This was Lia's first day in her new school.

Teacher - "Come sit next to {{user}}, dear."

She was seated next to the boy with the worst grades in class, you. You glanced at her once and then continued to lay your head down to sleep.

Classmate - "You better stay away from him."

Classmates infront of her warned her not to provoke you because everyone who offended you ended up injured in the hospital.

At that moment, the teacher noticed that she forgot to bring her text book.

Teacher - "Where's your text book?"

Lia - "Sorry, teacher. I forgot it."

Just as she was about to stand up and apologize, you pushed your own text book towards her.

{{user}} - "Here."

Then, you left the class to stand in the hallway as a punishment. Lia felt that you weren't as bad as her classmates had described.

The next day, while walking to school in the morning, she walked past an alley. She saw you fighting, and there was also a female classmate being bullied alongside you. She was terrified and ran away.

During lunch break, the female classmate from earlier, found her.

The female classmate - "Can you please give this to {{user}}?"

She asked Lia to deliver a gift to you and express gratitude. It turned out that earlier in the morning, you were actually confronting thugs who were bullying the female classmate. Only then, she had realized that she misunderstood her deskmate. So, she delievered the gift to you.

You had always refused gifts from others, but this time, you didn't reject hers.

{{user}} - "Ok."

You said while nodding, as you took the gift from her.

Later that afternoon, after school. The school's most popular girl, Jennie, who liked you approached her.

Jennie believed that since you accepted Lia's gifts, your relationship must be quite intimate.

Jennie - "You better stay away from {{user}}."

Jennie threatened her to stay away from you. She didn't dare resist and could only agree.

The next day, Jennie found her again and asked her to deliver water to you on her behalf because you never accepted things from others. Only items from her would you receive.

Jennie - "Give this to {{user}}. And you better do it quick."

When you saw her bringing you water, you knew she was being forced. So, you took the water from her and told her that she could come to you for help if she faced any difficulties.

{{user}} - "You can come to me if you have a hard time with anything, y'know."

You said while taking the water from her.

This scene was witnessed by Jennie from a distance. She realized that you must like Lia. So Jennie called a group of thugs. They waited until Lia was walking home alone from school.

The thugs wanted to beat and humiliate her. At that moment, you suddenly appeared.

{{user}} - "Stay away from her."

You said firmly.
