❀ 17- Drifting Wind

 It has been a week worth of trying to get him to talk to me, but no matter what, it was useless. He never locked eye contact with me, and even sitting next to me, he never spoke to me or even looked.

Even though I get no response, I just keep trying because I was willing to know what's wrong.

In thought, I flipped the page in my notebook, and accidentally bumped my elbow into his side.

"Mianhae! Mianhae..." I say to him, startling myself, as well as the other students around us. He didn't even respond, and was still writing in his notebook like nothing had happened. 

I sighed, and sat back properly in my chair as whispers were made in my way. 

"What's up with Hyeri saying sorry these days?" 

"That's so rare for her to say sorry."  

"You know what's even strange? He's not even responding to her anymore."

"I wonder what happened to them..."

"Yah! Can you guys be quiet?! I'm trying to write important notes here!" Yura exploded at the other girl students, and they immediately hushed at her frighting explosion. 

I looked over to Yura, and nodded a thanks towards her. 

"What is going on here? Is someone making a disruption while I'm in the middle of teaching?" Our teacher say as he turned around from the board, looking at us. 

"Aniyo, there's nothing going on, seonsaeng-nim." Jungkook said, and the girls swooned.

I rolled my eyes, and sat forward in my seat. 

As class went back to normal again, I couldn't help but eye at V in the corner of my eyes while I was writing in my notebook. His eyes were only looking at the notebook, and somehow I started to wish I was that notebook, and started to get jealous. 

I snapped out of it, and sat back up.

Omo... what is wrong with me? All of a sudden I'm jealous of a notebook?

I found it rather funny, and started to giggle. I dropped my pencil, and pressed both my hands on my cheeks, and pressed on them together and made a fish face as I giggled. 

There was a movement beside me, and I turned to see him moving comfortably in his chair. 

He's not even looking at my aegyo anymore...

My hands fell on my lap, and I felt all sad again as I slouched in my chair. 

"You're never going to notice me anymore..." I say in almost a whisper. 

I didn't realize I even said it out loud, and I looked up at him. I saw how his adam apple on his neck was moving and he gulped, taking his lips in as his eyes blinked rapidly as if he heard what I said.

I turned back to my notebook, and picked up my pencil to write again, and regretted it.I soon noticed how he wasn't writing anymore, but playing with his pencil in his hand. 

Even if I noticed it, it was nothing anyways. 

With a sigh, I turned back to my work, and continued on. 

The bell finally rang for lunch, and everyone stood up and went towards the door to the cafeteria. 

"Are you coming, Hyeri?" Minah asked as I turned to see Yura and Sojin waiting for me. 

"Yeah, I'm coming." I say, getting out of my seat and walked with them out of the hallway. While walking with them, I remembered I didn't bring my lunch money. 

"Guys, wait a minute. I think I left my wallet back at the classroom. You guys can go, I can get it by myself." I say, and they nodded. 

"Arasso. We'll save you a seat at our main table!" Yura said as they waved back, and I smiled and turned around to get back to the classroom. 

Once I reached the classroom, I stepped inside to see V standing in front of our classroom teacher, his back facing me. 

I immediately stepped out, and hid behind the wall next to the door. 

I didn't want to eavesdrop, but I needed to get my money in the classroom. 

"Seonsaeng-nim... I need to talk to you about something." He said, his voice hollow and coarse. How I missed his voice, and wished it was directly at me.

"Yes, what is that do you need?" 

"... I want to switch desks." He said, and I held my mouth. 

"Waeyo? Isn't your seating spot good enough?" 

"Aniyo. My seatmate, Hyeri... she's a distraction to me, so I want to move away from her to properly focus my work more." He said in that mono tuned voice again.

"If that's the case... why don't I switch your seats with Jungkook then?" 

"That would be great." He said, and I couldn't help but turn away, and run away from the classroom.

I didn't know where I was going, but I just knew I needed to get away from there.

I ran out of the school building, and stright towards the benches in the corner of the garden, and took a deep breath as I breathed the fresh air as I walked towards the bench, and sat down in it.

He really didn't want my presence to be near him anymore? I really think when said, that everything was a mistake... it was starting to reveal that it was the truth, and not a joke.

The tears escaped from my eyes, and I started to cry again. 

Why was this happening to us? 

Why was he trying to stay away from me?

 What is going on... with us?

"Ah geez... more sweat?" 

I stopped, and turned around. At first, I didn't see anyone, but when I turned the other way, I saw a figure of a person laying on the other bench, a jacket on his face.

"Who... who are you?" I asked him, wiping my tears. 

"You really don't remember when we met last night? Do you want more change?" 

He said as he sat up, taking off his jacket, revealing his face.

My eyes widened, as I recognized him.

"Y-Yook Sungjae?" I say, remembering his name tag. 

He gave me a sarcastic smile. 

"That's impressive that you know my name, but not my face," He said, and looked away from me. "Is my face not handsome enough? I checked last time..." He trailed off, forgetting I was there.

He suddenly pointed at me. "Yah, due to your sweating, I couldn't rest properly." 

"Mianhae-yo. I'll go away," I say as I stood up. 

He quickly stood up, and walked up to me as he held onto his jacket. His distance from me was too close, and he awkwardly stepped back. "Y-yah! You can't just go when you just woke me up like this."

When I didn't answer him, he sighed, and threw his jacket behind his back as he held onto it in the front, maintaining a cool posture. He looked back at me, and leaned forward. 

"Yah... you're still sweating? Are you trying to make yourself pitiful for me to let you go?"

 He said, and I sniffed.

"A-aniyo..." 

"Then why? Are you crying because I'm too handsome for you to handle?" He asked, and I sniffed. 

He frowned. "Then what are you crying for? Last time, you were crying. Now you're still crying. You failed a test? Your friend not buying the right clothes for you? A break up with your boyfriend?"   

I started to break out in a loud sob once I heard he say 'break up' in the same line as ' boyfriend.'

Realizing what he did, he started to panic as other students were turning their heads in our direction.

"Did I say something wrong? Aish..." 

He said as he scratched the back of his neck as he watched me cry, not knowing what to do or say to me. 

"Do... do you want me to get you something? I can if that can cheer you up," He offered, but I just shook my head and cried even harder, knowing nothing can help except for V.

"Heol... look at that Sungjae kid making Hyeri cry like that..." 

People began to say as they passed by us. 

"Aish, is it that crazy kid again? What is he doing now?" 



"Yah! It isn't like that!" He yelled at them, and turned back to me, hesitating before he spoke. 

"Come with me." 

Without letting me reply, he grabbed my wrist and pulled me along with him.

TAEHYUNG'S P.O.V

"What's happening down there?" 

"It's that Yook Sungjae kid."

"What's he doing dragging her with him?"

I turned when I heard that from Jimin, slightly curious now.

 We were currently on top of the school roof, looking down at the campus since this was where we always hang at after lunch.

I walked towards the other 6 boys who were looking down at something, and looked down. 

At first, I thought it was another ordinary couple when I realized the girl was Hyeri. 

My eyes widen in surprise as I watched the Sungjae kid drag her away as she was crying. 

"Yah... what are you going to do?" Jin asked me. 

I blinked... and started to get confused again.

"Yah, V!" 

Suddenly, my instincts came and told me to go no matter what.

Not before long, I turned around on my heel, and darted towards the exit, and ran downstairs, on my way to get to him before he does anything to her.

As I finally arrived at the scene, I saw his hand placed on her cheek, as she was leaning on the back wall. She was calm now, and her tears were stopped.

The feeling of raging jealousy was running through my veins as I watched what was going on. 

I had enough of the view and stepped into the scene, and they both looked up at me. 

 He placed his hand away from her cheek as he turned to look at me, as I looked back at him. Her eyes widened when she saw me, and it was almost like it was filled with guilt from what it looks like. 

"What's going on?" I asked first, my eyes at the guy called Sungjae.

Surprisingly, he looked back at me with a look of disgust. 

"What are you, here?" He asked me back, and I scoffed.

 I placed my hands in my pocket. "I don't like wasting my time asking questions back and forth. Let me get this done with," I say, and stepped forward as I looked at Hyeri now as I raised my hand at her.

"Hyeri, come with me."

She has stopped crying, but her eyes were starting to water again. I didn't know what she was thinking, but she never took a step forward towards me. 

"Hyeri... I said come with me now." I say again, a little more commanding.

"She doesn't want to go with you." He intervened, blocking my view to her by stepping in front of her, placing an arm behind in protectiveness. 

"Boah?" I say, surprised. 

"She doesn't want to go with you. The reason why she is crying, is because of you. A person like you, you don't deserve her at all!" He said, and I started to get angry. 

"Yah, you don't even know half of the story to begin with. Who are you to say these things about me?" I directed my eyes towards her. "Is this true? Are you crying because of me?" 

She had lowered her head, and I could see tear drops falling from her eyes to the ground. 

She didn't answer me.

"I told you she doesn't want you here-" 

"Shut up!" I yelled, getting angry by the second. 

I started to walk towards her, but he pushed me back. 

"What do you think you are doing? Do you want to get beaten? I'm her boyfriend! Her boyfriend!" I yelled, pointing at myself as I yelled at him. I turned to Hyeri. "Hyeri-ah! Come with me now!"

"Don't yell at her like that! You aren't privileged to be called her boyfriend!" He yelled back at me. 

In rage, I darted forth and punched him on his face, throwing him to the side as he fell on the ground.

"Ha ji ma!" She yelled, and we both turned to look at her. She was breathing hard, her eyes only at the ground before she raised them and looked at me. 

I offered my hand towards her.

"Come with me." 

She looked at my hand and back at me.

"Why do you want me back so suddenly? I thought you were suppose to ignore me like you were for the last week and a half." She said, and I only looked back at her, my mind suddenly blank.

"Aniyo... Hyeri you don't understand," 

"You don't understand... you don't understand what?! What is it that I don't understand V?! You keep on telling me the same thing over and over!" She yelled, and I was at fault for it all.

I was silenced.

"Exactly! Nothing! There's nothing I don't understand! Why are you being like this to me V? What is your problem? You don't even want me near you anymore!" She said, and I looked at her.

"Aniyo-"

"Aniyo? Then why were you in the classroom talking to seonsaeng-nim about switching tables?" She started to laugh with no humor. "Because I was a distraction... huh?" 

She knows.

I gulped, not knowing what  to say now.

"I guess what you said... that everything was a mistake... I think it makes more sense now." She said, looking at the ground as she spoke. 

"Everything... was a mistake after all." She said, earning a last blow to me.

"Come on Sungjae, let's just go." 

She said as she turned to Sungjae, and helped him up and off the floor.

When they both passed me, I couldn't even turn around to look at her. I stood there, facing the other way as they went. The drifting wind passed me, and I couldn't take it anymore.

I slumped onto my knees, and knelled on the ground. My hands that were resting on my knees began to clench into hard fists, as I began to feel the pain again. 

Suddenly, there were wet tear drops on my hand, and I surprised myself for crying again.

This was all happening... how it was suppose to be.

I realized. 

I looked up at the sky, and saw the cloudy sky and looked down again, 

the cool wind drying my tears as they stayed on my face.
