It's Not Okay (Ch: 31)

Gulf's

"M-mew." I called Mew's name with an agitated tone while he's pulling me out of the building. I didn't have any chance to understand nor answer Mr. Kirigun's question because Mew already pulled me out of the Director's office and is now dragging me outside.

We saw our friends waiting for us outside and they all looked worried and confused at the same time as to why Mew is dragging me and why he looked so furious.

"Mew, Gulf, what happened?" Mild asked but before I could even answer, Mew had let go of my hand harshly and looked at me indignantly. And just by seeing the way he looks at me pained me.

"Do you have any fucking idea what have you done?!" He asked through gritted teeth, almost hissing. And I can't help but to feel nervous as I see his eyes flashing too much emotions. I don't know if he's either frustrated, worried or angry or maybe all of the above and that made my heart beat painfully.

"I-i'm just trying to defend you--"

"Well I don't need it! I told you not to be meddlesome! I told you to just hold my hand! You don't fucking know what you just did, Gulf!" He shouted and all our friends weren't able to utter any words as they are also clueless about what happened.

Even I, myself couldn't understand where Mew's coming from.

I just wanted to help him.

I just don't anyone to talk ill about him.

Was I wrong for wanting to defend the one I love?

I looked down at the ground and realized that my tears has already rolled down my cheeks.

'Why do you always have to make me feel like I'm out of your league, Mew?'

"I just wanted to protect you, Mew. I just don't want to see you get hurt by the same person all over again. I just wanted to show you that you're not alone and you don't have to deal with it alone cause I am here." My voice cracked as I say those things before looking at Mew. His expression somehow softened when he saw my face. "Tell me, Mew. Was I wrong for wanting to stand for you?" I asked him and he seemed surprised because of what he heard but then, he's Mew. One of the things he mastered is the ability to hide his real emotions from other people. He's good at putting up a facade.
