That jerk

Sounds from the alarm clock playing in the background but the girl under her thick blanket refused to get out of bed, she did not stop whining and even mumbling some incoherent things with closed eyes. Finally, after struggling to reach out for the digital alarm clock, Seoyoo looked at the current time on the clock screen with her eyes barely open due to lack of sleep.

Then the girl put the alarm clock back on the nightstand next to her before she sat at the edge of her bed sleepily, still unable to control her heavy eyes. She reluctantly stepped into the toilet to do her morning routine. She stood in front of the mirror while brushing her teeth but she stopped when she saw the reflection of herself inside the mirror.

She looked mess as if she was awake late at night to drink alcohol to intoxicate herself. A pair of dark circles under her eyes along with swollen eyes and reddened cheeks make her look like she has a hangover. She then released a frustrated sigh before she washed her mouth and brought her hand up to check her own temperature by using the back of her hand. The girl gasped when she felt her forehead is burning hot causing her to pull back her hand.

"I can't believe I got fever after the incident with that jerk!"

Seoyoo mumbled as she made herself into the bathroom to take a shower.

Apparently, she will not go to university today because she was sure that she cannot survive there with her weak body condition like this but she will probably go tomorrow when her fever has subsided a bit. Seoyoo is not sure if she made the wise decision to take a shower a few moments ago because she felt like her body temperature was rising and she started sneezing uncontrollably.

The girl sniffed softly before she climbed back onto her bed and covered herself with a blanket so she could stay warm. She herself does not like when she has a fever because she will change to be so emotional since her parents are not by her side to treat her when she has a fever like a few years ago. Seoyoo wiped away the tears before she opened her nightstand drawer to find the pills she had stored so she could find them easily when she got sick.

She gulped down the medicine with mineral water until she almost finished the whole bottle in a short time. Thanks to the water because Seoyoo was finally able to wet her dry lips. Unbeknownst to her, she slowly brings her hand up to touch her own lips. The incident from yesterday was still fresh in her memory as if it had just happened a moment ago.

"This causes me to hate him even more"

Seoyoo whispered to herself before she makes herself comfortable under the thick blanket, trying her best to sleep.

Meanwhile, at the university, the students seem to be fussier than expected. They kept cursing Seoyoo even though the girl was not present there. This is what happened when a video of her raging and about to hit a student who said bad things to her family spread to all students. Without researching what was really happened between the two students, they without hesitation created a statement that Han Seoyoo is a crazy girl who wants attention.

This finally reached Jung Daewon's ears and he was not sure what he was supposed to do in such a situation. He runs his fingers through his dark brown hair before he let a sigh escape from his mouth, the lunch served in front of him did not succeed in attracting his attention at all.

"Hey, Jung Daewon, why do you look so depressed? Isn't your lunch specially cooked by the chef at this university? do you have no appetite or what?"

One of his friends asked him a ton of questions.

"You talked too much Lee Kyungsoo, he will probably annoyed with you"

The person who sat next to the Kyungsoo guy bumped his elbow softly.

Then he mumbled a quick sorry to Daewon before he resumed eating with full appetite causing the cafeteria table on which they were sitting to be silent again. However, the silence did not last long when one of his other friends clears his throat, making the others look at him.

"I heard that the girl who fought with Seoyoo yesterday was involved in an accident while she was on her way home"

He started the conversation making the other boy gasped in shock.

"What accident?"

Kyungsoo asked curiously.

"If I am not mistaken it was a motorcycle accident, the rider hit her and just left after that"

The male said and shrugged his shoulders.

"I think I will get going first since I have a class right after lunch"

Daewon interrupted in their conversation to get away from them.

Others just nodded their heads and some even said goodbye to him before he left the cafeteria. He actually had no classes after lunch but he only gave an excuse for him to be alone for a while. Daewon decided to walk around the garden located near the academy block to take some fresh air.

"Jung Daewon?"

A soft female voice echoing his eardrums causing him to turn around.

"H-hi, I'm Kang Haejoo f-from photography club and I have reported about Han Seoyoo's action to spread the bad rumors of you so now she's suspended from our club"

The unfamiliar girl said shyly, not forgetting the red blush on her cheeks which was very visible.

"So?"

The only word escaped from Jung Daewon's mouth causing her to look at the male in disbelief.

"Actually I did that to clear your name-"

"As far as I remember, I never told anyone to do that"

Daewon cut her off and resumed his steps to go away from there.

"I r-really like you, Jung Daewon! I like you from the first day I landed my eyes on you.."

The girl moved her gaze somewhere else.
