Adversity High [re-vamping]

Chapter 8: Police Station

Hye Mi P.O.V 

After that question came out of my mouth I regretted it. Who knows where this murderer is, he might be in the school or watching our every move. I shook off the thoughts and followed Hana to our English class. She asked "Did you finish your english homework?" I nodded and asked "Did you?" She said "Of course I did." 

I was walking until I felt someone poke my shoulder and when I turn around no one was there so I shrugged it off. I kept walking until I heard 'did you hear what happened on Sunday?' or 'yeah the poor student.' As much as I was intrigued by this I must soldier on and walk to class. I reached english class with Hana then sat in my usual seat. 

My mind was else where until Hana whispered "psttt, are you even paying attention?" I snapped out of my thoughts. I looked at Hana and said "You were saying?" She rolled her eyes then said "You need to pay attention. Where is your mind nowadays?" I said "Sorry, it's just not here with me right now." She pokes my forehead then said "You better get your head back together soon." 

I nodded and asked "So, what was the homework again?" She sighs then says "You have to read 2 chapters of a book of your choice." I asked "What kind of book?" Hana shrugs and said "I don't know, I guess it's any genre." 'even manga?' I thought in my head but the teacher probably won't accept that so I pouted. I put my hand and asked "Can I please go to the library and pick a book?" 

The teacher nodded and said "Yes you may go and pick a book." I bowed and said "Thank you." I went to the library and started looking for a book. I heard a voice from behind ask "Need help?" I jumped in surprise and said "You scared me." and answered "I do need help." he asked "What book do you wanna read?" I said "I don't know um..... romance or horror." 

He tapped his chin and said "Romance or horror hey? Hm... If you want romance with a little bit of sadness read The Fault In Our Stars but if you want to read horror then I suggest Dracula or Frankenstein." I said "You sure know a lot about books." When I turned back to him he wasn't there. Damn that boy is fast, I tried looking around the library but he wasn't there.

I sighed and looked back at the book in my hand. Well the fault in our stars it is then. I went over to the librarian and asked her to scan the book which she did. I thanked her and walked out back to the classroom. Hana said "Oh! You're back! Did you find a book?" I said "Yeah I did actually. It's called the fault in our stars." She said "Oh! That's a good book but have tissues with you though." 

Oh no, not another sad crying book. Why did you have to pick this book for me? Why? WHY?! I sighed and sat back in my seat. I looked at the book and read the blurb:

Despite the tumour-shrinking medical miracle that has bought her a few years, Hazel has never been anything but terminal, her final chapter inscribed upon diagnosis. But when a gorgeous plot twist named Augustus Waters suddenly appears at Cancer Kid Support Group, Hazel's story is about to be completely rewritten.

Insightful, bold, irreverent, and raw, The Fault in Our Stars is award-winning author John Green's most ambitious and heartbreaking work yet, brilliantly exploring the funny, thrilling, and tragic business of being alive and in love.

John Green is the best-selling author of Looking for Alaska; An Abundance of Katherines; Paper Towns; Will Grayson. 

I think I might enjoy this book even if it does involve tissues. The bell rang for next class so I went and put my book away. I looked at my timetable and I have calculus now. I got out my books for calculus and off I went. While walking to class though I couldn't help but feel as if like someone is following but when I look back no one is there. 

I shrugged it off and kept walking but when I got to the classroom I saw a very familiar face sitting down at the teachers desk. I walked into the class and sat down but when I looked at who was sitting at the desk. I mentally gasped and thought 'omo! what is Mr Jun-Myeon doing here?!' When everyone came in he stood up.
