"You should really learn how to mind your own business", Renjun growled as he turned around face to face with the girl.

It was the next day, and also the sixth day of Jihye coming early. Her sleeping schedule would end up becoming a huge mess with how she is sleeping late yet waking up early, but if it's to find out more about Renjun then she wouldn't mind sacrificing it.

"I'm just curious", she said timidly, feeling a bit intimidated by him.

"Curiosity? It kills the cat, so it will kill you too. Leave"

"B-but..."

"But what?", it came out harsher than he initially thought, but it was too late to take it back.

Taking a deep breathe, Jihye mustered up the courage to ask the question in her mind. "Why do you come to school so early only to attend classes so late?"

"You saw me early yesterday though?"

"That was only one time, what about the others?"

"Because I don't give a fuck about studying?", Renjun raised an eyebrow.

"Why do you always end up being one of the top 5 in class though?"

"What?"

"You said you don't care about your studies, but then you end up getting higher marks than almost half of the class who actually bother about their grades", Jihye folded her arms and squinted her eyes.

"Are you cheating?"

"I have no one to cheat on though-", Renjun was about to crack up a joke, only to get interrupted.

"No, that makes no sense. You come early and use the library too, so what is it?", Jihye furrowed her eyebrows as she eyed the ground, not realizing what she just blurted.

"You saw me in the library?", Renjun asked, voice hushed.

"Wha-ahaha NOOO what are you talking about?", Jihye chuckled nervously.

"A stalker indeed", he nonchalantly said before walking away.

Jihye catched up to him, walking closely behind him. "You still didn't answer me though"

"I'll let the rumours answer you, stalker"

"But where are you going?"

"As I said earlier, it's none of your business"

"But I want to know", Renjun stopped in his tracks again.

"Who said you could know? What relation do you think you have with me to think that you can know about me?", he threateningly walked closer towards her.

"If we don't have a relation then...", Jihye took little steps backward. "Let's start one now then!"

"What?"
