Knowing Ms. Know-it-all (TXT Taehyun X Female OC X Enhypen Jay)

Ch. 43: The Burning of the School Witch

Probably should have been doing this since the first chapter but I only realized I should have started doing this since late last year for some reason... Anyways!

‼️Tw‼️: Bullying

...

The next morning, when Jay decided to go to the school's dance room first thing in the morning, he ends up being bombarded straight up by Riki with a bunch of questions and the younger's boy's phone in his face.

"Hyung! Hyung! Have you seen these?! The kids at our school actually found some dirt on Go Jinhee!"

Jay grimaces at the sudden attack, and after his junior finishes talking, he slowly pushes the younger boy's hand away as he replies. "I... saw..."

Riki doesn't seem at all bothered by the older boy pushing his hand away, though, since he seems way too preoccupied about the news displayed on his phone. "Isn't this crazy?! After so long that people couldn't do anything about her because her past was always such a mystery, all of a sudden they found something because she slipped!"

Jay doesn't respond. He only purses his lips as he walks to the benches and places his bag there. Somethinh's definitely bothering him, but he's unsure about whether or not he should mention it.

And then Riki asks another question: "Hey, hyung... Is Heejin-noona aware of this?"

Jay turns to the younger boy as a frown forms on his face, and Riki's brows rise as he notices the visible troubled expression on his senior's face. "... Well, I'm definitely gonna have to hope she did... Cause the comments are really disturbing me."

"Motherless b*tch!"

"You deserve to die just like your mom!"

"No wonder you're like that."

"Why don't you just die like your mother did?!"

Heejin looks down at all the things written on Jinhee's desk with an unreadable expression on her face. With her arms crossed, she seems to be deep in thought as she reads the horrible things written, one by one, all while her classmates are keeping a visible distance from her lest she gets mad at them again.

But she doesn't. Not especially when Jinhee suddenly enters the classroom and she suddenly meets eyes with Heejin.

That's the first thing Jinhee sees upon entering the classroom - Heejin's calculating eyes - before she looks down and sees her vandalized desk and all the things written on it. Her eyes widen and she freezes, before she quickly tries to regain her composure before she looks back up at Heejin. "You... What are you doing near my desk?"

Heejin remains silent as she watches Jinhee's eyes, before she gives a brief response. "... Reading."

"Well, I'm pretty sure the things you're reading aren't even for you," Jinhee replies, her eyes almost narrowing to a glare, before she drops her bag on her desk, covering the writings. "And class is about to start. Shouldn't the know-it-all be at her desk already with how much she follows the rules?"

"... Suit yourself," Heejin eventually replies, before she turns and walks back to her desk where Taehyun is at his seat waiting for her and Jay had just arrived.

"What was that about?" Jay asks Heejin as she reaches them.

"They've already begun," Heejin replies, before she takes her seat and Taehyun turns to talk to her.
