Changjo’s POV

I couldn’t sleep at all last night because I keep thinking about what happened yesterday: the hit I get from Minhee and her teary eyes that couldn’t go out from my mind and of course my hyung’s and Ricky’s words

So because I was up earlier I decided to go to school in time.

I met Teen Top as usual in the morning and greeted them. I only heard them greeting me back and then they didn’t utter a word. I knew that they still ignoring me so I decided to go to my classroom since I don’t have any places to go to.

___________________________________

I am standing in front of the door and feel my heart so heavy. Probably because behind this door there is the girl I hurt yesterday.

Tsk! What am I talking about? Am I not the one who was bleeding and almost get his nose broken? So why am I feeling nervous when I did nothing wrong?

Ok! That’s true I did something wrong but I don’t think it was that bad so why Minhee almost cried. It’s not the first time I ? And why my hyung was that disappointed on me when he knew I like making evil plans? And same goes to Ricky’s reaction too and Teen Top’s.

Aish! This is really driving me crazy.

I finally decided to enter the classroom and went to my seat. Of course I didn’t bother myself greeting the teacher who was already there.

Once I arrived there I knew that Minhee felt my presence but just decided to ignore me

Aish! This little brat, how dare she ignore me? Anyway I am not here to fight with her.

After we had that little eye contact between us and I get ignored again I decided to sit in my place.

I felt really uncomfortable at that instant and wanted to talk with her. Because I just had that weird feeling which make me upset knowing that she is mad at me and will not talk to me again.

Yes, I know it’s crazy to feel like that; but since the day I knew this girl who is setting beside me, I am not surprised at all about the weird things that are happening around me or more exactly the weird feelings I have.

A “good morning” slipped out of my mouth without me knowing it

When I was back to my sense and knew what I just said I felt it was wrong because I never greet her. I feel confused too about the reason why I did that today
before I could say anything else I heard a “Good morning” from her

woah! She just greeted me back, right? But why am I happy? She even replied coldly so why I feel a little relieved?

Anyway because I had a reply from her I decided to take the chance and talk about what happened yesterday but I just received a really scary glare

In my entire life there are only two glares that intimidate me; Hyung’s and now Minhee’s.

I don’t know if it was because of that glare or just because I couldn’t take what I were feeling anymore, that a “sorry” escaped my mouth

Minhee turned to me and was looking at me with wide eyes and I was doing the same. My eyes were so wide open when I realized that I just apologized to someone. What of course I don’t do at all only to Teen Top and Minho hyung

“w-what did you just say” she asked me not sure about what she just heard. Before I could speak the teacher cut me

“Lee Minhee can you answer this question?” Mr. Kim asked her

She didn’t even look at him and just continued to stare at me still waiting me to repeat

“YAH LEE MINHEE, I am speaking with you” Mr. Kim talked again with a serious tone this time

“aish! Can’t you just shut up for a second because I am in a more important conversation than your damn question?” she replied him, sending him his scary glare.

Silence filled the classroom since everyone was too shocked to utter a word and one of those shocked person there was me who was really surprised of Minhee’s braveness. Minhee also was shocked from her own words that escaped . But the most shocked person was our teacher because a student just told him to shut up and she swore.

When he got all what happened he screamed. I never saw him this mad and to say the truth he is scary right now

“LEE MINHEE GET OUT RIGHT NOW” he said pointing to the door “AND WE NEED TO TALK AFTER THE CLASS” he finished trying to calm down

“I-I am sorry seonsaeng” she whispered but I could hear it since she was beside me

She packs up all her things and went outside with her head hanging down.

When the door was close and she was out of sight the class continued but my heart felt heavier because I am the reason behind what just happened to her. Because I really couldn’t take this anymore, I get up from my seat and went out of the class letting the teacher screaming my name but I just ignored him and continued running.

I was searching for Minhee but I couldn’t see her anywhere. Did she go home? No this is impossible since the teacher said he needs to talk with her. At that instant I saw a familiar figure under the tree behind the school. That figure was the one I was searching for. She was lying down on the green grass listening to music.

Seeing her peacefully lying there I decided to go and apologize properly to her not caring about anything else.

            Minhee’s POV

After the teacher told me to go out I did as he say without trying to defend myself because I was still shocked from the “sorry” I heard from Changjo

Ay! What am I talking about? Perhaps it was just me imagining it.

I decided to stay under this beautiful tree, listening to music because it feels so peaceful.

But of course that beautiful moment didn’t last too long since I felt someone’s present. When I looked up to see who it was I was surprised to see Changjo standing there nervously looking at me.

I get in a seating position since I knew he is here to talk to me. He will not get out of the classroom and come here just for nothing.

I watched him sitting beside me but I could feel that he was hesitating like he is afraid I will scream at him or perhaps hit him again.

Anyway when he started to talk he pulled me out of my thought

“emm… I am here to…emm…you know…emm” he tried to talk but he was feeling so nervous that he couldn’t stop himself from stuttering

“Why are you here instead of class? What do you want to talk about with me?” I said trying to sound cold and mad but I softened as I heard him talk again

“I am sorry ok?” he said “emm… I know that I did something bad yesterday but I didn’t thought it will be that bad since I always tease you. But seeing your reaction… I don’t know I felt guilty?” he finished the last sentence more like a question than a statement. So I heard well back in the class, he did really apologize to me.

*omo! he is cute talking to me with that nervousness* I thought.

Yah! What am I talking about? Am I not mad at him?

Anyway I decided to since I feel my heart already forgave him

“emm… so you’re forgiving me right?” he talked again

“NO! why would I forgive you?” I said still trying to act mad raising my eyebrow

“Nae? Yah! Come on. It’s not like it’s my first time doing a bad thing, this time I think it’s just you who overreacting” he told me again but with less nervousness

Tsk! He is here to apologize or give me a lesson about how I have to react to people’s jokes?

“woah! And you are still talking back tp me? I think you aren’t here to really apologize but to make fun of me more, right?” I said sending him a glare

“A-aniyo, it’s not like that. It’s just…emm…” he tried to talk again but this time searching for the right words to express himself. I think this is his first time apologizing to someone. “I am sorry~” he whined seeing that I didn’t tell him that he was already forgiven

“aigoo! Kyeopta!” I talked out loud pinching his cheeks. What am I doing right now?

My expression and Changjo’s are the same: shocked.

“oops!” I exclaimed

We stood like that looking at each other’s wide eyes until Changjo pushed me lightly not wanting to hurt me perhaps

“WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?” he said turning around “I-I came here to apologize but you weirdo girl is..is..aish! Anyway do you accept my apologize or not?” he continued

“S-Sorry” I whispered since I knew what I just did “A-And you’re forgiven” I stuttered. Changjo turned around brightly, probably feeling happy that I accept his apologize but I quickly faced the other direction since I didn’t want him to see my reddish checks that I didn’t know why they turned like that suddenly.

Is it because I felt embarrassed because of what I just did to him? Or is it because of the close distance we had just now? Anyway I really don’t understand what happened.

We stood in an awkward silence until we heard the bell rang.

“I am going first to class since Mr. Ahn is probably in his way, and because he hates latecomers you should come too arraso?” Changjo spoke breaking the silence

I just nodded my head and followed beside him. Once we arrived to the classroom; there was Mr. Kim waiting for me still mad

“So you finally decided to show up miss Lee” he said gritting his teeth. I really felt scared at that instant because I knew I will get in a big trouble, but before I could apologize or do anything Changjo spoke

“It wasn’t her fault”

The teacher turned to him confused

“I think I wasn’t the only one who heard what she replied me back in the class mister Choi?” Mr. Kim told him coldly

“I told you it’s NOT her fault so don’t dare to punish her or anything” Changjo talked again angrily this time since the teacher replied him, seeing that I quickly squeezed Changjo’s arm sending him my pleading gaze for him to calm down and I really succeed since I saw he was not that tensed

“It was my fault sir. I threatened her to speak to you like that and I told her if she doesn’t do so I will hurt her” he lied sending a glare to the teacher who felt scared

“S-Since the case is like this I will forgive that behavior miss Lee” Mr. Kim said nervously and then went in his own way.
Me and Changjo went inside the class where Mr. Ahn was already inside but he didn’t say anything about us coming late since he probably know what was going on with Mr. Kim.
