{Sarawat's Perspective}

He's so...memerizing that I was on the verge of kissing him when my phone rang, breaking the moment. I picked it up because I recognized it as Man's. "Hello?"

"I found him!" he yelled in my ear, a little agitated. Tine was about to flee when I grabbed him by the waist and completely forgot about the phone call.

"Don't think you're going to get away from me." I hung up the phone, whispering in his ear. I couldn't stop the feeling that grew within me as I looked at him. His adorable features popped out from every angle, and his plump lips were soft and round and...kissable. Maybe that's why I had that reaction in the bathroom yesterday.

I looked at him, his eyes full of potential and fear. "P-Please let me go," he begged, his eyes welling up with tears, and I couldn't help but feel a stab of pain in my chest as he looked at me like that.

"Don't cry, baby," I said as I clutched him tightly in my arms, hearing him sniffle and gasp in my shoulder. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you cry," I said quietly in his ear.

What's the matter with me?
Why am I behaving this way towards someone I barely know? He just makes me feel whole...

•Time Skip•

After the whole him, crying down thing, we decided to just go with it and try to get along. I didn't want him to look at me the way everyone else did. Fear
Is it true that I'm that intimidating?

"S-Sarawat?" Tine jolted me out of my reverie by waving his hand across my face. I growled and glared at him, causing him to flinch. I immediately felt bad for looking away, as people were whispering and staring around us.

I mean, I'm used to it, but Tine seemed a little uneasy.

"Poor boy, he must be afraid of him," I overheard someone say, causing me to slam my hands on the table. Everyone screamed and ran out of the room.

"I'm sorry about that, what are you saying?" I asked as I sat back down. He paused for a moment before returning to the papers in front of him.

"I was thinking that maybe we could do something outside of...the school yard," he explained. I smiled at him, turning his face bright red. Because of the strange feeling in my chest, I nodded but didn't really respond. "RING RING" my phone rang, and I hung up on him, probably because he was irritated.

"I've got to go see you later," I said to Tine, nodding. 'Hell-o,' I said as I walked away from the phone."
"WHERE HAVE YOU GONE?!?" Man's yelling began to cut me off. "I'm in the east wing where-'

'beEp" I couldn't finish because he rudely hung up on me.

'BANG BANG BANG'  a loud but multiple footsteps heard. When I turned to face the sound, I saw the gang charging at me, furious.

'SARAWAT!" Earn yelled loudly, irritating me with her'mother' tone.

"What are you guys mad for?" said Phukong, crossing his arms. I asked a few questions as I looked around, because they had scared everyone away.

"WELL, I AND SHE ARE PARTNERS!" Earn and Noonmin said the same thing while pointing at each other.

"So you two are disqualified?" I laughed, realizing what they meant. I mused, causing Man to laugh, but he quickly vanished as he turned back towards me

"Where have you been all this time, and why did you hang up on me earlier?" All eyes were on me, said the man.

"Of course, I was hanging out with Tine!"
"Besides, what did you want to tell me?" I replied, rubbing the back of my neck. I asked, causing him to grin from ear to ear.

"Since Noonmin and Earn are out, it's just you, me, and Phukong in the challenge," he grinned.

"Wait, did you cheat?" the girls asked as they walked away. Looking at Man, Phukong said. "You used the system to look for who it was, didn't you?" he said, Man clearly taken aback. I  looked while glaring.

."..Fine fine, yes, I want to win because it's MY island anyway," the man whined.

Phukong sighed and rolled his eyes. "Anyway, now that we've all found our partners, we can really get started," Phukong said.

"Allow the games to begin!" I said, I knew I'd win, I mean, come on, I'm already done. We all stared at each other as we walked away because it was the afternoon and classes were over.

I couldn't help but smile as I thought of Tine; I can't really fall for him; I just have to act as if I do so so that he'll be head over heels in love with me.
