"I was actually about to do that. I really don't like me staying at this school either. She'd just bully me more" I shrugged as if it was nothing when it really was bothering me.

Jimin kept his hand onto the door nob as he looked at me with pity. Then he walked back to me after a few seconds of him thinking.

As he walked close to me he pulled me into a tight but gentle, warm hug. As we hugged, he slowly rocked me from side to side. But we didn't stay hugging more than 30 seconds.

After we both let go of the hug, Jimin made sure I dialed my mom's number on my phone to call her.

Then he waved me goodbye and left. He didn't want me staying in the P.E. room all by myself for too long so I promised him I'd leave after calling my mother.

Mom: "hello?"

Krua: "hey, mom?"

Mom: "Krua, what's the matter?"

Krua: "can you pick me up from school early? I don't feel very well"

Mom: "Okay I'm coming for you now okay?"

Krua: "yeah... please"

After the phone call I left the P.E. room quickly as possible and walked to the sick room and waited for my mom to come pick me up.

She finally came and I immediately stood up and hugged her.

"how are you feeling?" she asked as she felt my forehead with the back of her hand. "you don't have a fever.."

I replied, "I just don't feel well. Can we talk more when we're in the car? I have something I need to tell you"

"Sure we can" she took my book bag off my back then we left the sick room and went to the office so she can sign me out.

My mom knocked on the door then walked in. She wrote whatever stuff on a paper then we went into her car.

While she was driving she asked, "what is it that you needed to tell me Krua?".

I played with my fingers for a bit then responded, "I want a transfer.. please mom I'm begging you"

"Why?" she asked and so I told her everything what happened. I also told her about the situation with Mr. Clox and Jimin. But what she hated the most was that Garlsie bullied me. She even wanted to turn her car around and go back to the school building.

She told me she was going to get me a transfer tomorrow because she was so disgusted and also sad-mad because I kept the thing with Garlsie bullying me a secret from her.

We finally got home and she made me iced chocolate tea then we both sat down together and talked. Mostly about my school life.

When it was night and I settled myself in my bed to write, my phone began to ring. When I saw Jimin's name I got both excited and nervous. He wanted to videochat. We voice chat each other a few times before but never video.

I swiped answer after I hesitated for a few seconds. My heart started beating really fast when I saw him. He was laying on his bed with his hair cutely messy, and he wore a plain white shirt. I've never seen messy hair Jimin before although we've known each other for almost 4 months.

"hey Krua. How are you feeling?" he asked as he smiled into the camera. I stuttered, "I-- I'm... fine" then I pretended to cough.

"Sorry I didn't call or text you since you got back earlier. I wanted to give you time to... relax I guess" he said shyly. Little did he know I was iching to text him but I just didn't want to seem desprate.

I replied, "Oh, that's okay. Thanks" After a few seconds of silence and Jimin playing with his hair he then said, "you seem more shy and quiet on video chat than you are in real life. This is how you were when we first met, really shy. You still are which is cute but you were like really shy like now".

My heart skipped a beat when I heard the word cute. I then said, "Uh... I told my mom and she's getting me transferred out of the school tomorrow. She was pretty mad"

"I mean, who wouldn't be mad? Those two are annoying, mean, hypocritical and fake" Jimin raised his tone a little bit. His voice then went softer again. "My parents already got back home from work but I still didn't tell them about today. I might tell them later tonight or tomorrow"

"I hope they end all contact with Mr. Clox when you do tell them" I responded. But it seemed like Jimin had nothing else to say because he just silently stared into the carmera. He then positioned himself to lay on his stomach, causing his phone to shake because of his movement.

Jimin then placed his hand underneath his chin as he stared into the carmera. I felt shy and just pretended to get something out of my finger nails, then I pretended to cough again, softly saying excuse me afterwards.

"How are you feeling?" Jimin asked softly, his hand still resting underneath his chin. "You told me earlier that you were fine but I really want to know how you are actually feeling"

I looked at him while playing with my fingers. "I... I actually am okay. I feel okay knowing that I don't have to put up with Garlsie anymore"

Jimin smiled as he still continued staring at me. "that's good. But there will be bullies everywhere okay? Maybe not as extreme as Garlsie but there will be people who'll insult you and talk behind your back, but never keep it a secret. Talk to me, tell me how you feel"

I replied, "Garlsie never used to like, bully me a lot before but she did act fake towards me. The reason she got extreme it's because... you know.."

Jimin instantly said, "yeah I know. But you're worth so much more than how Garlsie treated you. No one deserves to be treated like that-- especially no girl of mine. I'll make sure people leave you alone. Let them know that they do not wanna cross the line"

I smiled because I found it cute. He actually looked angry which made me feel some type of way that I don't know how to describe, but it's a good thing.

After half an hour of videochatting I finally felt less shy and nervous about it. We talked for two hours more then ended the call after spending another ten minutes telling each other goodnight and goodbye.
