Time Check: 12.17pm
'jinhee!'
i heard a familiar voice call out to me, as the thoughts in my head debated if i should respond to him or just ignore him.
after all, all he ever does is annoy me.
'what is it?'
i turned towards the source of the voice, as i decided that i would just respond since i was feeling nice today.
'are you going to the cafeteria?'
jungkook asked, as he raised an eyebrow.
'is that even a question?'
i scoffed. of course i would go to the cafeteria, it's my fucking home.
jungkook rolled his eyes as i noticed taehyung staring at me weirdly. i mean, he was still expressionless but...i don't know.
i stared back at taehyung as i flashed him back a weird look.
'what do you want, taehyung? if you thought i stole your soft toy, fluffy, i didn't alright?'
i jokingly said, as jimin started laughing and hitting me softly. taehyung remained unfazed.
does he not have face muscles?
i mean, he looks way better when he smiles, even though he's already insanely god-like.
okay i did not just say that. i must be losing my fucking mind hanging out with so much dudes. i better stick with haeun and sujin, what the fuck.
'um jinhee? can i talk to you for a while?'
i heard a soft voice say, as i turned towards jimin.
no, because i don't want my heart to crumple and turn into ashes, pft.
'okay.'
i agreed as i smiled, just in case it's something important and he needs someone to listen to him.
'we'll be right back!'
jimin said to jungkook and taehyung as taehyung was still looking at me weirdly and jungkook crossed his arms.
'where the fuck are y'all going? can't we come too?'
jungkook huffed, as jimin shook his head.
'nope. but don't worry, we'll be back soon, okayyyyy?'
he said, as he quickly grabbed my hand and pulled me somewhere.
let go of my hand right the fuck now please.
jimin dragged me to a secluded corner which i was not familiar with.
okay but honestly, i don't know many parts of the school as i don't give a fuck about it and if i had the chance, i would set the building on fire.
'what is it, jimin?'
i asked, concerned. i was really hoping it was not going to be a bad thing, he deserves something positive, for once.
his back was facing me as he slowly turned towards me with a slight smile.
'jinhee, can i tell you something?'
jimin said, as his smile faded.
i gulped, he sounded serious.
'okay...what is it?'
'i'm auditioning for another company.'
jimin declared, as he purses his lips.
my eyes lit up instantly.
'really?! that's great! which company?'
i exclaimed excitedly, as i was truly happy for him. he shouldn't have to give up on his dream just because 47 stupid companies were blind.
'silvermist company.'
he replied, as i nodded.
why did i even ask?
i don't even know any entertainment companies in korea.
'that's great, jimin. i knew you wouldn't give up so easily.'
i said, as i gave an awkward thumbs-up to him.
someone tell me why the fuck am i like this?
'yes, but...'
jimin started speaking once more,
as he hung his head low.
i frowned.
'but what?'
'this is going to be the last time.'
he said, still looking down onto the floor.
i bobbed my head unknowingly to one side. 'huh? what do you mean by last time?'
he sighed, as he looked up at me sadly and smiled.
'it's going to be the last time i'm auditioning. the last time i'm going to try being a dancer. the last time i'm going to pursue this dream.'
he said quickly, as he arched his eyebrows seriously.
he gulped.
'after this, if i get rejected again, i...'
he paused for a while, before continuing:
'i'm gonna give up...for good."
jimin said, as his voice cracked at the last two words.
my mouth hung wide as i widened my eyes in concern. i furrowed my eyebrows as i started thinking about what i should say to him.
'w-wait...but—'
i was about to protest, when jimin cut me off.
well that's rare.
'no jinhee, i...i don't think i have the strength and willpower to keep on auditioning and keep on getting rejected. i'm tired, jinhee.'
jimin said, demoralised.
that last sentence hit me like a fucking brick.
i hesitated for a while as i furrowed my eyebrows and thought about this whole situation.
it was true, jimin has been rejected so many times. i'm aware that getting rejected constantly can be very demoralising, and discouraging.
but, at the same time, i really didn't want to see jimin give up his childhood dream. it has almost been a month since we knew each other, but i just had this gut that he was born to be a dancer.
i really didn't want him to give up.
i looked at jimin slightly as i saw that his eyes were looking down towards the floor once more, and i sighed.
i didn't want jimin to suffer, not anymore.
i clicked my tongue in dilemma, as i sighed.
'okay jimin, as much as i really don't want you to give up your dream, i just don't want to see you constantly get hurt. but, just promise me, you'll do your best for this audition. do your best, so that no matter what the results are, you won't have any regrets, okay?'
i said, as i raised both eyebrows as an indication for him to promise me.
he lifted his head from the ground as he looked at me and smiled slightly. he nodded as he pulled out his right pinky, wanting to lock pinkies with me.
i gulped, i'm no wuss.
i cleared my throat as i pulled out my right pinky to lock our pinkies.
'hold on. one more thing.'
i said, just before locking pinkies with jimin.
'promise me you'd eat well, and you won't starve yourself, or force yourself to throw up, or any shit like that. promise me you won't do any of it.'
i said seriously.
jimin sighed.
'i'll try—'
'bitch no—i mean, no. you can't try, you must.'
i protested, as i didn't wait for his answer and forced him to lock pinkies with me.
'you can't break a pinky promise—although, technically i did say promises were meant to be broken but not a pinky
promise. also, your pinky's fucking microscopic.'
i said quickly without thinking, as jimin stared at me in shock at my last sentence before bursting out in laughter.
'yes i know.'
he replied, as he smiled cheekily.
i swear i hate his smile.
'when's your audition?'
i asked curiously.
'in two weeks. i've been practicing really hard for this. like, really really hard. but if i don't get in...'
jimin trailed off sadly, as i frowned again.
i shook my head.
'no no no, jimin. you will make it. just do your best and please just believe in yourself.'
he sighed, and was about to reply when a loud, familiar ringing filled the area.
wait...that sound...
no fucking way.
my eyes immediately widened as i helplessly watched jimin take out his phone from his pocket.
not now. not now.
please not now.
but what could i do? i couldn't stop him from checking his phone. the alarm was deafening and knowing how the system works, it just won't stop ringing until he checks it.
this is getting creepy, the timing is just too...right.
'did someone change my ringtone? it was never like that. what a horrible ringtone.'
jimin stated, as he switched on his phone before furrowing his eyebrows in confusion.
'w-what?'
jimin said as he raised an eyebrow quizzically.
i gulped nervously, as i tried to act as normal as possible.
'wait i have no idea what this app is saying. jinhee, what is it saying?'
jimin said, turning to me as he showed me his phone.
'huh? what?'
i questioned, as i pretended i didn't know what the fuck he was talking about.
'this.'
he replied, showing me his phone.
i saw the same balloon-like thingy that appeared on my phone yesterday. just that, this time. it was blue.
on it, was written:
'BLUE ALERT!
Someone within a 100km radius
from you has taken a liking
towards you!'
fuckfuckfuck.
that's it, i'm uninstalling this app.
i awkwardly laughed.
'wait where did you get that from?'
i feigned innocence, as i pretended to be unaware of where that was from.
'matchmaker, obviously.'
jimin flashed me a 'duh' look as i felt like slapping myself there and then.
'oh, wait what? that shit's real?'
alright guys, i'm convinced i can be an actress.
'i don't know...does this mean someone likes me?'
jimin said innocently, as i mentally facepalmed.
no shit, sherlock.
'uhh...maybe? i mean, it's probably fake and unreliable. i wouldn't give a fuck if i were you.'
i said, hoping he would just ignore it.
'okayyyyy—wait.'
he said, cutting himself off as he received a text on his phone.
'the auto-messaging system just texted me that i should give a fuck because it is real.'
jimin said, confused, as we both turned to look at each other in confusion.
'what the—how did they...'
i muttered to myself, as i started looking around us as i was convinced someone was spying on us.
'that's so creepy.'
jimin stated, as he switched off his phone quickly and placed it into his pocket.
'let's just ignore it for now?'
i tried convincing him to let it go again. there's no way in hell he can know about this.
'wait, jinhee—do you think it can only detect people who has the app? i mean, if an alarm is sent through my phone, the person who apparently likes me must've received an alarm on her phone too. it's just how it works, right?'
jimin said.
'uhhh...i don't know honestly. i don't think so though?'
i lied once more.
i don't think so, i know so.
jimin sighed.
'this is my first time receiving such a thing. i don't really know what to do though, i don't wanna hurt anyone.'
he said genuinely, as i frowned.
he wasn't going to hurt me, right?
i cleared my throat awkwardly.
'just ignore it and head back.'
i suggested, as jimin nodded and we both decided to head back to the cafeteria.
'wait, jimin. just remember...remember that you're good enough. and don't do all those shit to yourself anymore, please?'
i said, as i looked at him, concerned. i was really hoping he would stop.
he smiled faintly and nodded.
i heaved a sigh of relief and smiled back before the both of us headed back to the cafeteria.

— a few minutes later —
'where did you guys even go? why did y'all take so fucking long? what were y'all even doing?'
jungkook started bombarding jimin and i with questions as i rolled my eyes in annoyance.
'kook, it has only been 10 minutes.'
taehyung said nonchalantly, giving him an 'are you serious?' look.
jungkook rolled his eyes in annoyance and he crossed his arms, sulking.
taehyung scoffed at jungkook as he leaned towards him and whispered something causing jungkook to widened his eyes in shock and push taehyung off the bench.
thud!
he landed right under the cafeteria bench.
'MOTHERFUCKER—'
taehyung was about to swear at jungkook, when jungkook used his foot to kick taehyung's...ass.
'WHAT THE FUCK? IM YOUR HYUNG, YAH!'
taehyung shouted, as jungkook stuck out his tongue at him and flashed him two of his middle fingers.
how yoongi-inspired.
'don't hit your head while trying to get up!'
jungkook told taehyung, as he rolled his eyes and stomped off.
jimin was laughing at taehyung before taehyung flashed him a look, making him shut up.
'i'm sorry tae, that was too funny. here, let me help."
jimin offered as he stretched out his hand, as taehyung sulked and slapped his hand away.
'ugh, whatever—'
taehyung groaned as his words got cut off, his head hitting the bottom of the bench.
'OUCH!'
i know,
karma's a bad bitch.

— time skip to school dismissal —
{ haeun's pov }
'we've been standing here for SO LONG! where the fuck is she? FUCKING TELL ME KIM SUJIN!'
i whined, clutching onto sujin's arm and shaking her vigorously.
oh well, i know she's too nice to stop me anyway. am i an evil, mean bitch? honestly, yes.
'SUJIN SUJIN SUJIN TELL ME TELL ME TELL ME WHERE IS SHE? WHAT THE FUCK? WE'VE BEEN STANDING HERE FOR LIKE—'
i paused, as i checked my phone for the time.
'3 MINUTES. that's too fucking loooooooong.'
i complained, as i shook sujin once more.
'gosh haeun, stop! what the...FRICK FRACK is wrong with you?'
sujin said, pausing in between as she thought about a non-curse word to use.
i rolled my eyes.
'you know you can just say fuck you know—OH LOOKIE IT'S ONE OF JINHEE'S HOT FRIENDS!'
i said, cutting myself off..wait is that even possible? oh well whatever.
i pointed to the dude who was walking down the stairs, with his bag slung over one shoulder, and wearing a pair of gamer-looking headphones.
hm, why is he alone? doesn't he always hang out with his two other dudes?
'hold on, sujin. i'm just gonna ask him where the fuck jinhee is because I—WANT—MY—FUCKING—BINGSU. BE RIGHT BACK!'
i told sujin, as i released my annoyingly tight grasp around her arm and walked towards him.
'HELLO!'
i said loudly, in case he couldn't hear me through his earphones.
he got startled as he jumped slightly, furrowing his eyebrows as he realised i called him.
he flashed me a weird look before adjusting his earphones and walking away.
he. just. ignored. me.
i'm sure loving that.
i made a funny mocking face at his back before catching up to him, hitting him hardly on his back.
'OUCH! OUCH! WHAT THE FUCK—WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU?!'
he said, wincing in pain as he reached his hand to his back, rubbing the spot i hit him at.
i ignored his question as i asked him, 'do you know where jinhee is?'
he gave me a quizzical look as he took out his headphones.
'wait, what?'
i rolled my eyes.
'I SAID, WHERE THE FUCK IS JINHEE? DO. YOU. KNOW. OR. NOT????'
i shouted, ignoring the weird glances everyone was flashing at me as they walked past us.
'YOU DON'T HAVE TO FUCKING SHOUT!'
he shouted back, as he placed his hands on his ears.
'anyways, i don't fucking know. she's probably coming out with jimin."
he sulked, emphasising the word 'jimin' on an extremely annoyed tone.
'why are you not with them?'
i asked curiously, as i glanced back at the school's exit to check if jinhee was coming out anytime soon.
'because we've officially cut off terms with one another, they were being pricks and i don't befriend pricks—'
he was about to finish his sentence when an unfamiliar, high-pitched voice interrupted him:
'KOOK OPPA!'
i'm sorry but ew. someone get me outta here.
we both turned our attention to the source of the voice, as i literally saw the asian version of regina george strutting towards me.
she wore a fucking pink fluffy jacket with a fucking big channel sign printed right smack on the jacket with her fucking chanel bag. not to mention, why did it look like her hair was sprinkled with gold flakes?
someone get me eye drops, what the fuck.
'ANNYEONG OPPA! WERE YOU WAITING FOR ME—'
she paused as her excited grin turned into a scowl when she saw me standing beside the dude.
'who the fuck is she?'
she asked him, but was busy looking at me with literal venom in her eyes.
'listen, regina, don't worry i'm not here to steal your gamer boy but i'm just asking him a few questions IF YOU DON'T FUCKING MIND.'
i said, not holding back at all.
'regina? REGINA?! who the fuck is that? what a hideous name! please allow me to introduce myself and you better fucking get my name into your head because if you cross me, it's not going to do you ANY FUCKING GOOD. my name is—'
she literally shrieked at me, and started spitting out nonsense out of her mouth so fucking fast that i couldn't catch a single word she said, before she got cut off by the dude.
okay fine, i know his name is jungkook.
'areum, get the fuck away. i was not waiting for you, so you can fuck off now.'
jungkook snapped, narrowing his eyes at her.
'excuse me? no, you don't mean it, oppa! i know you don't! i like you and you like me too!'
she counted back, as she pushed past me and walked towards jungkook and started clinging onto his arm.
is this a bad time to laugh?
oh well, i laughed.
'excuse me, why are you laughing?'
she said, turning her attention from jungkook to me now, glaring at me.
'areum, just get the fuck away, JESUS FUCKING CHRIST!'
jungkook lashed out, as my eyes widened.
'hold up. HOLD UP. areum? AREUM?! as in the bitch who kept calling jinhee a slut?! damn, talk about double standards.'
i said without thinking, as i crossed my arms.
'what did you just say?'
areum turned towards me, her hands detached itself from jungkook's arms.
'oh, i said you were short.'
i replied, sticking my tongue out at her.
i noticed her take a deep breath, as she closed her eyes dramatically and handed her chanel bag to the girl besides her.
'eunha, hold my bag.'
she ordered, as her little sidekick took her bag without hesitation.
i was going to roll my eyes at the way she treated her supposedly 'best friend' when i suddenly saw her hand flying towards my face.
smack.
