two weeks after the incident with hadam, everything seemed to go back to normal. aside from hadam dropping out and their math teacher's death a week ago.
what? her math teacher was a pedophile who liked to spy on his students.
it was obvious how he acts around the girls.
so he choked on a drumstick while eating fast food.
there's so much people who'd want to harm her, he ponders.
"you seem awfully silent." jaemin commented on her behavior.
second period was dismissed early so the students had free time on their hands.
"nothing." she replies simply, rather peculiarly.
"it's not nothing." jaemin grabbed a random chair for him to sit on next to her, "is it about hadam? you know it's not your fault-"
"it's not about her." she answered sternly.
"then what?"
eunsol looks at jaemin seriously.
jaemin just came back to school yesterday with a new nose that is almost as identical as his old one.
the only difference is that his new nose crinkles when he smiles or laughs.
eunsol shrugs.
"you know what? why don't we sit at the same table for lunch?" he offered, hoping it would cheer her up.
she scrunched her eyebrows, "you mean the table where you and your friends sit?"
"come on, they won't mind."
"i think they will."
"trust me, they won't. not when my guest is as pretty as you." he winked.
-
"i'm really not sure about this." she stands in front of the table, tray in her hands.
"come on! it's only jeno here!" jaemin urges.
jeno gave her a kind smile, "i really don't mind."
jaemin pats the seat next to his and she had no choice but to sit down.
there was only three of them and their conversation was going pretty well.
until jaemin's other friends arrived.
"oh look who it is." renjun smirked slyly.
donghyuck narrowed his eyes as he and renjun takes a seat at their usual table.
donghyuck eyes eunsol and jaemin intently, "what are you doing here?"
"jaemin invited me." she said quietly.
his head suddenly snaps to his friend, "i thought i told you to stay away from her?"
"donghyuck-"
"damn it, jaemin! i told you! we made a ruse!"
"is it about that again?" jaemin asks lowly.
the tan boy looked taken back, "what the hell are you talking about?"
"it's about her, isn't it?" jaemin gestures to eunsol.
his lips parted, she's stuck in a triangle?
"tell us the truth, donghyuck." jaemin said, "why you won't let us go near her? what is your real motive?"
"don't put this on me. we had a deal and you broke it."
"screw the deal. what if i want eunsol?"
her eyes widened, "wait-"
"fucking dumbass." replied donghyuck.
"so i'm wrong now for making a move on the girl i like?"
"i'm not the one at fault here, obviously." donghyuck felt offended since it was jaemin who broke their promise.
jeno was already feeling the tension getting too high, "guys, can we just calm down-"
"i'm not the one who's got their emotions all mixed up." jaemin snickered, "it's time for you to stop getting mad whenever we hang out with eunsol. it's getting ridiculous."
"we'll see how ridiculous it is when someone finds you dead in a ditch-" donghyuck spat.
with that, eunsol stood up and walked away.
"look what you fucking did."
"listen here, you hard-headed piece of shit."
she walks out of the cafeteria.
she was upset, he can tell because of her aura.
what should i do now? should i make jaemin get rid of donghyuck? or should they fight until one person bleeds to death?, he thinks deeply.
but his thoughts vanished when he saw renjun walking behind her, grabbing her arm, turning her around and giving her a kiss on the forehead.
"i hope you remember that day.." he starts.
she was taken back at what he said but as soon as he left, eunsol started laughing boisterously at what he had told her.
he was suddenly pissed, what was that about?
