Author's P.O.V

Jangmi couldn't believe it. Was it really that jerk who was looking at her?

She brushed all the bad thoughts away and happily went inside. Jungkook was present and nothing mattered more than that.

That night, she texted Rose. The thought of leaving her was tearing her apart. She told him about Jaehyun and Rose swore she was going to kill him.

After that, Jangmi finished her homework and got ready to sleep. She had to give a presentation tomorrow, so she couldn't mess it up.

Morning came, and Jangmi could be seen panicking about her presentation. What if it went wrong? What if I blacked out?

It took an eternity for Jungkook to make her gain confidence.

She hurried to the collage and crashed in Rose's arms. Even if they were half a day apart, they stilled missed each other.

Jangmi then went off to her class and prepared for her presentation. Everything was ready. It was now time to shine.

The presentation went well and Jangmi got a lot of compliments from her teachers. She was relieved.

The next class was chemistry, aka the class which has THE Johnny as her teacher.

Jangmi patiently waited for him to come and he did, looking godly as ever. Johnny gave her a usual wink and she blushed like a tomato.

Jaehyun then came in, as usual, late that the teacher. He sat on the last benches, away from Jangmi.

The class went smoothly and Johnny and Jangmi used to exchange sneaky glances at each other. Johnny was continuously flirting with her and Jangmi enjoyed it.

And who's blood did boil? Jung Jaehyun's.

Jaehyun's P.O.V

The whole class I could see that loser flirting with Jangmi. Even after my tries, she couldn't fall for me? Is she even human?

Well, after all I am a God. A God of handsome looks.

The class ended thankfully and I saw Jangmi and that loser chatting playfully across the hallway.

As I was moving out, I crossed paths with Mark. What worse could happen today?

"Dude, you lost the bet. And remember, this would be the first bet you've lost." He mocked me and went away.

Well, talking about the bet, the day I had caused a scene in the cafeteria, Rose had come to my house and gave me a good scolding. Not to miss her slap still stings on my cheek.

Taeyong too persuaded Mark to end the bet and as a result, I lost.

Now seeing Johnny and Jangmi in front of me made me go mad. Why him? Why not me?

As I was going by, I met a lot of girls. Hyuna was there, holding a love letter for me. Naeun was there, holding a cake for me. Sooyoung was there with her expensive watch stretched out for me.

Couldn't Jangmi just learn from them?

Is she naive or just plain stupid?

I brushed of those thoughts and went home. Mom and Dad would probably be out, and my younger sister, Irene would be busy with her girls.

Now this is what you call home sweet home. I trudged my way into the house but stopped as soon as I came across my neighbor's gate.

Sure, Jangmi was there yesterday. Did her family move in? It would be great to pester her all time.

I entered my home and stumbled at Mom. Rare sight, I wondered.

"What's up, Mom?" I asked her.

"Oh Jae, you came! Get ready, quickly! We have our guests coming soon!" She practically shoved me.

"B-but who are those guests?" I questioned her. Now, this is what you call uneasiness.

"You'll see. Now go to your room, quickly!" She shouted at me.

Hmph, I have such an annoying mom.

I got ready and saw Irene too. She must have been forced by Mom too. She then suddenly took my arm and started pulling me into the closet.

"What!" I practically screamed.

"Help me with my outfits. Please!" She looked at me pleadingly.

"Why should I? Am I a girl? Do I know which dress to wear? That is practically a stupid idea." I looked at her exasperated.

But, anyways girls are girls. She made me pick an outfit for her.

Jaehyun and his parents were waiting for the guests patiently. Well, only his parents were waiting patiently. Jaehyun was asking the time every two seconds and Irene was checking the door every five seconds.

Great, just great.

Finally the doorbell rang and Jaehyun almost flinched when he saw the sight before him. Jangmi and her parents along with Jungkook were standing there.

His parents ushered them in and explained that Jangmi's parents were their business partners.

Jangmi too seemed surprised. They made Jaehyun and Jangmi sit beside each other and started chatting like families who just met but are soo close.

Kookie was on his phone and Irene went to fix her makeup.

Between the conversation, her parents announced they would be more than happy if Jangmi would marry Jaehyun.

She just choked on her water and stopped herself from fainting. Meanwhile Jaehyun just grazed his fingers on Jangmi's thigh and smirked.

Thankfully, the dinner ended and Jangmi went back home. She immediately texted Rose and the two started hurling abuses at Jaehyun.

Next day, Jangmi went to the university and as she was just passing the teacher's room, she saw something absurd.

She leaned in closer and saw Johnny making out with some girl. She initially screamed and ran to the washroom.

Johnny was cheating on her? Why? Was she no more good? Was she a trash bag?

Tears came streaming from her eyes and her face stung from the betrayal she had just witnessed.

As she was washing her face, she came face to face with Jennie, her high school bully.

She saw Jangmi and pulled her hair and pushed her outside the washroom.

The whole hallway became silent.

"What was that, Jennie?" Jangmi angrily shouted.

"Jealous to see me and Johnny making out, you little piggy?" She laughed and kicked Jangmi on her stomach.

Jangmi coughed uncontrollably and then got up to avoid Jennie. The moment she walked her first step, Jennie shoved her again on the ground and Jangmi fell on Johnny.

Johnny detached himself from Jangmi and and whispered "slut" in her ear before pushing her away.

Jangmi couldn't believe it. Was this the same Johnny who complimented her yesterday?

Just then, Jangmi felt a strong grip on her shoulders and felt a strong chest supporting her weak physique.

She looked up and saw a fuming Jaehyun ready to punch Johnny's face.

He came closer to Johnny and took him by the collar to a stage where Johnny couldn't breathe.

"Did you know what you just did, you loser?!" Jaehyun shouted. He then slapped Johnny and gave him a death threat.

After that, he just left.

And during this whole situation, Jangmi was confused. Did Jung Jaehyun really save her?
