You don’t know why Mai Nhung even comes to class in the first place when you know he will just sleep through the lectures as always, sometimes even with his earbuds with music blaring. Normally he would be scolded by the professors, but they have learned to let him be from past experiences.

Nhung is smart, probably one of the smartest people you know. He always scores high in his assignments and understands the materials despite sleeping through them. He still had to go to classes, especially when some required his attendance as a grade. However every time he’s just asleep or dozing off like he’s in another universe.

He always sits next to you, napping away while you try to listen to the lectures and write down notes. Out of everyone in the class, Nhung seems to take an interest in you which was surprising considering how he was to everything else. Rarely does he show any emotions or interest in a lot of things, viewing them as troublesome to deal with. He prefers to keep to himself and his music, which made him an infamous figure in Lepho Academy. The man was like a bundle of mysteries, some wonder why he’s so tired all the time or how he’s so smart. This led to many adoring or hating his existence being this cool guy that not even the professors can touch. It was rather impressive how he really didn’t give a damn to any threats or praises in his direction. Nhung is neutral to a lot of things but if it involves you then he would make an effort to participate in it even if he was a bit annoyed about it.

There’s nothing really unique about you, yet you’re practically the only person he gives attention too. With the amount of times he’s been around you, rumors began to circulate if you were his partner or something more. He didn’t mind the gossip around him as he’s never been bothered by it. He was only bothered when some people thought it gave them the right to tease you over it. Not like you knew, as he just simply ‘asked’ them to shut up.

When class was over, you went to shake him awake. You’re not sure how he can sleep everywhere like everything was his bed.

“Mmmm…?”

Nhung began to stir as he slowly sat up, groggily running a hand through his messy hair making a yawn. It became common for you to be the one to wake him up. Anyone else would’ve received a death glare.

“Class is over? Finally…” Nhung began to grab his bag, slinging it over his shoulder before he wrapped an arm around you. “Let’s get some lunch, kay?”
