Chapter 18
Unknown DiaryIt seems that the past few days’ rumors took a toll on Yongguk’s body; he wasn’t smiling as he used to before and he wasn’t the friendly teacher but the scary and angry one. Those past few days for him seems to never end, every student would whisper even thought the principal categorically stated that he isn’t dating Mir. Now the sky is gloomy even though it is spring. He is sitting in one of the cafés near his home watching people passing by, he wasn’t alone – he is waiting for his co-worker and friend, to come from the men’s toilet.
“I’m done; you can tell me what happened.” Yongguk looked at Byunghee just as he sat on his chair.
“Well what exactly do you want?”
“Well, start from why was this kid in your home for a weekend.” Byunghee said and sipped from his tea.
“Do you remember when Mir and his best friend Cheondung suddenly had an argument and the students were around them looking…” Yongguk started, G.O only hummed indicating that he remembers about the accident. “Well Mir…”
As the sky is gloomy just like his heart, Cheondung is waiting for a certain boy at the bus stop; he knows that Mir is always riding the bus when he doesn’t feel walking, and because of those rumors he might take the bus like yesterday. Not a minute later Mir shows up, shocked to see Cheondung sitting there with head hung low, he stands up immediately as he sees him – almost running to him just like the old times. But Mir steps back as he sees Cheondung’s happy face.
“I want to talk with you.” Cheondung starts as he anticipates an approval from Mir. Mir on the other hand isn’t in the mood to talk with anyone today – since those rumors started he felt watched and some girls were threatening him to stay away from Yongguk even though he said he was not in a relationship with him.
“I don’t want to hear anything!”
“Please listen to me…” Cheondung begged but was interrupted by Mir immediately.
“NO, I DON’T WAN’T TO HEAR ANYTHING, I have enough of it!”Mir started. “I hate being in this school, I don’t want people to think that I sleep with the teacher even when this is a lie, a ing rumor that someone had started it, so please I don’t want to hear apologies or any explanations.” Mir finished, face angry and at the same time sad - he didn’t want to scream or be angry but he had enough of it as he was rejected and now called .
Mir glances at Cheondung for the last time, turns around and walks away as if this never happened, but it was for the best, Cheondung adds mentally as he sees Mir’s figure slowly fading away.
Mir exhales deeply and inhales shortly after, tears are beginning to form in his eyes, he wish he could just go to Himchan’s apartment and stay there – things are getting complicated since the rumor and Himchan isn’t taking it well – he has been skipping school and he begins to worry. Daehyun and Youngjae are reassuring him that he is okay and that he needs time to recover although they don’t know anything about their relationship with Yongguk – but he just shrugs it off he know his hyung is stronger than he thinks.
As Mir walks further and further away from the bus station he spots the playground near his favorite restau
