Skool Luv Affair

Chapter 27

Chae Seon Ra

With this new information weighing heavy on my heart, I look for Taehyung. We are leaving for school today, in like few minutes. I am all packed. Lost in my thoughts, I bump into Dong Wook. I am so dumb seriously.

He helps me regain my balance but his hands stay a minute too long on my arms. So long, that I have to break free and a mutter a "thanks" before leaving.

"Mark my words Seon Ra, I will make you mine, I will. That jerk will never have you.", he says.

"As long as I remain sane, I will never let that happen. I will never leave him. Not for you or anyone, so you mark my words!", I say threateningly before leaving.

What is wrong with him!? Why is he acting like an obsessed person!? I am not a thing to be owned and it is about damn time I put him in his place.

I eventually find Taehyung. I am so pissed at Dong Wook. But with the recent developments, I am not even concerned with him. I wish life came with an instruction manual.

"Seon Ra? Are you listening to me?", says Taehyung.

I got lost in my thoughts. Again.

"Are you okay? You know you can tell me everything, right?", he asks.

I wish that was the case but some things need to be sorted by me only, but I don't want to look like I am hiding something so I tell him about what happened with Dong Wook

"That jerk! I will kill him!", he says growing angrier by the second.

"It's okay. He will get over it. I know him since quite long, he isn't like this. Once he wins the battles in his mind, he will be back to his good old self.", I say realizing that I don't believe these words. The look in Dong Wook's eyes every time he sees me... he is not the same person I know, or should I say knew?

"You trust him too much. But I trust you so I will give that jerk one last chance.", he says crossing his arms.

"Can we not sit together today?", I ask.

"Why?", he asks looking really hurt.

"I don't want to provoke/hurt Dong Wook any more than I have.", I say but it's a lie. Dong Wook is not the reason I am doing this; I just need to sort some things.

I hate to hurt him. I really do.

Kim Taehyung

This girl doesn't even know how to lie properly. I can see that something else is going on with her. I hope she tells me when she is ready. But even if it's a lie, it hurts, it really does. Why does she have to bring that jerk up so often? Why do I have to think about him? I mean I get her, but I don't. I am so confused.

She's constantly rubbing her hands together, she is nervous. I know there is something more going on. And it hurts to realize she doesn't trust me enough yet to tell me.

So, I just give her a small smile and say, "See you then!".

She grabs my sleeve before I leave and says, "Don't hate me. Give me just a little time."

This girl.

If she can't trust me, it is not actually her fault but mine. I am not trustworthy enough.

"I couldn't hate you even if I tried Seon Ra and I already promised that I'd always wait for you. We have forever, remember?", I say with a convincing smile.

She just gives me a small smile but the look in her eyes says that we might not have forever after all.

I just make my way to the bus and sit with Jungkooka so Seon Ra can have her two seats.
