Never Me | j.j.k

Chapter 11

It's 5 days later. Hyunmi and Jungkook have not made contact with each other. Hyunmi has barely been speaking lately, sometimes answering yes or no questions. Jungkook has not been in school for the past few days.

It's lunch time. Hyesu is not in school today and Hyunmi doesn't know where Jongyul is so she could walk him to his class. As the hallways become empty, Hyunmi is left alone and sighs as she shuts her locker. Just as she is about to turn around but freezes.

Hanyong: Hey dollface~

She slowly turns around and looks at him. He pouts.

Hanyong: You haven't been speaking these past few days. Jungkook hasn't been here so there's nothing bothering you so wae aren't you speaking?

Hyunmi: ...

Hanyong: At least say something other than ne or anya.

Hyunmi: You must be joking if you're saying there's nothing bothering me. If nothing was bothering me, I wouldn't be the way that I am right now.

Hanyong: I'm here if you want to talk about it

Hyunmi: It's fine..don't worry about it.

Just as she's about to walk away she stops in place.

Hanyong: Awow..you actually didn't say anything mean to me..or tell me to go away..are you sure you don't want to talk about it? Clearly something is really up and don't you realize that I care about you?

She turns around and faces him.

Hyunmi: I know..but Hanyong, this is something that no one can help me with.

Hanyong: ...Does it have anything to do with Jungkook?

Hyunmi: ..Anya

Hanyong: Don't lie

Hyunmi: ...Partially

Hanyong: Do you want me to piece him up for you? Because I will gladly do so.

Hyunmi: Aniyo, nothing of that sort, Hanyong. Really, just don't worry about it. It's okay.

Hanyong: Clearly it's not okay. I really don't like seeing you like this, although you're being nice to me, it's not for the right reason. I don't know why you keep yourself so worked up on Jungkook. He's an idol just like you told me. He doesn't actually care about you. All he cares about is graduating so he can just focus on what he actually has to do. Unlike him, I actually care about you. Stop wasting your time on him, because either way when he's out of this place, he's going to forget all about you.

Hyunmi for the past few days has been an emotional wreck. So this situation just isn't helping. A few tears are rolling down her cheeks as her voice breaks as she speaks.

Hyunmi: I never said that the whole reason I am the way I am right now is all because of him. You can bash on me all you want but, leave him out of this. He doesn't deserve it, really. He's a good guy. You wanna know why I'd choose Jungkook over you? It's because he's nothing like you. You need to stop assuming things when you don't know the facts because Jungkook is literally like 5% of the reason I am the way I am these past few days. Goodbye Hanyong.

Quickly she turns around and walks away. She goes in a random hallway, leans against the wall as her bum drop to the ground. She lays her head back as she looks up at the ceiling as her tears continue to roll down her face.

She stays there for a little while before wiping her tears away, getting up and walking back to her locker. She gets her purse and goes to the nurse's to get an early release. She does so and walks to the lobby, handing the lady at the front her pass and is walking out just Jungkook is coming in. She doesn't notice that it's Jungkook because she's looking down but Jungkook did take note that it's Hyunmi leaving.
