Chapter 32

Bona POV

Stuck.

That's what I am right now.

Stuck.

Stuck standing by my cheer friends beside my locker while staring at this girl down the hallway talking to her own set of friends but with a dull look in her eyes. Not being able to be with her makes me see things more clearly now and it's not because I like her or anything.

God, it's so irritating to have that feeling of guilt and depression. I've worked myself years since I was left behind by my parents to go past that, to control those feelings so that it wouldn't affect me in this big world, but I guess there are other things even I can't control.

Exhibit A, Son Eunseo. Hot nerd of this school and the girl that's been playing games inside my head since I've been hyperventilating in my sister's room after that fateful Saturday evening. I wanted to text her, call her, maybe even freaking visit her but it's not easy anymore. Not since that idiot Luda came into the picture and opened her mouth, couldn't she wait until I told Eunseo myself?

Which, fine, I wasn't planning to tell her until things got too heavy between the both of us but now I don't have a chance and it's unfair.

Exhibit B, Lee Luda stupid bitch. Somebody better put a leash on my neck because I'm about to knuckle-crunch this bitch face all the way to Antarctica where she can freeze to death and stay frozen forever. That's what she deserves.

Sighing, I roll my eyes at my fellow cheerleaders for talking well more like gossiping about the 'latest' hook-up news in the team. Which is honestly starting to get frustrating with hearing the same names over and over again like we don't already know they've been humping in the back seat.

"How about you Captain?"

I snap my eyes to Yeoreum who's watching me intently, making the others look at me as well. I nearly cringe at how disgusting I feel under their piercing, judgemental gazes. Shrugging my shoulders, I tilt my head back. "I just broke up with Jiwoong, give me some time to myself, lizard." I hiss, ignoring how Luda narrows her eyes at me.

Yeoreum huffs before looking me up down, "You've been more bitchy than usual you know and that's saying something." She said while earning a few hesitant nods from the other girls. Seriously I'm not surprised she'd talk to me this way cause rumor has it she's the next head cheerio when I leave this awful, forsaken school. Guess you could say Yeoreum and I talk as if we're each other's copies.

"I got my period, go sue me." I taunt back, gritting my teeth together as I side-eye Eunseo down the hall again. This time she's zipping her bag close and walking to our direction with downcast eyes. I know her next class, it's two doors down from where we're standing. I feel all the breath being sucked out of my lungs when she passes by us with Lucas on her side, I smell her vanilla waft perfume.

She's so intoxicating, it's annoying.

Pushing myself off the wall, I ignore the cheerleader's suspicious looks and walk fast grabbing Eunseo's arm. I drag her to a corner where it's kind of secluded then peek around to see if anyone would see us. Keeping a secured hold of her arm, I feel her not squirming against my touch which was weird because I'd think she'd slap me by now.

Exhaling, I turn to her but she avoids my eyes by looking at the water fountain behind us. I bite my lip and curse at myself to say something.

"Hi" I breathe out, caressing her soft skin with my left hand around her arm.

She doesn't reply, her eyes aren't as brown as I admired them to be and her face is blank almost like the soul has been ripped out of her body.

My lip quivers, I fake a laugh nodding my head. "Would you-"
