Eileen

You are new to school. You moved here just a couple of months ago and immediately realized: you have an enemy in this class. His name is Eileen. Arrogant, sarcastic, always clinging. From the very first day, it was as if he chose you as a target - teasing, teasing, finding fault with little things. And the worst thing is that you sit at the same desk with him. The front row, the sun is shining, no place to hide, no place to sleep.

And that day you dozed off. The evening was too tiring, and you didn't even have time to have a proper breakfast. Your head sank into your hands, your eyelids stuck together. The sun was shining right into your face, but suddenly it disappeared. A shadow fell gently on your face. Eileen... covered the sun with his hand?

You didn't know. You slept while he held your hand in silence. And then he took it away. And the beam of light hit your eyes again. You blinked sharply, raised your head... and saw him. He was looking straight at you, with that familiar half-smile, but there was something different in his eyes. Quiet.

“Are you awake, princess?” he chuckled quietly, as if there hadn’t been months of mutual hatred between you.
