Avoided•Han Seungwoo

➯Chapter 2•Edited💚

Jinree's POV

The bell rang and students got up and rushed out, but Seungwoo was still looking outside the window. "uhm... its already recess." I said to him. He looked at me and smiled "i'll be out later" he blankly said and looked away. This was the first time I heard his voice, Its soo angelic. Me and Eunsang walked out to head to the cafeteria.

"Hey, Jinree! Eunsang!" We both looked behind and saw two boys running towards us. I recognised that both of them are from our class and I smiled at them. "oh hey.. uhm" Eunsang greeted, trying to think of their names. "Oh we haven't introduced ourselves yet, I'm Wooseok and this is Junho" The guy introduced, pointing towards the other guy. Both of them looked handsome.

This school is filled of handsome faces, argh! "Oh, hello!" I said, smiling at them. "Maybe you two would like to join us and our other friends in the cafeteria, I promise you they are all nice" Wooseok said, We both nodded and followed him to their table in the cafeteria.

"Hey guys, These two are new here so be nice." Wooseok said to the bunch of people in this table. "Hi i'm Jinree and this is Eunsang, My older brother" I said and gave them a smile. We sat at the vacant seats and they introduced theirselves to us.

"So these are Seungyoun, Yohan, Hangyul, Dongpyo, Minhee, Hyeongjun, Dohyun, and Saemi, My girlfriend" Wooseok said as he introduced his friends and his girlfriend. Saemi unnie looks so pretty, while everyone is really Handsome. A round of greetings were given to us, making us feel welcomed. "Jinree, Eunsang, I hope both of you enjoy your stay here!" Saemi unnie said and smiled at us. Wow she's also very nice!

"Anyways, Jinree sits next to Seungwoo" Junho said, They all looked at me, amazed. I wondered why so I asked them "Why? what up with sitting next to him?" I said in confusion. "Well, I guess you haven't heard the rumors yet." Minhee said. "No we haven't yet, what are they about?" Eunsang said.

"Well the thing is, those rumors are pretty bad. Seungwoo used to be very popular in this school because of his looks and good grades. But suddenly this girl named Hwang Chaeji came into the picture" Seungyoun said. "They dated for a year, but then one day pictures of Seungwoo was seen around the campus, those pictures were him and Chaeji's bestfriend, Jeon Hyemi. The picture showed a guy who everyone said to be Seungwoo, tying up Hyemi and what looks to be 'raping' her." Hangyul continued, I was in total shock.

"That issue spreaded fast in the campus, He was suspended for only 3 months, since there was no proof that it was indeed him. He and Chaeji made a scene and broke up" Yohan also stated. I was so shocked at what I just learnt, I didn't know how to react. I didn't have the right to judge him yet since I never knew him at all. "Do you guys believe the rumors?" Eunsang asked. "Honestly, No." Hyeongjun said.

"He was a nice guy, He was never included in any fight or whatsoever" Dongpyo said. "I always saw Hyemi look at Seungwoo in another way, like there was lust in her eyes so I suspected that she likes him alot" Saemi added.

"So you all are suspecting that Chaeji and Hyemi planned everything?" I asked and they all nodded. How can they do that to him?! and stupid of the students who believed, tsk. "I always saw Chaeji as a bitch, She was my classmate back then and she always looked at me with hate in the eyes even though I never did anything to her" Saemi added, looking annoyed at the memory.

"And to think that she tried flirting with everyone in this table except you two and Saemi clearly shows that she is a slut." Wooseok stated. "She'll probably go for you next Eunsang, I heard her whispering to Hyemi about you awhile ago in class" Junho said.

"what does this Chaeji girl look like?" Eunsang said "You saw the girl infront of Seungwoo who had brown hair and alot of make up? that's her, and the one next to her is Hyemi." Junho said. That girl?! she kept looking at my brother when she had the chance.

"That girl?! I saw her stealing glances at you when she was talking to her seatmate!" I told Eunsang, He was really shocked. "Well I have to look out now" He said with a hint of fear in his voice.

"Enough talking about those rumors, Lets go out tomorrow after school!" Dohyun said. "sureee" they all cheered. "Both of you come with us, okay? welcome to the group!" Hangyul exclaimed. Just after we finished eating, The bell rang that means recess is over, We still have lunch later though.

"Lets meet up again later at lunch!" Wooseok said and bid farewell to the others. Turns out Saemi will be in our next class which is Math and Wooseok at the other room which is Korean Literature so he accompanied Saemi to class, So sweet of him. Saemi unnie is really lucky to have him. "So see you guys later, bye!" Wooseok said as we reached our classroom. He gave Saemi a kiss on the cheek and left to his classroom.

We head into class and sat next to Saemi. Just then, The teacher came in and made me and Eunsang introduce ourselves. I noticed Chaeji was in this class but Hyemi wasn't. "Hey unnie, what class is Hyemi in now?" I asked "Korean Lit." she answered, looking annoyed, and I exactly knew why. Its because Wooseok is in the same class as her. "She is head over heels for Seok you know, It frightens me." She said again, I felt sad for her, But i'm sure Wooseok won't do anything to ruin their relationship.

"Seungwoo is also in that class" Saemi said and looked at me. "I feel sorry for him, Why don't you guys try to befriend him?" I asked. "We were already friends before the rumors, He was one of the squad members but the thing is, after those rumors spreaded, He distanced himself from us" She said "We really wanted to help him during those times but he kept pushing us away" she continued "ohh" was all I could say.

After our small talk I looked outside the window since we weren't really doing anything, It was like free time but the teacher was there. Well, If he pushes them away... I'll do my best and befriend him. I wont give up. I promise that to myself.
