Relationship (Chapter 7)

As I opened my shoe locker a piece a paper fell to the ground. I picked it up and read it and it says.

"Dear, Seong Jae-Hyun I wish to meet you on the school roof after school as I have something to talk about".

I can make use of how things way have turned out. 

I made my way towards the school roof swiftly to meet this mysterious person. 

As I open the door that leads to the roof, a figure of someone I recently came to know was standing there and my guess is that she's the mystery sender. 

The figure is no other than Hasegawa Aoi. It seems that she has been waiting for quite sometime. She probably didn't expect me to stop by the teachers' office to take care some things. 

She hasn't realised that I'm here yet as she was looking out in the distance and us not facing the door. Given the opportunity I sneak up to her and tapped her shoulder and asked, "What are you looking at?".

She got startled and jump back. She lost her balance so I caught her into my embrace. I helped her stand up and saw that her face has a slight tinged of redness, probably from embarrassment. 

"Sorry Hasegawa, I didn't expect you would react like that", I said as put my palms together in front of my face. 

As I apologise she quickly regained herself and got back to her aloof self. 

"It's fine. It's my fault for not realising you were already here", she said softly. 

"What did you want to talk about? If it's going to take some time we can take a seat over there", I said as I was gesturing towards the bench in the distance. 

We walked there sat together but for some weird reason Hasegawa is sitting awfully close that it's very akward. But someone needs to break the ice. 

"Soooooo. Since we already have seat can you explain why that you want to meet me here?"

"Umu. I want you to be my boyfriend", she said with a straight face. 

"I can be your boyfriend. But! I have some condition that you must follow". 

"Okay. Name it I'll see what I can do."

"First, you need to be in the top 10 in the school for your studies". 

As I said that she nods. 

"Second, you can come to my house to hang out but you can't tell anyone where I'm staying". 

Accepting the second condition she nods again. 

"Third, I want to know why do you want to be in a relationship with someone you know no more than a day", I said with a curious face. 

"Umu. Everything is within my capabilities. The first condition is already fulfilled as I am the first in studies. The second intrigued me can I ask why is it a secret". 

"I'm staying in a big mansion that I inherited from my dead stepmom. If everyone knows of it the annoying group of kids will come to annoy me and I can't stand those type guys. If I actually snap I'm pretty sure their hospital bills price will definitely rocket up the roof" I said with murderous glint in my eyes. 

"I see, we definitely don't want someone like them to drop out of school because they pick a fight with you. As for the third condition, I felt like you're not like others and I can feel a certain connection", she said with great confidence. 

"How do you know that I won't treat you like a creep?" I asked with a suspicious look. 

"Your reactions tell everything. You don't feel weird out with the things I said like when I said I felt certain connection with you. A normal person would creep out when someone you barely know said that." She said seemingly convinced with her own words. 

"Hmmmm. I guess your answer is acceptable. Do you want to commemorate the day the both of us became a thing", I asked curious. 

"Sure, I know a place we can go tomorrow since it's a Saturday. Give me your number I send the details after I get home". 

"I don't own a phone as I deemed it unnecessary till now. I have a notebook here you can use it to write everything down", I said as I hand her an empty pocket sized notebook. 

"We can get a phone for you tomorrow if you have the money". 

And thus my relationship with Hasegawa Aoi began.
