//I'm so happy this book is getting more attention lately, to all the silent readers please drop any comments that have been running through your head! I'll reply to everyone.💜💜
And I just noticed I've been forgetting to pair my opening quotes with the last few updates oop--
○○○
"To every ignorant soul rotting in hell, I'm sorry it's your flesh that's burning and not the flesh of who neglected you. To every ignorant soul rotting on earth, it's your flesh that will be burning not the flesh of whom you've been neglected by."
○○○
Yoonbi
I lay the side of my head down on my desk, propping it with my arms as a pillow so that I'm looking straight at Jungkook, dismissing anything related to this math class. My mind automatically shuts down after chemistry because I don't like it much and the drama session a while ago didn't help at all.
I told you I'll watch over you, Yoonbi. I remember Jungkook's words and ignore my fluttering heart as I reminisce it all over again.
Jungkook holds RaeHee's arm in the air before she could slap me, when I turn to him I see him looking at me before he turns to RaeHee as she pulls her arm back and looks up at Jungkook in disbelief.
She's shorter than me. Boohoo.
"O-oppa," she stutters incredulously as Jungkook tilts his head to the side, giving her an obvious once over.
"Don't call me oppa, I'm not your oppa." It takes my all to not laugh at her as I listen to Jungkook's retort. I flipped through our year book before and noticed that's she is older than Jungkook so he didn't really say anything wrong.
The teacher's entrance rescues RaeHee from such embarrassing moment and I immediately discern RaeHee's change of feelings towards that certain teacher all because she came in just on time. When I look at my side after RaeHee glares at me one last time and takes her seat, I don't see Jungkook. I catch his figure walking back to his seat instead, ignoring me again.
I sigh in distaste as I eye Kookie's side profile, looks like he got his fair share of sleep during all the previous classes and he's so awake now. He's still ignoring me. I try distracting myself because I don't even understand why I'm so worked up about all this, if he wants to ignore me then so what! Let him be, I don't care!
I imagine Suga's voice at the back of my head, telling me it's a lie. At the thought of him I glance at him to see him already raising one of his eyebrows at me. I shake my head and roll my eyes at him then look at my desk, I came here to be away from Jungkook but it didn't help one bit.
At least maybe my match making mission progressed? I look at Jimin and RyungNa closely before triggering my psychic powers to know what they're doing in detail. I'm just distracting myself, I'm not nosy at all.
Jimin scrawls on a note and passes it to RyungNa just like he used to do with me, are you feeling hot RyungNa? Your face is so red. I hold back my snickering at the content of his note as RyungNa's face turns into an even darker shade of crimson.
My hearteu! I can't Yoonbi! He's too much to handle, he's too close to me! And his side profile rocks the earth whole! Damn, he doesn't even know how red I can get. I'll pass out.
I smile at RyungNa's fangirling, enjoying how happy I made her. I accidentally hear Jimin thinking that RyungNa looks cute like that and cover my mouth in excitement for my girl as my breathes come out heavier.
"Ms Lee?" RyungNa and I turn to the teacher, but she's looking at me, "are you okay?" She asks me in concern. I think I hyperventilated or something to the point she noticed.
"I'm good."
"Did you finish solving what's on the board?" She asks me.
"I'm done."
My replies remind me of Jungkook and I turn my head to look at him just in time to catch him quickly looking away from me, hah! Caught yah bastard. What the hell is wrong with you!
Chill, Yoonbi. Since when was I a bastard? And what the hëll is wrong?? RyungNa asks me and I mentally facepalm. I forgot we were still talking so I should stop mentally shouting for now.
Nevermind.
The rest of the day goes similarly, but I handle it well because I found something to do and said something is really really entertaining.
Jimin and RyungNa.
I could know what they're doing and what's happening in their atmosphere, but Jimin was quiet most of the time. Two more trivial notes other than the one about how red RyungNa is come from him plus some chitchats that mean nothing here and there. I was really looking for something more.
I practically know Jimin as much as SoMin does, she kept talking about him. I know everything about him, his favorite food, his favorite color, his family, his family's restaurant and much more, his tragedy too of course. I saw all the times when he broke down and I know how he used to be before his sister left him.
So I needed to help RyungNa out, but I can't let her know that I have a hand in anything, I don't have the right to control their relationship but I'll just put a spark and they will ignite the fire.
I am staring at Jimin so hard when I feel eyes on me, I look away at Jungkook to see him looking at me then his eyes move to Jimin before he looks away and continues ignoring me. I ignore him too at this point and look back at my soon-to-be couple. Does Jimin even like RyungNa? I mean duh, Jimin is RyungNa's crush and all but does he like her? Is he ready to like anyone that way?
The bell rings and everyone starts taking their bags and leaving the class, the feeling of relief fills the air as all the students head home, at last. I stay in my seat, looking around hopelessly. My mood is really bad.
I notice someone standing beside my desk and look up to see Namjoon looking down at me, "what's wrong with people being grumpy today?"
"Look on the bright side, the day is over." I huff out as I stand up and put the copies RyungNa passed me from my bag over each other with my pouch on top, "and by the way, I'm not grumpy." I say threw gritted teeth as I glare up at his dimpled smile and slam his arm with my shoulder, only because I couldn't reach his shoulder, before passing by him.
"Yeah right, not grumpy. At. All." I hear him mutter and follow me to take his bag from the other side of class, RyungNa is collecting her stuff too as I go to stand beside her.
"I want to go home and sleep forever." I whine as I put my bag over my desk and start packing, knowing perfectly well that Jungkook is right behind me.
"I want to go home and" note down this day! RyungNa shrieks the last part inside my head and we both hug and fangirl together, receiving weird looks from all Bangtan except Suga, who is sleeping. Jackson comes to us and stands right behind sleeping Suga, Jr. comes beside him and gives him a cube of ice that he sliced off his hand that he transformed into ice without anyone noticing.
Jackson holds back his laugh, gesturing to all of the people in the room to watch. Oh this is going to make my day, I giggle quietly and watch in anticipation as the ice cube falls inside Suga's shirt, sliding on his neck.
"Awesome." I whisper-laugh taking a step backwards and hit someone, "sorry." I move away from them and watch attentively, too focused on Suga's reaction that I don't get to dwell on the familiar scent of Jungkook that surrounds me.
Suga's head flies up and displays a poker face then a smug one as he stands up and moves his arms a bit till the ice cube falls to the floor. His mates clap for him but we mutants boo. Was that the reaction we thought will be priceless? RyungNa tells us.
It was. I reply as I pull the strap of my bag on my shoulder and wait for all my SMG to pass first so I could follow, it was too late when I noticed that everyone waltzed out of the class room and only Jungkook was left, along with me. Slice me, please.
I huff out and walk right past him as he zips his bag close and pulls it on his shoulder, I intentionally walked too fast so I won't see his ignorant face again. I hear his footsteps behind me as I go out of the class and grit my teeth, wanting him to just get out of my sight although he isn't following me.
I just want to punch him! Ugh! Looks like that was the limit to my tolerance, I stopped on my tracks but he continued walking till he passed me. I walk forward and block his way, finally standing in front him face to face, "what did I do? Why are you being a cold bitçh today?"
It was too late when I realized that I blurt that out too fast, my own voice was too angry and cold that it surprised me. Am I really that affected only because he's ignoring me?
"Me? I'm being a cold bïtch?" Okay my words on his tongue sound so much better, I furrow my eyes at him despite my small relishing session at listening to him curse.
Bless Jungkook- I mean I hate Jungkook! I damn my inner voices and glare at him, "yes, a cold bitčh, a bastard." I see him clutch the hair at the back of his head and look to his side, his jaw bone clenches and I bite my lips.
Damn Jungkook for being so handsome.
"You're really something, you know?" He looks at me with a hurt lope sided smile, it seemed like he couldn't say what he really wanted to say and just settled down for those words. I hold my breath back as I look into his eyes, maybe I could just listen to his words without him having to say them.
Just this once, he wants to tell me anyway. I unleash only his current thoughts.
I see myself kissing Jackson. Jackson's mouth sucking my neck and my hands roaming around his body. The scene changes as Jungkook leaves the door open and runs out of the hospital. He stops just when he's a block away, panting after all the running. He kicks the street ground and roars, "damn it!"
Shit. He saw me!-- he saw us... It takes me a moment to register that I didn't do anything wrong, why is he so mad about it! As he eyes me with such intensity that I feel like the earth beneath me may crack, I hear his mind ramble.
I don't know why I'm so mad at you because of it, but I do know that I don't want to face you right now. I don't know what I'll do, and I don't even want to know what you will think of me after this day. I'm done!
"J-Jungkook..." I find myself stuttering and taking a shaky step backwards, watching him look away, his hand still in his hair. What did I do to you? My lips weaver in stun and overwhelm. I'm totally lost.
Does Jeon Jungkook like me? I conclude, failing to find any other explanation. How naïve I've been drowns into me and I realize that everything he've been doing since this morning indicates that.
But there is a fault in all this, if he likes me then why is he so confused and... Disturbed? He doesn't know it, and I don't need him to realize it anytime soon. If I was able to keep Jackson by my side after being rejected, it doesn't mean that I can do the same with Jungkook.
I'm not ready to face any of this bülłśhít, plus it's all a mass of assumptions that my stupid brain made up. None of it is real, they're lies said by insensible inner voices.
All I need to do now is give him time to get over it and go back home as soon as possible, I need to take care of my mom and hopefully get the chance to talk to my dad. Hopefully.
"Woah," I fake surprise,"that was unbelievable, so intimidating to the point you almost got me! I don't get any of this shît, but I'm sure you'll get over your man-day soon." I smile at him.
He watches me with a poker face, "I'll consider that none of this happened, so don't worry. I think you need to calm down, and I need to go home. Call me when you're all chill and able to actually speak to me!" I end my rambling and turn around, waving at him as I run home.
My heart is beating so fast, as soon as I'm out of school and out of sight I trigger my speed power and run home. I ring the bell again and again, one ring after another till my dad opens the door and his cologne fills my air.
I see him holding his suitcase, all ready for work. I walk in and close the door before dropping my bag and going to the kitchen to get a cup of water, "stay there dad." I tell him. I drink, feeling my throat so dry. Am I nervous? What the hełl Yoonbi?
I really need something to fill my mind, something to distract me from... Jungkook. I need to get him off my damn mind! "Um, I think I really need to go, I'm pretty late and-"
"No, dad. We need to talk."
You're my only resort, dad.
