MEMORY

Chapter Two

CHAPTER TWO
She Doesn't Remember

I can't believe my eyes, is that really her? She's become so beautiful. 

"Sowon?" I said in a low tone

"Eh?" 

"What do you mean 'eh'?" I said and she looks at me confused. 

What's with that reaction? And what's with that look? 

Is like she doesn't remember me. Wait, is she?

We both like staring at each other in silence and I clearly see her confused with a conflicted expression. 

"Ahem"

I heard Mrs. Choi coughing and breaks our silence. She looks at me and smiles mischievously. God, I hate when she does that. There are only 2 things meaning from that smile, one, she knew something related to Sowon, and two, she really loves to tease me, her son. 

"Okay, Jungkook, you can go sit on your seat," she said while raising her two eyebrows with a mischievous smile still plastering on that face. "Oh, and don't forget your detention after school" she adds as I ignored her and just straight to my seat.

But before that, I took a glance once again at her. She still shows a confused look as if looking at the floor.

"Ok miss Sowon, you can have that empty seat," said 

For the entire class hour, I can't stop looking at her. I'm happy that I can meet her again but I'm confused that she didn't remember me.

Yes, maybe we didn't meet each other like what, 3 - 4 years? But that doesn't mean she's forgotten me right. I mean, I'm not changing that much.

"Yah, Jungkook-ah. Stop staring at her" my seatmate a.k.a my best friend, Jimin, elbowing me.

"Huh? I'm not starring" I said looking back to my note

"Oh really?" He said a bit teasing "Your eyes clearly showing you staring at her like you want to eat her or something" he adds

"What the-... Don't be ridiculous Jimin!" I denied a bit of shouting which makes everyone in the class look at me, including Sowon.

"Mr. Jeon, if you have any questions, you can raise your hand," said the teacher and I curse at Jimin who chuckled non-stop.

After the class ended, lunchtime. I see her walking outside the classroom, I can't keep my eyes away from her. My body moves on its own and follows her. 

"Yah, where are you going?" Ask Jimin

"Lunch" I answer without looking at him and walking towards where Sowon goes. I can feel Jimin smirk at me even without I look at him. I don't care. He can mock me anytime, I just want to know why Sowon doesn't remember me at all. 

I keep following her but at an unsuspicious distance. I know the way I do it's like a stalker, don't get me wrong, I never do this before, ever. Just, I am curious about what happened to her in the past few years. Even I just can ask my mother about it than being this stalker kind of behavior, but I don't want to. If I ask my mother, I bet, She'll tease me first. Urgh, that woman is really something if related to teasing his son to the fullest. 

Seriously, what happens to Sowon? She pretended like she doesn't know me like we never met before. I'm his childhood friend. We used to be close to each other. 

Sowon then turns to the corner and I follow her to not lost her track but when I turn to that corner, I am surprised that Sowon standing in there facing me with furrowed eyebrows and a suspicious look. 

Shit.

"What' your problem?" she asks with an annoyed tone 

Shit, I don't have any excuse.

She pouts.

Cute.

"Uhm..."

"Why are you following me?" she asks again

Shit. Did she realize I'm following her? 

"Wha-...following you?" I answer a bit nervous. Wait, why I'm behaving like a girl meeting his crush? 

I try to calm down, regaining my cool. 

"Who's following you?! Don't be so big-headed!" I said pretentiously and coldly. "Is not just you who want to go this way, now get off, you're on my way" 

Now she looks at me with shock and a sad expression. Shit, now I'm being a jerk.

She moves away and I just walk past her without even apologizing. Damn it, Jeon Jungkook. Why do you have to say something like that? Me and my damn mouth.

"I don't understand!"

Suddenly she shouted at me and I'm turning to look at her, she showed hurt and confused expression.

"Why...why you..." she said stammered, "You said my name earlier as you know me, honestly, I don't remember you at all but your face keeps appearing inside my dream...." she continues clenching her hands, "Who...who exactly are you?!" she said looking at me angrily yet sad at the same time.

I frowned. I bite my lower lip. 

I should be the one who asks her, why she doesn't remember me.

"I...I'm should the one who asks you!" I said with a bit higher tone and I can see she's jumped in surprise.

"How come you forget about me?! Are you forget our promise too?!" I said again, now with an irritated tone. I don't know why I'm so frustrated over this and released it to her like this. 

"Promise?"

Her expression looks confused and that irritated me. Did she forget our promise? 

"Jungkook?"

Suddenly, I heard a voice behind my back and I see Jin Hyung walking toward me.

"I'm sorry"

I heard Sowon murmured in low town and I can feel she was feeling sad. When Jin Hyung began to approach us close, Sowon walks away from me, a bit running. 

Shit.

"Did I interfere with something?" Jin Hyung said looking at me with an apologetic look

"Nothing, Hyung"

"Nothing...."

Sorry for the wait. 

Now, what'll happen between Jungkook and Sowon from now on, since now Jungkook's (it's been a while) impression of Sowon is bad. Are they going to be okay? Is Sowon going to remember Jungkook? And what Promise did Jungkook and Sowon make before?

Stay tuned for the next chapter.
