If I had to rate my life right now on a scale of TEN, it would be a Four..
Definitely a Four...
And my love life? A big ass zero...
Why do I rate my life and love life that low you ask? Well let me tell you.
It all started back in High school when I was 16 years old.
( 6 years ago)
I was walking through the hallways, searching for my class. It was my first day at my new school and I was super excited.
I was so busy taking in my new environment that I totally wasn't aware of the boys who were coming my way from the opposite direction.
Of course I ended up bumping into one of them. The worse thing was, the guy I bumped into wasn't just someone.. it was the most popular guy in school. Wong Yukhei, also known as Lucas.
Of course I didn't know that at first, so the stupid, young and naïve me just apologized quickly and continued walking.
''Hey You!'' I heard the boy call out to me. I froze in my spot and slowly turned around to face the now angry looking boy.
I couldn't help but to scan his features with my eyes. He wasreally tall, a bit taller than me actually. He had dirty blond colored hair andbig, dark eyes. He had earrings in both of his ears and he was very manly looking. The best thing was that his toned body was visible underneath his uniform.
Yes.. I am gay.
Anyway, that's not the point right now.
The angry looking boy was now making his way over to me and the two other boys who were grinning widely behind him were following.
I gulped before letting out a quiet ''Y-Yes?''
The boy halted himself in front of me and looked me up and down before fixating his cold eyes on mine fearful looking ones.
''you just bumped into me and dared to continue walking?'' he asked with his low, manly and husky sounding voice. ''w-what? I.. I apologized.. '' I stammered.
''You call that apologizing?! Do you even know who you're talking to?!'' one of the boys behind him yelled at me making me flinch.
''I-I'm S-sorry'' I apologized again in fear. Almost on the edge of crying.
The blond haired guy pushed the other guy slightly back. ''let's not make the new kid scared'' he said while the other two started chuckling .
''what's you're name, new guy?'' he asked with a low voice, staring at me with an intense stare. ''K-Kim Jungwoo..'' I introduced myself.
''alright Kim Jungwoo. I'm Lucas. Keep that in mind'' he said with a smirk on his face before turning around again, heading off with the two other guys following him.
From that moment on I knew I already fucked up. and I sure was right.
As if i wasn't lucky enough, Lucas happened to be in the same class as me. as well as his two minions who's names where WinWin and Johnny.
They made my school life a living hell. It started with harmless things like, throwing paper balls at me with writings on it, saying I was a nerd or a suck up to the teacher.
Then it became name calling like 'Loser' or 'ugly nerd'.
Then the writing on the desk and stealing my clothes began, following up with throwing dirty water on me when I was on the toilet.
This went on for a long time. But luckily I was also able to make some friends. I actually had two best friends. Doyoung and Yuta. They always stuck up for me whenever Lucas and his minions bullied me.
As time went by, I actually fell in love with someone. His name was Jaehyun and yes, it was a boy. We became friends at first but after spending a lot of time together we both found out that we had mutual feelings for each other.
I remember feeling so happy when he confessed to me. it was a sunny day and we were at a park. We actually ended up having our first kiss. Nothing could ruin that feeling anymore.
Or at least that's what I thought.. of course I was wrong. someone did ruin it for me.
And yes, his name was Lucas.
Lucas happened to be there the exact same moment when Jaehyun and I had our first kiss. He decided to take a picture of us and ended up spreading it around school.
The bullying became worst after everyone found out that Jaehyun and I were both gay and dating each other.
Jaehyun panicked and ended up moving away after he broke up with me.
The kids at school on the other hand had a new thing to bully me with. They kept on calling me names like 'disgusting Fag' and everyone stayed away from me cause they were afraid that they would get the same 'disease' as I had, which they named the 'Fag disease' .
Life became unbearable for me. I was getting depressed and even ended up having bad thoughts.. But I was too scared to hurt myself and I couldn't leave my sister behind.
Luckily Doyoung and Yuta never left my side. They accepted me for who I was and never stopped sticking up for me against all the bullies.
After two years of bullying, it slowly stopped. Lucas had no longer interest in bullying me which was a relieve. He was too busy with fucking girls and partying.
Before I knew it, I was finally finished with school and started working as a Korean Manwha artist. Something I loved doing was drawing. Drawing helped me a lot with my depression.
(present day)
Till this day, I have no idea what happened with Lucas and I honestly don't care.
Right now I'm trying to focus on my own life and my own happiness.
I'm so happy that I still have Yuta and Doyoung by my side. Our friendship is still as strong as ever and we meet up with each other almost every day.
Everything was just perfect. That was until I suddenly found out that my sister, Seola was engaged..
I didn't even know she was dating someone in the first place!
How can she not tell her own brother?!
***********************************************************************
''Seola is engaged?!'' Yuta and Doyoung yelled in unison. Both of them are staring at me with widen eyes and dropped jaws.
I gave the both of them a quick nod and continued eating my food.
''wow, didn't know she was dating someone'' Yuta said amazed. ''Who is this guy she's engaged to anyway?''
I shrugged my shoulders. ''dunno. I didn't know she was dating someone either. But she wants me to meet him tonight at some restaurant. All I know is that he's apparently some famous model and I guess that's the reason why she didn't tell me this sooner'' I said with a monotone voice as I was munching on my food.
''famous?! Damn, this makes me even more curious'' Doyoung shrieked excited.
''Dude, how can you still eat and be so calm when you're brother in law is some famous model?'' Yuta looked at me with an 'wtf' expression.
''First of all, I'm hungry alright? I have been working on my new Manhwa project for hours without eating.. and second. I don't give a shit about models or famous people so why should I care?'' I said nonchalantly.
Yuta and Doyoung gave each other a quick look before shaking both their head. Letting out a defeated sigh.
***********************************************************************
Hours went by and It was almost time to meet up with my sister and her fiancé.
I got dressed up and checked myself one last time in the mirror. When everything looked perfect I headed off to the restaurant.
Once I arrived, I saw Seola already sitting at the reserved table.
''Jungwoonie! I'm so happy you came!'' she said while she got up from the chair and hugged me tightly.
''of course I came, are you here alone?'' I asked her, while checking out the surroundings.
''yeah, he told me he's running a bit late because of traffic. But he will be here shortly'' she said.
we both sat down at the table and ordered something to drink.
''I'm so excited for you to meet him Jungwoo ah. I'm telling you, this man is such a sweet heart and charming and really handsome too. He treats me like a princess. I'm sure you'll like him too'' She smiled warmly at me.
I returned her smile. ''I'm really happy for you sis. I'm sure he and I will get along just fine''
A pinging sound was heard from Seola's phone and she took a quick glance at it.
''oh he's here. Wait here, I'm gonna go get him'' She said as she got up and left.
I took a sip of my champagne. And scanned the room. it was filled with couples and some business looking people.
I couldn't help but to fill a bit nervous. I mean, this guy is a famous model.. she told me that he's a sweet heart but.. is he really?
What if he doesn't like me and we're not able to get along? That would hurt Seola..
I'm probably overthinking this all. I couldn't be that bad, right?
Seola finally returned and I noticed a tall man behind her. I couldn't really see his facial features since he was wearing dark glasses. He had brownish hair, thick eyebrows and plump lips. this reminded me of someone...
''Jungwoonie , meet my finance..'' the tall guy took his glasses off and our eyes finally met.
No way..
''Wong Yukhei''
His lips formed into a smirk while his eyes looked straightly into mine.
''It's nice finally meeting you, Kim Jungwoo''
