Strange Hearts || Heeseung

"If you should ask again if you are dead, no this time not again"

Slowly Yuju opened her eyes, she felt weak, even very weak, as if a huge and heavy stone were lying on top of her. The view was not clear, so it took a few minutes to see well.

After these few minutes she sat down carefully, she was in a hospital room and next to her stood her doctor, who sadly cleared his throat:

"Yuju, you almost died if you hadn't been brought here in time. Once your heart stopped beating two seconds ago and we thought we lost you. In case you don't know, it's already Saturday and you fell yesterday. Why did you join the gym class, I told you not to?"

Yuju took a deep breath, her head hurt and she felt guilty, but it wasn't entirely her fault, was it?

"We had another teacher in sports and he forced me to close with," she mumbled and looked at her feet.

"Then one must speak with him a serious word! You'd better stay here until tomorrow, on Monday you can go back to school if you feel good," said Mr. Yes, and was about to leave the room until he remembered that he wanted to say something else:

"Honestly, I don't know why you're still alive. When you were a few months old and I calculated how long you will probably live, I misjudged. You should have been dead for 4 years already, fate must be on your side", he laughed and disappeared from the room.

Yuju pulled her feet to herself and grabbed them, she should have died 4 years ago but somehow it didn't happen. She is still alive and her heart has not yet given up, perhaps fate is really on her side?

Suddenly, Yuju remembered that her picture was supposed to be uploaded somewhere in the gym class yesterday. She reached for her cell phone, which was on the bedside table next to her and opened the school website.

She scrolled through the website but found no picture of her, looking through everything, even on the page where the college was shown. Why wasn't there a picture of her?

Suddenly the door opened and Yuju fell to the ground in terror and made acquaintance with him. She gave a painful "ouch" and looked at the person in front of her.

From the ground he looked even bigger than usual, he had his usual black clothes when they met after school. His expression was cold and dominant, he knelt down to Yuju and her heart started beating faster at the sight of his eyes.

"Hey, invisible girl," he laughed and his cold face turned to a smiling one. Yuju understood absolutely nothing, so she was picked up from the floor and put on her bed. Astonished she watched Heeseung, who took a chair and sat down in front of her.

"What are you doing here?" asked Yuju stutteringly, not coming here to bully her anymore?

"Spend time with you, by the way you look terrible."

Quickly, Yuju took out her phone and opened the camera app to see her face, her hair was all tangled up. She threw her phone away and tried to straighten her hair with her hands until Heeseung woke up her hands off her head.

"You're cute," he said, smiling at Yuju, who gave a hesitant smile back and leaned back.

"Yuju?"

She felt her heart warm again, and it's the second time that it has called her by her name. As soon as he utters her name, his heart beats fast without pain.

He cleared his throat and looked deep into her eyes. This time she saw remorse and sadness in his eyes, which he would probably justify the same.

"I'm sorry for what I did, I didn't want to hurt you, but I managed it somehow. I'm also sorry that I dragged you into all this, I hope you can forgive me," he looked at her nervously.

Yuju nodded and gave him a smile; somehow she wanted to hear that apology from him.

"What have you got?" he asked, Yuju's mine changed and she looked at her hands.

"You fainted yesterday in sports, but not as it is normal but you sweated and trembled and looked like you were completely about to die," he said worried.

"I am...." Yuju paused, why would she tell him? Would he continue to bully her?

He got up and went to the door, turned back to her and saw her:

"I understand, you don't have to tell me why", he turned around and disappeared from the room.

Yuju lay down on her side and thought, and Heeseung was the first one who had spoken to her. She ignored the thing for, but he had done it; was it a sign that she could trust him?

"No," Yuju grumbled and turned to the other side.
