"Sure." I understood his meaning. Leaving Jungkook to solve his problems with a teacher in the principal's room.

"As you have seen, he clearly does not wants to share his information with me. Each and everytime I have attempted to ask him normal questions he simply answers me but about his family," I kept babbling to him. Not because he and I were really close. But because The old man standing in front of me had a duty from the FBI.

A duty to ensure about Jeon Jungkook's unsolved mystery.

"I don't understand, Jieon!" The elder man exclaimed in utter disbelief and confusion. Interrupting my rambling.

"He didn't even said a word. I asked numerous of questions but he didn't talked with me. As if he was pretending to be mute. Can't he not talk?" He asked furiously. He was heavily offended as I noticed his wrinkly face painting an expression full of anger and disappointment.

I decided to take both truth and false to make Jungkook in a favour. Since I have known the Principal from my junior life, I saw how he hid his anger and expressed it through various different ways. If a student came to bad side of him he would try to teach him a lesson through multiple assignments, homeworks and detentions.

Thus, I came to the conclusion to sugercoat my words.

"Sir, Jeon Jungkook has just survived from a terrible experience. He did spoke to me but he is really shocked. I think if we give him enough time he could bring up enough courage to answer our questions?" I decided to not jumble up my words but still winced slightly as I realized how jumbled it sounded.

But to my luck, He seemed convinced and instantly calmed himself. I took it as a signal of how terrible sugarcoated words could also make a person calm in moments.

"I understand," He said as he slightly scratched his head from embarassment. His sudden outburst was unexpected but I didn't mind. I would have reacted the same way if not, worse.

"I would try to tell the teachers about that. But I was thinking how can he make friends if he is unwilling to engage in a conversation with someone who isn't you?" He said as I noticed his face taking in a shade of genuine worry.

I realized it too. This school, unlike other schools in the town, is really famous and prestigious for it's academic results and various sports and subjects excells. But, unlike other schools, there are many bullies. Harsh ones. Strong ones.

When I was here there were bullies too. Harsh ones, Strong ones.

Flashback

I came out early to school. My hair softly tied. I saw some students entering their classes with an earphone hanged on their ears and one stray.

I enviously looked at them, jealous of their possessions. I don't have much to buy earphones or gadgets. All I can rely is my friend's gadgets. I entered the classroom to see two people already. The popular kid, Kim Seokjin and some one I do not know.

When I came to the class I saw Seokjin smiling to me. I smiled back and immediately sat at my seat in the front.

As I kept writing some lyrics on the stray sheet, I saw some shifting outside. Some people came to take Seokjin, i guessed.

As soon as he exited the classroom I saw Kim Namjoon.

The guy who despised me.

"Hey Loner." He mockingly addressed me. I ignored him. Atleast tried to. Until he grabbed my sheet of paper, lyrics half-done.

"When I talk to you atleast look towards me, numbskull." He said as his teeth gritted.

I nervously gulped at him. He eyed my face.

"So pathetic." He said as he left the classroom along with my half written song.

I helplessly look over the song I wrote. I don't have the courage or power to bring it back.

I kept looking at Namjoon's back until it disappears..

along with taking my heart.
