~• Part 4 •~

*•*•*•

A few minutes after, we both arrived to the party. As expected, there's a pool of students here and there. Jeonghan suddenly went out of the car and immediately opened the door for me that made some of them gasped.

I can feel most people eyes are all on me and it makes me uncomfortable. Jeonghan did noticed it, he's tugging my hand to grab my attention. I looked at him and he send signal for us to go inside. I just smile a little and walked inside with him.

As I walking with him, I heard some whispered "who is she?" "isn't she's Eunjin?" "the pathetic girl?" "Areum's right! she's just pretending and a gold digger" "even with full make up she's still ugly". Those words does affected me. I hold my tears and keep walking with Jeonghan but then I can feel his hand soothing me by caressing the top of my hand. I know he heard it. I feel so embarrass. I looked at him a little and smile.

"You can go first, enjoy yourself. I'll be back later, okay? Jeonghan asked and I nodded slowly. Deep inside me, I'm afraid someone would do something bad at me..."I know what you're thinking Eunjin. Just don't worry, okay? no ones gonna hurt you, just stay seat at your place and ignore everyone, alright?" I'm a bit shooked with what Jeonghan said. He can read my mind?? Brushing that off, I looked at him and nodded. "Good and take care okay" He said while patting my head slowly that ease me down.

I sat on one of the empty table with all the foods that I've pick. All of the foods looks so appetizing! I munch the food happily and slowly when suddenly I heard voice next to me. "Having fun, Park Eunjin?" My hands automatically tremble hearing that voice. "ah no no. Poor girl like you, can't even eat this kind of food as they are not in your level" Rina, one of Areum's friend said and snatch the plate from me. She gave it too Areum's and they eat the food right away. "ugh eww....the food taste so awful! must because it have been touched by a poor ugly girl like you" Areum said with disgust in her tone and straightly spit her food on the table. Okay, enough !That hurt me very much that made me suddenly stand up. It shocked everyone else who saw it too including Jeonghan.

I was trying to speak and standing up for myself. The whole hall turn into eerie silent. Jeonghan just hug his own body watching me with anticipation. I walked towards her slowly, very slowly and when I'm almost there, bad memories suddenly flashback in my head that made run out of the hall straight away.

Jeonghan saw all of it and rush out to go chase me.

I was trembling and teared down a little. Seeing her a bit shocked made me shocked too. I was now at the lobby stairs, panting from the nervousness and fear. "Eunjin!"I heard someone calling me but I didn't look at the direction of the voice. "Park Eunjin! where are you??"
The closer the voice get, I can finally hear it clearly and noticed its Jeonghan's. I just sit there not doing anything when I heard "Found you!" thag shooked me a little. He's kind of panting, I bet he ran his way out till here. He came closer. "What are you doing?" he asked. "w-what d-did I do? I asked back. "No, I mean what are YOU trying to do back there?" he asked emphasized the YOU. "I-I did-didn't know, it-its just s-so sudden" I answer while meddling with my fingers. He sighed, looking down again "I asked you to stand up for yourself but not right now, you do know she's powerful, right?" I nodded. "plus this is not the right time and you do know what she can do, do you?" I silently nodded again. "Good, let's forget about it and come with me" he said grabbing my hand and bring me back to the party hall.

As soon as we got there, he pulled me to the dance floor and dance with me. I felt chills running down my spine as he slowly put his hand on my waist.

We both swayed to the music silently followed the rythmm. It's a slow song that sound so peaceful and calm.

Sometimes I took a peek at Jeonghan's face. This is the closest that I've ever been with him. I traced his beautiful delicate face with my eyes. Looking at every details and inch on his face. He is indeed a very handsome man. It make me think how could a man like him who have good personalities (well of course the new him), caring, gentleman, rich and also have a perfect face exist in this world? No wonder that all the girls are all head over heels toward him. As I was in a deep tough I didn't notice that he standing a little more closer and already looking down at me. "Don't look at me like that" huh? did he say something? what? I was confused when he suddenly leaned more closer to my ears and huskily whispered "don't. look. at. me. like...that." He then stand back straight afterward. I looked back at him, not know what his means. He just laughed a little "I mean I know I'm handsome but you don't need to do that" he said that effortless while sending smirk to me. I can feel my face blushed a little. He just smile and continues the dance.

it's already 1 hour since the party starts and he brought me to the rooftop. We both looking at the night beautiful sky together. There's not only the two of us there but there's other people from our classes and whole school.

I was so focused at sky that I didn't noticed that his eyes were already on me. I look at my side and saw Jeonghan's already look at me. He noticed that I noticed him, thus he send a very genuine smile at me that made every girls melt just like me...

Most of us are on rooftop is because the teacher said that they will release fireworks here as the rain has stops to lighten up the mood.

Few minutes after, fireworks have been released. It's beautiful! I'm so happy that I get to see it. I looked beside me and saw Jeonghan enjoying it too. He looks so adorable. tsk what am I thinking..wake up eunjin!

But then suddenly when the fireworks almost end, I saw he picked up his phone and his expression changed abruptly that make he looks so different. It's like he's stress and tense(?). Few seconds after, he hanged up, taking his coat and dashed out from the rooftop without looking at anyone or even speaking.

Including me....

I also ran out of there to chase and find him everywhere. I called his name many times but still no answers. I took courage and even asked peoples there if they see Jeonghan anywhere and all of them answered no.

I still searched him everywhere nonstop and no, I've never found him not even his shadow. I think he already went home but usually he will tell me but whh not this time....

It's already the end of the party and he is still nowhere to be seen. I went home by bus feeling a bit worried about him as his face changed after the phone call. But its okay, I'll see him tomorrow at school and gain the courage to ask to him.
