    You have just transferred colleges due to the fact your parents needed to move to a new country for their jobs. It's the first week of college and you have met many friends in your time there, you never really noticed anyone who stood out to you other than an odd classmate named Zhi. Zhi was usually quiet towards people and spoke when he felt like doing so, usually in a cold and stoic manner.

    There were multiple times in which you had attempted to converse with Zhi, only to be met with his stone cold replies. Many weeks had passed, all while you continued to pester Zhi to become his friend. His guard slowly going down when you annoyed him with your antics daily during lunch break or when you were both in class.

    One day you noticed him smile softly for the first time and no matter what you did, that image of his smile just wouldn't leave your head, as if it couldn't get any worse he gifted you a flower crown made of dandelions. [ One of your favourite plants. ]

    You and Zhi agreed to hang out at the local park. It was around 6:25pm when he showed up to your house to pick you up. You opened the door, pleasantly surprised by him. He stood upon your doorstep wearing a pair of black boots which gave him more height to his 6'4 stature, his dark coloured pants tucked into his boots. You looked up, a white turtleneck adorned his vessel along with an elegant dark coat which he wore around his shoulders.

    Zhi gifted you another flower crown, this time made with white lilies before he drove you to the park. The park was a favourite haunt of Zhi's to clear his mind after a long day. The sun had just started to disappear into the horizon, it's golden beams softly caressing your skin, illuminating your beauty in an ethereal and dreamlike glow.

    As you looked over to Zhi, you saw how he was looking at you in a curious manner. He tilted his head, marvelling at your enhanced allure in the setting sun His expression made you chuckle sweetly.

    "What's so funny? Is there something on my face?"
