[This is like the third update these two days so please make sure you read the previous chapters so you don't skip anything or get confuse!]   CHAPTER 024: Alone And Scared     Chanyeol gets to Yuri's house ten minutes after he leaves. Yuri lives close by, so him running cut the trip even shorter.    Now they're in bed, watching Tv until they get tired because Chanyeol is sleeping over- the usual.   They're cuddled up together, lying down. Yuri's head rest on his chest while his hand is wrapped around her.         "Why did you take so long?"    Chanyeol blurts out the answer without thinking, "I was with Hana."    Yuri looks up at him with a glare, jealous for obvious reasons.        "Of course you were," she mutters and then moves away, annoyed.    Chanyeol frowns, "What's wrong?"        "Nothing, I just want to sleep."   Chanyeol pulls on her arm, twisting her body around so she could face him, "You always do that. Don't ignore the subject and stay mad. Talk to me about it."    Yuri sits up, angry, "You want me to talk? Fine, I'll talk. I'm annoyed and jealous of Hana."    Chanyeol forgets about TV or any form of entertainment around him, "Wait, what?"   Yuri sighs.          ************************       You notice the hickey on Kris's throat when he sticks his tongue out at you, his mock expression too close to your face. He was teasing you about how you can't flare your nostrils.    You freeze when you see it. It's purple, right next to his Adam's apple.    You're mad.         "Nice hickey," you say.    Kris stops his mocking and steps back. His face turns a bit red and he gives out a nervous laughter, "Is it noticeable?"   You roll your eyes, "It looks like a bruise made with a baseball." And you keep walking.    Kris follows right after, catching up to you quickly because of his long legs.        "Was it that red hoodie girl from the bus stop yesterday?" You ask, not even needing a confirmation.         "Her name is Soyeon. She's in our grade."    Great, like I wanted to know, you think.        "Did you have fun with her?" You force a smirk, "Were your erted needs satisfied?"    Kris doesn't notice the tone in your voice and he answers casually, "Couldn't. It turns out it still hurts when I'm touched down there. She barely grabbed it and I was whimpering." He laughs a little, you don't. "So we just kissed and it turned into this," he points at his hickey, "But that's all."   You stay quiet.    It's silent on his part until he speaks up two minutes later.         "I asked her out on a date," he says. He wants to know what you think about that. Your reaction- he wants to see it.        "I thought what you did was a 'date'."   Kris shakes his head, once again ignoring your obvious irritated and disapproving tone.         "No, That was more like some sort of hook up," he says. "But then I actually had fun so I thought of meeting her again. She's a lot more than what I thought."    You listen.         "I kind of like her, actually," he continues, "She's pretty, she's smart, she's sweet, and very feminine. She giggles like a kid and I love it. She's also really good in bed as far as we got. Not to mention, she seems mature. And her body! I love her body."    You want to punch him. "Yeah, she does have a nice body." You don't really know why you're agreeing. It's not like you're wrong either. Soyeon fits the standard put in every magazine and runway show. She's tall and skinny. She has long, thin legs- thigh gaps and all! And you're the complete opposite!         "We're here," Kris says, turning the corner towards the school gate.    You are so irritated at Kris and you don't know exactly why.         "When's your date with Soyeon?" You ask.    Kris keeps walking but answers, "Today after school. We're gonna go to the movies and then to eat some food. Maybe go bowling, it depends on what she's into."    You guys are in school ground, entering the school and the hallway.    Your eyes are on fire, "I see you treat girls very nicely."    Kris shrugs, "Not you though. But I like Soyeon, sort of, so it'd be nice to make her happy so we could work out."   You scoff, "I'm going to class."   Kris smiles when he sees you walk away, stomping your way down the hallway.         **************      

Since the accident in the cafeteria when you had your panic attack, you stay stuck to the idea that everything is the same. Nothing will change because of the confrontation the students had with you. They're not gonna treat you better or worse. Even if now you know they hate you- be it for jealousy or anger. They're gonna ignore you like they did before, you think. 

  You are wrong.    Both good and bad things happen because of the Cafeteria accident.   Things did change- both good and bad. Good because it seems like the boys from your class are starting to speak to you. Even if it's only small talk like Tao asking you for a pencil or Sehun saying he likes your shoes. It's small but it's comforting, giving you a change.    But it's also bad. Bad because everyone stares at you with hate or just mild annoyance. They bump into you in the hallway when before they wouldn't even look you in the eyes. Yet when you look back at them, they pretend they weren't at fault. It's like they want to hurt you but anonymously without actually confronting you. They're scared of you but hate you and want to see you suffer all at once.    You notice it and it starts to make you paranoid and anxious. You try to hold back the tears and the feeling of wanting to disappear.        "I can make it through this day," you cheer yourself on.    You want to talk to Kris, sit with him in lunch and tell him what's going on and how you're being pushed around since earlier. You may fight, but he listens and helps you.    You also want to find Chanyeol, but you know that's not right. His girlfriend will get mad at you and then she's gonna get mad at him, and maybe break up with him and you don't want that. Chanyeol loves Yuri, the last thing he would want is to end their relationship.    You stick to talking to Kris.          ***************     You can't talk to Kris. During class, he doesn't pay attention to you and instead focuses on his phone, making sure not to get caught by the teacher.    Eunsul is not here today, so the day drags on as horrible.    You wonder what she's doing now.    Chanyeol and Yuri are paying attention to class.    Chanyeol hasn't seen you yet, you think. You haven't even had any eye contact but you wish he'd turn around and smile at you. But it seems like he wouldn't look back at you even if they paid him to do so.    It hurts you because just yesterday he held your hand and smiled at you.         "It's almost lunch time, so you guys can close your books now," Mr. Nam says, "Remember to read pages 206 for next class."    Then he walks out just as the bell rings.    All the students rush out of class. Kris being one of them, so you try to catch up with him.    But you stop because when you think Kris may be waiting for you outside like usual, he's instead walking towards a girl, hugging her comfortably as if they were best friends or married or something.    He kisses her on the cheek when they pull away and you see her face. It's Soyeon.    You stay still, watching them walk down towards the cafeteria with their arms around eachother.    Everyone is staring at them, whispering. The girls look annoyed and the guys are cooing and trying

Chapter 34: Started to read this story yesterday, must admit that it affected my night. Had a hard time sleeping, couldn't stop reading. You are a painter with words, just as in the story about April. Love your way to describe people, you make it possible to me to visualize everyone, even Nana and Papa. You are a great writer, keep up the good work.

Chapter 33: I could sing praises to Hana for how mature and calm she approached this subject with chanyeol. Let's be honest, this is HOW we wanted to act when we're in this kind of situation. Literally an ideal one. Hana you're amazing. I love her character.
