                             Chapter 8

With that I started the car engine and drove back to the office. I still couldn't get over the fact that I am the one in the photos with her. Jaeun is such a clever woman. A part of me was furious over her act but the other was having mixed of emotions.

Though those photos were morphed and held no meaning but it was making him feel something, something he really badly wanted at a time but because of a stupid mistake earlier lead him to such future.

Flashback

School was over and I was heading back home. Suddenly I heard a voice calling for me so I turned around.

"Sunbae!.....Sunbae!"

A short and chubby girl came running towards me. She is a year younger to me and thus not my classmate but because of a school activity we became friends.

"What is it Y/N ?"

" I wanted to talk to you, something important"

"What is it ?" I asked her calmly but she was looking a bit tensed.

" Umm... I... sunbae I wanted to say this for quite a long time but.. I ...umm.." after heaving a sigh she continued, "I like you"

"What ?!"

"I.. l like you"

"Are you crazy Y/N ? How could you even think that I would like you!"

She seemed a bit startled and I could see tears formed in her eyes.

" Look Y/N I don't want to disrespect you but I don't like you in that way. I want a smart and good looking girl of my age. And I like someone else, she's much fit and tall, please don't mind me, it's just my preference, also don't tell anyone about this."

With that I turned back and went to my home. I didn't wait for her response and why would I ? Though she is cute but not my type. I know it's not right to say but she is fat and not too tall. I want my girlfriend to look smart and stunning.

The next day we had our club activity. She was also a part of it so I was expected to see her. As soon as I entered the classroom I saw her sitting on one of the desk. She looked at me, smiled and waved her hand but I ignored her, I didn't wanted to give her any kind of hope so I simply went to my seat beside the girl I have a crush on, my classmate Miyoung.

When I told Y/N that I already like someone, I didn't lied. I do have a crush on Miyoung. She is exactly like my ideal type. She really looks good, unlike Y/N.

The days went by and I still tried to ignore her for obvious reasons. Finally it was our time to graduate and we had our graduation party next week. Also we had to take someone as our date. I found this as my chance to ask Miyoung. Guess it was my lucky time as she said yes.

The day soon arrived and I was waiting for my date outside our school hall. She was yet to come when I saw Y/N walking in my direction in a floor length dress. I must it she was looking good today. She saw me standing but this time she didn't try to talk to me or even smiled, infact she ignored me this time and went straight inside. Honestly I didn't expected her to behave in this way maybe I was so used to her continuous efforts to approach me. I was still wondering when I felt a person behind me.

I looked over my shoulder and saw the one I was waiting for. There she was dressed up, as beautiful as ever. I couldn't wait anymore to spend the most awaited evening with her and with that we both went inside with our arms interwined.

The ceremony began and soon it was time for us students to dance. I guided my girl to the dance floor. We along with our schoolmates began to dance. It was amazing, everyone was having a great time. Me and Miyoung were enjoying each other's company.

I was still on the dance floor with friends when my eyes fell upon Y/N. She was sitting on a chair all alone, looking somewhere else. I don't know but for some reason I felt bad for her. Every single one of us was with someone or the other and were enjoying but she wasn't seemed to. Sitting in a corner all alone. I guess no one asked her too since I saw her arriving alone earlier.

I was still looking at her when her friend came and sat by her but soon she left her to dance with her date. It's not that I hate her or something, she is a nice girl, I like her but not not as a man likes a woman. I only ignored her the in past days because I didn't wanted her to have false hopes.

As soon as she turned her face towards my direction I quickly looked back at my friends. After few seconds I again looked in her direction but this time I saw an empty chair instead of her. Maybe she left. I didn't paid much heed to it and went by Miyoung's side to enjoy the rest of the evening.

2 years later

My school life was over, I was in second year of college now. Miyoung and I were no more together. She found someone in her college and left me saying he is more nice and good looking than me. I was shattered, I mean how can a person like someone because of looks.

One day as I was walking in the hallway towards my class I saw a familiar girl standing in the middle of the hallway searching for something in her bag. I continued to walk, eyes still on her and when she lifted her head, I stopped in my tracks.

Y/N ?

She also stood there, eyes widened as if shocked. I couldn't believe my eyes. She has changed so much. She looks.... beautiful.

"Y/N ?"

I stood in front of her.

"Oh Sunbae... hello"

"Hi...umm...how are you ?" I asked her. I still can't believe my eyes. She is really Y/N ?

"I am good. How are you ?"

"I am good too.... you look different....you've got thinner" she widened her eyes and I realised what I said.

" I mean you are looking beautiful" I palmed my mouth when I realised what I just said.

" Umm.... thanks"

I was about to continue when she excused herself because of her class. I watched her walking away until she was out of my sight.

For the first time I felt something, something different

Being in the same college I used to see her almost everyday, walking in the hallway, laughing with her friends, hanging out in the campus and whenever we came face to face she never failed to me a little smile even though I mistreated her back in the school.

I didn't knew what was happening to me everytime I saw her. I suddenly started to feel nervous. Same kind of nervousness when I used to be with Miyoung. Is it by any chance mean something ?

Did I made a mistake ?
