The Cheerful Cold Girl
Chapter 5. negative thoughts

Sofie Auliana a notoriously cold, calm girl has now become my friend. Yesterday's incident was really hard to believe I didn't think the sacred book made my relationship with Sofie like this.

In addition, Sofie's nature is very different 180 degrees, if this is how I can laugh if someone says that Sofie is a calm person.

I mean he even jumped for joy just because I became his first friend and just because I read the book he became so radiant. Calm from where.

But that side is a little funny.. Not what I think, enough with that stupid thought and let's go to school.

"Dad, mom. I'll go first." I waved at my father and mother in the living room.

"Yes, be careful." they replied.

I smiled in response and immediately walked out of the house. While I was walking precisely in the alley of the T-junction, I happened to meet with Sofie. Whether this is luck, or destiny I don't know either because our house shouldn't be in the same area.

Sofie glimpsed at me. And at that very moment he immediately smiled happily and shone without waiting for a long time he walked over to me.

"Sebastian, whoa. It's a coincidence." said Sofie with a smile.

"Yes, you're right it's so unexpected."

"When we meet like this, how about we all walk together?"

Sofie looked at me expectantly, her cheeks slightly red and her ex glowing. If I rejected him he would be very disappointed, even I can imagine what reaction he would have had most likely he would have cried.

I let out a breath. 'Looks like I don't have a choice'

"Yes, of course. Why not?"

Once again she was excited and approached her face with mine.

"Yosha, I've been waiting for a moment like this. Departing with friends, going home with friends, that's a scene I usually read in comics, or novels. It's fantastic."

And Sofie continued to babble, Sofie said after this I did not pay much attention, I was more focused on my own mind.

I can only make a forced smile. Sofie's words just made me feel a little claustrophobic. I remember the story Sofie told me.

Sofie is a pretty shy person and she is not very liked by the people around her, maybe because her face was too good they got a little envious and I certainly remember Sofie being accused of snatching her friend's boyfriend.

I'm sure he's been through a lot of hardship, even he's been so excited just because someone like me became his friend. It proves that Sofie has been lonely for a very long time.

Speaking of loneliness, I was very knowledgeable about it, so unconsciously my hand moved to caress Sofie's head. Trying to bring calmness to his heart, although he looks very cheerful near me, but I am very sure he must not be as he seems.

I continued to caress her black hair unconsciously and Sofie was just speechless accepting that, she lowered her head and blushed.

"I'm sorry, I did it unconsciously."

I hurried to let go of my hand because I realized what I had just done.

But there was no angry expression from Sofie, she still lowered her head and instead tugged at my white shirt.

"It's okay, I'm just happy."

"Other times.You may do it again, but as much as possible not in public." Sofie's face was full of red.

"Y. yeah, sorry."

I lowered my head and tried to hide my shame as much as possible.

Realizing we had become the subject of the gazes of my citizens and Sofie immediately rushed away without saying anything. And both of our cheeks felt very hot as if they were on fire.

After walking for about 15 minutes and without saying anything we finally arrived at school.

When we entered the school all the people's gazes headed towards Sofie, there was no way they would look at me. Because I'm now walking right next to Sofie. I could feel envy, jealousy, and anger from the gazes of the male students who were looking at me.

I sweat and speed up my steps so as not to be the center of attention of the school.

We climbed the stairs and finally arrived at the class.

I sat on the right by the door, while Sofie was as usual. In the left corner adjacent to the window with graceful nature Sofie stared at the window.

'Pfft~ Shit somehow saw the nature of Sofie who quickly changed from cheerful to cold it was kind of funny.'

'After hearing Sofie's story, I'm sure she's just embarrassed right now.. He must have been just waiting for someone to approach and speak.'

'I mean, pfft~ Just take a look at him. Sofie kept staring in all directions as if looking for attention, but unfortunately no one was aware and she quickly returned to staring at the window, she also continued to play her long black hair.'

'Your Pfft~ Sofie is so funny'

While thinking about that subconsciously my gaze had focused on Sofie and my cheeks also quickly heated up from being aware of what I was doing.

I looked away and looked back ahead.

'What am I doing? Why do I keep staring at Sofie?'

'I know she's beautiful, but I've looked at her for too long.'

Probably right, I've been bewitched by Sofie. Well, naturally she is very beautiful, popular and most importantly Sofie's smile is very sweet.

But when compared to me, he is like the sky and the ground, our levels are very different.

Sofie currently looks lonely in her seat, honestly I want to invite her to talk, I want to see her smile again, but if I get close isn't it I will worsen Sofie's reputation? If an ordinary person like me was close to Sofie, what would others think?

I know the answer, they will definitely assume that Sofie is a stupid girl because she can't choose the right guy.

That's right Sofie is a very different person to me. I can't match him, whether by physicality, wealth, academia, everything he's superior to. I don't even deserve to be close to him.

Sorry Sofie this is for your own good. Looks like you better ask someone else to cure your pestilence. I'm afraid if we're close. Then it will worsen your reputation, I really want to avoid it.

With such thoughts in mind I decided not to talk to Sofie, be it at recess, or empty hour, even though Sofie looked at me with hope I was moving away from her.

At last the clock home sounded. Once again I lifted my bag and left without saying anything to Sofie, even then I did not see Sofie in the chair. So how else.

I actually feel very guilty, but this is for Sofie's sake, she'd rather not be close to me, there are still many better people in this world. Sofie will soon find one of them. With those negative thoughts I kept walking planning to get out of class to go home
