my close friends i can look at them easily and read them, while when it comes to stranger or classmates... I can't look at them... My eyes wonder every angle everytime i talk to the girl to the point that i can't even look at them at there eyes. If that wasn't enough this would can call me a freak.

Everytime it come to class, my eyes wondered everywhere and every angle of the classroom and when someone look at me eye to eye while i was wondering my eyes, my eyes will suddenly skip, and that will repeat again and again, everytime... Everyday. To the point that they mock me everytime and call me, i have a crush on them or.... A Freak.

I can't even take it anymore that's why everytime i got a chance i'm near them, i would talk about myself that i always wonder my eyes everytime, to clear my name.

I'm not lying on what i said that day. I'm happy when they're become closer to me again, that why i don't want to make that mistake again.

But of course there still someone who is aware of me... And that's Sofia and that two.

And i think i don't need them to notice me again, because they totally ignoring me.... Why can't they get over of what happened 4 months ago ahhhh!.-With a frustrated look on Liam face.

.... Will i'm not really catching attention..., it's just that i don't want to make that same mistake again... 4 years ago.

"Hey liam"

"Liam"

4 years ago... - Liam who is almost getting unconscious.

"Heyyyy!"-Jacob

"Whwhwhattt?!!"

"Your overthinking again... you really are a overthinker you know."

"Ohh sorry haha"

"The foods arrive already oi"

"Oh yeah haha... Let's go get it?"

Don't overthink it Liam... Don't... It's already in the past.

Smack- Liam slapped his face to wake up.

Let's go.
