No Plagiarism!RpKXkL1d7ddBFAbbyRxlposted on PＥNAＮＡ

**Afternoon in an empty classroom,** upperclassmen paired us for mock drills.

26Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIV0w0FVio

Naturally, I got Lu Huai again.

26Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGjsynL5SJ

Silent as ever, but lethally precise. Memory like a steel trap.

26Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8flb892gF6

While presenting our PPT, I quipped offhand:

*"I write better than I speak."*

26Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YiQ25t6fA

Lu Huai locked eyes with me for two solid seconds—then deadpanned:

*"I know."*

26Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3MR4MCk62

*God.* That sharp jawline of his looked *illegally* handsome when serious.

26Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRd6fo1bdr

26Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMFbctQmqK

Post-dinner library session.

(*"Answer-checking"*—code for *Lu Huai inventing reasons to keep me late.* Whatever. Not complaining.)

26Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01FXbN5REP

I stumbled over a complex formula. Without a word, he slid his water glass toward me.

26Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhKelQwds1

The silence turned lethal. I deflected:

*"My novel’s stuck."*

26Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4440bySHpu

*"Rewrite it,"* he said, like commenting on the weather, *"without the guilt this time."*

26Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCnG5PVk5d

My head snapped up.

26Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AXOEfDI4L

*OS: That’s *lii’s* exact cadence. Are they—?*

26Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZZ5nxvSop

26Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bi3Ority2

10 PM. Posted the update. *lii* struck instantly:

**[lii]:** *"Three hesitations today. Why?"*

26Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExV100kaPg

I caved—replied:

*"Do you know me?"*

26Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaaKNyIzug

Four words came minutes later:

**[lii]:** *"Guess."*

26Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmbwF2MOVA

*"Hah."* My thumb hovered. *Sly, repressed STEM nerd.*

26Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GjnJRcO1Y

The screen blurred. Suddenly obvious—*lii* was Lu Huai all along.
