My High School Teacher || Woo Do Hwan

chapter 26

I'd been sitting on the white sand for a few minutes, but there was no sign of Do Hwan.

I didn't want to go back inside since its suffocating me and i have no idea what to do in there. Now that i'm quite bored, i stretched my arm into my pocket and searched for my phone.

Ah dang it. I must have left it in his house

I let out a sigh and gave up. I got up slowly and went inside to get my phone.

He wasn't in the living room when I walked in. Maybe he's upstairs, I thought as I shrugged my shoulders.

I began hunting for my phone on the couch, but it was nowhere to be found. Then I went to the kitchen, but it was still missing. My phone was still missing after I searched everywhere where I went last night.

"i remember texting my aunt in the living room. How come its not here?"

I became irritated and walked upstairs to inquire of Do Hwan. I went to knock on his door, but no one answered. I knocked again, and was taken aback when he abruptly opened the door, displaying a topless Woo Do Hwan.

I flinched on the spot and covered my eyes hurriedly, "lime juice!"

I stuttered. I couldn't think of anything else to say at the time, so I just said whatever came to mind. I'm sure I added to the awkwardness.

"what are you doing?" i could hear him letting out a small laugh.

When he noticed I hadn't moved in my spot, he shut the door as if I were a statue. I sighed in discomfort as I carefully took my palms away from my face.

It feels really illegal when i just randomly see him half naked, and its making me so uncomfortable.

Seconds later the door once again opened. Finally he changed into his clothes.

I offered him a hesitant grin and motioned for him to follow me down the stairs. As I walked down the stairwell, I faltered in my steps, still thinking about what had transpired just a minute before. I clutched the railings fiercely in the hopes of not rolling down and killing myself.

I could sense Do Hwan's presence in the background, watching me become uncomfortable. I bit my bottom lip as I took the final step, cheering silently.

Finally, I was be able to arrive safely on the ground.

"Why did you come to see me upstairs?" He suddenly stated, causing me to flinch.

I looked at him blankly, forgetting why I was there. My pupils began to dance, staring at everything: his furniture, my feet, the open window, and him.

I cleared my throat, trying to remember why I had come to meet him in the first place. But before I could respond, he reached into his pocket and lifted a small device into the air with his palm.

"You're looking for this?"

He shook my phone in the air, and I instantly nodded. He graciously handed it to me without taunting me or any other pervert behavior. As a result, I gladly accepted it from him without inquiry.

"I grabbed the wrong phone, sorry." He said before turning his back at me.

I was kind of skeptical to his sudden change of behavior. I mean, why was he so kind and even said sorry. But I was more concerned about me. Why am I even worried, isn't it for the better that he's being nice?

I looked at him walking to the living room with my mouth dropped. I guess I'm not used to this side of him, it is... weird.

But I shook off my silly thoughts and gladly accompanied him to the couch. My battery had died, and all I could do was sit awkwardly and fiddle with my fingers. Do Hwan was sighing loudly because he was as well doing nothing.

"So," he started.

"Why don't we have fun?"

I was taken aback by his statements. I had no idea what he was talking about until he grabbed my arm and took me outdoors. When our feet came into contact with the scorching sun, we exchanged glances, as if we were thinking the same thing.

Should I wear some slippers?

"Let's have fun in the water!" He exclaimed, grabbing me with him.

Do Hwan had let me borrow his checkered pants, and they were now soaking in the water. I didn't intend to get wet today, but screw it.

I followed him to the deep part of the sea, getting completely saturated with my hair dangling behind me. I'm not a professional swimmer, but I can float, so I'm guessing I won't die if something horrible happens.

When my toes were barely touching the ground, I grasp onto his arm, pondering life decisions. I guess I'm not going to make it out alive.

He left out a giggle, looking at me being pathetic. I turned my head, avoiding him to stare in my horrible face.

I wanted to leave and move to the part where I could stand properly and not drown, but I can't move an inch because I don't know how to swim, and Do Hwan was having a good time strolling away while I hugged him from behind.

"Let's go back." I said in horror.

"Don't worry you're not gonna die. Just hold on to me."

I wasn't buying his words and was still terrified. My eyes began to scan the area, hoping to see if there was any kind of shark or piranha lurking nearby, but there was none.

A sigh of relief escaped my lips as I looked down. But then a horrifying expression appeared on my face when I realized I was wearing a white shirt. My eyes widened and I could feel my cheeks heating up, but thankfully he wasn't looking.

A part of me wished to leave, while another part of me wished to remain.

"Okay, I guess it's time for us to go back."

His statements made me feel frightened. I opened my mouth to speak a few words but couldn't get them out, so I left it open as he turned to face the land.

The more steps he take, the more I got worried.

"Why are you so quiet? Is there something wrong?" he said, concerned.

"Everything's alright," I assured him that I was fine despite the fact that I was screaming and crying deep inside.

I don't feel compelled to tell him that I'm wearing his white shirt and that he will be able to view my body through it, humiliating me forever. I tried my hardest to come up with another way out of this situation, but I gave up and lay my head on his shoulder.

Please swallow me earth.

The moment my toes touched the ground, I hurriedly stood up and bended my knees, enough to cover my whole body with water. He looked at me in a confuse way and stood there with knitted brows.

"What are you even doing?"

"Uhh, nothing! You should go ahead, I'll be right here," I motioned him to go first.

"Okay, I'll just fetch some towel," He said before facing his back at me.

My chest felt less heavy and finally I could breathe in peace. I watched him slowly walking towards the sand, and I freely stood up, revealing my soaked body.

"Oh, anyway," He turned to face me once again which made me froze on the spot.

I'm doomed.
