Albert hear Kuros foot steps following him behind.

he have thousand of questions for Kuro, yet he knew better to not ask it.

a memory play out in his mind, when he was walking home from school after he finished with the Student Council research on something. 

he walk alone on a dimly lighted neighbourhood. as he walk nearing a playground, his eyes wander to the playground and saw Kuro sitting on the one of the swing.

curious of why Kuro would still be out at this hour, Albert thought that Kuro had not goes home for he is still wearing his school uniform.

curios, Albert start to walk toward the playground. but Albert stop his step after he notice a large bruise on Kuros face. 

a cold run through Alberts spine, to see Kuro tearing up.

Albert step back, and walk away from the ground silently.

suddenly Albert feel a hand patting his back, snapping him back to today. 

"Albert? arent you going to your class??" Kuro ask while looking at Albert weird.

Albert quickly turn his head to Kuro, he look at the masked Kuro with a face full of worry.

Kuro take a step back weird out by Albert's expression.

"y-yeah, thanks for walk me to my class.." Albert said looking at his classroom door.

"sure..?", suddenly Albert pat Kuro's head. Kuro stood frozen by Albert sudden touch.

slowly Kuro look up to see Albert face, "you can.. ask me for help.." mumble Albert with a worried face.

"huh?" Kuro confused, 

"y-your hair.. it messy" said Albert with his expression suddenly become annoyed.

quickly Albert storm off and went inside of his classroom, closing the door behind him. leaving Kuro there stood in confusion. 

"eh?? he suddenly got annoyed??" he wonder. "maybe, he is a little of a clean freak??" Kuro thought before going walking to his class. 

as he was turning through a corner he bump into Ki Woon who was also going to his class.

"ah! Ki Woon!!" he scream, Ki Woon eyes widen in shock of the sudden scream from Kuro.

"Ki Woon, i really want to thank you for buying me those snacks yesterday!" Kuro bowed down in gratitude thanking Ki Woon.

Ki Woon sigh, "oh its about that.."

"its alright, i should do it after all. i suddenly kidnapped you from your class and bring you to the Student Council meeting room.." Ki Woons face slowly sadden.

"my savior starve because of me.." he frown in disappointment like a little puppy.

Kuro quickly shake his head disagreeing to Ki Woon. "what! no you already help me!! i didnt even want to go to the canteen when you kidnap me, and you go out of your way to buy me something. i really appreciate that" Kuro explain in hope to cheer Ki Woon a little.

Ki Woon smiled warmly to Kuro, he then bowed down to Kuro, resting his head on Kuro shoulder. "ok, ill buy you more snack from now on" he whisper.

"you should not, buy it for yourself" said Kuro patting Ki Woon's back.

 suddenly some guy from Ki Woon class called him from a far. making Ki Woon quickly lift his head from Kuros shoulder. 

"it seems like you have to go" said Kuro before he wave goodbye to Ki Woon and walk off to his class.

but suddenly Kuro was stop after taking two step to his class. Ki Woon catch his hand, with a quite serious face. 

"are you alright? are you wearing a mask because your sick?" he question.

hesitant, Kuro told him "dont worry about it.. i just feel like wearing it.." Kuro avoided Ki Woons eyes. 

Ki Woon hand still holding on to Kuro's hand. Kuro start to wonder if Ki Woon gonna start to pick him up and run to the infirmary room again. but Ki Woon slowly let Kuros hand go.

"alright.." Ki Woon answer, "go on to your class.." he wave Kuro goodbye before walking off to the hallway. 

"ah.. right" said Kuro, confused by his respond. but Kuro doesnt have that much energy to think too deep, so he continue to walk toward his classroom.

when he arrive at his class, he make his step faster toward his desk. quickly sit down to his chair as he look around to his classmate.

some are rushing on their homework, some were talking to their friend. 

"did you hear about those new game?"

"i saw this really hot chick that work at a restaurant near my house"

"can i borrow your math? im too tired last night to finish it"

Kuro feel fun when ever he watch his classmate interact with one another. it fill something inside his lonely heart. 

"ok, shut up and go back to your own seats!!" Mr. Sato walk into the classroom.

his eyes widen to see Kuro in his seat, "you here Kuro. why are you wearing a mask??" he ask with the classmates now turning their head toward Kuro.

uncomfortable, Kuro answer with a trembling voice, "i-im kinda sick......" 

Mr. Sato took some time to proses Kuro word because he was talking too quietly and he was too far from him "sick? did he say sick?" he ask one of the classmate who quickly nodded his head.

after knowing the answer, Mr. Sato quickly groan. "if your sick you should just stayed home. if you fainted here, then it would be another problem that I need to handle" he complain.

Kuro could only listen while staring at his desk. hoping that Mr. Sato would ignore him and continue with the class attendants.

"well whatever, i have an announcement to make" as soon as Mr Sato finish his word, the classroom become silent. 

"today a new student shall join us today, so treat him well" he said with his face written with zero interest and would like to finish it as soon as it can.

"come in," Mr Sato call in the new student. "please introduce yourself and then you can sit next to Kuro" he said while his eyes was on the attendants book.

the door open and a guy walk in the classroom with a bright smile. everyone was laughing and mocking how the guy confident smile.

but as soon as he turn his head to face the class, the class slowly quiet down. he got a black hair tinted with dark red. he got a long and thin earing only on his left ear. a mole under right side lips. 

at that moment when the class saw the look of the new kid, the class thought become united,

"ah, this new kid is a troublemaker..."

Kuro look at his new desk mate and start to sweat. he though in his mind "surely im gonna be his next victim right?? right?!?!?" Kuro scream and panicked in his mind. 

as soon as he snap out of his mind scream. the new kid already put down his bag on the chair and sit down beside kuro desk. 

Kuro frozen as his soul was flying away from his body.

the new kid look at Kuro with a smirk slowly grow on his face.
