Chapter 29 {Edited}

Jessica Choi's POV

-after three weeks-

Its been three weeks since my birthday.
And well, there's nothing bad that happened in the past days, just happy thoughts.

I cant really believe the fact that Kris is courting me now. I mean, is it just my imagination?

"Pancake again?" I looked at Anne.

"Why? Something wrong?" I asked but she just shrugged and sat on the counter.

"You know if I were you, I'll help on cooking." I said while taking out a pancake out of the pan. Oh well. I still have plenty more.

After that she stood up and came beside me while laughing.

···

Why is it that when I walk past the classrooms, I hear murmurs and when I look at them, they just look at me amd shut their mouths off?

I got a bad feeling for this day. I mean, dejavu. I got instinct that this wouldnt be a good day that I need to back off. Hmm. This is so strange.

"Hey. You're a hot topic this time." A girl said to me.

Hot topic? About?

"What do you mean?" I giggled but deep inside, I feel uncomfortable. What h0t topic is she talking about?

"Haven't you heard? Girl, Mieun is really pissed when he sees you with Kris. And she and Kris dated before."

"Sorry for her being a motormouth. Bye!" Another girl dragged her and they went away.

But wait. Kris and Mieun dated before? Have I heard it clearly? I didnt expected. All I know is Mieun likes him. And he promised me that he wont hide anything.

Aish Jessica. Your instinct is correct.

With thoughts bothering around my head, I didnt thought that Im on our room now. But, Kris and Mieun are the only ones here.  Should I go inside or na? It's awkward.

"Why are you silent?" Mieun looked at Kris but Kris just looked away and ignored her.

"Come on Kris. Talk to me. Talk to me as if nothing happened between you and me. Why are you acting like that?"

Talk to me as if nothing happened between you and me.

Talk to me as if nothing happened between you and me.

Talk to me as if nothing happened between you and me.

What I heard with the girl a while ago is true. The fuck.

What Mieun said is repeating on my head making me weaker and fall down on my knees.

"Nothing happened between me and you Mieun. Listen, you dont have to be like that, you dont have to act like that."

My body wants to go away but I cant move. I cant even imagine this is happening.

There's more. Keep calm Jessica.

"Tell me. Am I that hard to love? I did everything." I took a peek at them but avoiding to make sounds. I dont know but I've been hurt but how can I withstand this?  "Everything, for you to notice me. Haven't you liked me even in just a second? Havent you noticed me even just for once?" Mieun stepped closer to Kris.

"Stop Mieun. No. I didnt. Dont push yourself. You deserve someone. That someone is not me." Kris stood up and walked but Mieun held his wrist that made him stop.

"I've been here since God-knows-when but you havent noticed me. Yeah we dated but that's just forced. How about Jessica? She's just new here and you liked her already?! You're so unfair Kris! You're so unfair." Mieun exclaimed as tears slide down her eyes.

I heard my name! Not me. Dont include me.

"I noticed you Mieun, but in a different way." Kris said calmly and walked as Mieun tried to KISS HIM!!!

Their lips are connected but then Kris gently moved backwards. "No. This is wrong." He said.

They kissed.

As soon as I saw Kris walking, I moved to different direction for him not to know that I heard them.

But I was too late. "Jessica?"

I didnt looked back as I continuously wipe the tears streaming down my face. Why am I so sensitive?

"Jessica." I heard his footsteps coming near me. I gave out a long sigh as I faced him with a smile. A fake one. "Hi." I said but my voice cracked.

He looked away with closed eyes.

Why do I feel really hurt? It's just a conversation? But full of revelation.

"Kris..."

"You heard all of it?" He looked at me with sad eyes. Slowly, I nodded.

"Oh, you're here." Mieun came to my side as I ignored her. "Mieun, not in here." Kris said.

"Are you afraid that she might know?"

Oh God. Can I pull her hair just once? Hanbonman jebal. She's a nagger. No. I cant control it anymore. Im turning into a motormouth again. I want to say this, she's irritating. I cant keep calm when I see her. My hand is itchy.

"I already know." I weakly said as I look down. "Jess..." I looked up at Kris but then, Suddenly, I started running away from both  of them.

I just want to calm myself.
