"Woo-ah!" 

I used to love to hear people yell my name. Now it seems like a curse.

My stomach twists as i turn toward the familiar voice.

"I can't believe you came!" His voice gave a shrill at the word "believe". The hair on my back stood as he swung his arm over my shoulder. He radiated so much heat my shoulder felt to the point of boiling just standing there in the middle of the hallway. But i could only feel the cold sweat that broke out of me. I looked around, searching for someone. Anyone. Please. My eyes stung with the rejection everyone i made contact with.

No. No. I can't cry now. Kang Ji Wook you cannot cry. I cannot cry. Please dont cry. 

He and his group walked me to an empty classroom. I looked down, afraid if i looked at him, i might break out. It'd only make him worse. He'd just smile and make it worse. 

He made his rounds with his "friends" and came back to a stop in front of me. I slowly lifted my face to meet his. His face was twisted in a way it made it hard to look at but what i did see and what i remember most clearly was his smile. The smile of a cheshire cat's. 

"Now. Let's get started."
