Yibo was strolling through his collage corridors, ignoring every glance he got, Or he was trying actually.

He couldn't believe his current state he was in all because of a stupid video. He had already heard few of the rumours circling him and ladies and gentleman he is happy to announce that he was the bad guy in every single one of them while Zhan was victimised.

It's fine, he thought because at least it won't make Zhan stop teaching him. Even though by now Yibo was utterly confused between if he was actually more curious about his dreams or did he enjoy the older's company too much to give up on it.

Suddenly a guy bumped on his shoulder making him almost loose his balance and kiss the floor.
His lecture hall seemed awfully a lot like a concert hall. Why? Yibo was the performer who had every criticising gaze of people upon him. He was already trying to picture his remaining two years in this collage with this same treatment. Would I be used to it by then?

Zhan as usual made his entrance with his attracting visuals. He removed his black overcoat revealing his white tucked shirt with hands rolled to his elbow, and his black pants. Of course it looked amazingly good on Zhan as per Yibo's opinion.

The time went passed without any attention from Zhan to Yibo but at the last minute before the lecture was over Zhan said,
"I'm supposed to choose an assistant from each of the classes I'm doing. So, Yibo stay after class is ended." And with that Yibo's head lifted up with pure astonishment. So as well the rest of the class. It was so sudden that Zhan didn't leave a single second for other students to murmur again and continued his lecture like he didn't say anything before. After the students were dismissed, without paying any attention to any whispers Yibo went towards Zhan with smile so wide that he forgot he was supposed to like he didn't know Zhan at outside.

Zhan waited till everyone left the place and it was vacant to open his mouth.
"Since you are my assistant, you are supposed to help me in my next class. So take that pile of books and follow me." He signaled the said books and without waiting for any reply started walking away. Yibo quickly did what he was told and followed the older.

Sounds of loud chattering was audible even from out of the room when they were near the designated place. Yibo realised it was a bl ass with seniors. When they entered a bunch of girls older than Yibo swarmed around Zhan, pushing the poor lad almost making the pile of books fall out of his grip.

Before that could happen again he placed the books on the table which was supposed to be used by lecturers and stood back watching the scene of Zhan smiling and talking with girls circling him.

"Zhan sir! You are smiling so much today. What's the reason?" A one asked as Zhan's smile got wider.
Yibo tsked and rolled his eyes when about her started talking.
"Maybe he got a good message from his to be girlfriend." That's all it took for all the girls to start squealing like there's no tomorrow.

If someone said Yibo wasn't shocked to hear that, that person is entirely wrong because he felt like he was hit by an enormous truck. He felt a sensation of disappointment and anger building up inside him. Anger so deep that he couldn't keep his hands straight and had them turn into fists. His knuckles were white due his force.

"Did you finally accept our professor Fei?" Another asked making Yibo's blood boil even more. Even though he was excited before to follow his Zhan Ge even after the lectures, now all he wanted was to leave here and punch something hard. He almost felt like his anger was so strong that it didn't built overnight within him.

"Okay okay now I brought your assignments marked, let's see them shall we?" Without replying to the question he was directed he looked at Yibo expecting him to distribute them. Yibo with a glare took the assignments and did as he was told all throughout the time with a glare etched on his face.
When it was the turn to give the assignments to that two girls who asked the questions form Zhan, Yibo deliberately let go of them to fall on the floor and made them pick them up by themselves.

Zhan on the other hand was observing Yibo all this time and was trying his best to control his laugh. He also deliberately acted friendly with his students seeing the angry face of Yibo who stood besides him.

It was all going as he wanted until the lecture was over. He was now sure Yibo must be fed up by his actions and would stop following him from now on. But he wasn't feeling any good when he saw a new face calling out on Yibo after they left the building, a face that made his inside churn from displeasure he wasn't even sure why.

<~>

"You actually came.."
A man with a bright smile said with surprise lacing in his voice as he saw a young man walking towards him.

"Why, Were you having doubts about my loyalty to a friend?" The said person took a seat next to the other as they both stared at autumn leaves falling off from the trees.

"I won't comment on that. But what made you so busy these days that you didn't got even time to ring me up." The man who had a bright smile, complained.

"Oh did you finally find that person in your dreams?" The same person continued with his guesswork as the other replied with silence.

"Guess I'm correct." He smiled again despite the other's silence because he was used to fewer words that are spoken by the other.

"It's starting to bother me now. I see them eve single night. I shouldn't have transferred here to have tranquility on my last days because the exact opposite is what's happening now." The silenced person spoke finally with a sigh.

"I think it was fate that you meet him here. After listening to bits and pieces of your dreams, I conclude that you and he are meant to meet each other in this life as well."

Young man stared at his friend who looked ahead at the park which looked almost like it was painted with orange hue. He also agreed to his friends words even though he hated to admit.

"I won't let it be like before though." He muttered as the other eyed him suspiciously.
"What are you going to do?"
"I will take every action and go far on such lengths to make things change the way I want it."
