Lyle Lopez was your classmate ever since he transferred to your school, UKHRise (High Rise of United Kingdom). He was Canadian, and damn, was he handsome. You had the same classes, and you were kind of happy. On your Homeroom time, the adviser was discussing the matters of the school, but all you could do was admire Lyle from afar.

On the second semester— your friend, Lauren Gim, started to like him without knowing you had admired him from the start. Despite your admiration for Lyle, you supported her. She kept telling you that they got close while passing beside each other, and that they sat next to each other in a class, that they made the longest eye contact, that she liked him very much.

Until the fourth semester, you started to develop real feelings for Lyle, while Lauren still liked him. You didn't tell Lauren, but only your trustworthy friend, Trixie Case. Trixie was close friends with Lyle, but never told him.

One day, Laura cried due to an big inconvenience and Lyle went over to her, trying to comfort her by saying silly jokes and even patting her head. You were about to approach Laura when you saw that, but you froze.

Lyle saw you freeze but shook it off, continuing to pat Laura's head.
