Colors

II : Window

I felt suffocated by all the memories that suddenly flooded my head. I came to realize that I wasn't even hungry anymore. I canceled my decision on going to the cafeteria and returned to my seat instead. Crossing my arms on the table, I let out a sigh.

I'm done with all the crying..

I then laid my head on top of my crossed arms.

Staring out to the classroom window, I fully opened the windows to my memories.

I closed my eyes, letting my memories drag me back to Monday, March the 16th.

Monday, March the 16th.

"Today I have extra good news for you, as I will be assigning all of you to do a very fun project." Mr. Jang announced after receiving our greetings. Students all over the class could be heard grunting, oh, and I was one of them of course. Unlike the me you saw nowadays, back then I flowed on the same direction as my friends.

"What's more exciting is that you guys are going to work in pairs," he continued.

"Sir, do we get to pick our partners by ourselves?" a deep voice of a male could be heard from the back of the class. I turned my head to see that it was Kim Namjoon, the class president asking.

"Of course" Mr. Jang said. All of us cheered and started eyeing our 'targets', as in the ones we want to work with.

"I'm not finished with my words. Of course you may, by drawing the numbers I have prepared." the cheers turned into disappointed complains in a split second. We stood one by one getting our tiny piece of paper with numbers in it from the box Mr. Jang was holding. I silently prayed while taking my number, hoping that I would end up with someone in my favor. Returning to my seat, I unfolded my paper. A big fat "7" was written on it. I wonder who gets the same fate as me.

Jimin waved his hand at me and mouthed "two." Oh I guess we wouldn't be teaming up. I shrugged as I put up seven fingers. He then pouted and made a sad face, I chuckled at his actions and replied him by sticking out my tongue. He showed me an overly-exaggerated offended face as his response. "Now please sit with your partner, starting from group one on the front-left corner of the class, and ending on group twelve on the back-right corner." Mr. Jang's instructions got us rising from our seats trying to go to the the designated spots. I and Jimin, luckily was already in the right places. We high-fived as we didn't have to even stand up.

Suddenly someone pulled the chair beside me and sat there.

He was holding a small paper with the number "7" on it.

He was Jeon Jungkook, and he was smiling at my direction.

Park Jimin, knowing that I have a tiny crush on Jungkook bursted out into laughter. Jungkook seemed confused about the situation, I stopped Jimin by secretly kicking his chair from behind. Jimin, being himself, pretended that I had just broke his tailbone and kept saying that he was in pain.

"Park Jimin, do you need assistance from the school healthcare unit?" Mr. Jang asked him since he was being too noisy.

"No sir, I'm good" he answered, being embarrassed that his art teacher had witnessed him wiggling in his seat. I threw him a smug smile meaning 'in your face, Park Jimin' and he gave me a sour look on his face.

"Now the project I'll be assigning you, is to depict someone through caricature. That particular someone might be anyone, as long as you are able describe their personality and traits into visual details in the caricature. Picking a well-known character such as Mahatma Gandhi or Adolf Hitler is fine, but choosing the ones near you, such as your classmates are also allowed. Well, as long as you got their permission and not harass their image." I took some notes about the assignment. "Well then, I'll give you time to discuss." Mr. Jang continued.

I'm glad that I got paired with Jungkook. His unique style of drawing would be perfect for this caricature project, and of course also because I, ahem, kinda liked him. Speak of the devil, Jungkook suddenly said to me "Hey, it's great that you're my partner, let's work together and get along well," and smiled. I smiled back and answered shyly "Me too, sure thing." Jimin turned his head around and gave me a weird smirk right when I thought my life was being too peaceful without his teasings.

"What's up with you man?" Jungkook asked Jimin.

"Nothing, I was only congratulating my best friend for being in the same team with you." he answered. I warned him to shut up by giving him threatening stares.

"And why would you do that?"

"Because Jinhee looooooves y-" before he could finish his sentence I covered his mouth with my hand and attacked him.

Jungkook gave out a confused expression but then laughed at us, well to be more detailed at me beating the crap out of Jimin from my seat.

Jeon Jungkook, the one that tends to be quiet in his group of four. The others were Kim Taehyung, Jung Hoseok, and Min Yoongi. He is an all rounded student, being good and even exceling in both academical and non-academical subjects. Plus, he got good looks and and a blessed vocal chord. Every girl in the class have a mini fangirl inside of their hearts for Jeon Jungkook.

"So, who are we going to draw?" the boy asked me.

"Well, we can always draw Park Jimin with all his countless flaws.." I said a little loudly so that Jimin could hear me.

Jimin was trying to convince his partner, Taehyung, that they are not allowed to draw Bart Simpsons since he is not a real person. Hearing my remark, he turned his attention to us again, abandoning Taehyung. "You don't feel contented yet, that after torturing my perfect body you still wanted to hurt my feelings?" he said in a dramatic tone. I was going to answer him when suddenly Taehyung went crazy and cannot handle another abandoning "Jimin, listen to me, Jimin-ah, Jimin-ah, Jimin-ah listen to me, Jimin-ah, Jimin, Park Jimin, Jiminnie" Jimin finally gave in and turned his back towards me and Jungkook while scrunching his nose, about to explode from all the Taehyungness he was experiencing. Jungkook and I can only laugh from the view.
