Elsa walked down the hallway. She knew and always the eyes that glaring at her. Their whisper around her. She hugged her books tightly and walked faster. She cursed at herself. Why did she need to wake up late on a school day. She always woke up earlier so she could reach her class earlier than everyone. To avoid those disgusted look that everyone had.
"It was she, right?"
"Yes, it was she."
"What a monster! Why do she even attend this college. Someone like her should know her place."
"Shhh! She will hear you."
"Oh… that was scary. I don't want to be freeze."
They laughed.
Elsa shrugged. Trying to hide in her piece of cloth. She could felt rage in her heart but more than that she could heard fear resounding in her.
'Elsa!' Elsa tried to call herself.
'Remember! Conceal, don't feel. Conceal, don't feel.'
Elsa exhaled her breath slowly. Trying to take control of her feeling and she did it. More than that, she finally arrived in her classroom. As fast as she could, Elsa headed to her usual seat. The very back and beside the window of classroom's seat.
Elsa stopped. She looked at her usual seat and it was occupied by a male. 'Damn! Who is he? Why did he sat there? Wasn't everyone know that was MY seat?"
She looked around. She had no choice but to sit beside him. She do not want to sit at the front. She folded her arm on table and immediate dived her face into them as she noticed that few of students looking at her.
'But seriously, who is he?' she asked herself.
She tried to peek at his face but the only thing she could see was the back of his head lying resting on his folded arm just like Elsa. His hair. It was white. Almost white as snowflakes. He shrudded. Elsa just realized that he was sleeping. His hair was so beautiful. It reminded her of him. The one she met on last night.
Elsa reached out her hand unconsciously. She was trying to touch his hair. Where is he? Who is he? Maybe… this man could be the same guy she met?
'I miss him.' Elsa told herself. Her heart felt hurt.
He suddenly aroused. Elsa was jolted and immediately pulled back her hand and hide her face.
'Wahhhh~ That was embarrassing.' Her face felt hot.
Suddenly, she felt a stare on her. She always received stare from everyone but this one felt different. Rather than contained with hatred, it felt warm and cold at the same time. It made her heart went crazy but Elsa admitted, she kind of enjoying this feeling.
Elsa sat her back straight. She turned her head to face him and she was stunned.
'Shoot. He's handsome!' Her heart was screaming inside but her face remained same.
Unlike usual, she looked at him despite knowing and feeling the stares from her classmates. She even met his eyes and for some reason she felt they were connected.
'What?' Elsa tried to test if her feeling was right. If they were really connected.
She then saw his lips curved up at little. She felt dumbfounded.
'What is that? What is he trying to mean by curving up that lips? Is it to mock me? Or it is a smile? If it is a smile, what for? We aren't exactly 'connnected', right? Though he was cute doing that.'
She blinked her eyes a few times before turning her head to the front. Still, she knew her heart was beating crazily for his maybe-a-smile.
