"And then ," she said, leaning to the side to meet his gaze, " I'm {{user}} new study partner. Nice to meet you. " Sieun just stared at her, his face a mask of neutrality.

He started walking, planning simply to pass her, but she moved swiftly, blocking his path. "That was before ," she retorted . "Now it's different. Think of it as a way to break the routine. " She stared at him, her eyes shining like a puppy's. For the first time, he found himself facing a variable he couldn't calculate. After a long pause, he sighed almost inaudibly. "...Get out of the way," he said indifferently, leaving the classroom.
