A Broken Glass Is His World

Knowing

She was everywhere he went. Through each of the hallways, passing by the lockers, and in most of his classes. Jihoon didn't know what to do, but stare, and he would sometimes find her staring right back. They've met before, so it wasn't like she didn't know who he was, but he didn't treat her well before at first so he had some regret when he saw her.

Yuna was still on crutches, but she managed to get to class on time because she was strong. During lunch she saw Jihoon sitting under the tree as he always did before, away from everyone, and decided to sit next to him.

She smiled cheerfully at him laying her crutches against the tree, "Hey you. I didn't realize you went to this school. How have you been doing?"

Jihoon looked at her under this hat and mouth mask, "I've been fine. Nothing important." he tried not to make eye contact.

Yuna leaned her head to the side a little to try to see his eyes, "Why do you always wear a hat and a mask? Do you have some soft of illness, or do you just not like to show your face?" she asked curiously taking a bite off her green, sour apple.

"I just don't like to show my face that's all." Jihoon responded still looking down at his lunch and not at her.

"Is that the only reason?" She asked wanting to know more.

Jihoon took a deep breath trying to control his temper beginning to get annoyed by all of the questions. "Yes, that is the only reason. Now would you let us both enjoy the rest of our lunch in peace."

She smiled slightly, "I like how you said "us" instead of telling me to leave you alone completely like I thought you were gonna do."

His eyes widen underneath his hat in shock by the words she said, Did I actually say "us"?  I hope she doesn't suspect anything going further after that. What the hell is wrong with me? This girl is driving me insane! He thought to himself slapping himself on the head.

Yuna giggled, "Why did you just hit yourself in the head for no reason? You're funny ." 

Jihoon's face became red. He was blushing. "I do that when I do something stupid."

"What did you do that was stupid?"

"Why do you ask so many questions?" he asked finally looking up at her with his dashing green eyes.

She fell silent by the sight of his remarkable eyes, "Well.....I.....I...I just want to get to know more about you. You seem like an interesting person. That's also a reason why I sat next to you at the park the first time we met because there's something about you that catches my attention and I want to know what it might be." She explained taking a gulp of her lemonade. 

He nodded at her with a smirk on his face that was covered by his mouth mask, "Well, I hate to break it to you, but there's nothing interesting about me." That was obviously a lie.

She chuckled, "What do you mean? Of course there's something interesting about you. I mean, for starters the first thing that I personally find interesting about you is how you wear a black hat and mouth mask every time you're outside. Don't you get hot? Are you allergic to the sun? Don't you see? It makes people wonder."

"That's one way of putting it, but most things I'd rather just keep to myself." Jihoon said taking his hat off and brushing his fingers through his hair before putting it back on.

"Well, at least now I know that you have blonde hair." she smirked at him gathering her trash together. That smirk made his heart sink. He smiled at her underneath his mouth mask.  She began to stand up, "Hey, could you help me? I'm still a little handicapped."

He came back to reality and stood up, "Oh yeah, sure." She took her hand and helped her stand up giving her her crutches that laid against the tree. "Leave your trash there. I'll throw it out for you." 

She smiled happily at him, "Thank you so much. Now I also know that you are kind and helpful." 

He was glad that he wore his mouth mask so that she wouldn't be able to see how red she was making him with her kind words. "I'm only helpful when I want to be, so don't feel too special." He smirked throwing away their trash. 

"Hey, what class do you have next?" Yuna asked waiting for him.

"Oh, I have Chemistry next."

"Really?! So do I! Now that I think about it, we have most of our classes together. Isn't that funny?" she exclaimed cheerfully.

"Yeah, you're right. I just realized that too." Jihoon added not taking his eyes off of her. 

As they made their way to their next class Jihoon wasn't paying much attention to where he was going, so he accidently bumped into the jocks that he aggressively met the week before.

"You stay away from me you freak!" said the jock that Jihoon punched in the face. He still had a bandage wrapped on his nose since now it was officially broken. "You stay away with your creepy, glowing eyes!" he shouted walking away. 

All eyes were now on Jihoon with the other students murmuring to each other. Yuna looked at him confused while also looking at the rest of the people around them.

"Hey, what is he talking about?" she tapped him on the shoulder trying to get his attention.

"Nothing, I just fought him last week because he was trying to be a smartass. Don't worry about it." he explained and continued to walk to class. "He was just trying to act tough when I knew he was a total coward."

They both sat down at a table together, "But what was he talking about your eyes glowing? Did your eyes glow or something?" she asked sounding concerned. 

I can't tell her the truth. It'll blow my cover. I don't think I could trust her.......yet.

"It's really nothing, honestly, he was probably just seeing things after I punched him in his face and broke his nose. I told you not to worry about it Yuna."

Her eyes widened, "You... you remembered my name?" 

He dropped his stuff from the shock that was in Yuna's voice. This was first time he actually did say her name to her face. "Uh yeah, I do remember your name. It's really not that hard to forget." he shrugged trying to act cool.

She blushed a little, "I wish I could be able to have good memory like you because sadly, I forgot your name, and I don't recall you telling me your name at all?"

Jihoon looked up at her after picking up his stuff from the floor, "I'm Jihoon." he said giving he a casual handshake. "It's nice to properly meet you." 

She giggled, "It's nice to properly meet you too Jihoon." she gave him a handshake back, but there was something still stuck in her mind, "But I just need to know, do your eyes actually glow? Is that one of the things that is interesting about you? Would you tell me?"

Jihoon sighed, "Look, everything that he said is completely insane, and as I said before, there's nothing for you to worry about."

Yuna nodded, "I just want to be sure. I don't want you to feel like you can't trust me."

I'm sorry Yuna, it's not that I don't trust you, it's the fact that I don't really trust myself. I just don't want you to be part of this whole mess and to see you get hurt again. I just need more time.
