Alone (Michaeng)

Chapter 2: Get Together

Chaeyoung's POV

"You need to introduce yourself." She said.

'Oh great. One thing I hate aside from having asignments... Introduction.' Well they needed to know my name so here I go, even though I'm so shy, shy, shy.

"Nice to meet you. My name is Son Chaeyoung and I'll be studying here as of now. I hope you treat me well." I said and smile at my classmates. One person caught my eye though. She's so beautiful. She has this extraordinary-kind of aura. I looked at her and she smiled at me. It made me blushed. 'Why am I feeling like this?'

"Kindly seat beside Mina at the back." Mina? My roommate? She's the hottie?

I walked and sat at the back beside Mina and tried to avoid eye contact as much as possible. I listened carefully ro wha the teacher is saying, which I don't normally do. Well, it's better than thinking about the girl beside me. 'Oh yeah, I forgot about the gift.' I was hesitating to give to her because some people kept looking at us and I don't know the reason behind it. 'Do I look that ugly to seat beside someone who's pretty?' I stopped thinking and gave myself some courage.

"Mina-ssi, this is for you." I said without looking at her eyes, just staring at the ceiling.

"Wow thanks. How do you know I like penguins?" She asked with her eyebrows raised.

"It's because you're my roommate."

"Wait I have a roommate?"

Mina's POV

As I stared at Chaeyoung, she gave me a penguin necklace suddenly, without having eye contact. 'Is she scare of me or something?'

"Wow thanks. How do you know I like penguins?" I asked out of curiousity. How would she even know I like penguins?

"It's because you're my roommate." 'Did she just say roommate?!'

"Wait I have a roommate?" 'Oh my god.' I'm screaming in my head.

'If she's my roommate then she must have seen... my panties and bra hanging in the bathroom... Gosh, Minari. You're embarrassing yourself right now. She must think you're dirty.'

"Yeah. I just came yesterday night, but I didn't see you there." She said. 'Well of course you wouldn't see me there. I was with my girl friends.' (Jihyo and Momo)

"I was just busy. Don't worry I'll come later at night." I smiled at her.

The bell ringed and gave me a signal that the Math class is already over. As I stood up, someone went to me... It was Jeongyeon.

"Uhm... Hey, I just wanted to tell you that. Ugh... Sa... Saranghae." She said as she gave me a bouquet of flowers with a small oenguin inside it. It's cute and sweet but still... I hate falling in love.

"Sorry. As you know already, I hate the thing you call 'love'. I can't give you my heart like you want me to." I said to her with a blank face. It's just tiring. It's already the 7th time today. I left her crying.

"Aren't you a little to harsh to her don't you think?" Momo said to me.

"You know I hate it." I just really hate it for some point of reason. First because when you love someone it's like you gave your self to them and just follow their orders. Second, love hurts. Like seriously...

"And you know she's hot for a girl, you can't just reject that easily."

"Yeah, I know. But I'm not interested at all." I know I'm too harsh but still... I'm the one who controls my feelings. Not them.
