Forbidden Lover | Lee Jongsuk [18+]

Chapter 3: Who Are You?

_Eunahs P.O.V_

HE'S THE NEW LECTURER. MY NEW LECTURER. Nice going Eunah, way to give him a "perfect" first impression.

"Sorry again. I didn't know" bowing my head off I could hear giggles and whispers from the class that are meant for me.

The new teacher didn't say anything for a few seconds till he motioned his head towards the seats. "Go and sit down we'll finish this conversion at the end of the lesson. And the three of you girls, you shouldn't be treating my student like that. Do you want me to call the head?"

Sungmi gasped "Well it's a good thing you're cute otherwise we'll be having a conversation in which I win" she then flicked her hair back and walked off.

Walking to my seat a smile crept on my face seeing Sungmi in defeat.

"Alright class now that everyone is here let's get started, my name is Jongsuk Lee and I'll be your new lecturer for the rest of your duration here. Now, during these three hours, I'll be showing you an old case."

Mr Lee points to the bored as the slide changes behind him with a picture of a mid-30s to late 40s man.

"Karl Arnold ...... Can anyone tell me who he is?"

Only a few people in the class raise up their hands but I wasn't one of them, staying quiet and observing the people around me is what I'm good at. I know, weird right.

"Yes, you."

"Karl Arnold was a family therapist who was convicted of killing eight of his client's families household because they reminded him of the ones he lost, he stalked them, bombed them and terrorised them and then he killed them one by one."

"That is correct. Now, we'll begin with what led him to kill these families, also known as a stressor. Then onto the reports and the police saying that it was a murder suicide, what did they miss and if you guys can figure it out."

Everyone was intrigued by this case. When we had Mr King, he wouldn't go in depth on old cases, he thought we would get squeamish about them and so for the remaining hours of the lesson he would just lecture us on how miserable life is and that our generation is fucked up.

~~~

Three long, and I mean long hours finally came to an end. Students yawning as they walked out of the classroom as they were talking about how Karl Arnold was a fucked up man that needed to be in a mental asylum.

"Son Eunah can you come here please" Jongsuk asked.

Stuffing my books and pencil case into my bag. I knew that he wanted to talk about me being an ass to him at the start of the lesson.

"So now that class is over I would like to finish off our conversation from earlier. Where were we, oh I remember you were raising your voice at me and implying that I was being rude to you" Mr Lee folded his arms as he was resting his back against his desk.

"I'm so sorry, I was having a bad day and it just came out that way. It wasn't my intention to sound rude to you" I feel so embarrassed right now that I'm looking at the floor instead of my lecturer.

"What is it with you and saying sorry all the time, there's no need for you to apologise to me. Now it's my turn to say sorry to you."

I looked up with confusion."Why would you apologise to me? I'm the one who bumped into you and had a go at you, Sir."

"I know but I was also not being a good sport. I was also rude to you and for that I'm sorry."

Our eyes interlocked. He looked genuinely sorry.

"Apology accepted," I said with an uncomfortable smile. It's weird to think a teacher saying sorry to you, well to me anyway, but to see it right in front of your eyes it's definitely something. "I should be going now see you tomorrow Mr Lee." I bowed respectfully and walked out of the classroom, still feeling his gaze upon my back.

_Jongsuk P.O.V_

When the Son Eunah girl left the classroom, I decided to pack up the test papers with my things and head home. However, there was something about her that reminded me of someone who I encountered two years ago.

_Flash Back _

It was the worst night of my life. I found my girlfriend cheating on me with some wealthy man.

"You don't satisfy me anymore so I got myself a new man who loves me more than you could ever" what she said felt like a thousand bullets were piercing through my heart, each impact painful than the last.

"Is that what I am to you? Some toy that can be played with then be tossed aside when not wanted anymore!"

After we broke up I went to a pojangmacha* . I was so angry, so sad that I drowned my pain with alcohol.

I was so drunk that my walking resembled a fly ducking and weaving its way to the window. Everything was a blur; tears started to form. At that point nothing mattered to me anymore, my mind was blank and I could only feel nothing but sadness.

I went where my stumbling legs could take me, not knowing where I was really going. I could hear some people yelling at me, probably because I was drunk and that they were disgusted by me.

All of a sudden there was a bright light shining in my face. It took me a few seconds to roughly sober up when I realised that I was in the middle of a road and a car was coming straight at me.

Like deers in headlights, I froze.

I closed my eyes to accept my fate but then someone pushed me out of the way.

My head collided with the concrete floor. Blood started to fall down my forehead my ears started to ring. I looked towards the car and saw that the person who saved me was a man wearing a security uniform.
Then my vision started to blur, a girl came running to the man crying and screaming but I couldn't make out her face. After that, I blacked out.
