treize : misunderstanding

Hyerin's POV

Heart-ssi, please stop beating so fast. I can't even catch up, please help me. Just what did he think he's doing? He kept teasing me again and again.

Poor you, Choi Hyerin.

I went to the bathroom, looked at the mirror and saw a reflection of my tomato version so clearly that I want to scream. I used my hands to rub my cheeks many times to stop them from getting any redder.

  "Are you disappointed now that we're just fake?"

Ya! Stop thinking about him, Hyerin. I'm begging you.

  "Shall I make you my real one?"

Choi Hyerin, are you stupid? Have you gone seriously insane?

I washed my face immediately and looked at the mirror as I noticed that my cheeks got back to normal again. I sighed in relief and dried my hands.

For a moment, I heard the bell ring indicating that the lunch break is over. Just as I was about to walk outside the bathroom, I noticed that the papers are still laying next to the sink.

The papers of studying abroad. I'm actually interested in studying outside the country but I still think that I'm not good enough to do that yet so I have been hiding about this without anyone knowing, even my parents. That's why, I hid it from Jin just now.

I took them and peeked my head outside the bathroom to see if Jin's still around. I think he's gone back to class so I walked outside to my class's direction when suddenly I felt someone pulling my shirt slightly from behind.

I turned around to see that it was Jin. Oh god, why do I have to see this idiot's face again?

  "What do you want?" I asked him blatantly and he smirked, releasing his hand from my shirt.

  "I just want to see my girlfriend's face." He teased me again with his hands in his pockets and his face moved closer to my face.

"Ya, stop joking. I'm going back to class." I ran away immediately to my classroom. No one arrived the class yet so I just went to my seat and put the studying abroad papers into my bag and zipped it back in an instant.

For a moment, students started to fill in the classroom and also Jin. Our homeroom teacher came inside along with Red Hulk. Why is he here?

"Attention class." He said, tapping the whiteboard many times. "I'm here to announce that a copy of an essay exam went missing during lunch break." He continued which made everyone whispered and gasped.

"The CCTV is still in the middle of being fixed so I have to check your bags now." He walked to check my classmates' bags and I put my bag on my desk to let him do the check up.

I unzipped my bag and saw unfamiliar papers inside it. My heart was beating so fast and my forehead became all sweaty. On the head of the paper, it said "Midterm Essay Test."

I swear to god, to Karma, to Jesus, to Poseiden, to Hades, to Zeus, to everything that I'm not the one who stole it!

It wasn't long before Red Hulk arrive my place. He looked at me and smiled. "Of course, the amazing class president won't do it right?" He said while I'm looking at him with my eyes widened. His facial expression turned blank as he grabbed my bag and checked it.

I looked down at my thighs, interlaced my fingers together. I bit my bottom lip and I was scared to look at him.

"Okay, class president." He said, taking out the papers from my bag. I didn't look at him.

"Student Choi Hyerin!" His voice became louder and firmer. I looked at him as he held the papers in the air to make everyone gasp and whisper to each other. I'm almost close to tears again.

"Can you explain to me about this?" He asked, almost shouting. "You were the one who turned the lights in the school off, didn't you?"

"I-I didn't do it! I swear, I didn't do it." I stuttered as my eyes became filled with tears.

"So, she has been doing this all along?"

"No wonder why she got first rank."

"I can't believe this."

"She's been cheating again and again."

"Yeah, we're fooled by her."

That moment, I slammed my desk and I stood up. I also heard someone slammed his desk as well. I looked backward to see Jin standing up too.

"Ya! Have you guys gone crazy? Do you really think that she's the one who did it?" He yelled to the class.

"Ya, Kim Seok Jin. Are you trying to protect your girlfriend?" Soomin slammed her desk, yelled at Jin while pointing at him.

"What?" Jin asked.

"You guys can't fool us, do you know that? Did you look at the school's page? Your picture of Class Prep kissing went viral now. You guys seriously have no idea what the school's rules are? You wanna be famous that much?" She continued as Jin and I are both shocked.

Seriously? Who the fuck planned all of this?

I looked at everyone as they took out their phones from the bags and looked at the school's page murmuring "It's true...". At that moment, Red Hulk snatched a phone from one of my classmates and looked at it. He then looked at both of us with furious facial expression.

  "Choi Hyerin, Kim Seok Jin. Come with me now." He ordered both of us and walked outside the class. We followed him.

He led both of us inside the principal's office as the principal turned his chair around to look at both of us with a serious face.

  "Principal-" The principal cut Red Hulk off.

  "I know." He said, looking at Red Hulk then he looked at me. "Student Choi Hyerin. Your mom will be here at any time soon. You should consider very carefully and admit your mistakes. I forgave you before but now, you kept doing mistakes that can't be overlooked."

  "Principal! I didn't do it. And about the photo, it was a misunderstanding!" I tried to speak but my throat tightened.

  "Let's talk about this when your mom comes." He sighed and looked away from me.

  "Principal, it's a misunderstanding!" Jin spoke which made the principal turned to look at us.

"Silent!" He almost shouted and we all kept silent instantly until I heard knocks on the door.

It was my mom.
