MR. ANONYMOUS

77

♡ CHAERIN'S POV ♡

"Hold it!"

Pagsigaw ko sabay bukas ng pinto. Napahinto naman siya kaagad — in fact, he even looks like he's frozen in place. Humakbang ako papunta sa kanya and I stopped when I'm already a few inches away from him. I glanced over his shoulder and saw the food that Anonymous mentioned.

Ano ba ang sasabihin sa kanya? Should I ask why he's doing this? Kung kamusta ang exams? Should I ask kung bakit siya nandito?

No.

Confirm it first, Han Chaerin.

"Ikaw ba si Anonymous—"

He slowly looked at me.

"—Kim Seokjin?"

A small smile appeared on his face before he totally faced me. He placed his hands inside his hoodie's pocket before slowly shaking his head.

"I'm not your Mr. Anonymous." Pagsagot niya at napabuntong hininga naman ako. I would be lying if I said that I'm not disappointed right now. Akala ko talaga na nahanap ko na siya. Mali pala ako.

"So ano ang ginagawa mo dito?" Tanong ko muli at agad naman siyang sumagot. "I'm here to deliver the food that your Mr. Anonymous sent for you." So he's delivering ithe food in Anonymous' stead? Ganun ba?

"Bakit ikaw kung pwede naman siya nalang mismo maglagay?" Tanong ko muli at lumawak naman ang kanyang ngiti. "The answer's very simple." Simple? Seokjin took a step forward, his tall figure towering over mine. He leaned forward, his face only a few centimeters away from mine.

"He doesn't want to show himself to you."

And with that, he walked pass me but before he could even totally leave me, I grabbed his arm. Napatingin naman siya sa akin sabay taas ng kilay. "Bakit ayaw niyang magpakita sa akin?" Tanong ko muli at "Hmm. Let's just say that he's not ready yet."

Eh?

"Then won't you help me? Pwede mo bang sabihin sa akin kung sino siya? Ako nalang ang lalapit sa kanya." Sabi ko sabay bitaw sa kanya. Seokjin, once again, shook his head. "He'd hold a grudge against me if I do that." So hindi niya ako tutulungan. I pouted before looking down and I heard Seokjin heave a sigh.

"I'll give you two hints." Sabi niya at agad akong napatingin sa kanya. Hints? "Really?" Tanong ko at tumango naman siya. Yes naman! Dalawang hints!

"First, he's someone that I know."

Well, yung barkada niyo ang suspects ko. If hindi ikaw si Anonymous then si Namjoon, Yoongi, at Hoseok nalang ang natitira.

"And second, he's closer to you than you think."
