I was shocked at Taehyung's words. He likes me? Along with Jimin? I couldn't catch my breath as I watched the two argue.
What? The two boys were interrupted by Namjoon. He laughed at them. "A love triangle?" Is this what this is?
I kicked Namjoon hard in the leg. "Shut up." He winced and grasped his leg.
"I got rejected so what's the point of fighting." Oh man. What the heck. Taehyung turned to look at me with wide eyes.
They exited the room. I focused on the textbook in front of me.
"Seems like you're catching attention as soon as you arrive." Namjoon stated as he sat on the chair next to me, rubbing his leg."Ain't too surprised though, you're too pretty."
I glared at him. He was being too ridiculous. I wanted some peace. "Just shut up and leave me alone." I groaned.
He shrugged at my mood, "Okay then."
What? He just left me alone? Just like that? Something's fishy. "Are you planning something?" I asked, looking at him.
"No." he grunted, avoiding eye contact.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes! I'm not planning anything!"
I raised my eyebrows. I don't believe that at all.
I sighed in defeat. Whatever. Who cares.
Today is such a hectic day.
Gathering Jimin and Taehyung's P.E. clothes, I walked around the school looking for them. They won't be fighting, right?
Desperately, I looked around. I heard some bickering near the school office. Following the sounds of laughter, I got to the entrance of the office.
Suddenly, the laughter stopped and there was a loud thud. Surprised, I ran towards the sound...
Taehyung and Jimin lay on the ground, with Taehyung on top. Thry stared at each other.
What is this?! I may be observing I shouldn't have seen! "This isn't what it looks like!"
Looking up, the two boys were already on their feet, with bright red cheeks. I laughed at ther stupidity.
Jimin stared at me as I laughed. I glanced at him. I knew exactly what he was thinking.
How could I be okay after his confession? And rejecting him? What is wrong with this girl?
I knew though...I had to be strong. I won't cry or show my pitiful side. I do not want to be pitied. That's too shameful.
I won't be shattered.
Passing them their uniform, they looked really grateful. Smiling brightly at me, Taehyung thanked me warmly. Jimin, however, gave me bitter looking looks. My heart beat faster.
He was jealous. He looked angry, I noticed his rapid glances at the happy Taehyung who was gushing over how thankful he was.
I was burdened. I cannot accept their love. I cannot accept anyone's love. Love was not a luxury for me. I do not need love.
My mother is the only love I need. She was the one who had my heart. I miss her....
Giving them a quick farewell, I paced away from them. I hoped that their friendship wouldn't get affected by me.
P.E class was hard to focus in.
The teacher explained the rules of volleyball and put us into groups.
Coincidentally, I was somehow put into a group with Jimin, Taehyung and Namjoon.
I groaned in frustration. How could I get put into a group with these three?
The whistle blew and the game started. There was two courts so two teams played while the others watched and learned.
I was put on the same side as Taehyung. He was tall so he helped me cover many of my mistakes.
"Thanks bro!" I slapped his back during the break. He grinned a toothy grin and relplied, "Your welcome. Pay back from earlier today."
We began our second round. I was better this round. I glared at Jimin and aimed the ball at him. This is revenge for telling everyone I rejected you....I paused. Wait what.
I was the one who rejected him. It isn't his fault. I sighed gently and turned the direction of the ball towards Namjoon and slapped it hard.
It hit him hard on the head, causing an impact so great, he fell onto the ground.
"YAH! LEE MINHEE!" he screamed. Jimin and Taehyung immediately reacted, positioning themselves so that Namjoon could not get close to me.
Namjoon glared at them angrily before giving me a death stare. I shivered in fright. Sometimes I wonder where my old best friend went....
He used to be great guy. He was kind, gentle, smart, sporty, considerate...the perfect kind of guy. This kind of guy was my best friend.
Until it happened.
It was like the dark ages for me. I frowned and shook away the thoughts. I did not want to recall anything related to the incident.
I was still deep in my thoughts when suddenly...
"MINHEE!" A shout was echoed in the gym. I turned. A ball was flying towards me in full speed and power. I squeezed my eyes shut as I waited for the hit.
Nothing hit me.
I stood there. Silence surrounded me. Nothing made a sound. I peeked through my eyes and gasped.
Lying on the ground was Jimin.The ball had collided in with his head. I leaned down on the ground and shook him. He didn't respond.
"Jimin........." My voice shook. Taehyung stood next to me, eyes wide, mouth agape.
"Take him to the nurse!"
Shaking, I held his hand as he slept on the bed. This is all my fault. He put himself in risk because of me. I sobbed. Tears fell and dropped on his arm.
I felt a squeeze. Through tears, I saw his eyes flutter open.
Dazed, he stared at me. He opened his mouth slightly. "Looking at you like this is like dream." he sighed. "Am I dreaming?"
"No, you idiot. This isn't a dream."
"Ahh...if this is a dream, I hope I never wake up." he smiled.
"Stop scaring me!" Tears began to fall again.
He held my hands tightly. "Minhee...you know...I really do love you. I don't expect you to love me back but...please give it some thought. I'm begging you.."
"I will...I will..." I gasped through my hiccups. He nodded slighly before nodding back to sleep.
I stroked his smooth black hair as he slept. He looks so handsome...
"I don't expect you to love me back but...please give it some thought. I'm begging you." His eyes were pleading, I felt if I didn't accept, I would melt from the intension.
But if only he knew...Park Jimin. I love you too! My heart soars at the sight of you, playing little melodies of it's own, singing beautiful tunes of love.
I have my reasons though...you broke through the barriers around my heart but I cannot give my heart to you, it has been damaged too much. Your love cannot be accepted. My feelings have to be concealed...forever.
Park Jimin...I love you...
