First Sight (Jungkook & IU fanfic) [REVISING]

First Sight 14 - Anger

IU's POV

After the cutting, tracing and pasting work we did, Irene told me to get out first before her. She is afraid that Minho will do the same to her like he did to me but I assured her that there's nothing's going wrong with him.

I brought my wallet and phone with me as I went outside the classroom. I see Minho leaning against the wall. He stands straight when he saw me. His face is angelic as if he did something good to me.

"Let's go," he said. "Where do you want to eat? I heard that there's a good Japchae (Beef and Vegetable Noodle) in a food chain near here. We must try it," he said with energy as if he didn't do something to me a while ago.

I nod at him and started walking towards the parking lot just outside the institution where faculties who have cars can park. He follows me until we reach his red Hyundai Sonata.

He opened his car with a remote control. I am about to hold open the door in the shotgun seat when his hands did the same so I flinch away and I see his expression hurt that I obviously abstain him. He might hurt me again in no time. He just opened the door for me and I stepped inside.

I can see he's looking at me in the corner of my eyes. I couldn't look at his face. He entered the key to its ignition and he started driving.

---

I ignored him for the rest of the trip and I felt guilty about how I motion towards him. We are now here at the chain and he ordered us Japchae.

"You're still angry?" he asked calmly. When I didn't say anything he held my hand and I automatically withdraw it. "Look, I'm trying to be good here and to make things right, but when I saw you avoiding me, I felt like I'm invisible."

I didn't respond back but not trying to avoid him. He didn't talk again. He just taps his fingers on the table and let out a sight. We really didn't talk for a good 10 minutes. Good thing our order is served hot and fresh from the kitchen and we eat as well. It's kind of awkward not talking since he usually cracked jokes or talk about our work when we're together.

As we eat in silence, in my peripheral vision, he's looking at me. I ignore it and continue to eat. Again, he's looking at me. I took my glass of water and was about to lift and drink but before I do, he took my hand that was holding the glass of water. That's when I looked at him in the eyes. "What?"

"What do you mean, 'what?'? I'm trying to talk to you yet you ignore me."

I raised an eyebrow. "What am I supposed to say then?" I say to him in a soft yet clear voice.

"Anything, just... say something. Please." He pleads. "This is the first time we eat lunch at work together."

He cannot bear our stillness in the dinner table. I see his doleful eyes looking at me.

We didn't get a chance to eat lunch together since he brought his own homemade lunch and usually eating in the teacher's lounge. Although we usually ate or have a coffee breaks and breakfast together before going to school.

I took my glass of water and drank it. "Don't hurt me like that again," I said completely.

"I'm sorry if I couldn't control my emotions. It's just that..."

When he trails off, I look at him seriously and said, "You're a teacher Minho, you should know how to control it."

He bent his head at my statement. "I was just jealous and irritated of that person. He often visits you in school and ever since his group had a school tour."
