Chapter 20 [2/3]
Inside the classroom, Momo was trying to breathe in and out normally. Mina's finger gently touched her cheek, trailing down to her lips. She couldn't decide whether she should move or stay still. The touch was so gentle and tender. She never felt those feelings in her life, but again she never had relationship with anyone before. Perhaps it was girl's hand that it felt tender, or perhaps it was someone she cared and cared about her that she felt that way. Whatever it was, she really wished could embrace the feeling forever. 'Since when I turn to this mushy person, Tzuyu ang Jungyeon will laugh if they hear that' She smiled inwardly.
Mina moved gaze, following her fingers over Momo's skin; over her blonde hair, attractive natural eyebrows, long eyelashes, cute broad-tip nose, and sexy thin lips. She loved all of them. 'Love' A word that had never been in her life. She never felt it in her life, until she met the girl.
Momo wondered what Mina was thinking at moment. There was something different in the girl's eyes; it was sad for a moment before turned warm and bright. The girl then took her right arm, lifting it up, and leaning head down on her chest. "Mina,"
"Just for a while, I'm sleepy," Mina said, intertwining their fingers.
Momo just smiled. She let the girl having her rest. She brought hand to touch Mina's silky hair. The straight long hair was smooth in her hand. She felt Mina tightening her grip as she stroked her head. She inhaled, shutting eyes close.
Later, Momo was awoken by phone rings. She pushed body up and realized that she was alone. The light was on. 'Where's Mina?' She was disappointed to find the girl had left already. She then noticed uniform jacket suit over her upper body. 'It must be Mina' She smiled at the thought. She took her still ringing phone from pants pocket and answered the call. It was from Jungyeon.
"What's up?" She rubbed her sleepy eyes. "Just wake up...you left me here, remember?...She looks for me? Okay, going now...bye." She cut the line off, sighing. "Here goes my complicated life."
...Momo pulled zipper of her running jacket up. Done with warm up, she started to run. After dinner she decided to have jogging at ground. The air turned chilly at night but she liked to run. She breathed in autumn evening air while running round ground. After non-stop six rounds she slowed down. She wiped sweats off face, stretching legs.
"Never thought you as a sporty person."
"Jimin " she greeted. She didn't notice his presence.
"I see you have new girl lately."
Momo ran tongue over teeth but said nothing. The stood beside her, his eyes were unreadable.
"Lucky you to have girls around."
"What do you want?" Momo looked up at the tall boy, preparing herself had he came for a fight. As she had expected Jimin grabbed her running jacket.
"You stay, away, from Mina," Jimin said between his teeth. "You caused many trouble here, to her."
Momo clenched her jaw, pushing the hands off. "I have no idea what you're talking about," she said. The boy suddenly laughed, confused her.
"I know your secret, new boy, or is it girl?" Jimin said. When Haru's eyes widened a little, he added. "You shouldn't reveal your secret in public."
Flashback
Jimin took doorknob to open the door. He wondered why Mina went to rooftop. He thought to look for his partner but when he caught the other boy's presence he stood close to wall. Luckily the wall kept him hidden from them but he could still hear their voice. He saw Mina standing in front of Haru . 'What are they doing here?' He tilted his head, listening to their conversation.
"I am a girl."
His eyes bulged out in astonishment when Haru took his blonde hair off, and the next moment long brown hair fell down. His jaw dropped down. He pulled it up but once again dropped it down. 'He...she...oh my...' He quickly lifted a hand to cover his mouth. The new boy being a girl surprised him, however, the next second he was shocked. Mina kissed the girl.
After calming himself, he decided to leave the place. It hurt him to see his partner with the boy, or girl. He grabbed doorknob but then stopped. He left door, approaching wall, pulling phone out. It was just a reminder that his partner had already belonged to somebody else, he thought. He swallowed back a heavy sigh, leaving rooftop. He gripped his phone, trying not to cry. He didn't see his way that he bumped into someone. "Sorry,"
"Your phone,"
He didn't even realize he had dropped his phone. He knitted his brows as the girl stared down at his phone screen. "My phone please," he said. The girl confused him by giving smile, still holding his phone.
"I need your help."
He frowned. "My help?"
"You help me with this, and I will help you to get Mina-ssi, what do you say? Oh, by the way, my name is Kei."
Autumn breeze felt cold on Momo's skin. She tried to let the cold air go down through her tightened throat. "Y-you...know?"
"But don't worry, I have no interest to reveal your identity. I just want to protect Mina from people like you. You may have her heart, but I won't let you hurt her."
Momo wanted to say back for the offense but oddly her tongue stuck tightly against ceiling of her mouth. She was relieved when someone stepped in.
"Hyung, are you alright?"
Jimim turned around as School of Theatre student approached them. "Don't forget it, newboy," he said to Haru.
Momo clenched her jaw and fists, watching as the president boy walked down toward dorm. At moment there were many feelings inside her. There was anger, jealousy, offended, also guilty. After sharp intake of breath she turned to Tatsuya. "Thanks."
"There's something you keep from me, hyung?"
"Not again," Momo groaned. "I'm not dating Kei-ssi, well dating, but not real, it's complicated." She sighed in frustration and added. "You know I like Mina, and I didn't lie."
"And?" Tatsuya folded arms, waiting.
"And what?" Momo asked, confused. The boy raised an eyebrow and her eyes widened. "Damn, you heard it."
"Clearly."
"Look, I can explain about it, we..." Momo started but Tatsuya startled her by screaming out.
"THAT'S FREAKING AWESOME!"
"Huh?" Momo's jaw dropped down. The boy suddenly grabbed her shoulders.
"You're really...?" Tatsuya asked.
Momo nodded head.
"And she knows it?"
Momo once again nodded.
"That's awesome!"
"Wait, wait, your unstable emotion mixed me up here. Can you calm down a little?" Momo said to the still freaking out boy.
"That's really shock, still awesome. Oh my goodness, that's really hot, better than my..." Tatsuya stopped when a hard slap landed on his head. "Ouch!"
"Do you fantasize about us?" Momo lifted her clenched fist.
Tatsuya quickly put hands up. "No, hyung, I swear." He shook head swiftly. When Haru narrowed eyes, he nodded meekly. "But not porn, really, I swear to god or whatever." He made a V-sign with fingers. "You know that I'm your biggest fan. But I promise will stop."
"No," Momo said and started to run after him. "Come back here, Tachin!"
"I promise hyung! Please forgive me!"
Later, Momo pulled zipper of her jacket down as her body was heated up from her running. She let Tatsuya ran off toward dorm for she was too tired. She was glad that it didn't matter to him if she was a girl, although she made mental note to kick his buttocks for fantasizing her and Mina. She chuckled, walking out from ground. She spotted Tzuyu and Jungyeon sitting on bench near boy's dorm.
"Here he is," Jungyeon said as Momo approached them. "Done with your healthy life program?"
Momo wriggled her brows, sitting down over grass. "Yeah, tired. What are you guys doing here?"
"There's more important thing than that. Did you meet Jimin-ssi? He looked upset or something I don't know, when he passed us," Tzuyu said to Momo .
"And what happened with Tachin?" Jungyeon added another question.
Momo sighed. "They knew." She didn't need to say out the rest for the girls' face suddenly turned serious.
"They did?" Tzuyu asked.
Momo drew knees up, nodding head. "Jimin-ssi came to me, and he told me he knows." She decided to keep the detail. "Tachin happened to be there. I'm sorry."
"It's not your fault," Tzuyu said. "But we're in big trouble. Now two presidents know our secret. I don't know but I feel it will soon come out, our secret."
Jungyeon put an elbow on knee, tapping finger against chin. "I doubt Jimin-ssi will expose it, also Krystal-ssi. As long as we keep it secret, it won't."
Momo fiddled with her shoelace. "I don't know if I can." She felt confused gaze and continued. "It's just...it's getting hard to lie." Jimin's word kept replaying in her head. Honestly she knew that one day her secret would cause trouble to Mina. And now they were being separate because of her secret. She couldn't lie anymore.
"You mean we're coming out?" Tzuyu questioned and turned to Jungyeon.
"I don't think it's a good idea," Jungyeon said. "You know what it means."
Momo pushed body off. "I know, but look at us. We get famous, yes, but it wasn't us, the real us. We can keep it secret from students here, but can we deceive millions of people in Korea?"
Jungyeon rose to feet, facing Momo . "So, you want to give up? We've come to this point, it's just some steps to our dream, and you're giving up?"
"I'm not giving up," Momo said, tone increased a little. "But look at reality, we can't do this."
"Okay you two calm down please," Tzuyu said, standing between the two. She then turned to Momo . "I know what concerns you, you worried about Mina."
Momo gave small nod.
"C'mon, really? You can't mix your privacy into this," Jungyeon argued.
The words raised anger inside Momo . "You can say that because you're not the one who's being separate from someone you love! You're not the one who's seeing the person you like sacrificing her love, her pride for protecting you!"
"Haru," Tzuyu took Momo's shoulder to calm the girl down.
"That's romantic, seriously, but if you reveal yourself won't it worsen everything?" Jungyeon said pointedly. "You won't help her at all. You'll make her and everyone here lose this Academy." As soon as the word slipped out from her mouth, she regretted it immediately.
Momo knitted her brows, confused. "What do you mean?"
"Uh, nothing, it's just..."
"Kwangyun, what does that mean?" Tzuyu asked, confused as well.
"Just..." Jungyeon tried to make an excuse but Momo grabbed her jacket collar.
"You keep something from us, what is it?" Momo demanded. Her guess was confirmed when the girl avoided her eyes. "You know some..." She stopped abruptly as a thought crossed her head.
"Jinyoung is your friend, who happened to be one of the juries in audition, and show up at street dance, which we go by your invitation. It's not a coincidence," Momo said.
Jungyeon bit her lips, nodding weakly. "No."
"Oh my god," was what Tzuyu could say.
Momo tightened her grip. "Is it him? Or is it Principal?" she asked, exasperated.
"Did Mina know about this?" When Jungyeon remained silent, she pulled the girl closer.
"Answer me, damn it!"
"They asked me!" Jungyeon answered but the next moment something hard hit her jaw and she stumbled back.
"What the hell..." She pushed body up and hit Momo's jaw with a fist. "I have no other choice! I just wanted to help them, and you!"
"Stop it, don't fight," Tzuyu said, trying to stop them. She took Momo's shoulders but the girl pushed her aside that she fell onto ground.
"With deceiving us!? I don't need your help!" Momo growled, sending another punch.
Jungyeon clenched her fist, tasting blood in her mouth. "Oh yeah? You should thank me!" She stretched an arm out to punch Momo but it hit Tzuyu instead.
"Damnit," Tzuyu cursed. She rose to feet, getting angry. "I said stop it! Why did you keep it from us? I thought you're friend?" she said to Jungyeon.
"You blame me too?" Jungyeon huffed. "You should thank me for helping you! You got a chance, and someone you like, though you're too scared to admit it."
The statement finally pushed Tzuyu's button. "I'm not hearing that from you," she hissed and hit Jungyeon's jaw. "What do you know about loving someone!?" She clenched her trembled fists in anger.
Jungyeon pushed body up, glaring back. "Isn't it true? You're afraid she will reject you if she knows you are girl," she said to Tzuyu then turned to Momo. "I just want to be your friend."
"You are girl? All of you?"
They froze on spot and slowly turned around. "Mark,"
"You said," Mark said, looking at Kwangyun and then at the other boys. "...you're girl...how?"
Jinyoung ran a hand through hair before patting the shocked vice president boy. "Let's have talk," he said but Momo left the place and soon Tzuyu followed.
"Xiumin, wait!" Mark ran after his roommate.
Jinyoung turned to the left boy. "They find out," he said. He sat down on bench beside Jungyeon. "I'm sorry, it's my fault."
"They will know it eventually."
Jinyoung let out small chuckle. "That looks bad, by the way," he said and laughed lightly when Jungyeon punched his arm. "The little girl has grown up, she can fight now."
"Stop it," Jungyeon said, pushing his hand off her head. She smiled a little but then winced.
"You've changed a lot," Jinyoug said to his niece.
Jungyeon was his brother's only daughter. She lost her mother whom whenever's she was a child, and had been grown only by a father. But his brother was a business man, not a father. That was why Jungyeon was close to him instead of her father.
"You know why your father never allows you to enter this Academy?" When Jungyeon turned to him, he continued. "You've never been serious on anything, let alone study. You never have interest in anything, or anyone. But now look at you, you have friends, and importantly you've learned to share, and fight for your friends. I'm very proud of you."
"Thanks." Jungyeon smiled a little. "But now they hate me."
Jinyoung put an arm around his niece's shoulders. "Nah, every teenager fights with their friends, but they will always make up, don't worry," he said, giving light pat. "But I owe you big favor."
"Tell Principal kahi to give me off."
"Don't push your luck." Jinyoung patted Jungyeon's head. "Looks like I got to go." He stood up and leaned down to whisper. "Xiumkn is right, you're soooo dense."
"Aww!" Jungyeon cried in pain as he pinched her cheek. "That hurts, you know."
Jinyoung just winked, leaving.
Jungyeon then noticed another person approaching. "Nayeon-ssi,"
"Hi, I saw you here," Nayeon said. She had seen Kwangyun with Jinyoung and it made her realize why he never looked at her. Although it also made her sad but if Kwangyun was happy then she would too. "What happened to you?" She finally noticed his wounded lips and red cheekbone.
"It's alright, just a fight," Jungyeon said but then let out a hiss when Nayeon took her jaw.
"Sorry, it hurts?" Nayeon asked.
Jungyeon nodded head.
She pinched Kwangyun's arm. "What the hell are you doing, fighting? Who's the guy? I'll tell Mrs.Bae."
"Firstly you're just adding another pain," Jungyeon said while rubbing her arm. "Secondly, it's Xiumin and Haru."
"You fight with Xiumim and Haru? Why?" Nayeon asked, confused. Kwangyun lowered his gaze and she took the hint. "Let me see it." She carefully took his cheek.
Jungyeon watched as Nayeon took first-aid kit out from bag. "Do you always bring that?"
"Better have it, right?"
Jungyeon chuckled, but only to increase the pain. "Thanks." She smiled sheepishly as Nayeon treated her wound.
"There you go," Nayeon said, putting the kit back into her bag. "It must be something important that you fight with them. But tomorrow you have to make up, okay?" She was about to zip her bag close when Kwangyun leaned head on her shoulder.
"I will try, promise."
