Adam always have been the smartest kid in his class. He could even help his friends to cheat on exams and he would never get caught. He really did think he was the smartest person of Bishalint, maybe even the whole Boroks Kingdom! When the old scholars brought in some strangers to the school, Adam saw a great opportunity to show them how awesome he was and how stupid they were. He would bully the new students a bit and they would always get scared of him. Adam really liked being the strong one, until one day, when he was ten years, he made fun of this farmer girl that had to work in the librairy to even stay in school . She asked if they needed anything and Adam responded harshly ''Nothing a farmer could help with! I wonder why they keep accepting low classes like you!'' She crossed her arms and had the audacity to tell him that he made some mistakes in his homework!? He was the smartest kid here, there is no way he could have done any mistakes. Adam still looked at his homework and after a little while, he found the mistakes. It was nothing big actually, how did she managed to find them so fast? Adam didn't know what to say, so he stormed out of the librairy while his friends were laughing at him... After this day, he came to the conclusion that he was too smart and mature to bully other people...

As the years passed, Adam realised that he wasn't the smartest of all and where you were born didn't dictate your intellectual abilities. In fact, that farmer that worked in the librairy, Lee, was one of the most intelligent person he ever met. They had lots of classes together and they were now working together most of the time. He was always in the librairy early in the moring, at first it was to work in silent but then it was to be able to see Lee more often. She was an early bird too. Always hard working in the morning so she would have time to do all her chores before going to bed. She said it was the habit she got when she was living in her family's farm.

Adam was now twenty-one years old. He couldn't fall asleep last night and it will really early in the morning. He spent almost the whole night wondering if he should ask Lee out. He couldn't stop thinking about how rude he was to her when he was younger. She seemed to have forgave him, but still... He finally decided to ask her out, but he had to find a way to do it properly so he headed for the librairy and sat at his usual spot at the back of the common room. He was so lost in his thoughts that he forgot to change and was still wearing the same clothes he was wearing the day before. So it was really messy, like his hair. He worked for a few hours on a way to tell his feelings to Lee when he heard a small knock on his booth and looked up. His breathing got faster and his eyes widened a bit when he saw that Lee was standing in front of him. That is when he noticed how messed up he looked. He didn't know what to say or do, so he only stared at her. After some endlessly long seconds Lee asked if he wanted to go on a date with her. He let out a small laugh of disbelief and told her that he was working on a way to ask her outright now ''So... yeah I would love to go on a date with you.''

Afte ra few months of them being together, Adam couldn't be happier. But he noticed that Lee didn't look as happy as he was. In fact, it looked like he was always doing something wrong when they were alone together. She did tell him that she wasn't ready to get intimate and he respected that, but every time he would deepen the kiss or hug for a little longer than usual, she would push him away and ask him to stop. He would always ask what he did wrong, but she would never give him a real reason other than she didn't want to do it... But Adam didn't know what this 'it' was. He couldn't really see the differences in the kisses or the hugs so it was hard to know when to stop...

And after almost a year, it happened. She broke up. He did something wrong again and didn't know what... He felt horrible. The only thing he ever wanted was to be with her. To see her happy. He wanted to tell her, but the Principal told him she had left for an important task and he didn't know how much time it would take her to come back .Adam felt devastated, but he decided to make some researches to see if he could find out why Lee was acting the way she were.

After a few months of her being away, he overheard some scholars saying that they should empty Lee's room and give it to someone else since she was gone for so long. Adam couldn't let that happen. He said he would take care of the room while she was away and use it to put his books in it too. Which he never did, he only needed a reason to not leave the room inoccupied.

Two years had passed and he finally found why Lee was acting the way she was. Well he thought he did. He found this book in the back of the librairy that was talking about genders and sexualities and he saw that chapter about asexuality. The descriptions seemed to fit Lee a lot. But he needed to make sure. He had to talk to her about it... If she ever come back and if she wants to talk to him...
