Chapter 14

“CHERYLL! Borrow your workbook. I just compare my answer with your answer. ”

If only it looked deadly, Jeric, one of his remaining friends, must have been shocked in front of Cheryll. This is his only friend besides Yuri. He could not have imagined that someone like him who was happy-go-lucky had become his friend. After all, it is also good because it is foolish and naughty.

He became his friend when he became a group member in one of their group activities. He saw that behind its stupidity, he was smart and studying.

His narrowed eyes narrowed even more as he laughed at her. This is just one of the few people who is not afraid of being bullied. So even though he was very angry with his older brother, he could not break their friendship.

Yes, this is Jerome's brother. Aside from the looks, it also seems to have gotten the prank of his older brother. But Jeric, she could tolerate while Jerome on the other hand…

You’re thinking about him again.

"It's in my bag." he just said and turned the laptop again.

“Where? I can’t seem to find it, Cher. ”

He let out a disgusted sigh. "I know you're thin, Jeric, but sometimes, you also use your narrow eyes to search, huh?" he said and pulled the bag from it.

And being the thick-skulled guy that he was, he just grinned at her.

He frowned when he noticed that his workbook was not there. He was confused. That can't be missed because that is one of their requirements in their next subject. If he does not pass that, his grades will be ruined in the final term!

He did not bother to search the bag as his mind was flying everywhere he went. He did not move anything in his bag when he returned home last night. No one also borrowed his belongings from him.

He tried to remember the places he went to.

Classroom, canteen, rest room, garden, library…

“I left my workbook at the library yesterday! Shit! ” he cried. I just hope the librarian keeps his workbook.

"Let's go, I'll go with you."

He turned to Jeric. “No. Can you see the Green Park? Maybe I was left there, I just forgot. Text me if you find it, okay? ”

He did not wait for the friend to answer and took big steps to go to the library. He was depressed when the librarian said he had not found a workbook the other day.

He was already out of the library when he collided with a firm chest. He only touched the figure for a moment but its scent seemed to stick to his sense of smell. It was a mixture of mint and a pinch of leather. He also seemed to feel horrible at the simple collision of their bodies.

“I’m sorry — you? You know, you are really unlucky, eh! ” she could not help but pile on the man the annoyance she felt for losing her workbook.

An innocent smile had appeared on Jerome’s face but she could not be fooled otherwise. “What did I do? I did not run into you, you ran into me. Maybe you want to feel my body against yours? ”

Her teeth gnashed at her. He is sopla again. He was about to open his mouth when he put his hand on her mouth.

“Anyway, I have a favor to ask. You have no choice but to agree because I have something I know is important to you. ”

He rested loosely when from his bagpack he released his workbook. Why did she forget that yesterday she left the man in the library?

Maybe because you’re trying very much to forget his smile.

He was about to reach for the workbook when Jerome picked it up. Because she was smaller than the man, she did nothing but fold her arms.

"Give me that."

"On one condition."

He was confident in its grin. "What is that?"

"Be my girlfriend."

“In your face! I don't like you, no! ”

"I don't like you either, Cher."

Why did someone seem to step on his heart when he heard what he said? Does it mean she’s disappointed to know that he doesn’t like her? Why, oh, why?
