My Swag Boy Pt. 2: Forgotten Love

009

[Do Hee's POV]
"Eomma?!" The sight of Eomma with a fake smile, with a hand on my shoulder, in front of me, made my hair stand on end.

She saw everything!!! Of course that smile was fake! She's usually never this calm and comforting.

She doesn't want me to spend my time on people like... Woozi! A bad influence!

The thought of her giving me a lecture in the living room gave me goosebumps all over my skin.

She would definitely NOT reveal her scary and horrifying side in class! That would be an humiliation.

Well, she's really loud when she's furious, and that's what I'm scared of.

And if she goes really mad and loses control right now, everyone from the canteen would've came running, crowding around me & Eomma. I'm sure even Mingyu could hear it!

And it's been a long time since Eomma had yelled out loud at me. So I'm sure I'll cry during the admonition.

"Yeogi mwo hago isseo(What are you doing here)?" My voice was tremulous, shaky.

"You forgot your lunch." Eomma lifted up a paper bag in her hand. Lunch? "Since when have I brought lunch to school?" I looked at her with a bewildered look.

"Nah~ I just wanted a hug~ Hehe." Eomma giggled like a teenage girl. I then laughed half heartedly.

I stretched out my arms and waited for the hug. She crashed into me and enveloped me tightly. Guess Appa isn't the only kid in my family!

"You missed me a lot, huh?" I smirked. Usually, Eomma's the one to tease me. But now, it's the opposite!

"Geunyang neol bogo sipeo(I just wanna see you)." Eomma's lower lip protruded.

Gross! I gave her a sickened look.

"Fine, fine! I won't do that again!" She put her hands up and relinquished. "I'll see you at home later." She grinned and left, after patting my shoulder twice.

Shit. I'm so dead once I get home...

School is finally over and I quickly rushed out of the gates. I've been avoiding Vernon, Yoongi, Junhyeok, and Woozi ever since I ran away during recess.

I definitely don't wanna get close to Woozi. That son of a b*tch...

"Hey! High.D! Wait up!" Junhyeok yelled and ran to us. I stopped walking, I didn't turn back. I waited till they were by my side, then I started walking again. "Why didn't you wait for me? We live in the same house." Vernon said, while taking in quick breaths.

"Yah... Wae geurae(What's wrong)?" Yoongi tugged on my arm, causing me to stop on my tracks.

"Geugeon amugeotdo eobseo(It's nothing at all)." I yanked my arm away from his grip and head towards home.

On the way home, I had a few thoughts. Did I go too far? Did I express my feelings evidently? Are they suspecting me now? Are they worrying about me now?

I have this gut feeling that I've hurt those three boys a little just now. Am I feeling guilty for acting like that to them just now?

"Yah! Time to wake up, my beautiful princess!" I pushed my thoughts aside as I heard Vernon's shout. I suddenly felt shy & flushed by Vernon's words.

I noticed that he was right in front of the door to my house.

I was about eight footsteps away from him. The door was wide open.

I was embarrassed. I looked at him and laughed nervously. Then stepped into my house.

"Hey. Hakgyoneun eottaesseo(How was school)?" Appa asked as he set the newspapers he was reading down. "Gwenchana." I said without taking a glance of what Appa is doing right now.

I threw my bag & myself on to the huge carpet in front of the couch and spread my arms & legs out.

I sighed, finally feeling so relaxed. "Get off the mat and get into the bathroom! Don't dirty my beautiful mat!" Appa whined.

"It's not a mat. It's a carpet." I sarcastically replied and left for the bathroom. I locked myself in the bathroom for a second then walked out to the living room again. "Yeogi mwohaneungeoya(What are you doing here)? Didn't I tell you to take a bath?"

"No. You told me to go to the bathroom only." I looked into Appa's eyes naively. "I'm telling you to take a bath, indirectly!" Looks like someone's pissed.

A laugh left my lips.

"Blehh~" I stuck out my tongue at Appa and made a funny face. Then headed to my room with my bag.

>>>Skip Time>>>
"Dude... Why can't you leave me alone?!" I raised my voice at Woozi. I've been in misery since I stepped foot into the school this morning!

He called me names. He pushes me on to the ground every time he sees me. He teases me. He insults me. He got me into trouble, twice!

"Joshua, please let me curse at him!" Joshua is here with me. Literally. And Woozi too. *narrows eyes at Woozi* "No! He is older than you! Respect him!"

"Why?!" I groaned. "He's my ex boyfriend! He's a playboy! He cheated on me with my best friend!!!" I snapped back at him. "What?! Lee Jihoon! How can you cheat on this girl?! She's beautiful! You should be lucky you had her. Well, it's your loss anyways." I blushed.

"Beautiful? Did I attract you?" I decided to tease Joshua. His cheeks went red and turned away. "No. Well, you are beautiful." He chuckled nervously. I laughed at his reaction. Then I realized that Woozi's still here. I frowned and sent him a death glare.

"Ok. Jeori ka(Go away), Jihoon. Jeori ppajyeo(Get lost)!" I shooed Woozi away and walked home with Joshua & Vernon.

"Hey Vernon. Why're you so quiet? Are you jealous?"

"Of what?" He gave me the 'WTF' face. "Joshua called me beautiful." I confidently said. "And?"

I let out a sigh. "This guy is hopeless. Let's go out, Josh!" I grabbed Joshua's hand and intertwined our fingers. Joshua blushed. "Hey! Don't- I mean I wanna come too!" Vernon pushed me & Joshua away from each other.

"Just admit it, Hansol. You're jealous." I grinned at the thought of him being jealous. "Yah! Respect your hyung!" "I didn't do anything!" Vernon exclaimed.

"Hey. Pushing someone away roughly is a form of disrespect!" Joshua glared at Vernon.

I laughed.

"Vernon's jealous!" I shouted and yelled to my parents that Vernon's jealous.

"Yah yah yah!"

Vernon started chasing me. "Catch me if you can!" I started running while singing Snsd's Catch Me If You Can.

I then hid in my closet. I huffed & puffed. I was feeling really hot right now. I then heard the door to my room close and a voice called out. "Do Hee-ah~ Yoongi wants to treat you to Bubble Tea~" Oh really? I'm not gonna fall for that.

"Fine. Don't come out then." The door was then shut.

Is he really gone?

I pushed open the closet door a little and looked through the small gap.

I see no one.

Then the closet door was swung open and Vernon stood in front of me, smirking.

I'm doomed...
