Jeon Jungkook has this class with me.

I groaned and took my seat and noticed only two chairs weren't occupied. Silence filled the entire class because girls are too busy fixing their hair and their clothes.

I rolled my eyes and scoffed softly.

As expected, Jungkook slammed the door open and the girls couldn't help but scream. As much as I wanted to glare at him, I fought with myself and decided not to bother.

I started doodling random things before a voice from behind spoke. "Why are you sitting here?"

I shut my eyes hard, trying to control myself. I didn't bother to look at the person because I already knew who it was.

"What's your problem if I sit here?" I said in a bit of a threatening tone.

"My problem is that you are sitting in front of me and it bothers me."

I raised an eyebrow and scoffed. "Then sit somewhere else."

"But I don't want to."

I was about to speak but the teacher came in the room and shot us a death glare.

Ms. Ryeo never liked us. Jungkook and I would, most of the time, be sent to detention because we often argue about the most irrelevant things.

I felt Jungkook smirk behind me and I groaned quietly to myself. I sighed and listened to the teacher; trying to stay calm whenever Jungkook would poke my back.

I walked along the sidewalk with my backpack slung around my shoulder.

It felt so lonely walking back home every day. I remember when my father used to pick me up from school when he was still here.

We would talk about the most random things. He'd ask me how school was and I'd ask him how work was. He'd skip a few minutes of work just to pick me up from school.

And then there's my mom. I missed her cooking and how she'd hug me every time I'm feeling down. I remember when I cried for hours because of Jungkook. I wanted everything to stop, but I couldn't. He'd still annoy me every now and then. My mom found out about Jungkook and the bruise he gave me. She also found out that one time, I came home with water all over my clothes and the students in school would laugh at me. My mom would buy me ice cream and cook me my favorite food every time just to cheer me up.

I didn't even notice the small tear that has already dropped from my eyes, falling down until it reached my neck.

I was already standing in front of my house and before unlocking it with my key, I sighed. Maybe I just needed a little bit of love.

I opened the refrigerator and looked for something to eat. To my relief, I found 2 sandwiches that's enough to fill my stomach.

I plopped myself in the couch and ate my sandwiches. I started thinking about what I thought a minute ago.

Maybe I just needed a little bit of love.

I couldn't really talk to people, because I felt like everyone already hated me. Everyone adored Jungkook so much. He was attractive and popular, every girl would die just to be with him. Everyone targeted me because they knew I was his victim.

I couldn't help but feel lonely and unloved. I felt like it's just me against the entire world. I needed someone, someone who I could count on, someone who I trust and tell all my problems to, someone who I enjoy talking to every time:

That's when it hit me. I needed love from someone- a person. I grinned and took my phone out from my pocket and installed a dating app.

Then again, everyone hated me. So why not disguise myself?

17. Single. Lives in Seoul. Needs love. Is not some crazy psychopath. Does not bite (too hard).

Excellent! Now let's look for your partner.

10 minutes have passed and I have yet to find someone that I actually liked. I groaned to myself and cancelled almost everyone I saw.

My profile picture is a beautiful model that hopefully no one recognizes. Honestly, if someone does, I'd be screwed.

Maybe a dating app won't work, I thought to myself. I was about to turn off my phone before I found someone that was very close to my ideal type.

"Lonely, huh?" Noticing we were in the same shoe, I gave him a go. His profile picture seemed mysterious. It was him in a hoodie so I guess I couldn't quite see his face.

A few minutes passed by and I realized that I already matched with him.

He sent me a text and I thought that maybe this person would actually be someone interesting by the looks of things. So why not reply back?
