Chapter 29: Found It

Meanwhile…

-JO GINGER-

Should I? Or not?

It’s currently math class, and the teacher left the classroom for a bit. He gave us a seatwork to answer before he left, and I had already finished mine, but the problem is…

My seatmate is asleep and snoring up a storm.

So, should I wake him up? If this goes on, the teacher will be back already and scold him.

And wow, he’s snoring so loudly. He was facing me with his eyes, still closed. I noticed his mole near his right eye again. Before I knew it, I touched his mole. For some reason, this beauty mark bothers me. It looked like a tear. And I thought he was crying. Then suddenly, my finger was grabbed, and I thought my heart would jump out of my chest.

“Like what you see?” He slowly opens his eyes and smiles. Then he sat up straight and pulled my finger towards him, bringing me closer to him.

The short distance overwhelmed me, and we locked eyes for a moment, and then I pulled away from him.
