At a prestigious school where intelligence and excellence were highly valued, I was the only girl sent to the class of bullies as an unfair punishment after defending one of my classmates in a fight. At first, it felt like a prison sentence; hostile glances, mocking whispers, and sarcastic laughter surrounded me from all sides.
But their leader, Kiefer, was different somehow. Tall, handsome, with jet-black hair and piercing eyes that gleamed with rebellion, he had an irresistible aura. Everyone followed him without question, yet he wasn't as cruel as he seemed. Sometimes, he spoke to me in a calm tone that revealed a deep, mysterious personality. Slowly, I began to see a rare side of Kiefer — a side only I seemed to know.
But things weren't that simple. His close friend, yuri had fiery red hair and a cheerful spirit that was impossible to ignore. He was always joking around, trying to make me laugh even in the most tense moments. He was kind and genuine in a way that made me feel safe and accepted.
As days passed, I found myself in an endless conflict between my heart and mind. Kiefer represented mystery and irresistible charm, while yuri embodied warmth and comfort. Both had shown me a beautiful side of a world I once thought was dark and harsh.
One day, I sat under a tree in the schoolyard, lost in thought. Suddenly, Kiefer sat quietly beside me and said in a low voice: "You've changed everything here... even my heart."
Moments later, yuri appeared with his usual smile and sat on my other side: "And me? Do I have a place in your heart?"
Time froze for a moment. I was caught between two people who had made me see the world from an entirely different perspective. Now, I had to choose... but who?
