012. Too Close

——————————————————

M I N A ' S

I was looking for a place where I can be alone, so I immediately run to the rooftop. It's been long, staying at this school. Well, nothing's new. The rule is still alive which separate every girls and boys. I sighed while walking towards the railings, letting the air welcome my senses. Few minutes and classes will start again, it's not a hard thing for me, it's my specialty nevertheless.

Closing my eyes, gasping some air, feeling the environment before me. Me and Jun is still on some blind date, we weren't placing any meaning between our dates, my friends and his never knew something about that also.


"Are you trying to jump over there?"




Someone said behind me, which cause me to immediately open my eyes. I already knew the voice, it's deep and stern. I look over my shoulder, rolling my eyes heavenwards. I saw him standing beside the door, with his usual looks.

He's wearing his school uniform, two buttons left unattached, tie loosely hanged on his neck. His hair was also messy. I moved my feet to face him with a blank expression.

"I don't wish to die." I said with a straight face. Crossing my arms while raising my brows at him. "I guess you're just the one wishing me dead. Tsk."

He scoff before walking towards my direction. He leaned onto the railings, probably a meter away from me. I looked at him, he was staring at nowhere or probably just spacing out. I was staring at him, unconcern if he'll think I'm checking him out. I was just observing him, he looks weird, I don't mean by how he clothe. It's the way he acts.

He deeply sighed, which got my brows knotted. I never diverted my attention away from him. He care less though, he didn't mind if someone stares at him like what I am doing right now. He turn his head to look at me, I doesn't look surprised, I was anticipating to get caught though.




"Will you stop staring at me?"


"Why?" I replied immediately while we're looking eyes to eyes. I'm challenging him, both of us weren't looking away nevertheless.

"What's wrong with you?" He asked still staring at my eyes. The corner of my lips quirk up, while tilting my head on the side.



"I want to end everything."





After saying that, he abruptly look away from me. I hid my smile, he looked affected. I was referring to end everything, my dad's manipulation with my life. I want to end that and live freely. I wanted to fly high without them controlling me. I wanted to discover new things beyond the world that I am used to.

I was about to walk away since talking with him is nonsense, but he suddenly slumped on the floor. I watched him covering his face. Through slight concern and conscience, I run to him, bending my knees to even our heights.

"Yah! What's wrong with you?" I asked while tapping his shoulders. He looked up to me, his eyes were bloodshot. My eyes widened, is he about to cry? Did I make him cry?
