January 21st

The day just started and I was getting ready for school. As always I looked out of the window. Weather was cold and my view was covered with thick fog.

I was not mad, to be honest, I love weather like this a lot.
I made myself a coffe. After finishing it I took my bag and left to school.

I was driving through the fog and saw nothing, until I came to my school. This hellish building was seenable from 300 miles.

I came to my locker and changed my shoes. I greeted some of my friends and headed to class. The first thing I saw in there was love of my life, Ha Rin. She was my girlfriend since freshman year.

“Kookie! Good morning!” she hugged me and I hugged her back.

“Good morning hun, I missed you. ” I kissed her forehead.

“So, am I invisible now or what?” I heard a voice I knew. It was my best best best friend Taehyung. We knew each other since we were 4 years old.

“Of course you are not, dummy. " I chuckled and gave him the male hug.

Then the bell rang. Everyone sat to their seats. I was sitting with Ha Rin. Taehyung was sadly in the other side of the room.

“Good morning class” an unknown face entered the classroom.

“I don't know this granny yet” Ha Rin whispered to my ear. We both chuckled.

“I am your new teacher till the end of this semester.  Mrs Clage had an accident. She fell down the stairs and now is in coma, because of injured brain. Today I won't be teaching you anything. You can study for other classes or just do anything you want, but be quiet.”
Our new teacher announced.

Taehyung came to my desk and sat on it. We started talking and Ha Rin went to talk with her friends.

After class I went to use the bathroom. As I finished and was walking to my class I saw the new teacher shouting at a student. He was from class of the 'more intelligent'. She was looking really angry. She pushed him and that made him fall down to the ground. She immediately looked around If anyone was there. I quickly hid behind the wall. The last thing I saw was her taking the boy somewhere holding his ear.

I noticed that the boy dropped his wallet. I picked it up, so I could return it  to him later.

When I got back into the class, something shocking happened. Ha Rin came to me all angry and slapped me pretty hard.

“And this was for what?” I asked holding my red cheek.

“Stop acting stupid! You know exactly what you did!" She said with an angry voice and left.

I didn't understand anything. Taehyung was looking at me with confusion in his eyes too. What did I do?

Ha Rin was ignoring me for rest of the classes. Why? I didn't do anything. I didn't go anywhere with another girl, I didn't ignore her, I didn't even steal her snack. What was wrong?

I couldn't stand the tense in our classroom, so I decided to leave sooner. I packed my stuff and went to the locker room. While I was changing my books, I sat down on the bench out of frustration. I put my head into my hands. Maybe in three minutes I heard door slam.
It was Taehyung.
“Are you going home?” Taehyung asked.

“Yes... Yes I am”

“I'll go with you!” Taehyung put his hand onto my shoulder.

“Fine.” I smiled
We both took our stuff and were ready to leave. As we were walking down the hallway semeone stopped us.

“Where are you going boys? You still have 3 classes.”

We turned around and saw the new teacher.

“Something happened at home, we really need to go.” I said.

“Don't forget to stay out of trouble.”
She said and left. Me and Taehyung ignored it and continued our way.

We decided to visit our favourite café. The waiters there knew us pretty well, we didn't even have to order they knew what to give us.

As we were drinking coffe and eating some cookies, I told Taehyung about what I witnessed in school today. I even showed him the wallet. We both knew that something was off.

After 2 hours of talking, we decided to go home. We were walking through a park to my car. The weather was still pretty cold and foggy. Because of the fog I didn't notice the man, who bumped into me. I fell to the ground. The man just continued his way and completely ignored me.

“What's wrong with you dude?” I asked while standing up. By the time I was back on my feet , the man was already gone.

He was really weird. He had long black coat and huge black shoes. I didn't even see his face.

After this I just drove Taehyung home. Actually we ended up playing videogames for 4 hours at his place. But after that I went home.

The first thing I did was to throw myself onto my bed. I was listening to some music laying down, when my wrist started to hurt. It felt like my wrist was getting cut off. I went to the bathroom and tied a wet towel around it. The pain was getting worse and worse.

I tried almost everything to get rid of the pain, but nothing worked. I started to worry that my wrist might be broken, but how? I wasn't doing anything.

After few minutes the pain started to fade away. I untied the towel. When I looked at my wrist I was in shock. There was a sign. I didn't know what that sign meant, but I didn't like it at all.

It looked like it was made with knife. The wound was at least 1 cm deep. I couldn't understand what was happening. I sat on the ground and just stared at my wrist.
