Leon

My mind keeps raging with a big question mark about the man next to me right now. Don't know why it feels like He has something different inside of him.
I am one of those men who was born with such an extraordinary sensitivity, even the sensitivity that is inside of me is too extraordinary than others, so sometimes it makes me different from my friends.
Sometimes I can sense that something bad is going to happen, and a few minutes later it is. My classmate fell into the sewer, but I don't know for sure if it was because of my feelings or not.
But the bottom line is, that I was born with something different inside of me. It felt like something was tickling from head to toe, but I didn't know what it was.
It's just a feeling I like to overthink this.
Since the man who was on my right, he was just silently watching Mr. Daniel, who was busy explaining about today's cultural arts assignment.
I'm usually always focused and passionate about art and art lessons, but today it feels like the clouds are covering me. I can't focus at all when there's a boy on my right.
I glanced in the direction where David was, Even though I pretended not to see him, I think he knew that I was currently glancing at him.
You could say that he is handsome, and has a proportional face that fits him so well. Sometimes I feel that some people's faces don't match them.
I am one of those people who suit my face. My opinion.
"Alright, all of you can do the assignment I just explained, and collect it before recess!" Mr. Daniel said to all the students in this class.
'I'm dead! What was explained by Mr. Daniel? Why do I not understand at all the explanation explained by Mr. Daniel? More precisely I did not listen and was less focused on the lessons explained by Mr. Daniel.' I thought confused.
I feel like David knows I'm confused because I can feel that he's watching me right now.
Watch me gripping my colored pencil tightly and wiggling my feet hard under the table. And that's one of my weaknesses, I'm very easily nervous if there's something uncomfortable on my mind.
"Hey, are you okay?" David asked me gently.
I didn't feel like answering his question, but as if my head was turning towards him, I spread a smile on my face at him, then my lips seemed to move on their own to answer David's question.
"I didn't focus on the explanation from Mr. Daniel, so I was really confused about what task he was given?" I said spontaneously to David.
Fuck! I especially pulled my face when I finished saying those words because actually, I'm not a person who likes to make small talk with other people. Especially with new students.
But it feels like this time I failed because everything has happened and I can't stop myself from always answering questions from David.
This man must have something in him that I don't know.
"So Mr. Daniel just explained that we have to draw someone who is in love!" David replied smiling at me, his eyes narrowed and his smile widened as he finished his sentence.
I swear I died. Why is this man's smile so different from other men's? My heart beats so fast when I see his smile.
Especially after hearing the last sentence of his words, "In love" in my head right now is just a couple who are making love and kissing in the park. Do I have to draw it?
"Oh, thank you!" I replied softly then I nodded my head, smiling at David.
Since when did I act like a girl blushing to a guy who was currently staring at her face. fuck. That is not me!
Without looking back in the direction where David was, I decided to draw the assignment given by Mr. Daniel.
I slowly closed my eyes and took a deep breath and let it out slowly. Then it was time for me to put some ink on my drawing book.
When I was concentrating on a work that I was about to produce, it felt like the world around me stopped instantly, I could feel every second of any movement around me. And that's what can make me calm to be able to draw and produce good works.
'RING!!!'
I gasped and put down my colored pencils when I heard the recess bell ringing. I didn't think that the arts and culture lessons had to be finished so quickly.
It seemed like only half an hour, but the recess bell had rung.
Fortunately, the work I inscribed just now has been completed.
I smiled widely as I looked at the work in front of me, holding it so proudly and ready to collect it.
"Wow, Gorgeous!" David said while looking in the direction where my work was.
I slowly looked up at him, then gave him a big smile. This is the first time I have received a compliment from someone else.
"Really?" I asked him.
"Yeah, this is the most beautiful drawing I've ever seen," David replied, flashing a smile back at me.
This is the first time it feels like my soul is flying into the air leaving my body in the art class. Because this is the first time that I have been praised by other people because the one who usually praises my work is only Mr. Daniel.
I have always cherished Mr. Daniel in my heart because he is the one who always appreciates my work.
But this time it feels like someone is rebelling to be included in the list of special people in my heart because David said those words that made me incredibly flattered.
I got up from my seat, then slowly gathered my work for Mr. Daniel.
"This is Sir!" I said to Mr. Daniel while putting my picture on the table.
"Wow, that's great Leon!" Said Mr. Daniel which made me float back in the air.
Without answering his flattery, I immediately turned around and hurried back to my seat.
"BUGH!"
But unfortunately, I didn't realize that behind me there were people who were also queuing up to collect the picture.
My body collided with him, my head hit his broad chest, then my legs which were previously forward, swayed to the side so that my weight was resting on the side.
'Fuck! This is embarrassing! Will I fall in front of the class? Seen by all my classmates!. Hell no.' I thought worried.
'HAP!'
But it feels like what I'm thinking doesn't match reality because right now I feel that my body is supported by strong arms that wrap around my waist.
"Are you okay?" he asked in his deep hoarse voice, echoing in my head.
