THEO'S POV:
At school.
I ride my heavy bike at full speed and park it in the school parking lot.
Girls scream.
"Oh my God! So handsome!"
"He looks hot with his bike!!!"
"Omg, he gives mafia vibes!!!!"
I ignore their whispers and head straight to my section.
I spot Sevi editing the photos he took.
Theo: Hi, buddy. What's up?
Sevi: Hey, dude! How was your visit to Japan?
Theo: As usual, nothing special.
Sevi: Did you bring me anything?
Theo: Yeah… here.
Sevi: A new watch! Oh man, this looks good….
Theo: By the way, where's Kayla? Hasn't she arrived yet?
Sevi: You two live in the same house, right? Then you should know where she is…
Theo: Same house, yeah....but I woke up early, went for a walk, then came straight here after showering and changing. I didn't see her this morning.
Sevi: Ohhh… no, she's not here yet.
The sound of a helicopter fills the air.
Sevi: She's here….
As she enters the class, my eyes, like always, admire her beauty. I smile the moment I see her. The whole school is obsessed with her looks, but for me, her real beauty is her soul, the way she loves deeply, truly cares for her friendships, and would do anything to protect the people she loves.
Kayla: Hey, man! How are you?!
Theo: Handsome as ever.
I run a hand through my messy hair.
Kayla: Rolling her eyes Too self-obsessed…..
I think:
Or your obsessed.
Kayla: The teacher's in the hospital, so no class today!
Theo: Oh, really? Who sent him to the hospital?
I cross my arms, already knowing the answer.
Kayla: Rolling her eyes It's his fault. He ruined my trap for the trash can…..
Theo: Trash can…?
Kayla: Chuckles Yeah, trash. The new couple in our school. Trip and Atasha. Trash.
We both burst out laughing.
