chapter 13

"Watch your mouth, Mr Young." The teacher warned. "That kind of behaviour is not welcomed in my classroom."

"Sorry, Sir." The student apologised with no remorse. If Jisung wasn't such a timid person he'd definitely stand up right now and, well he didn't know what he'd do, but he'd do something to put him into his place. 

The teacher nodded at the boy's apology before continuing to introduce the lesson, "So, everyone knows what carriers are, right? Males who are capable of being impregnated."

Most students nodded while others let out understanding 'oh's. The majority knew what carriers were but there were still some who didn't. Some parents often shelter their children from them. Jisung thought it was stupid because they were going to learn about them whether it be by peers or by school. 

"Does anyone have a dad whose a carrier? If so raise your hand. I'm sure you probably already have knowledge on the subject." The teacher asked the class, in which Jisung and someone else on the other side of the room raised their hands. Jisung turned to look at who else raised their hand, his eyes locking with the boy he met yesterday, Chenle. "Wow, two of you. Usually if anyone does have a carrier parent, there's only one."

"Sir, isn't Mr Kim the math teacher a carrier?" A girl at the front of the classroom asked as Jisung and Chenle lowered their hands. 

"No, Mr Kim is married to a carrier." Another lot of 'oh's filled the room as students nodded in understanding. The teacher then continued on with the class, describing the maternity process of carriers and their anatomy. Jisung was listening intently until a statement from the back of the room destroyed his mood. 

"That's disgusting. Even the thought of two guys doing it is gross." The same guy from before said, all his friends agreed though the one that sat next to said boy looked saddened and hurt. Even as an outsider, Jisung was more aware of the guy's surroundings than he was. "I wonder if anyone in our class is one of those."

"If so, I'm changing classes. I don't want to be in the same room as a dirty fag." Another snarled with distaste. Now that really hit Jisung. He didn't know homophobes still exist and fact that the hatred was so strong really hurt Jisung. 

Chenle on the other side of the room also heard everything the group of boys were saying, though he didn't take it as much to heart as Jisung did. Chenle had encountered such people as them many times before at his old school so he was used to it, Jisung on the other hand, hadn't. The boy's lowered head and clenched white knuckles told him so. 

From then on, the lesson was a long and infuriating one for Jisung. Hearing all those awful things those guys were saying and just sitting there unable to say something because it's just plainly against his nature to. Sometimes he really hated being the 'quiet and polite, Jisung'.

When the bell rang and finally marked the end of the lesson, Jisung immediately stood up from his seat, collected his belongings and left the room. He didn't want to be around such people for any longer. 

Before going to the cafeteria to meet with Jeno, he needed to cool down. The older would definitely sense something is wrong and pry it out of him. Then he'd no doubt go sort out those boys himself or tell Doyoung about it. Jisung didn't want to cause such a ruckus so instead he went to the school garden. He settled down by a tree, sitting down on the soft grass and letting his back lay against the firm trunk. He took turns on taking big breaths, Taeyong once told him that if he ever felt angry it was best to take big breaths to calm himself down. His father was a bit of a hypocrite in that department. 

Jisung suddenly heard someone sit down next to him. It was the new boy from yesterday again, Chenle. He looked awkward though there was a empathetic smile on his pale pink lips.

Chenle didn't know how to comfort the younger though he really wanted to. Instead he thought of what he'd want someone to say to him if he was in that situation. He'd want the person to change the subject and distract him, so that is what he did.

"So... your dad's a carrier, huh?" Chenle asked though he didn't look at the younger, tilting his head to look at the blue sky instead. 

"Yeah." Jisung nodded, following the other in looking up at the sky.  "Yours too, huh?"

"Yeah." Chenle said as he watched the soft clouds slowly pass by in the shallow wind. 

"Oh," Jisung replied, not knowing what to say next to keep the conversation going. It was nice to know that it wasn't only just Jeno and him that had a carrier father. Though, Chenle was still not like him, he probably had another father as well to aid in his dilemas. Jisung envied such people, he wondered what life would be like if his father was a nice person and treated his father right all those years ago. "What's it like to have two dads?"

"Wouldn't know." Chenle shrugged, his shoulder gently nudging against Jisung's bicep as he did. "Only have the one."

"Me too." Jisung smiled, removing his gaze from the vast blue and looking at the boy beside him. Maybe they were more alike than Jisung had thought. 

"Why don't you have two?" Chenle asked, turning to look at the younger with genuine curiosity and interest. The story between his father and 'sperm donor' he calls him, is a long and sad story. He wonders if others went through such misfortune or if it was simply a divorce, which is still disheartening but not as much as getting abandoned and neglected and then left to fend for yourself when you're pregnant at the age of eighteen in a foreign country. 

"It's complicated. What about you? Why don't you have two?" Jisung asked, having the same curiosity as Chenle. He also wonders what it would be like to have a normal family. 

"It's complicated." Chenle sighed, looking back at the sky once more.

"Oh." Jisung nodded in understanding.
