Jin Ha had this thing where he would just get up during a lesson and walk out of the cla.s.s and return when he wanted to, the only subjects he stayed for the entire lessons were maths, English and music, j.a.panese and Chinese he never paid attention in because they were languages his mother spoke, so he knew them well.The other subjects? In high school, he stayed for accounting and history, physics wasn"t his thing but he took the subject anyways because he had no choice because of maths.
Anyways back to the story, today was a normal day and Jin Ha left cla.s.s but only to use the toilet, he was planning on returning to cla.s.s but got sidetracked on the way.
As he was finis.h.i.+ng up in the toilet, he walked the slowest speed you can imagine a healthy 10 year old could walk (O.o).
The first thing you need to understand is that he used the toilet that was the furthest from his cla.s.s on the opposite side of the building, across the school courtyard to be exact.
As he was slowly walking back, a sobbing sound broke Jin Ha"s train of thought and he stopped walking, he turned around and saw that he was the only one in the courtyard, so where was the sound coming from?
He listened for the sound again and noticed that it came from behind a tree, he walked up slowly, you know? Like a thief trying to steal something and not get caught. O.o
When he arrived at the tree, he placed his hands on it and gripped tightly and slowly pulled himself to the side where the sobbing was coming from behind the tree.
Peeping from the other side, Jin Ha looked down and though [Why would you cry alone in the middle of nowhere.] thinking that he wanted to say something but didn"t like humans so he pulled back and was about to walk away when he suddenly stepped on a twig and snapped it.
The sound got the sobbing child"s attention and the child quickly got up and ran around the tree and looked up at Jin Ha, Jin Ha"s back was facing him so he didn"t see the little boy and once the boy saw that Jin Ha was from the same school as him, he ran towards the departing Jin Ha and from behind he grabbed onto Jin Ha"s waist and hugged on to him tightly.
Jin Ha caught a fright from the sudden person behind him and wanted to pull away but was locked in a hold, the little boy was crying behind him and continued to do so, after a few minutes Jin Ha became uncomfortable and grew annoyed.
He placed his hands on the boy"s hands, pulled them apart, spun his body around, put his arms around the boy and hugged him.
"Why are you crying?"
The boy didn"t answer and continued crying. Jin Ha took a deep breath in and exhaled loud and sat down on the gra.s.s and held onto the crying boy.
After 10 minutes the crying stopped and the boy looked at Jin Ha, Jin Ha, on the other hand, was so numb from being in one position and long ago zoned off, to I don"t know where and seeing the blank expression on Jin Ha"s face the boy giggled and pinched Jin Ha"s nose.
He quickly reacted and came back to earth and jumped up, he glared at the boy and said, "Hey! My nose and my ears are off limits."
The sudden shout from Jin Ha gave the boy a fright and he was about to cry but before he could Jin Ha started questioning him "Why are you crying?"
"H.hyung I"m.I"m lost."
"Lost? How can you be lost? Where were you going too?"
"My teacher sent me to the office."
Jin Ha looked at the boy and shook his head, "The office is on the other side of the school."
"Did you go to the office?"
"Mn"
"Then what?"
"I came here and didn"t know where to go after this, everything looks the same."
Jin Ha looked up at the building and turned around to look at the rest of it, indeed it looks the same.
"What cla.s.s are you in?"
The boy shook his head, "Grade 1 something"
Jin Ha held back his laugh, "What"s your teacher"s name?"
The boy looked up at Jin Ha then raised a brow, this change gave it all away, "Don"t tell me you don"t know her name."
"No Hyung, I know her name I just can"t remember it."
Jin Ha"s lips flapped and a strange sound came out, he scrunched his face and pulled his tongue out at the boy and said, "Idiot!"
The little boy folded his arms and turned his back to Jin Ha, tears started forming in his eyes, Jin Ha on the other hand was smiling and placed his hands on the boy"s shoulders and whispered in his ear, "Let"s return you to your cla.s.s but after this you owe me."
The boy turned to face Jin Ha and asked, "Owe you what Hyung?"
He looked at the boy and just smiled, "I"ll tell you when you"re older."
That being said, Jin Ha took the boy by his hand and they walked hand in hand towards the corridor where the grade 1 cla.s.ses were.
On the way, the boy kept looking at Jin Ha and asked him so many questions.
"Hyung, how old are you?"
"10"
"Hyung, how tall are you?"
"I"m short."
"Hyung, why are you not in cla.s.s?"
"I went to the toilet."
"Hyung, what grade are you in?"
"Grade 4"
"Hyung?"
"Mn?"
"What"s your name?"
"Jin Ha"
"Hyung, you"re handsome."
Jin Ha raised a brow after hearing that and looked down at the boy that was skipping besides him, he wasn"t acting properly in Jin Ha"s eyes and it some what made Jin Ha curious about him.
"What"s your name?"
"My name?"
"Mn, what"s your name?"
The boy looked up at Jin Ha and gave him a huge smile, he stopped skipping and hugged Jin Ha"s arm as they were walking and said, "My name is Im Jae Hyun". (Lim Jae Hyun)
Jin Ha looked at him, this person was too strange, he noticed that Jae Hyun"s mouth opened and his left thumb was inserted in his mouth then he felt a sharp pain.
Jae Hyun bit down on his finger for a few seconds then let go and looked up at Jin Ha who was glaring at him and said: "Hyung, don"t forget my name okay."
Jin Ha wanted to smack the s.h.i.+t out of this child but something held him back, he slowly nodded his head as he swallowed his anger.
They arrived at the first cla.s.sroom and Jin Ha knocked on the door, a short lady opened it and looked at the two confused, "Does he belong in this cla.s.s?" asked Jin Ha, the lady shook her head and the two of them walked to the next, a skinny woman opened this time and Jin Ha asked, "Does he belong here?" the lady shook her head and told him to try the 5th cla.s.s, the teacher was searching for the student that didn"t return.
So they went up to the 5th cla.s.sroom and Jin Ha asked Jae Hyun, "Is this your cla.s.s?" Jae Hyun shook his head and Jin Ha didn"t know what to do, he knocked on the door and a lady with gla.s.ses on opened the door, she looked at Jae Hyun and ignored Jin Ha and pulled Jae Hyun into her arms and hugged him, "I was so worried" she said.
She stood up from crouching with Jae Hyun in her arms and closed the door behind them, leaving Jin Ha standing there.
[Not even a thank you] he thought but didn"t mind, he walked even slower than normal and rubbed his thumb where Jae Hyun bit him, the anger he felt earlier slowly returned and as he grew more and more furious, he felt something pull on his s.h.i.+rt from behind.
When he turned back to look at what it was, it was Jae Hyun.
"Hyung, don"t go."
Jin Ha looked at him with a confused look, [What is it now?] he wondered.
"Did something happen, is that not your cla.s.s?"
Jae Hyun shook his head and was very fidgety, "Hyung, bend down."
Jin Ha kneeled in front of Jae Hyun and looked at him, Jae Hyun leaned forward and hugged Jin Ha, "Thank you for bringing me back to my cla.s.s, I"m sorry I was a nuisance."
"Mn, it"s alright you weren"t a nuisance, hurry up and go to cla.s.s, Hyung must go back too."
Jae Hyun slowly turned his head and looked at Jin Ha who was looking at him from the corner of his eyes, Jae Hyun slowly let go of Jin Ha"s neck and smiled, he quickly moved his head back then forward again and kissed Jin Ha on his lips.
Jin Ha"s eyes widened with shock and before he could act Jae Hyun had already run back to his teacher and into the cla.s.s, Jin Ha looked ahead at the teacher that was looking back at him, he could see that she was also shocked at what Jae Hyun just did too.
Jin Ha got up and walked back to his cla.s.s when he arrived the teacher asked him where he had been but was ignored by Jin Ha, he sat down at his desk, looked at the board and started writing down his work and once he was done with that he placed his head on the desk and fell asleep.
