|Chapter 13| Remember (You)

(A/N Remember You is surprisingly related to the context of this book... when I first read the lyrics it was just perfect)

Jinyoung POV:
Once I got home eomma greeted me with a big smile and a warm hug.

"Jinyoung-ah! How was prom?" she asked stroking my head lovingly.

Everything that had happened today was suddenly gone.... my confusion, anger and sadness was all gone. I felt relieved to be under her warm love but sadly I had to reply to her question.

"It was... an experience..." I sighed.

She looked at me with a concerned face,

"why do you sound so sad? Did something happen?" I stiffened,

"oh... no nothing happened... just danced a little too much."

She looked at me with one eyebrow raised, crap! Can she see my bluff? Was I that obvious?

"What's this?" she pointed at the side of my head.

I ran to the mirror and saw a reddish/ purplish Mark (M/N hehe) on my cheek bone.

"Oh yeah that... when I was going home after school some kid from the freshman year accidentally whacked me in the face with his hockey stick...it's fine really."

She brushed her hand gently against my cheek and sighed,

"okay... you should go and get ready to sleep."

I nodded and gave her a hug.

"Oh and one last question... how's Jaebum?" she asked grabbing my arm. I had no idea what happened to Jaebum besides the thing that he cried and also apparently danced with me based on what Hyemi said.

"Jaebum's fine... danced his life out like his sister" I giggled-ish.

I walked to my room and got into bed. I just want to fall asleep and forget this whole day but I ended up staying awake the whole night. The voices of Hyemi echoed in my head... making me scared and angry at the same time. I really hope this is a dream.

---Time-mu Skipu---

Monday:

Today was an unusual day.... I ran into Jaebum and Hyemi only resulting in a death stare contest. They didn't say anything but only furrowed their eyebrows and stat down in their seats. Markson seemed really quiet around me too... I would see them goofing about until they see me looking at them then they would give me a blank face.

At lunch I didn't see Jaebum anywhere... did he even get anything to eat? I saw Hyemi but she was hanging out with Sungjin at another table. Jaehee was hanging out with the Maknae line plus Jae and on the other end of the table and Markson was just... minding their own business. This left me alone... no one would sit next to me and adding on to that, I would get paper balls thrown at me and get called names for no reason!! Some would include, abandoner, ditcher, scaredy cat etc.. And I had no idea why! I would ask them why they were bullying me but they would just roll their eyes and say 'you really don't remember?' OF COURSE NOT! I was fricken knocked out! One moment our group was just fine and the next, they're all broken apart. What the heck happened? Arghhh I just want to remember so that this conflict will just end. Oh I forgot to mention Yoona. Note that there is this rumour that's going around that we're dating apparently and I ditched Jaebum for her. Is that why he's avoiding me? Did I make him mad? Did I even do that? *sigh* I don't know.... Anyway I keep on explaining that we're not dating but they would keep on rubbing in my face that, if you kiss you like each other. Pssh! What kind of logic is that!?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wednesday:

I suddenly awakened to the sight of the bright light pouring through my blinds. I had this unusual dream... I can't remember it properly but it had to do something with prom and being knocked out. I was calling out Yoona's name for some reason until someone covered my mouth with a cloth and I guess that's where my dream ended.

I tried hanging out with Yoona today... still sceptical about her... she ended up being really clingy especially around Hyemi who I only seen twice today. Jaebum and Markson weren't there at lunch today although I did see them go outside into the field. Maybe they're having their lunch outside?

Friday:

I woke up in the middle of the night again... This time my dream was about Jaebum. I was apparently dancing with him.. As in slow dancing... and I liked it. I felt safe in his arms although I knew it wasn't real. Is this what Hyemi ment? I'm pretty sure my brain is just making this up because I couldn't stop thinking about this for the past 6 days.

At school we we're basically getting ready for retreat next Monday. My partner was apparently Jaebum... how fricken convenient. We worked together on some buddy work although he didn't seem alive at all. He barely made eyes contact with me nor talk with me. The Jaebum I remember isn't like this at all... he would always tease me or at least annoy me in some way. This isn't right...

*RINGGG*

"Class dismissed" the teacher announced.  I haistly tidied everything up and ran out the door. Why you ask? I'm going to make things right. I saw the older walk out the class soon after and I ran straight to him. "Jaebum!" I yelled through the halls. His body froze but then started dashing through the hall. Crap! I ran after him, pushing and shoving people aside just to keep up with him but he was gone... he scrambled into the bus last minute and off he went. I groaned and started walking back to the train station where Hyemi, Sungjin, Jae and Jaehee were already patiently waiting for the train. Maybe if I can become friends with them again then I can finally know what's going on. "Hey!", unlike my smiling face theirs turned in shock and disgust. "What is it Jinyoung?" Hyemi asked sternly. "I just wanted to ask—" great! Thank you train for coming now and interrupting me! Before I know it they disappeared too... *sigh* maybe next time Jinyoung... Surely next time will be a charm.
