Gulf's POV

------------------------------------

Since I got approached by that senior, I've never had a quiet day as he kept following me and talking to me even though I keep ignoring him and pushing him away from me, I keep getting irritated and annoyed whenever he appears as I try my best to keep my distance from him so he won't notice my eye contacts.

By the end of the week, I decided to finish my project in the library yet I dozed off and when I woke up I found that it was past 8 and half, I walked outside enjoying the fresh little cold air, suddenly I felt some dust going into my eyes so I quickly took off the eye contacts and rubbed them, it's rare for me to get this chance of taking my eye contacts outside, I'm lucky that it's really late and there is no one around

I stood gazing up the clear night sky, I felt so calm and peaceful admiring the few scattered stars above me never noticing that someone was approaching me, by the time I saw him, he was already standing a few steps away from me, I was shocked to see the senior, our eyes met and he looked scared and frozen, I actually forgot for a moment that I took of my eye lens yet after seeing his expressions I quickly remembered and turned around wearing them back in a hurry

Honestly I was ready to see him falling down looking terrified, calling me a monster and running away, I was stunned when he stayed calm and even told me to join in his club, he did threaten me leaving me no choice, I don't want anyone else to find out my secret, I worked hard to attend this university, I can't afford to move somewhere else and cause troubles for my father

I spent the weekend trying to think of a way to make him give up on making me join his club while keeping my secret yet I could find any, I really don't want to have any contact with others, one small mistake and my life is over, On Monday just when I parked my car, he jumped right in front me holding a paper smiling widely and looking proud as if he accomplished an amazing thing

"good morning Gulf, please sign this now so we can start arranging our club room" I sighed in annoyance, I can never get along with someone like him, just because he is older, he thinks he can do whatever he wants with me, I angrily signed the paper and left without uttering a single word yet he caught up with his stupid smile

"let's get along from now on" he snatched my phone from my hand putting his number and calling his phone

"when we are ready, I will contact you, make sure to answer your phone or I will come to your faculty" he said giving my phone back

"see you around!" he said running away happily, I wish I was seen by anyone else, my life is getting messier because of him, it's all because of those eyes I got

I was born with red eyes, my uncle told me that everyone were shocked, even the doctor got terrified and the nurses avoided taking care of me, I can't blame them, anyone would be like that after seeing a scary thing, my grandfather explained to me that it's smth that ran into my father's family, according to him an ancestor from centuries ago caught some kind of illness that affected his eyes' color that turned red and it became hereditary yet unpredictable, that men's children were born normal as well as his grandchildren yet two of his great-grandchildren who happened to be twins were born with red eyes

I'm sure they had it so hard back then, just like in the movies, only monsters and evil beings get red eyes, when I was a kid seeing how my family and relatives were fine with me made me confident yet as soon as I started attending kindergarten, I noticed the looks of everyone else, even the teacher didn't want to talk to me and by primary school I started getting bullied and hated by everyone from classmates to teachers, I got kicked and pushed around, they threw trash and rocks at me, being called 'monster' all the time
