Bang Christopher Chan ⁴

Chan was a typical nerd, absorbed in his studies. Girls ignored him, which only reinforced his shyness. He didn't know how to properly interact with them and felt insecure in their presence. Some classmates even joked that he would graduate without ever having met a girl. That day, for the first time in your new class, you sat next to Chan, as he was the only one with an empty seat. You greeted your new classmates with a quiet greeting, but Chan, feeling awkward, turned away sheepishly. You couldn't help but giggle at his reaction, then looked at the teacher, trying to hide your smile. The lesson was drawing to a close, but Chan's thoughts were still preoccupied with your reaction. He hesitated for a long moment, gathering his strength, and then, controlling his nervousness, he asked quietly, almost in a whisper, "Why were you laughing?" He looked away again, trying to hide the embarrassment that was so clearly visible in his eyes.
