Chapter 1 - when crash turns to love

North and Easter are close friends and both first-year college students living in a boarding house. In North's haste, he accidentally met and bumped into the campus president, Johan, an intelligent, admired, dashing, and handsome man who is desired by many women. But once he was once hurt by his ex-girlfriend, and from then on, he never loved again. But his meeting North will change everything.

Ter: "Hey, wake up! We're going to be late!"

North: "Give me five more minutes..."

NRT: Ter went to North's room and pulled his blanket. North then said...

Ter: "You've been there for five minutes already, get up!"

North: "I'm still sleepy!"

Ter: "It's your fault, you played games all night. Go take a bath so you can get dressed."

North: "Umm..."

NRT: He then entered the bathroom. After a few minutes, he finished bathing and came out.

Ter: "Let's go?"

North: "Umm... we haven't eaten anything yet."

Ter: "Let's just buy something outside."

North: "Okay, but you're paying."

Ter: "Alright."

NRT: They went outside and bought food, then headed straight to school.

Ter: "Are you full?"

North: "Yes, but why do you have so much money now? Did Hill give it to you again?"

Ter: "Umm..."

North: "I knew it. I wish everyone always got something; I never do."

Ter: "Wait, your time will come."

North: "How can you say that?"

Ter: "Just because... yeah, let's go."

North: "Okay, fine."

NRT: They walked until they reached Ter's classroom.

Ter: "Oh, I'll stay here first."

North: "Umm..."

Ter: "Be careful walking, maybe you'll see your 'the one'."

North: "Stop it, I don't have 'the one', remember that."

Ter: "Okay, fine, but I believe you have 'the one'."

POV: North pulled Ter and said...

North: "You're so annoying, I told you I don't have one!"

POV: North continued walking until he reached his classroom. North's classroom is not to far it is on the second floor, while Ter are on the third floor. North went inside, and at that time, the conversation about the new president of the campus was widespread. They said he was handsome, intelligent, and strict, driving everyone crazy, but North didn't care. At that time, he didn't know the new president of the campus and hadn't seen his face yet. Even his friend Ter was anticipating the new president, who is Johan. At that time, the teachers hadn't entered yet because they were giving the students a chance to meet the new president. The cheers of everyone could be heard outside, but North still didn't care and continued studying. Ter went to North in his room and said,

Ter: "North!!"

POV: Ter was out of breath from running to North. North looked at him.

North: "What?"

Ter: "Don't you know there's a new campus president?"

North: "I know, why?"

Ter: "Then what are you waiting for, let's go there quickly!"

North: "I don't want to, I'm just studying here."

Ter: "Just for a while, please!!"

POV: Ter said pleadingly.

North: "Wait, slowly."

NRT: They went to see the said new president, but because of the crowd, North couldn't clearly see the new president's face.

Principal: "Students, listen! Starting today, he is the new president of our campus, it's Mr. Johan!!"

Students: [Shouting]

Principal: "And he will go around to all the classrooms to introduce himself to you."

Students: "Ma'am, when will he be going around the classrooms?"

Principal: "Probably during your free time, and that is Friday. For now, let him rest first and then he'll go around the campus. That's all, students. You may take your break time now."

NRT: All the students were on break time, including Ter and North.

Ter: "He's handsome, isn't he?"

North: "I don't know, I didn't see his face."

Ter: "Why?"

North: "There were so many students, and I'm not that tall."

Ter: "Oh, I see."

North: "Umm... by the way, are you going to buy something?"

Ter: "Umm, why? Are you going to buy it for me?"

North: "I'll pay for it."

Ter: "Let's just go to the canteen, the two of us."

North: "Okay, sure."

NRT: They bought something together. After a few moments, they came out of the canteen. North said...

North: "Let's go to the parking lot."

Ter: "Okay..."

NRT: While walking, Ter said to North,

Ter: "Oh yeah, Hill will be picking me up here later because I can't drive yet. We're going to have dinner together, so I'll just go home early."

North: "Okay, sure."

Ter: "North..."

North: "What?"

Ter: "All the girls are crazy about Johan, aren't they?"

North: "Umm."

North: "Let's go inside the room."

Ter: "Wait..."

North: "Hurry up!"

NRT: They walked, and after a few hours, Ter and North were inside the room. While North was sitting, he could hear his classmates talking.

His classmates: ["Hey, Mr. Johan is so handsome!"] ["I know, right!"] ["He's my crush."] ["He's only mine..."]

NRT: But North didn't pay attention to it and continued what he was doing. It was time to go home. Ter went to North in his room and said goodbye.

Ter: "North, I'm going ahead because Hill is already there. Just wait for me at home."

North: "Okay, take care."

Ter: "Okay, sure."

NRT: Ter left, leaving North. It was around 6 PM, and North was still at school, with no more students around. While North was hurrying, he didn't look around because he was afraid of the dark. North was walking, very scared, because his fear made him run fast, and he didn't see Johan, who was also walking in his direction. He accidentally bumped into Johan, and because of the force of the run, North almost fell to the ground. Because of the force of the collision with Johan, Johan was able to catch him, and for a few seconds, they stared at each other. While Johan was holding North, for a few seconds...

North: "I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry!"

Johan: "It's okay, are you hurt?"

North: "No, I'm not."

POV: While North was talking, there was a sudden noise coming from the rooms. Because of North's fear, he held on tightly to Johan, and for a few seconds, he got closer to Johan and hugged him with concern.

Johan: "Are you okay? If you're okay, I can let you go now."

North: "Let me hug you for a while because I'm still afraid of the dark."

NRT: And he allowed North to hug him. After a few seconds, North let go of the hug from Johan and left without saying goodbye. Johan looked at him and said,

Johan: "Are you really okay?"

NRT: Johan asked with concern, but North didn't say anything and continued walking. And he went home safely. Upon entering his room, he couldn't avoid remembering all the events that happened earlier. He was very ashamed of himself.

North: "What did I do?! I don't even know him, and then...!!!" I'm so ashamed of myself, gosh!!! I need to take a shower now!!"

NRT: And he took a shower. After a few minutes, he finished showering and lay down on his bed. While lying down, he still couldn't get rid of all the events. He was annoyed and angry at himself.

North: "Hsssyutt!! What the heck!! It's okay, I'll apologize to him."

NRY: While North was talking to himself, he didn't know that Ter had already arrived.

Ter: [Knocking on the door] "What happened to you earlier?"

NRT: Ter asked North, and North quickly sat up.

North: "Dude, come here first, I have something to tell you!!"

NRT: Ter approached North.

Ter: "You look like you've seen a ghost. Why? What happened?"

North: "Dude, I bumped into a guy earlier on my way home."

Ter: "Why? What happened? You're just scared of the dark, aren't you?"

North: "It's because it's so creepy there at school. Good thing someone was walking towards me. I bumped into him because I was so scared I didn't see him. I ran so fast because I was so scared, I almost fell. Good thing he caught me."

Ter: "Really?! (Then approaches) And what happened to the guy?! Maybe..."

North: "You're thinking of something else. I don't want to. Just deal with it yourself." (Then lies down)

Ter: "Hey, tell me first, this is just a joke, hey (imitating a Chinese accent), just tell me."

North: "Don't, you're just saying nonsense."

Ter: "Okay, fine, then what happened?"

North: "Well, I apologized to him right away."

Ter: "Then what did he say?"

North: "He said, 'It's okay, are you hurt?'"

Ter: "Really?! He asked you that?!"

North: "Yeah, then while I was talking, there was a sudden noise coming from the rooms...."

Ter: "Then??"

North: "Then, I got startled, and I suddenly got closer to him and held on tightly."

Ter: "Really?! Then what happened?"

North: "Then he hugged me..."

Ter: "Really!???"

North: "Umm..."

Ter: "Do you know him?"

North: "No, that's why I'm ashamed to meet him. I don't even know his name..."

Ter: "Did he say anything else?"

North: "He did."

Ter: "What did he say?"

North: "While I was hugging him, he said, 'Are you okay? If you're okay, I can let you go now.' That's what he said."

Ter: "What did you say?"

North: "I don't know why I said that. I probably said it because I was so scared."

Ter: "Why? What did you say?"

North: "I said, 'Let me hug you for a while because I'm still afraid of the dark.'"

Ter: "REALLY!??!" (Ter said loudly)

North: "Why are you so surprised?"

Ter: "Sorry, I just can't believe it. You really said that??"

North: "Yeah, I'm going to apologize to him on Friday."

Ter: "Well, that's good, but it's amazing that you didn't know he was the one I was talking about."

North: "You're just saying that so you can tease me, aren't you?"

Ter: "You're so mean! Tell me, what else did he say when you left?"

North: "He asked me if I was really okay, but I didn't tell him."

Ter: "You're so mean to him, and he is even helping you."

North: "I'm ashamed of what I did. I'll apologize to him, I'll make it up to him."

Ter: "How are you going to apologize when you're so ashamed? Anyway, it's your fault, so you really need to. Good luck with that."

North: "Help me, please..."

Ter: "You don't need my help anymore, so you deal with that yourself first."

NRT: He frowned, and Ter asked him,

Ter: "Oh, why do you look like that?"

North: "I just didn't get enough sleep!!"

Ter: "Umm, you'll be haunted there. Just you wait."

NRT: Ter scared North.

North: "Stop scaring me."

Ter: "I really like scaring you."

North: "Okay, if I can't sleep here..."

Ter: "Hala!! What's that!! Behind you!!"

North: "Where!!??"

POV: North said while looking behind him, looking scared.

Ter: "HAHAHA! I was just joking HAHA..."

NRT: North threw a pillow at Ter.

Ter: (While saying)

North: "It's really you, I said don't scare me!!"

Ter: "You're really easy to scare."

North: "Let's just sleep now." (Then lies down)

Ter: "Umm.... (Then goes to his bed) Good night."

North: "Umm... good night."

NRT: And they slept soundly. In the morning, Ter woke up first and checked his cellphone. He was shocked by what he saw and suddenly sat up.

Ter: "North!! North North (while going to North) North look at this quickly!!"

North: "Later..." (then turns away)...

Ter: "Look at this first quickly!!"

North: "What is it?"

NRT: Ter approached and showed it to North.

Ter: "Here, look!"

NRT: His eyes widened and he sat up.

Ter: "That's you, right?!" (while looking at North)

North: "Umm..... Dude, what am I going to do?!"

Ter: "I really don't know either!!..."

North: "Dude, help me..."

Ter: "Okay, fine, I'll help you. Like this (while approaching North). You'll ask for his forgiveness, then when he accepts, he'll say, 'I'll accept your apology but on one condition, you'll follow everything I tell you to do.' If he says that, don't refuse..."

North: "But..."

Ter: "If you don't want to, then don't. You'll just be apologizing forever."

North: "Okay, fine, but what if he accepts my apology?"

Ter: "Then that's good."

North: "Okay, fine, I'll do that, even if I'm ashamed, I'll just thicken my face."

Ter: "Umm... by the way, you don't have class?"

North: "No, just this afternoon. You?"

Ter: "Ah, is that so... I have to go now."

North: "Okay, take care."

Ter: "Umm, okay..."

POV: And so Ter left, leaving North behind. While in school, Ter kept looking at his phone and examining the picture of North and that guy.

Ter: "He looks familiar, wait a minute."

NRT: He couldn't really see Johan's face because he was turned away.

Ter: "Because Sir Johan has a birthmark on his hand. Wait, let me look at that picture again."

NRT: He looked at the picture again and zoomed in on the guy's hand. When he saw that the birthmark of the guy was the same as Johan's, his eyes widened because he knew that Johan was the one who accidentally bumped into North.

Ter: "Oh my gosh, it was Sir Johan who bumped into North, I'm dead!!! Wait, I'll chat with North."

NRY: Ter quickly chatted with North. While Ter was chatting, North was resting when he was awakened by the loud notification on his phone. He picked it up and saw that Ter was chatting him. And he looked at it.

Ter: "North!!!!"

North: "Why?"

Ter: "That guy who bumped into you..."

North: "Umm, why?"

Ter: "He's Johan, the president of the campus!!!"

North: "What?! Johan?!"

Ter: "Yes, it's Johan!!"

North: "How did that happen?!"

Ter: "It's like this, he has a birthmark on his hand and they look exactly the same in the picture we saw earlier."

North: "Really?!"

Ter: "Yes..."

North: "Dude, what I did was so embarrassing!"

Ter: "What you did was really embarrassing, imagine it was Johan of all people."

North: "How am I going to apologize for this?"

Ter: "Just do what I told you."

North: "But I'm embarrassed!!"

Ter: "Don't be embarrassed!"

North: "Ummm... what if I apologize now?"

Ter: "Okay, go ahead."

North: "I'll just toughen up."

Ter: "Ummm... Okay, bye for now, the teacher's here."

North: "Okay, bye."

NRT: After saying goodbye, he put down his phone, then lay down. He looked at his phone again and looked at the time and the time was 12:46, he quickly got up to take a bath and get dressed. And he went to school and chatted with Ter.

North: "Ter, where are you?"

NRY: Ter's notification suddenly rang and he picked up his phone and saw that North had chatted him and replied here.

Ter: "I'm outside."

North: "Okay, I'll go there."

Ter: "Okay."

NRT: North went to Ter and saw that he was in the parking lot, and continued walking towards Ter.

Ter: "So you're here. Oh, are you going to apologize to him?"

North: "I'm embarrassed..."

Ter: "You said earlier you were going to apologize, and now you don't want to anymore?"

North: "Okay, fine. Let's look for him so I can apologize."

Ter: "Let's go." (While pulling North)

North: "But..."

Ter: "No more buts, come on!"

North: "Wait, don't pull me!"

NRT: While North and Ter were walking, they saw Johan sitting in the parking lot. Ter said...

Ter: "There, he's there..."

North: "Where?!"

Ter: "There, oh, let's go now quickly!!" (While pushing)

North: "[Nervous] But..."

Ter: "Don't be embarrassed, come on, let's go now."

NRT: He approached him and said...

North: "Excuse me, sir..." (nervously said by North)

NRT: And Johan looked at him... when Johan turned around, North said.

North: "I just want to say something to you."

NRT: From sitting down, Johan stood up and listened.

Johan: "Say it."

North: "I just wanted to ask for forgiveness for what I did last night... I'm sorry."

NRT: While North was speaking with his head bowed, Johan was looking at North like he wanted something from North, but North wasn't finished speaking, he added to it.

North: "If you don't accept my apology, I'm ready to do everything you tell me to do to be forgiven. Just let me serve you!"

North: "Okay, Sir Johan, please forgive me." (said while bowing)

Johan: "Look at me."

North: "Huh?!"

Johan: "I said, look at me."

NRT: And so North looked at Johan.

Johan: "I accept your apology, and don't call me Sir Johan anymore, just Johan."

North: "Really?! Thank you Sir... I'm sorry, thank you Johan!!!" (said happily)

Johan: "Umm, don't be so polite."

North: "Okay, but..."

Johan: "Just follow me."

North: "Okay..."

North: "I'm sorry again, okay, I'll leave you now."

NRT: And so North was about to leave but Johan grabbed his hand and said.

Johan: "Wait, what was your name again?" (Asking this)

POV: North was surprised and nervous because of Johan's holding him. And he said.

North: "[Nervous] Ah, I-I'm North, North is my name..."

POV: After North spoke, Johan was looking at him, he looked here, but Johan still didn't let go of North's hand, and North said.

North: "Can you let go of me now?" (nervously asked)

NRT: But Johan didn't hear it and was just staring blankly at North.

North: "Hello? (said while waving) Johan?"

Johan: "Huh?" (replied)

North: "Are you okay?"

Johan: "Ah, yes, I'm okay...

North: "my hand..." (said)

NRT: And so he let go of his grip and said.

Johan: "Ah, I'm sorry."

North: "It's okay. Oh, can I leave you now?"

Johan: "Umm, okay..."

North: "Bye, thank you for accepting my apology." (said smiling)

NRT: As North was walking away, Johan kept looking at him. While Johan was looking at North, his friends Typhoon and Arthit suddenly arrived.

Typhoon: "Wow, what a stare!"

Arthit: "Yeah, dude, who's that? Is that your boyfriend?!"

Johan: "No, he's not my boyfriend."

Arthit: "What do you mean, no? You even held his hand earlier, you even said 'Wait' ... what was that again?" (Asking Typhoon)

Typhoon: "I don't know, I didn't hear it."

Arthit: "Ah, well, he said something then."

Johan: "I told you, he's not my boyfriend!"

Arthit: "If he's not your boyfriend, it's because you like him."

Typhoon: "That's why you like him, right?!"

Johan: "It seems like that's it."

Typhoon: "Admit it!"

Arthit: "The Johan who didn't care about love before is now in love. Oh, unfairness, he's in love now..."

Arthit: "Anyway, you guys look good together, right, 'phoon?"

Typhoon: "Yeah, right."

NRT: While the two of them were talking, they didn't know that Johan had already left. Arthit added.

Arthit: "We just want to support you, dude." (While looking at Johan, but they didn't see Johan anymore, he had already left)

Arthit: "Hey, wait!" (shouted to Johan) "Hurry up!"

NRT: They hurried to run towards Johan.

Arthit: "This one didn't even say anything, he's already leaving, so we were just talking nonsense."

Johan: "You guys are so slow." (Said)

NRT: I'm so sorry for the error, I didn't introduce Typhoon and Arthit and I will introduce it first. Arthit is the vice president of the campus and he is also smart and handsome and he is the one who handles the basketball game, he and Johan are the basketball coach.Typhoon, on the other hand, is a product manager and he is also a soccer player, he is the one who handles the soccer game.

[Back to North and Ter]

Ter: "Oh, what did he say? Did he accept your apology or not?"

North: "Umm, he accepted it, but he's so random and weird."

Ter: "Why?"

NRT: In a few moments, his story to Ter was interrupted because the bell rang and North said.

North: "I'll just tell you everything later when we get home."

Ter: "But..."

North: "I'm going to class now!!" (shouted while hurrying to run)

Ter: "Hayst! Okay, fine."

NRT: North hurried to walk until he reached the room and he sat down. In a few seconds, the teacher arrived in their classroom. While North was in class, Ter was in the parking lot using his phone and they were exchanging messages with Hill.

Hill: "How are you?"

Ter: "I'm okay, how about you?"

Hill: "I'm okay too."

Ter: "You seem tired from your school."

Hill: "Umm... I'm tired."

Ter: "Don't get so stressed."

Hill: "Umm..."

Ter: "Rest for now."

Hill: "I still want to talk to you."

Ter: "Rest later, okay?"

Hill: "It's not needed, when I see you or chat with you, my tiredness immediately disappears."

Ter: "There you go again." (said while blushing) "Stop with those lines!"

Hill: "No, I'm serious, when I see you or chat with you, my tiredness immediately disappears."

Ter: "Asus, stop it!"

Hill: "She's angry again, I'm sorry." (said endearingly)

NRT: Hill kept chatting, but Ter just ignored it.

Hill: "Hey, I'm really sorry." (said pleadingly)

Ter: "Do whatever you want with your life!"

Hill: "I'm sorry, I'm really serious about what I'm saying, I'm sorry."

NRT: While Hill was asking for forgiveness, Ter was blushing so much, and he chatted with Hill again.

Ter: "Umm..." (said pretending to be angry)

Hill: "What, are you angry?"

Ter: "Sorry, accepted. Besides, I'm not angry HAHA..."

Hill: "Really, are you really not angry?"

Ter: "Umm..."

NRT: While the two of them were talking, North had finished his class and went to Ter. While they were exchanging messages, North saw that Ter was smiling so much, and he said.

North: "You're smiling so much, you look like you won the lottery, is that Hill, right?" (Asking)

Ter: "Umm..." (smiling at North)

North: "You're blushing so much again, let's go home now."

Ter: "Of course... let's go, wait, I'll say goodbye to Hill first."

North: "Okay."

NRT: And so Ter said goodbye to Hill.

Ter: "Hill, I'll just go home now with North. Let's just continue chatting on the board later, okay?"

Hill: "Okay, sure, take care on your way home, Ter. Love you much! <3 :)"

Ter: "Umm... love you too!"

NRT: And so he finished saying goodbye.

Ter: "Let's go now?"

North: "Let's go."

Ter: "Wait, you're going to tell me, right?" (excitedly asking)

North: "You're too excited."

Ter: "I always want to know right away!" (said)

North: "Let's wait until we get to the board."

Ter: "Okay, sure, just tell me later, okay?"

North: "Yeah, let's go, it's getting dark."

Ter: "Let's go!"

NRT: Upon arriving at the board, Ter took a shower first, before North was next.

Ter: "I'll just take a shower first."

North: "Okay, sure, go ahead."

NRT: While Ter was in the bathroom, North was sitting on his bed. Whilewaiting for Ter, he was resting and he was suddenly called by Ter.

Ter: "North!"

North: "Why?"

Ter: "Can I ask you for a favor?"

North: "What is it?"

Ter: "Can you get my clothes that are on the bed?"

North: "Just a moment, I'll get them."

NRT: And North handed it to Ter. And he finished changing and came out, then North followed to take a shower too.

North: "Are you done?" (Asking)

Ter: "Umm..."

North: "Okay, sure, it's my turn."

Ter: "Don't forget to tell me later after you've done showering!!" (shouted)

North: "Okay."

NRT: And he continued to shower. While he was showering, Ter was fixing himself up for bed. After a few minutes, North finished showering.

Ter: "Oh, are you done?"

North: "Umm." (slowly closing the door and heading to his bed)

NRT: Then Ter approached him, and said.

Ter: "So, are you going to tell me the story now?"

North: "Okay, sure."

North: "It's like this, while I was apologizing, I was looking down, and then I told him that if he wouldn't accept my apology, I was ready to do everything he asked of me just to be forgiven, and then I said that he should let me serve him."

Ter: "What did he say?"

North: "He said 'look up' because while I was talking, I was looking down."

Ter: "Did you look up?"

North: "Not yet. I just said 'huh?'"

Ter: "What did he say?"

North: "Nothing, he just repeated what he said earlier. And on his second time saying it, I looked up."

Ter: "Wow, what did he say again?"

North: "He said, 'I accept your apology, and don't call me Sir Johan anymore, just Johan, and don't use "po" so much, you're too polite.' That's what he said."
