Riddles

Chapter 1

Sonni's POV

"Class is now dismissed," Professor Jun says and walks out of class.

I stand up from my seat and swing my bag over my shoulders. Walking out of class, I stopped and sigh due to a long day of lectures, I hear echoes of someone running. I turn around to see who it is. It's my best friend, Jaehyo. He throws his arms over my shoulder, making me almost trip.

"Jaehyo! I almost lost my balls!" I yell.

"Whatever, it's microscopic anyways, so of course it's going to be lost," Jaehyo teased, giving me a little nudge.

I elbow Jaehyo at the balls.

"Ha! I don't feel anything!" exclaimed Jaehyo.

"Maybe, they're microscopic or you don't got any balls!" I laughed.

I run away, laughing and Jaehyo starts chasing me down the hall.

"Hey! Wait Sonni! I wanted to ask if you're going to that big party next week?" Jaehyo stops and questions.

I stop and turn, "I really don't like parties. Crowds makes me nervous," I yell and shy away.

"But c'mon, it's P.O's party, I thought you liiiiiiiiked hiiiimmmm," Jaehyo yells loudly making it echo through the halls. I notice everyone stops and stares at us. I'm going to kill Jaehyo tonight. I clench my fists in embarrassment.

"No, I don't like P.O. I never did," I blush violently.

"BUUT, in middle school you said you loooooovvveeed him~" I feel the eyes of girls piercing into the back of my head.

At this point, my cheeks are burning into crimson red. I hear people around me giggling and whispering. I looked down angry and embarrassed, wanting to smash Jaehyo with my textbooks. I quickly turn away and make a run for it, hoping that everyone there will forget me.

As I'm running through the hallways, my legs are carrying me to where ever they want to take me. The laughter of colleagues are invading my mind. I can't think straight. My train of thought stops when I bump into a tall figure.

"Umph! Watch where you're going!" exclaimed the mysterious man annoyingly.

"Oh my goodness, I'm so sorry!" I bowed about a million times, instant regret filling up my body.

He grabs me by the wrist with his left and swiftly grabs the collar of my shirt with his right , slamming me against the wall. I hesitantly opened my eyes to see who the mysterious man was. Immediately I regret existing.

That baby face, that sweet, smooth, baby face, I recognize that face from somewhere but I'm too overwhelmed to say his name. I just lay there speechless, trembling furiously. I close my eyes again waiting for his next move.

"Ah, P.O, can you let go of Sonni for me?" I open my eyes in relief to see Jaehyo waving then patting P.O. to stop what he was doing to me. Behind P.O are his other friends, Taeil, Zico and Kyung. I notice a group of their "fangirls" behind them too, whispering and giggling like a bunch of clowns at the whole situation.

P.O sighs as he lets go of my collar. I feel my legs turn into jello and look down to not make any eye contact with P.O. Jaehyo comes right next to me and wraps his long arms around my shoulder, keeping me steady.

"P.O, you should really chill. You act like those angry rich boys from those K-dramas." Jaehyo jokes.

In the back, I see Zico and Kyung sliding away. Taeil crosses his arms waiting impatiently and shaking his head in disappointment. P.O starts to scoff and suddenly walks closer to me, trying to get a grab me again. Jaehyo pulls me back behind him as if he was protecting me from a criminal. Oh my gosh. It's Jaehyo's first time actually protecting me. He's being a good friend for once.

"Ah, your name is...ummm...Sonni, right? Sonni from class A-2, in middle school right? The boy who sat next to me." He pointed a finger at me and squinted his eyes. He remembers me...

My heart starts to pound rapidly. I feel like I had just finished running a marathon. My face starts to burn. I'm blushing even redder than I did when Jaehyo embarrassed me in front of all the whole campus. Jaehyo turns around and is shocked at how red I had become. So he begins to pick me up bridal style and makes a run for it. P.O. shouts out but I can't comprehend. I only caught the words "you married couple",  "better come", "party", and "next week".

As soon as we got out building, Jaehyo plops me down at a nearby bench near the campus' water fountain and puts his hands on his waist. He breathes heavily and sighs loudly enough to grab my attention.

"Sonni, how much do you weigh? You're really heavy." Jaehyo sighs.

I ignore the question and focus on my heart that is skipping beats. "I think P.O. just invited me to his party," I blankly stare at Jaehyo. Jaehyo stares at me as if I'm stupid.

"Nooooo," Jaehyo says sarcastingly without second thought.

"OMG! WHAT SHOULD EVEN I WEAR?!?!?!?!?!?! I HAVE TO LOOK GOOD FOR P.O!" I instantly freak out.

I quickly grab my textbooks and run home to decide on what to wear next week's party.

Jaehyo is left speechless.
