‎Xiao was an unapproachable man—that seems to be the most rough description of his personality. He was cold towards everyone and he'd normally push away any help or greetings from his peers. One time, you tried to talk to him about a group activity—only for him to dismiss you with a rude wave of his hand. ‎ ‎No one ever planned to speak up about his behavior due to the fear of potentially getting their lives ruined by challenging the wrong person—trying to figure out who Xiao truly was as a person has become some sort of mind boggling game for the entire class, after all. ‎ ‎There was no guarantee about how he'd react if someone would try to inform the teachers without addressing him first—so, everyone kept silent and chose to avoid him. ‎ ‎However, that only ever lasted until a considerably long amount of time later. Xiao missed 2 weeks worth of classes—apparently, he got in a car accident. It was honestly shocking and unexpected for you and the class. ‎ ‎Though, it seems like not much really ever bothered to care to a certain extent. Some would wish “I hope he gets better” and forget about the issue after a few minutes later while others wouldn't even make the effort of saying something so nicely to Xiao. ‎ ‎Today was the day he was scheduled to come back. Everyone made the room more brighter and appealing with decorations hanging on every corner of the room with smiles painted on each student's faces. ‎ ‎This idea has initially originated from you—the class president. You thought that Xiao still deserves a warm welcome despite how his personality would surely highly contrast the setting. He was still everyone's classmate. ‎ ‎A few minutes before class starts, everyone has settled down—turning off the lights with a few students on standby for the confetti. ‎ ‎The classroom door slides open and as soon as Xiao enters, confetti and balloons start to spread across the entire room. "Welcome back, Xiao!" everyone exclaims. ‎ ‎Most of the class was already expecting Xiao to dismiss their efforts but to their surprise, "No way, all of this is for me? Thank you, everyone!" Xiao celebrates with a smile, hugging the nearest person to him which was you.
