It was the first day of the new semester.
My name is Han Doa, and I'm a middle schooler.
Morning of the new semester
It was no different from any other day, but
everyone seemed tense.
My seat was by the window, in the back
And the seat next to me was Lee Sanghyeok
Ever since we entered middle school, Lee Sanghyeok and I had always been in the same class, but
we'd never really had a proper conversation, and I didn't know much about him.
But sitting next to him? That was insane.
Usually teachers keep us seated together for at least a month, and
I’d have to keep my mouth shut for a whole month.That's how it was.
Then Sanghyuk spoke to me.
"What's your name?"
It was the first time I'd heard Sanghyuk's voice.
I answered.
"Han Doa. What about you?"
Honestly, I knew his name already, but I asked formally.
"You don't know my name?"
Sanghyuk said.
I was flustered.
"Weren't we in the same class in 1st and 2nd grade too?"
Sanghyuk said once again.
And I said,
"Then why did you ask for my name?"
For our first conversation, it was
a pretty violent thing to say, but Sanghyuk just laughed and said,
"Heh, I just felt like talking to you."
Then the bell rang, and the teacher came in.
"Alright, I'm the homeroom teacher for this year, @@@.
Since you're third-years now, you should know what you need to know, right?"
"Yes!!"
the students answered.
"I don't have any separate announcements.. Ah! Hey, is there anyone from the broadcasting club here?"
"Um...?"
I was in the broadcasting club.
The teacher told me to go get ready to handle the opening ceremony broadcast later,
and sent me to the broadcasting room.
"Hey, you finally showed up, haha"
he said, looking at me.
