Empty (Punch sequel)

Part 4

The next second passed, Jungkook found himself making a contact with the ground. He lost his balance and fell down from over the chair, making it slid to the side and hit one of the infirmary beds.

"Oh! Hi." He said, holding a hand up in the air.

Minyoung's hand went over her mouth, covering it as she was holding a laughter in. Jungkook felt embarrassed and wished the floor could swallow him or he could just disappear into the thin air or run out of the room as fast he could.

Soon the smile over Minyoung's face faded as she noticed Jungkook's bleeding forehead. She gasped in shock and without realizing she found herself reaching for a handkerchief from her pocket.

Grabbing it out, she kneeled beside Jungkook and pressed the handkerchief into his wounded head, forgetting completely about the pain she had earlier.

"Oh my god, are you okay?" She hissed, looking seriously worried.

Jungkook pressed his lips into a thin line as Minyoung was so close to him. He could smell the scent of her new perfume, fruits and vanilla, from how close she was. His heart skipped a beat and his body tensed, froze.

Wake up, Jungkook. He scolded himself. She doesn't remember you. And that fact hurt as hell.

"I-I'm o-okay." Jungkook said, backing away from her. At the realization of what she had done and how close she was to Jungkook, Minyoung Jumped on her feet and cleared her throat, avoiding his eyes.

"You attend this school?" Minyoung asked an obvious question. She bit her lips and closed her eyes tightly. He probably thinks I'm trying being funny or stupid. She thought, in which it was an image she didn't want to give to him.

"Yeah." He answered kindly and Minyoung was grateful for the warmth of his voice. "You are... New, here?"

She nodded, with a small smile. She somehow was nervous. Thinking it was a miracle to meet him again. Especially in school. She wondered if he was in the same class as hers. Just having a celebrity in her class itself had been an excitement.

"What are you doing here? Are you okay?" Jungkook asked and Minyoung couldn't help but notice the concern in his voice. And his question made her wonder about her head that no longer was hurting her.

"Yeah, I'm fine. I did as you told me and here I'm healthy and out of the hospital." She said it with a sense of pride. She made a gesture of a cup with her hand in order to remind him of her. She absolutely thought he had forgotten about her.

Jungkook couldn't help but smile at her. He nodded in acknowledgment to her words and Minyoung inhaled in relive that he remembered her.

"You aren't that obedient thou." Jungkook murmured to himself, remembering how she used not to listen to anything he was saying and that she always did what she wanted to do.

"Excuse me?" Minyoung asked and Jungkook shook his head, slapping himself mentally for the slip of the tongue.

"I was joking." He said and Minyoung nodded, making an "ah" sound. She suddenly found no reason for her to stay here. Her head was no longer hurting and she had to go to class as the first period is going to start in a few minutes.

She bit down her lips as she was thinking of the right words to excuse herself out of the room, especially since Jungkook was staring for so long at her.

She knew that she had the first time asking him to be friends, but he didn't give a reply. So she found it kind of awkward to be here around him. So later when she thought about it, she concluded that he might have found her weird or even worst. Freak. Maybe he was thinking the same now as she was in the infirmary and she said that she was fine.
