Meant To Be | Lee Felix

she who is mine | part 13

________FELIX'S POV_______

I didn't realise I zoned out until the beat of music in background drops; gathering me away from the clouds in my mind. It's a habit- of zoning out; usually happens when I think to much.
It's a coping mechanism that prevents my nuts to open apart nad explode.
Zoning out is my escape; just like Chae is. I mean- was.

All the while throughout the entire class, I have been trying to not look at the angel across the room.
But it's quite impossible when her light is so blinding.

And oh man, I love catching her looking at me.

Suddenly there's some chaos in the class when people's phones chime. Mine just died.
I am not really into the GCs of the college; just for namesake- am a participant.

Chae is staring at her phone for too long. I can't make out her expression but I swear on Stray Kids I see her hands trembling.

Her head slowly lifts and her eyes scan people around here. I follow her gaze and find people on phones giving her queer looks.
I land my eyes back onto her only to find them burning for hers are tearing.

She bolts up and without looking back, gets out of the dance room. The sub teachers yells behind for her but she just left.
Wtf just happened?

Without hesitation, I lean to a boy next to me and ask if he could lend me his phone for a moment. He is startled because yeah ofcourse am not allowed to speak to anyone without real purpose. Well, fuck it. I broke that rule ages ago.

He hands me his phone. I can't believe this is the same person who has muted all the GCs of Yonsei University. Can't blame me wither because this is Chae in context. What made her feel so hard that she walked out of the class?

Now I get it. I feel the same after seeing the video that is shared just now. Infact, I have this urge to burn down the entire college at this point.

My mouth goes dry and I can feel thrones prickling in my eyes.

They're hitting her.
She who is mine.
They're spitting at her.
She who is mine.
They're smashing her against the ground.
She who is mine.
They're chanting insults for her.
She who is mine.

My jaw turns stone. I don't care if I break the phone with the grip. People are laughing, giggling and murmuring like they see a funny movie.

"Oh my god, that's Chae-ryo, isn't she?"
"Look how she's whimpering!"
"Pity her!"
"Chae-ryo kinda looks hot like this..."
"I think we should upload this online-"

"SHUT THE FUCK UP"

The phone goes flying into the mirror. Everything goes silent. All of those filthy mouths clamp shut. If only looks could kill, half the class would be rotten meat by now.

I breathe heavily, but there's not enough air on Earth.
"Mstr. Lee, are you alright?" The sub asks. Her voice rings in my ears bringing me to reality.
I gulp all the rage in me, students look scared- they should be for they don't know who they've messed with.

"Can I use the restroom, please." I almost forget to add the please. And I kinda made it sound imperative.
I don't even bother to see if she allowed me to leave or not, I walk out quickly.

I take the phone out of my pocket and curse myself for not charging the battery enough. Well, there's a person who'd help me.

"Mr. Twae? How have you been doing?"
The elderly man bends and greets me even though he shouldn't- "Never better, Yongbok-ssi"

"Can I use the charger pin in the cabin, please? It's urgent." "Sure, sure, young man. All yours."

I plug it in and pace around. All the patience in my body has washed out. Where could you be, Chae?
"Must be the girl, isn't it?"
