With Him || Heehoon

CHAP 9

Sunghoon's POV

This morning is different. I mean yes, I still work up to the whistling of kettle and my reflection still look pale and dean. The difference is my eye bruise is completely gone and I looked....... Lively.

I can't say the emotion is happy 'coz I don't have a smile on my face and I don't feel like dancing my long forgotten Michael Jackson moves. ( hehe niki 🕺) but my eyes had a spark in them that wasn't their the last two mornings or even a month or week.

I smirked at my reflection before going to do my  bathroom business. Coming out I settled on a dark slightly skinny jean, a black tee and a black hoodie zip up jacket. The fur around the hood was white though, matching perfectly with my black and white niki shoes. ( I don't really know how to describe the outfits... Sorry 😔)

There was no saving my hair, even if I bothered to tame it the little wind outside would mess it up in seconds.

"Good morning mom" I greeted collecting my mug of coffee from her.

She kissed my cheek before going around to kitchen table. "I packed some leftovers for your lunch make sure to eat it."

"Sure mom, how can I resist such a magical meal?"

She giggled. "Yesterday was great wasn't it."

I nodded gulping down hot coffee. "You slay mom. I was so proud."

She smiled."You also seems to get along heeseung. You guys still friends?"

"Mmm" I said plucking my lips as I pretend to think about it. "I think so. He's good."

"You're in a good mood Hoon. I like."

I chuckled. "Am I not always in a good mood?" She gave me the you really asked me that eye and I sighed, "I slept good"

"Me too."

I frowned at that. That's probably because ji-ho didn't come back all night long. I waited for him till one am but he didn't show. I just wish he'd stay out forever.

My mom and I turned around when we heard the front door open....

Speaking of the devil. Why can't wishes or my wishes come through for once? It's like universe is laughing at my face for even wishing such thing. They could be saying that we'll never get rid of him. He's a Thorn that has come to stay. If that's what they are saying, then they are wrong, very wrong.

I'll get rid of ji-ho. Somehow! Anyhow! I'll rid my mom and me off this beast. It's going to happen.

"I'm home." He shouted stumbling in and almost falling face flat.

I heard my mom sigh and my hand automatically clenched.

"Yejun! yejun come, help me up to my room!" He shouted like a crazy man." I'm so drunk the earth is spinning. Ye-jun!"

"You should go to school." Mom tells me reaching to remove her apron.

"Stay, I've got this." I tell mom without looking at her. I got up from the stool and walked to him.

"What took you so long women." Ji-ho said shoving me backwards. "You're so slow and stupid."

Is this how he would've shoved my mom? My mom slow and stupid? I glared and was seriously tempted and to raise my fist and knock his two front teeth out. But I stopped myself knowing full well it's not time yet. Doing anything rash would just be digging our graves.

Soon. Very soon, I reached out for him swinging his arm around my shoulder to support him as I lead us both upstairs. He accidentally hit his foot against a stair and he hit me, calling me foolish and useless, all the while mistaking me for my mom.

Walking towards the room, my shoulder started aching, he was really heavier than me. I tried to adjust so he won't be so heavy and he stumbled forward. I was slapped and shoved for that.

In the room, I purposefully let him go and he hit his head on a drawer. That drew a satisfied smile out of me. While coming downstairs, I tasted blood. Reaching up with my fingers I touched fresh blood on my bottom lip, great! Another injury!

Needless to say, my day has just gone from bright to Stormy.

"Sunghoon" my mom called in an effort to pacify me. Won't work, I'm bloody mad.

"It's fine." I sharply cut her off, taking my packed lunch and backpack before storming out.

I'm not one to put blame on people and I try not to. It doesn't pay. Just focus on eliminating the problem. I sighed running a hand through my hair. One day. one day I will leave this house without a bruise.

The sky was a little bright but the wind was still present. Not much but enough to take a kite across the Pacific. I'm already late for school. There's no way I'll make it before the first period, especially if I keep standing here.

"Never thought you'd come out."

I looked from my hood to see heeseung relaxing on his black Ferrari, leg's stretched out, arms folded. He effortlessly looked good unlike me, seemed to have the perfect hair that fell around his eyes. He looked up with a smile.

Who would've guessed park sunghoon was a tardy student? Tsk tsk, I thought I taught you better." He said with a shake of head and  then widened his eyes a bit, The amusing glint in his eyes gone.

"What happened to your lip?"

"What are you doing here heeseung?" I asked. I would have been amused by the whole thing or make an old joke out of it. But there's nothing remotely funny or amusing to me right now. Plus I'm avoiding my lip question .

He sighed. "It's Ethan, and what else? I'm waiting to give you a ride my tardy neighbor. Now what happened to your lip?"

"Hit my face on a door." I rushed out, seeing as he won't leave it. "Go to school, heeseung." I told him, taking a step to walk away.

"Oh come on." Heeseung said reaching for my hand. "I've been waiting for an hour now. You don't expect to just go now right?"

I wrung my hand out of his. "One hour? You're pretty jobless aren't you?"

"Yea, I was going to look for a job when we were fully settled but dad said not to do it and just concentrate on getting A's so I'm gonna be jobless for a while." He tells me gesturing with his hands.

I glared. Giving my 'do not mess with me look'. And he sighed again. "Look you're angry but I'm not the cause of whatever happened. I've waited already and the least you can do right now is not my waiting go in vain. And you're already late, me giving you a ride might get us both to first period. It's a win win."

I looked at him Wondering what his aiming at. Waiting for me one hour, pure stupidity. Now we both would be tardy. Well I guess this is what he meant by 'making it up to me'. And I could really use the ride.

Without another word, I round up the car opening up the door and getting into the car. It smelled like leather and his cologne. Heeseung entered the car grinning. "See? How hard was that?"

"Really hard. Who knew you'll be stupid. Waiting for one hour? Biggest dummy ever, now you'll be tardy."

"Something's never change hoon." He says driving off. And I relaxed into the chair, the headache from ji-ho slap was finally making itself known.

Yea, but somethings do. many things do.
