Chapter 49 : Lucky Shot

Jungkook and I are like going back and forth. Yesterday we were just having fun during dinner at his enormous penthouse and now we are solely glaring at each other in the cafeteria.

From what I can see on my table, he is seating with Vanessa and some two other boys. They're probably Jaehyun and Eunwoo, they all look nice and gorgeous. Maybe that's the reason why Vanessa keeps gluing herself to Jungkook.

A minute later, two ladies joined them and they all seem to enjoy each other's company. Seeing how built and fit their bodies are, they might be from the same field.

When Jungkook looked at my direction again, I faced my food and started eating.

He seems fine, I don't have to watch him Hoseok.

It's a good thing all I said that time to Hoseok was that I'll try. Jungkook clearly doesn't need my help anymore now that he easily gets friends unlike me.

I finished my food abruptly and made my way out of the cafeteria. I wandered around the campus' garden and brought out my sketch journal. It is ironic how I'm pissed at Jungkook and the only way for me to take my mind off of him was to sketch my best memories with him.

Last night, I started sketching the day when we both went to the city of Seattle. I thought he said he loves me and I still laugh whenever I think of it. How could I possibly hear his words that way? How could I hope for something too much?

I continued sketching what I did last night until our lunch break finishes.

Our next class is Photography and finally, our professor is present. Today our topic was Portrait Photography and our professor allowed us to go out and ask random people to be our subjects. He also told us to take photos manually and he will deduct points if we did it with automatic settings.

Aside from failing at Photography every semester, I also suck at socializing with other people so this activity is going to be very difficult for me.

I looked around and noticed that my classmates are already talking to other people, asking them to be their subjects. Some of them are starting already while I'm just here sitting quietly on a bench.

I breathe slowly to stop myself from being frustrated. All I need is to ask someone, if they declined then it's fine, and if they agreed that's great. Stop sulking and work, Deanna.

I spent most of my time courageously asking strangers for a bit of their time. A lot declined which is fine, just like what I told myself, but what vexes me is when some of my classmates asked the same persons and they agreed. What does that make me look like?

Of course, the world is still the habitat of the good people and some allowed me to borrow some of their time, or more like waste their time. Whenever they ask me if they can take a look, I would always smile awkwardly and show my ugly shots to them. As a sign of respect, I lie to them that I finally got a good one and they leave without knowing how unpleasant their photos were.

My weakness in this course is photography, I know it's a form of art that's why I took the subject to challenge myself.

The rest of my classmates are clearly having fun and amazed by each other's shots of others. Sighing, I sat on a bench again.

Looking at the gallery of my camera, I wanted to smack myself for being so stupid. I forgot to adjust its ISO to two hundred like what our professor instructed.

I have to repeat.

Deleting all the photos I took earlier, I set the ISO to two hundred. While I'm sitting on a bench, I looked for new subjects to asked but unlike earlier, the people roaming around the campus are starting to lessen. Not until I heard a name.
