That One Mistake / Yeonjun [✓]

Apology

Laura

I made a fool out of myself by crying in front of that douchebag. No matter how much I think of it, I regretted it. So much! Now, I have no idea how to face that guy, acting normally when I just embarrassed myself yesterday. I did still go to school, I won't back out just because of a guy. I knew better than that. I tried my best to not look at him. When I went inside the class, Yeonjun looked at me attentively like a stalker.

I wanted to apologize to her that day but she avoided looking at me like a plague. I felt so ashamed of myself. I saw her coming inside the class, straight to her seat. When she walk through me, I couldn't mutter up my words. She wouldn't even hear me cause she's wearing earphones.

We had to play dodgeball when it was gym class. I didn't have the mood to play but still, I took part in it so that I get teamed up with Laura. But we weren't on the same team unfortunately. I glanced at Laura every chance I got, not paying attention at the ball. She looked so done with all of this. She dodged the ball just by walking lazily and hiding herself behind someone.

When our team was about to attack, I heard the girls in front of me, holding the ball that time were planning to throw the ball at Laura. Looking at Laura, she wasn't even focusing on the game. Her back was facing our team. Before I could warn her, the girls threw the ball really hard and it hit Laura's head making her fall on her face.

"Laura!" I screamed her name when I saw a little blood on the floor. I called out to her but she didn't respond. So, I carried her to the nursery room.

I felt something hard hit the back of my head when I wasn't paying attention to the game. Before I even knew it, I landed on my face because of the strong impact. Fuck. I heard a familiar voice calling out to me. My head ached so much, it was hard for me to open my eyes. Suddenly, I was lifted up by somebody. Then, I realised the person who was carrying me was the douchebag himself. Yeonjun.

After a couple of minutes, she woke up. I'm fucking relieved, if she didn't, I would have kill myself cause I didn't apologize to her yet. I sit beside her to apply some cream on her forehead as there was a cut. She didn't say anything as she let me sit beside her and touch her. "I'm sorry..." She remained silent for a minute. 

"Why?"

"Yesterday,, I.......it was fucked up. I shouldn't have said that. I didn't know why I did. I'm just...really sorry." I didn't have the guts to look at her face while apologizing. It was a coward move from me but I just can't.

"Do you want me to tell you why?" I arched my eyebrow. "Your egoistical and selfish side said that. You didn't want someone to see you as a loser so you lied. You were ready to throw someone under a bus just to make yourself look good. Yes, you fucked up."

Everything she said was true. I can't even deny it. I just wanted to beat myself up but I rather let her do it. "But, I forgive you. I don't even know why but I just... I just want to put this thing behind us. A part of me knows that you didn't mean it, so I will believe it. Don't make me regret it!"

Never in my life, I would think that she would forgive me. I thought that I would get thrown out from this nursery wit a couple of injuries and I don't get to talk to her for the rest of my life. She can see that shock on my face as my eyes were wide open.

Suddenly, I heard a giggling sound before a hand patted my head gently. "You're cute when you're shocked." 

My heart was beating so fast, faster than lightning. It doesn't make sense but it truly felt like that. I stared at Laura's beautiful eyes with an awe look. She was smiling so widely like an angel. It melted my heart. I was so nervous as I've never felt like this before about someone. None have made my heart pound this fast. Laura, what are you doing to me..
