Chapter 5

It was the same guy I saw before. The same person that came to my school. The person that had my ID.

"What are you staring at?" he asked, looking at me. He had no expression whatsoever. It looked like he was incapable of even cracking a smile.

I looked around me. It was a room with two sofas and a small coffee table. I could still hear the loud music in the background. I was still inside the club.

"Aren't you that girl who punched Taehyung?"

"Me?! No..." I said quickly. "That was my friend, you see. Her brother forgot his lunch so she went to give it to him. Then on the way out, she tripped and I think she hurt your friend by accident."

"It doesn't matter. I don't care about that," he said. ??! He didn't? Then why did he come to my school if it wasn't to avenge his friend?

There was silence.

This time he was the one staring at me. I didn't know exactly what he was looking at. Usually when people are caught staring, they turn away. But not this guy. He just kept on staring.

It seemed like an hour passed.

"Have you been to our school before?"

It wasn't "were you in our school today?" or "did you go to our school?" or "did I see you somewhere?" but no. It was "have you been to our school before?"

"Yes..." I said, looking at him.

It was quiet again. He picked up his cup of...well, I don't know what that is...and took a drink and then set it back down again.

Wait...what am I doing here again?!?!!? Oh yes...my ID...

"Sunbae...can I have my ID back?" I asked, looking at him.

"What ID?"

"The ID that my friend dropped and the one you picked up."

"I didn't pick up any ID."

...

......

...

Huh?

"Then...how did you know my name?" I asked, staring at him.

...

Silence...

...

He leaned back and closed his eyes. Huh? Was he going to answer me? If he didn't have my ID...then who did? Eom Hyeri...you're going to die once I find you...

...

......

...

"I've known you for a while Lee Jieun. The things I still lack are your interest, your birthday, your favorite color, and anything else about you."

...

......

...

WHAT?! Is this guy stalking me? Appppaaaa...

"Um..." I didn't really know what to say. Why would he want to know so much about me anyways? It wasn't like there was anything special about me...

"The only information I know is your name and where you go to school," he said, opening his eyes again.

...

"Why...do you want to know so much about me?" I asked. I tried to stop my voice from shaking but it didn't seem to work. I wonder if I could get out of here. Is that door locked? Would I be able to run for it? Would he catch me?!!?

...

......

...

"Are you uncomfortable around me Lee Jieun?" he asked, leaning forward.

Am I? OF COURSE I AM! Why wouldn't I be...? He knows my name. He knows what school I go to. He wants to kidnap me!!! My father's not rich! He would get nothing out of it...

"I...don't know who you are," I said quietly.

There was a moment of silence.

"I am Jeon Jungkook," he said without blinking. He was starting to scare me. "I go to TaeDo High. I play basketball on my free time, whether I like it or not. I don't like fighting, but now it seems like it's all I can do. My favorite color is green and my birthday is on March 17."

...

......

...

So...the only information I really needed was that he was born in March. That made him older than me, but I think I already knew that. As for the rest of it...WHY DO I NEED THEM FOR?

"Um...okay..." I said, looking away. Did I need to know that?

Silence again...

"Sunbae...I have a question..." I started. It was really bugging me.

"What?"

"Why did you come to my school then...if it wasn't to get revenge?" I asked slowly. I might have sounded stupid but that question was really bugging me.

He took a drink out of his cup. I think I smell alcohol. Was he drinking? Maybe he was drunk...maybe I could slip out of here without getting hurt. Funny how my heart is so calm. I would have thought that it would act up again. But why am I so calm around him?

"Because Lee Jieun...you interest me."
