Chapter 4 - EPISODE•4•

Who even wears this. Kind of bags nowadays?. I really don't want to wear It!....

*AT SCHOOL*

"I hope no one notices my bag!!"

As I proceed to take the water bottle from my bag I see a familiar face..

"Oh..god... I know that face.... It's that guy from yesterday's comic shop!!"

I avoid him start talking with sua and chae-rin.

"What is he doing at our school?"- sua starts

"Was that the new transfer student just now?"-

"Yeah,the cute one... everyone's going crazy over him. I think his name is Jimin. Park Jimin."-

I'm just a third person between them...not even speaking a word.

Their conversation is interrupted by the school bell.

I move towards my next class .

"Hey look... it's jimin....omg!!we share the same class... he's so handsome!!"-sua speaks of excitement.

"nOOOO, why is he coming everywhere I go !!??" Ahh...calm down Jugyeong he doesn't even recognise you...and he isn't following you...stay cool!Even the girl from the convenience store and our next door neighbour thinks there are two of me...he won't recognise me... I'm not so bad at covering my ugly face... I am good at make-up...he won't recognise me!!

"Knock-knock"- sua snaps me out of my thoughts...

"Haa!!?? Oh hii"

"Why do you look so dull and lost?"-

"Ahh... it's nothing!" I assure.

"Btw...the lip gloss I use is on sale today wanna come!!??"-

"Ohh I totally forgot about it...yeah let's go!" I show a thumbs-up.

We both walk by the. Corridor towards the exit of school building all happy, chatting with each other, until my keychain falls off my bag and the worst thing is I don't realise my keychain is no more hanging on my bag chain!!..... I shouldn't have worn that bag to the school that day.....

*At the cafe*

"Oh I've been meaning to ask... you're taking japanese as your second language right??" I think before answering.

"Yeah...since i can use the credits for social studies too"

"You know namjoon right?? There's a guy in his class who's good at japanese and wants to study together. Wanna study with them? We would meet every weekend!"-

"Uhhh.... I still don't understand hiragana..maybe i shouldn't join y'all!"

"Come on!! It'll help your grades alott!! Let's go pleasee!!"-

"Uhh??"

"From what i have heard the guy in namjoons class who's good at japanese is very handsome!!"

"H-Handsome??.....uhh ok I'm ready"

"Woohoo! Then meet us downtown at fhe BUGSTAR tomorrow at two o'clock"-

"Ok...bye take care"

"You too!"-

*AT BUGSTAR*

ugh... I'm so nervous....how would the handsome guy look like?? Ufff i cannot wait anymore....but where is sua....?

"Ahh...sua!! She's there with those guys already...i gues I'm late"

I proceed towards the table. "Hey sua!"

"Oh she's here"-

"Hi guys!"

I was all good and excited to look at the guys until I saw the familiar face again.... He's the same guy from the comic shop!! PARK JIMIN.!!! I suddenly start feeling nervous!! Will he recognise that I hide my ugly face with makeup?? Will he recognise me ?? He may!! Or maybe not!!?

"Sorry.... I'm late" I apologise.

uhh your name??"- the boy besides jimin ask as he pull out his hand in front of me. "Uhh... I'm Park Jugyeong.." I say as we shake hands. His name is Kim Namjoon.....

"Uhh....so you are Park too.." he chuckles and looks at jimin only to see him throwing death glares....

Does this boy even smile!? But why is he here....?? Uhh Jugyeong you're thinking too much.... Just stay calm....but did he recognize me ??

*Peek* *stare* i peek from one eye and pull my eyes down as soon as we make an eye contact and I catch him staring at me in confusion.....did he recognize me !!! Ohh noo jugs stay cool.... panicking will make it even worst...

*NEXT DAY*

*ON MY BED*

....did he recognize me?? No one's ever recognised me yet....he doesn't either, right?? No way...*deep breath* It feels like my head is going to explode even if I think anything else....I need some fresh air and on my way I'll return the comic to the store...

*AT THE STORE*

*INTENSE STARE*I keep staring at the book shelf until I was snapped out of my deep thoughts by a familiar voice it seems.....

"Excuse me!!"-

"Yes ?" I turn to my back to see the face and it's JIMIN again...damn it!! Why is he following me!!?? *Nervous chuckle*

"Can you move over? Behind you there's a comic I want!!"- He speaks so rude...it doesn't suit his cute personality.....ahh why am I even Calling him cute!!?

"Ahh...sure sorry" Huh ?? He didn't recognise me?? That's good!! Seriously?? Is this true!!??

I got worried upon nothing!!

"oh... that one sucked!!" I spoke out of nowhere looking at the comic in his hand.... *Glares*

" I-I mean.... I started reading it .....it was good at first but as it goes further it sucks.....If I were you, I'd read something else....." I speak trying to avoid any eye contact to be saved from his death glares.....uhhh.....damn me and my uncontrollable mouth!!! What if he recognises my voice... You're an Idiot for sure, Jugyeong!!!!

"Then, what would you recommend.....?"-

Omggg!!! He speaks?? I see👀 uhh he's a human *claps in mind* "uhh..me huh??...uh t-this one??!!"

I am all confused and start fumbling..... "Have you read this??"-

"Yes!! It's Ji soo's debut comic...a masterpiece for sure... I recommend it if you like horror and thrills! It has 10 volumes in this series..... It never hurts checking anyways..!!"

Uhh Jugyeong....not again.....why don't you learn how to control your mouth...

*Glares* " it better not suck!!"-

"Ahh it won't... trust me!"

I let out a loud sigh as he leaves.

"Were 'THANK YOUS' made for design??"
