Kinien's POV
These past days I was avoiding Eyvin. Why? Because I know I'm falling for him. From the first time I saw them enter our room, he really got my attention. He became my seatmate in Math class and we became close. A flash of that scene passed on my mind.
Flashbacks~
Oh, the poker-faced guy is my new seatmate? Jeez, can I be friends with him?
"Hi." He said, still poker-faced.
"Oh. Hi." I greeted him back.
"What's your name?" He asked, tilting his head at the side. He looks so cute like a puppy!
"I'm Kininen Han Harth." I said then we shook hands. Woah! There's a shock of electricity.
"Uhh, my hand." I said as I saw him still not letting go.
"Sorry." He said then smiled.
Wow. He looks good when he smiles.
"Why are you staring, Han?" He asked.
"Huh? No! No, I'm not- what? hon?" I asked, blushing a little.
"Yes, Han." He said and smiled again. My heart started to race.
"Hon? Me? Why?" I asked. Oh please tell me he's not seeing me blushing.
"Yes, you. It's your second name right?" He said.
"Oh! Han! Yeah. Han, that’s me alright." Then I laughed awkwardly.
"Don't tell me you thought it's hon and not Han?" He teased me. I glared at him. "Don't worry, you'll be my girlfriend soon. You'll be my hon." He said.
"W-What do you mean girlfriend?! I'm a guy! I'm manly!" I shouted.
"I know." Then he winked at me. I blushed. "Hey, you blushed. That makes you my girlfriend now." He said then laughed. He looks refreshed when he laughs.
Ends of flashback~
Aaaahhhhh!
I should've stopped myself from being close to him. He always says he loves me, I know he's sincere but I can't love him. I'm afraid.
What if he falls out? What if he'll leave me soon? What if he'll hurt me, too? What if he's like him? Yes, I got a boyfriend back then. He's Mark. He left me because they've fallen out of love, he said he's tired of me. I'm afraid to get hurt again. I'm afraid to be left again.
Avoiding him was not easy. I have to make tons of excuses to get away from him. I even catched a cold from avoiding him. How? Well, I stayed outside all night because he's on my front door waiting for me. It rained that night and good thing there's a mini shed on my front door so he didn't get wet but I'm the one who got soaked instead.
Now I'm here in the park because I ran away from him. He asked me to be his boyfriend and I ran. How i***t am I?
Should I really take the risk? I know I already love him. Love is all about taking risks and sacrifices, right? I’m scared. But I can see how Vin’s different. He’s just aggressive in showing his feelings but he never fails to be considerate of me. Fine! I'll take the risk.
I smiled as I made my decision but that smile was changed by a groan when I felt someone stabbed me from the back.
No. How about my Eyvin? No. Sorry. Sorry I was so selfish.
"Eyvin." The last thing I said before I got drowned in the lake water.
