Chapter 22 His Queen
Kindred Spirits (COMPLETED/Under Editing)"Here I am...saving you, but it seems like you're expecting someone else..." he said with a slow shake of his head. Seemingly disappointed about something and began to walk away.
I tiredly look at his back I know that I like someone else, but why is it I can't let go of you? My eyes nearly bulged out of its own socket on that thought.
Just why does it keep on slipping off of my mind? Why do I get this budding feeling that seems to grow without my permission? Or do I even have to gave it permission to grow? Or maybe...I'm just denying it all over again?
Because denying is better than I caught myself in a forbidden gem.
And then I realized something..
Wait.
Why the heck is he here?! He should be in the hospital for heaven's sake! My eyes grew large from the sudden realization of my dazed mind.
I ran after him and caught his arm "what?" He asks in irritation.
"You should be in the hospital, why are you here?" I asked, almost breathless. I'm worried, alright. I can't help it, it's my fault! I should've been more careful of my surroundings specially what I eat.
He laughed, but it is obviously forced "And here I am baring my soul to a clueless one, really" he said, more to himself and turn to me "Because I can, and I will" he said and walked away.
"Wait!" I exclaimed and ram after him again but a Janitor came and I nearly bump into him.
Joon Gi quickly grab a hold of my shirt and pull me towards him. He sigh "How can trouble sniff you, I don't know. Tsk tsk tsk" he said and let go of my shirt like a tissue he just used. I frown on that thought.
We walked through the hallways quietly "Why aren't you in a hospital?" I said in a whisper.
"Because I know that you're will get in trouble"
"Why do you keep on helping me?" I asked through the empty hallways and he stopped walking.
"That..." He said, a ghost of smile tugging his lips "...I'm still finding out why" he added. I look at him and he is already looking afar "You weren't supposed to be in the picture...it's just that you came unexpectedly" he said with a sigh.
"What do you mean?" I curiously lift an eyebrow.
He look back at me squarely in the eyes. He ducked a bit so that his head and my head are on the same level.
He inched closer and I back away.
What the heck?!
My heart just pumped blood two times faster!
"I guess I don't want you to be involved into whatever is going on" his eyes turned sad "...you're too innocent" he said softly while looking into my eyes. He smiled when I backed away and pat my head.
He walked away and the sky decided to wipe our school clean, it rained.
I remembered his jacket and I look at the soft leather one on my shoulder. He might get more sick and so I ran to him "Ya! Lee Joon Gi!" I yelled but he is not listening. I don't know if he is doing it intentionally or unintentionally to get rid of me.
I frown when he crossed the road. This hard headed! Seriously! "Ya!" I followed him and trip because of the slippery road.
I groan in pain
"Ji eun!" he called my name and I can't help ut to smile. I look dumb right now but I don't care, maybe i'm just happy? I don't know, the fact that he cares about me is one thing and the fact that a feeling is starting to grow inside me is another thing. How can I juggle this two things at once and appear normal to his eyes? He is very observant, that I know and I'm afraid if this feeling is exposed to him because he has already a girl in his heart and I don't have a plan to interfere.
I hang my head low as he crouch down and check the wound on my knee "Are you okay?" He asks a
