Ironic.
When I swore to never love again.I watch him take her by the hands grinning at her stupidly as he twines their fingers. She smiles at him and pinches his nose. What the hell? Why am I watching this. I turn and stomp away. I hear her voice calling out,
"Batman, thank you!"
"Whatever." I moodily stuffed my hands in my pants pocket, well that's great. That one was too interesting, she's dangerous. It's good that she has a boyfriend. Jiyong for that matter. It was kind of ironic really, but hell life is just a great expanse of irony. Who am I to question life structure anyway.

I find myself standing in front of the class as the teacher urges me to introduce myself. Jiyong was sitting at the back giving me two thumbs up in encouragement. In front of him sat his girl who was smiling at me and gave me a small wave with her fingers. I purse my lips in annoyance. This two idiots belong with each other.
"It's Choi. Choi Seung hyun." I told the class moodily, my eyes never leaving her. There were minute changes to her features when I said my name. Slight rounding of her eyes and her smile fell.

The class drags on. Home room was about class discipline and to be quite frank it was one of the most annoying thing after juvie. This woman has no back bone and after being heavily drilled into submission by juvie officers, her frail attempt to discipline felt like she was mocking me. I clench my fist controlling the anger that had always been my undoing, I absent mindedly glance at her and see Jiyong playing with her hair. I bolt to my feet, the steel legs of my chair gave a shrill protest as it drags on the surface of the floor. The teacher stares at me and I stare back willing her to say something when she didn't I walk up to the door and said:
"I need to take a piss." As I exited.

I stare at my reflection and berate myself. Why can't I calm down? And to be triggered by his hand on her hair... what the hell? I don't really understand it. I just met her this morning and I don't like her one bit. I let my hand touch my neck where she had pressed her lips on accidentally. I roll my eyes, who am I kidding, I obviously like her.
