One Kiss To Fall - Volume 1 Chapter 18 My Point Of View?
And there he stood. The person that came into my mind.
My mind was blank for a moment and I couldn’t get my thoughts together quick enough to see his face. I’ve seen him before but why can’t I distinguish his face, or see him clearly.
And in a flash, he disappeared, so all that I could remember was a handsome man’s silhouette.
In fact, I was distracted for so long, my eyes blurred, that I didn’t notice the bell had already gone and everybody was in class.
The corridors now were dead silent.
I speedily ran to my class, and sat down, trying not to make a mess of myself in front of the class because the last thing I need is a detention. Luckily not many people noticed me, and if they did, they just looked away.
I took my books out for the lesson and quietly go on with my work. I didn’t realise that someone was sitting next to me until Li Wei himself decided to nudge me.
Me being my usual self, was so unattentive to the point where I didn’t even notice what was happening around me.
So, when he casually meant to nudge me, I jumped out of my seat and screamed.
Yes, literally screamed.
The whole class looked at Li Wei and me, with death looks, jealousy but mostly, ridicule.
I was officially the clown of the class, thanks to him.
All the girls snickered while laughing with mockery filled eyes. Soon enough, the professor quietened down the class and continued as usual. At the end, when he dismissed the class, he said,
“Li Wei and Li Na, stay behind, I must speak to both of you.”
I was petrified because I had never gotten into this type of trouble before, at least not what I can remember.
Funnily enough, after we stayed back in class, Li Wei closed the gap between us and whispered into my ear,
“Enjoy the show.”
I couldn’t decipher what he said, so I ignored him, got up, and walked to the professor.
As I was about to explain to him what happened, Li Wei took a step forward and said sternly,
“It was my fault, Li Na had nothing to do with it.”
Whatever he said in that sentence must’ve shaken the professor up, because he instantly let us off.
It was really awkward walking with him, he was so tall and so beautiful, whereas I was just a small girl.
Wait, since when was he beautiful?
Oh God, he is messing with my brain already, and it hasn’t even been 1 week.
He suddenly stopped in front of me, that I had no time to react, and embarrassingly bumped into him.
I was so humiliated of myself that I quickly turned around and covered my face before running to the canteen.
However, he strongly grabbed my arm, pulled me close to him until I felt me forehead touch his chest.
I have to say, he smelt really good.
Ok ok, Li Na, stop your thoughts right there!
He just laughed and asked me, taking me away from my daze back to reality,
“Do I look that good to you?”
I was so sick from his comment that I removed myself from his grip with power, looked up and using my eyes, questioned him of his mentality.
I asked him, “Are you that narcissistic?”
He answered into my ear, “I’ve never met anyone who doesn’t like my looks, are you different, perhaps…”
His breath passed my ear. This last sentence of his made me so mad, I angrily stomped toward the lunch hall with no hesitation whatsoever.
