DEADLOCK [XH]

storm, maths

"Here we are. Grab something, whatever you want"
We sat down to a table in running sushi
"How does it work here?"
I asked. I never was in a restaurant like that
"See. I like this sushi, do i open this glass and grab it. What do you like? I'll grab you that"
"I don't know... I never was somewhere like this"
"Okay. Try this"
He passed me his meal. I tried it
"No. Something without fish"
"There is vegetarian sushi, or with meat. But that's not sushi, that's gimbab"
"Oh, gimbab.... My grandma always served me that"
I remembered her. He opened the glass again and grabbed some gimbab
"Thanks"
We started eating. I ate like, four and I was full already
"Already full?"
Ms Kwak asked me. I nodded
"Do you want to take the rest home?"
I nodded and lied on Jiseok's shoulder
"Okay. We can go now"
She grabbed the rest, payed and we went back home
"Tomorrow is school, so go prepare your things"
She smiled and went to the kitchen
" I'll be sleeping in my room now. Good right"
I said and went to my room after I washed up. I was tired, so I immediately fell asleep
" Jooyeon-ah...... Jooyeon-ah"
Someone shook my shoulder. I opened my eyes, the lamp was lighted"
I woke up to see Jiseok with a teary face
"What happened ?"
I sat on the bed and hugged him around his eaustr . Then I heard it. Thunder, and then lightning.
"shh~ I'm here"
"Can I...... Can I sleep with you? "
He asked quietly. I nodded and moved so he can lie next to me. he lied, and hugged me tightly. I smiled and fell asleep again
"Jooyeon-ah, wake up"
I opened my eyes
"We'll be late"
I sighed and got up
"It's still a storm outside... I don't want to"
I said while looking out of the window
"Hm. But we still have to go"
I sighed again and slowly got to the closet
"I'll take this"
He took one of my t-shirts and ran to his room. I didn't have any energy to catch him, it was morning. I dressed up, and went to his room
"You stole my T-shirt!"
I jumped on his back
"Heyyyyy!"
He screamed
"Quiet! Let's go to school"
I hit his shoulder to be quiet
"Let me just finish this"
I remembered I should put on some corrector because of the dark circles under my eyes again
"Okay. Ten minutes and then we'll go"
I went back and put the corrector on
"We can gooo~"
He came to my room
"Yeah, let me just..."
I blended the corrector a little bit and put it back
"We can go now"
"What is that?"
He pointed at the corrector
"That's corrector"
"And.... What is it doing?"
"It covers up pimples, or circles under eyes"
He nodded
"We should go now"
I agreed and we went on the bus
"Why do you use it anyways?"
We sat on two  empty seats
"It's just.... I don't sleep much at night"
I sighed and leant on his shoulder
"Why?"
"I don't know.... I just..... It's not I am scared, but also not comfortable... . I don't know"
"I can't sleep when it's storm outside"
"We have to go"
We stepped out of the bus before it could drive away
"Just go and don't ask more questions"
I started running so I won't be late
"Wait!"
He ran after me. I got there at the time, he did too but I was there earlier
"Okay class. We'll start with the presentations. Is there anyone who wants to go first?"
It was relly long class.
"Jooyeon? Jiseok? Gunil? You don't have it?"
We shook our heads
"Tommorow"
It was very long day.
"Thank god it's lunch time already"
I sighed and went to sit to a table I always sit. No one around.
"Can I sit with you?"
Jiseok asked me
"Yeah"
I smiled. As he sat down, the other kids were pointing at us
"What's you problem?"
Jiseok stood up and shouted at them
"Leave them be"
I stood up and made him sit by pulling down his sleeve. I picked up my lunch and went to throw it. I lost my appetite
"Watch out!"
Someone shouted and made trip over his food. They started laughing. I stood up and just sadly went to the bathroom
"Jooyeon-ah"
He ran to me and grabbed my shoulder
"No. Leave it be. It's nothing"
"Ni it's not! They are bullying you!"
"I know"
I frustratingly pulled my hair
"Don't. They are destroying you"
He hugged me
"It's okay"
"No it's not. We're going home"
He grabbed my hand
"Where is your bag?"
"Nowhere, I am not going"
He sighed and lifted me
"Put me down. I have two more classes"
"No. We're going home. Tell ne where is your back or we're going without it"
"No! Put me down!"
I started hitting him to put me down
"Hey? Put him down"
Some guy showed up.
"No. I can't. We're going home"
"Isn't it obvious that he doesn't want to?"
He helped me on my own feet
"What's you relationship anyway? You can't just grab someone and go home"
"He's my... Roomate"
"But it's not different. If he doesn't want to, you can't force him to something"
"You don't know the story...."
"Just leave me alone. I don't feel good, I'll go to class"
They both sighed and let me go
"What's your name"
That guy ran to me
"Jooyeon"
I said with no interest
"Nice to meet you. I am Gunil. "What class do you have now?"
"Maths"
I sped up my steps
"Okay, I'll go by myself"
He sighed anclassrooo another classroom. I didn't mean it bad. I just didn't have mood to talk
"Jooyeon! Are you here?"
The teacher came to me because I was diving in my own thoughts
"Yes... I am sorry"
"Do you want to go to the nurse? You don't look twice good"
"No. It's okay"
Teacher nodded and continued talking about the subject
