Elementals : Story of Colours || Jin

02 - Well-nigh

...

"What are you doing?"

...

"Sick freak with purple hair"

Jin chuckles, it was the first time a person didn't acknowledged him with purple hair, maybe the hatred is too big. Well now, Jin makes a mental note in his mind to dye his hair back to black. Maybe tomorrow?

Loud banging noise was heard and that makes Jin startled to core. He didn't even realised he fell asleep right after unpacking his things. Jin stays seated on the bed for a few seconds, rubbing his face and especially the eyes with his palms before finally he gets up and open the door of his room.

Well well, there you are the same two men stand in front of his room, faces decorated with the obvious bitterness. Jin wanted to laugh at them for the obvious failed trying to persuade the warden or whoever it is to let them change the dorm, but again, does it make it easier for him?

"You" the smaller man says while pointing out his finger to Jin's face.

"Stay away from us, from our friends. Since the management didn't give the permission for us to throw you away from this dorm or even to let us change room with other students, let's not get into each other ways" he says again.

Well it is not like Jin is the bad guy here looking for and making troubles everywhere. He wanted everything to run smoothly especially now that he is in the academy with barely a person or two he knew.

He wanted to make friends with his housemates at the very least since he just arrived but apparently that is not going to be happened now that Jin can clearly see the hatred from the two eyes. If looks could kill, Jin is sure he will be gone by the first time he met the two when they arrived at the front door of the dorm.

And they left his room. Well, it is not like they stepped into it though. Quietly Jin closes the door and let out a tiny sigh. He needs to get better and nice with everyone in the academy in which he is practically always being nice to people out there.

If he wanted to graduate from the academy with much ease then, he need to prevent himself getting into trouble. Maybe after a few days the two will calm down and open up to him, creating a welcoming atmosphere then Jin will have a talk with the two explaining himself.

After much thinking, Jin grabs his phone and send a message to Junghwan, asking the latter to accompany him.

"Wsup! Let's go out and grab something for the dorm, yeah? I will be waiting at the lobby"

The message stated. Well maybe Jin is not actually asking but more to forcing Junghwan.

"Yeah, will be there in 10 minutes, I need to buy something too"

The reply message he got from his only friend at the academy. Jin reaches for his sweater and wears it before stepping out from his room, shutting the door close. No one at the living room nor the kitchen. Maybe the two are in their own room or maybe they're hungry and went out to grab something.

Apparently Junghwan is a liar. It's been fifteen minutes since he stands alone at the lobby earning a few stares from the students who just got back from somewhere or who just arrived to register and stuff. The thing is, Jin didn't like the attention he got especially if the stares is too long from a group of a few people he didn't know.

It was like they were mocking him with their stares. Jin notices the three person has been around the lobby now for at least ten minutes without any clear reason. Maybe they were wondering around but Jin do appreciate it if they only do that, instead they look intensely at him like he is some kind of a beggar or something.
