Remember me || JHS ||

6.

 When I turn around I look into a face on which a smile lies that looks like a sunshine.

It's the crazy guy who just hugged me out of the blue on the university campus today.

I take a step away from him, which means that his hand is no longer on my shoulder.

His smile drops a little and he looks sad, but why should that concern me.

"Hey Yn, it's good to see you again today."

I give him a skeptical look "are you stalking me or what, why are you here?" The question sounds harsher than I intended and I'm almost a little sorry.

His eyes widen and he raises his hands defensively. "What, no! I mean sorry if it comes across that way. I work here and I just got off work."

I nod slightly and want to turn away from him but he holds onto my arm.

"Yn wait a minute, I want to talk to you. You've changed, what's wrong with you?"

I grab his wrist with my free hand and release his hand from my arm.

A frustrated sigh leaves my lips "Look, I'm really sorry but I don't fucking know who you are. So please just leave me alone." He looks at me a little shocked and is about to say something but I interrupt him. "I don't know who you think I am but I don't know you and I don't want to. Honestly, I feel weird around you."

With these words I turn around and already want to start running but again he holds me back by the arm.

Annoyed, I turn around but he just smiles at me and pushes a transparent umbrella into my hand before he turns around and runs the opposite direction.

I stare after him and feel bad when I think of his hurt expression. I mean he actually seems nice enough.

I shake my head slightly to get his face out of my thoughts, lift the umbrella over my head and head towards my apartment.

At home I put the umbrella in a corner next to my door and let myself fall on my sofa.

I grab my phone from my pocket and type a message to Soo Hyun.

I wait a few seconds before I throw my phone on my desk and get up to put on something more comfortable.

After changing my clothes, I drop back onto my couch, pull a blanket over my legs and turn on the TV.

A glance at the clock on one of my dressers tells me that I still have three hours before I should go to bed.

So I turn on a drama and let my head fall comfortably on one of the many pillows.

-

A loud bang brings me out of my sleep. Startled and somewhat confused, I look around.

I realize that I must have fallen asleep on the couch and left the TV on, from which the loud bang also came.

I try to read the time from the alarm clock, it's at two. I turn off the TV and trot down the hall to my room with heavy eyelids and half-open eyes.

I reach for my door handle but miss it the first time, which makes me groan in annoyance.

I let myself fall head first onto my bed and don't even bother to snuggle under the covers.

-

Once again my beloved sleep is interrupted, but this time by the annoying thing that stands next to my bed.

With my eyes still closed, I grope for the off switch on my alarm clock, when I finally find it and stop the annoying noise, I let my head fall back into my warm and soft pillows.

After ten minutes, I force myself to get up after all. With shuffling steps, I creep into my bathroom and splash ice cold water on my face.

Sounds brutal, doesn't it? But it's the only way I wake up in the morning. I've tested it, if I don't do it, it takes me five hours to really wake up.

I quickly prepare breakfast and after I have finished eating, I make my way to the university.

I'm just standing at a traffic light and wait until it turns green, when I notice someone standing next to me.

I ignore it, but soon realize that he is staring at me, which makes me feel uncomfortable.

I look at him with a raised eyebrow and wait for him to say something.

While I wait, I eye him briefly.

The only thing I could say is that he is rather short but really handsome.

He finally seems to be pulled out of his thoughts and answers my silent question.

"Oh, sorry. I didn't mean to stare at you but your face looks so familiar. Have we met before?" he asks.

Oh no, not another one of those! "No. I think you have me confused." I've been saying that a little too often lately.

"Yeah, that'll be it." He seems to drift off with his thoughts again before giving me a beautiful eye smile.

As the light turns green, he walks off while I'm still staring after him.

What is it with people lately?

Arriving in front of the school, I see Mi Cha and Soo Hyung walking side by side from a distance. I quicken my pace and catch up with the two.

"Good morning you two" I give them a bright smile. "What are you doing here so early?"

"Morning baby, I have class right now and when I was on my way here, I ran into Mi Cha." "And I'm on my way to the library. I have to do some research for my project."

"Perfect, then let us walk together."

Arriving at my lecture room, I have to realize that almost all seats are already taken so I have to sit down in one of the back rows.

Shortly after me, the professor also enters the room and everyone is immediately silent.

Time passes faster than expected and we are almost at the end when our professor announces something.

"You are going to work on a group paper, it has to be handed to me in two months."

Immediately the others start whispering.

"Quiet! I've already divided the groups, there will be mixed first and second year students, you are not allowed to switch partners, you must learn to get along with people you don't necessarily know or like. Got it?"

The students agree and with that a list of names appears on the board.

I look for my group and find them, but I also notice the name that is right next to mine. I know it because Mi Cha mentioned it. Great, this could be fun.
