Hugo rushed into the classroom. He should have been in class ten minutes ago. But, because many ask for photos, inevitably he serves him.
Hugo knocked on the door, all eyes on him. He smiled awkwardly at an old man who was leading in front.
"Isn't he Hugo Erhard?"
"I saw it in a magazine."
"Well, I can't believe I'm in a class with a famous model."
The whispers began to sound. Hugo was still frozen staring at the lecturer in front of him.
The lecturer glanced at the watch in his hand. "Just the first day, you're eleven minutes late. I forgive you today. But again late, don't try to get in." The old man let Hugo in.
"Thank you, sir." Hugo walked towards the row of benches that had been filled by several people. Then his eyes stopped on a woman who was also staring at him gapingly.
"Hey, you're here too." Whisper Hugo and sit next to him.
The lecturer starts his discussion again, he introduces what subjects he will bring.
"Where's Eline?" Hugo looked around, but there were no twin girls in the room.
"Silence, I'm focused." Erine replied while looking ahead.

On the first day of college, it seemed like everything was relaxing. There is no learning, only introductions between students and lecturers.
Richi also, a lot of men who reached out to get acquainted from the class, as well as seniors who feel lucky with the class, because there are beautiful women in their class.
Actually, Richi's not the only girl in the class. There are two more. But they seemed to drown because the man there just looked at Richi.
"You were forced to come in here, huh?" A man asks Richi who walks out of class, followed by a few who still want to get to know Richi.
"No. It's my will." The girl answered with a sweet smile.
"Seriously? You're not afraid of your skin breaking down or sweating? It's a sport, you know." Ask the others.
"ahahaha. No."
"I thought you were the wrong major. You should be in the fashion department."
"Haha, no. I don't like fashion." Richi replied with a small laugh.
"What school are you from?"
"Oberons."
"Ooo." Simultaneously they all.
"I heard Oberon is a pretty girl's paradise." Knock the other one.
"Do you have a boyfriend?"
"ahahaha. Do you think I have?" Richi throws a question back.
"I don't think so."
"Richi, if you're having trouble, just tell me."
"really. We'll help you."
"Gee. Haha. Thank you, a lot." Richi chatted while walking with some other students. Of course the incident was captured by two students who were sitting not far from them.
The two students are from the same class as Richi. But they don't seem to like it, because in their eyes, Richi just dress up and go to gym class just to hook men.
"You see, such a gentile woman is always glorified."
"Does she think it's a fashion major? Look, wear a miniskirt and high heels to gym class."
The woman smiled slanted. "Let's bet, I'm sure he only lasted a month."
"One month is too long. One week."
They both laughed together. For them, women like Richi are just about to attract attention, not really learn.
"I bet he'll hold out until the end."
Hearing that, the two women looked back. There was a man sitting not far from his seat.
"Haaii, you're a fan too?" The girl's lips.
"Why don't you join the horde of men?" Ask the others.
The man laughed softly. "I just don't like it when you underestimate someone."
"Underestimated? Hey, I've seen women like her repeatedly. Pretend to participate in sports just to hook his bluff. Then after the goal was obtained." the woman wiggled her five fingers near the neck. "He's out!" Reciprocity.
"Well, look at it later." Said another woman. "Are you a freshman too? I'm Sarah." The short-haired woman reached out her hand.
"Evans." He welcomed the woman's hand.
"And this is Joy." Sarah introduced Joy. The woman with shorter hair and looking like a man reached out.
"You've been friends a long time?" Ask Evan.
"Oh, no. We just met here."
"You should add one more. That woman." Evan pointed at Richi who had reached his car and waved at the crowd of men who had been following him since.
"Ah, what for? He'll be gone soon." Sarah's words were greeted with Joy's laughter.
"Well, fine then. See you tomorrow." Evan passes, while Joy nudges Sarah's arm still staring at Evan's departure.
"God, you like it, don't you?"
"Yaaa, handsome too." The answer then giggled with Joy.
...🦋...
"Yeahh." Richi sighed. He rested his body on the back of the car seat. The first day was exhausting. Especially the men just keep following him.
Richi grabbed his phone. A lot of calls and messages from Hugo that he ignored. A slanted smile appeared at the corner of his lips. Surely Hugo would be angry, because he had dared not keep his promise on the first day of college.
Richi runs the car. He wanted to go to Clair's cafe before it was too late and scorching. Today, he will be training with the Fox team because Valiant has been having some problems lately. One of them, many groups who claim to be them, to commit crimes everywhere. Exactly what happened to Stripe. Moreover, some claim to be Keen and Darrel. I don't know who that is.
But when the car is at medium speed, and Richi is half daydreaming, he has to step on the brakes deep enough because a child suddenly runs into the middle of the road.
He gasps. Holding a beating heart as he almost hit a boy who fell in front of his car.
As he was about to get out, a person with a hoodie scuff on his head, as well as a black mask raised the child violently. At first glance Richi could see the boy's face with injuries in several parts. Of course it gets Richie out of his car.
However, that person quickly pulled the child to come with him. Richi just kept quiet, he stared at the departure of the frightened-looking child. He wanted to help, but, he couldn't do anything either. Isn't that his parents? But, if it was his parents, why would the child's face be frightened and like a small rebel not want to come with that person?
Without Richi noticing, Hugo got off his bike. With an exasperated face the man stood in front of Richi.
"Where have you been??"
Richi turned his gaze toward Hugo for a moment, then looked again at the direction where the boy had disappeared into an alley.
"Hey, what's up?" Hugo asked who saw the change in Richi's face. He looked in the direction where Richi was looking, but there was nothing there.
"Come, you should be punished for upsetting me!" Hugo turns Richi in and sits in the passenger seat, while he gets behind the wheel and runs the car, leaving his motorbike still parked there.
