*Taehyung's P.O.V*

As I walked to the bookstore I immediately saw from the distance that I'm screwed if I won't take that god damn book in seconds. I tried to push forwards, but there are just too many people. "Fuck" I cursed under my breath and looked to the shell where it's placed. Shit, there is just only one left and someone probably will take it.. But then..

"YOU! BLACK LADY! GRAB THAT BOOK FOR ME" I yelled and she turned to my direction revealing her face. It's her. The girl from yesterday! Without any hesitation she grabbed the book before the other girl did it and I felt much relieved. I pushed through others and walked closer to her. As she lifter her head.. Her face expression got a bit shocked. Cute. "Thank youuu!" I smiled at her and took the book, but then she just turned back and started walking. Ignoring me again? Oh no! That won't be happening again! I grabbed her wrist and she stopped.

"It hurts. Let me go." She finally spoke.

"I'm not even holding it tight!" I giggled.

"I said: IT HURTS" She raised her voice and snapped my hand with her other arm. What's wrong with her?

"Uh... Um. I'm sorry." I lowered my head.

"Cool" She said and walked away to the register. Why is she acting so cold? It pisses me off, but also makes me want to know what's the reason behind this. I'm interested in people minds, their mental state. Why? I want to become psychologist.

In minutes she left the bookstore leaving the atmosphere not so dark. I know, it sounds weird, but with her here.. I was able to feel bad vibes.
I paid for my mother's book and walked outside. I looked around and saw that girl standing and being ready to pass the road. "Should I try talk to her again?" I asked myself, but without hesitation I ran where she was standing because now or never.

*Mei's P.O.V*

That weirdo guy.. Why does he look so happy? I'm... I'm feeling jealous. I also want to be happy, but don't know how. Eh, my life sucks.

I was about to pass the road, but then felt someones hand on my shoulder. I turned back and saw that's it's him. That guy. What does he want?

"Why can't you leave me alone?" I asked him and he gave me big smile.

"You are interesting!"

"Yeah, right" I said and started walking forwards, but.. He.. He also started walking besides me. "What do you want?" I lifted my head and asked.

"To know you better!" He smiled again.

As we passed the road I stopped.

"First: I have trust issues.
Second: I don't have friends.
Third: I don't know how to talk properly to other.
Fourth: I'm hated by others.
Fifth: I'm Mei." As I said that to him his face left shocked, but he immediately spoke....

"SO IT'S REALLY YOU!" He said in excited voice and made me really confused. How does he know me? What the actual fuck?

"What? How?"

"Don't look so scared, Mei!" He patted my head. "Basically my friend knows your sister and was dragged to her house by another guy and he told me that there was a girl like you and..."

"And?"

"He told that you are hurting yourself. Why?" His face became more husky than it was before. Why does he care? But why Layla tells these things to others? Is she stupid or what? That fucking idiot.

"Personal reasons. Don't mind that. See, I'm alive and fine now." I said and was about to walk away.

"Why are you avoiding me?" He asked with serious look.

"I don't know you and I don't trust others. Actually I don't trust anyone."

"Why don't you give a try? Like.. Trusting in me? He asked and now I'm completely shocked. WHAT IS WRONG WITH HIM? I lowered my head. "So.. How's that? If I'll hurt you, I'll let you to beat my ass in public" Is he trying to make me laugh? What's happening..

"I don't kno-"

"Okay! Let's go! He grabbed my palm and started to run making me run after him. Where are we going? Why I can't just punch him in the face and say 'fuck you and leave me alone'?

What the fuck?
