Chapter4
Death Date: 11-18-1914[Jaehee]
I'm dead. I'm dead. I'm dead.
Damn, how could I forget. Today is the last day for club registrations.I looked at my watch and mentally screamed, just 10 minutes before the official close. If I don't get into a club, I'd end up in the sanitation club. The dreaded club.
I'm so dead. I don't wanna spend this semester tending the garden, mopping the hallways, and worst of all, cleaning the bathroom. I dont even clean my own room. I should have joined Wendy at the Historians club.
I felt like crying because of the speed the driver is driving. So slow. Perfect. Great timing.
I was about to shout to driver to drive faster when suddenly, I felt hands wrapped around my arms. I looked up to see who it was and saw a handsome young man, probably going to the same university as mine. Somehow, he looked very familiar. But, what the fudge is this guy holding me for?!!
"Excuse me, you don't just hold a stranger in public. This is totally rude." I told him.
"Stand," he whispered. What the?
I looked at him, shocked. "W-why?" Okay this is starting to get creepy. He looked so serious. Is this guy insane? What a waste.
He glared at me impatiently before pulling me up. How dare this man!
"Excuse me! Please stop the bus! Were getting off here," he yelled. The look on his face was indescribable.
As the bus stopped, he hurriedly pulled me with him. "Hey! I need to go to the university! Don't pull me. Hel--" I was about to cry for help when he covered his other hand over my mouth.
"I'm so sorry, my girlfriend and I just got into a fight. We need to fix this. Umm, take care." He bowed to the other passengers before getting off the bus with me. Girlfriend? He's definitely crazy.
"Yah! Let go! I have something important to do. Don't drag me into your craziness." I was literally screaming at him in the middle of the streets.
He sighed as he looked at the bus. The look on his eyes was really weird. It looked sad and empathetic. Wait. Why is he sad for a bus? Weird guy. Must have overdosed on studying. Someone call the doctor.
"Excuse me? What was that for? Are you even listening to me?" I lifted my chin up and crossed my arms. This time, he was already looking at me.
He didn't respond. He looked bothered.
I rolled my eyes. I gave my watch a quick glance. 4:03 pm. Great. Sanitation club here I come. I'm so happy, I wanna cry.
"I hate you," I mumbled. I just wanna go home and bawl my eyes out. I wanna lock myself into a room and kill people--not literally kill, but I do kill people in my mind when I'm upset.
He sighed. "You should even thank me. I saved you."
"Saved? You should have saved me from being in the sanitations club."
His eyes widened. "Oh right. The clubs."
"Don't tell me you haven't joined a club too? Oh wait, we go to the same university?"
His shoulders dropped.
"Great, now I'll be seeing you most of the time." I said, sarcasm filling every word I utter. "Wait, but why did you just drag me earlier there? You still haven't told me the reason. I'm waiting for an explanation."
He ignored me and started walking away. "Wow. You're ignoring me now? Thank you so much." I yelled but he didn't even look back. I ran and started walking beside him.
He tried to look away everytime I glance up at him. Very weird. Maybe this guy likes me.
"Yah," I paused as I grabbed his ID. "Kim Jongin, if you really like me that much. You didn't have to do that. You could just have approached better." I told him and he just laughed out loud. Wow. His mood swing is definitely amazing. First, he acted all serious and now, he's laughing.
"I don't like you."
"Then why else would you do that?" I retorted.
Suddenly, an ambulance came roaring by. Not a minute after, other two ambulance passed by. I wonder why there were many ambulances. Jongin looked even more bothered, he's probably wondering too.
Then suddenly my phone beeped. It was a message from Wendy. 'Hey, where are you right now? I heard a bus got into an accident just now, outside the university. It crashed into a post.'
A bus? Could it possibly be the bus we were riding on just minutes ago. I felt goosebumps crawling on my skin as I looked unbelievably at Jongin.
He couldn't have possibly known beforehand, right? No way. Just impossible.
I faced him. "You, just what are you?"
