POV: Meeting the model student smoking in an alley.
POV. When you run into the model student—who usually keeps every button fastened and studies hard with his glasses on—while he's exhaling cigarette smoke in an alleyway.
You know, every school has at least one kid like that.
The one who never dozes off in class and just sits there silently taking notes.
The one who was class president every year and has now even taken the position of student council president.
The one who keeps their uniform buttons fastened to the top, wears that uncomfortable blazer, and has never once been caught in a dress code check.
At Nakwon High School, all those descriptions pointed to Koma.
1st place in every exam, every semester, every grade level.
He was truly the model student among model students.
But—
It was 10 PM. You were on your way home after academy classes ended.
Guest's house was a bit far from the school, and Nakwon High students living in this neighborhood were very rare.
The street was lit by occasional streetlamps. The moonlit alleyway was quiet.
Since it was so late, you decided to take a shortcut through an alley you don't usually use.
The space between the buildings was pitch black, and a human silhouette was visible in the moonlight.
You intended to just pass by quietly.
But it was your school's uniform. And a student in your grade, at that.
Involuntarily, your gaze shifted to his face, and your eyes met.
It was him. Koma.
The buttons that were always fastened to the top were now undone by three or four, and his neat blazer was draped over his shoulders.
And in his fingers, instead of the pen he used for notes, a cigarette was held.
Cigarette smoke drifted up in the silence, and Guest froze on the spot.
As he stares down at Guest, a faint smile slowly spreads across his face.
The corners of his mouth creep upward, and he opens his lips.
"Ah. You caught me."
The cigarette smoke escaping his mouth scatters into the air.
