Dealing with a handsome crazy guy TALK
🍓
Honestly, if I said I wasn't scared, I'd be lying. I was scared. A lot. With a bunch of girls standing in front of me, glaring at me with such menacing eyes, who could possibly not be scared? I was certain no one would be.
“Hey, what are you?”
“Huh, huh?”
“Who the hell are you to be hanging out with Taehyung?”
Even I couldn't easily get over Kim Taehyung's name, but they called him so easily. I was so embarrassed to even call him Taehyung that it took me a while... After a moment of that thought, I felt slightly offended by the rude remark, "I'm attached to you." Even if I don't look that good in your eyes, saying "I'm attached to you" is a bit harsh. I'm not some slutty bug.
My brow furrowed. I decided to hold back for a moment, afraid that if I showed my displeasure to them now, they'd tell me to follow them to the rooftop.
"well…?"
"under?"
"But what does it have to do with you whether I hang out with Kim Taehyung or not?"
"Didn't you know? Rumors were spreading everywhere that I liked Kim Taehyung. Are you conscious or not…?"
The moment I heard that from the girl in front of me, I realized something. She thought I'd stolen Kim Taehyung's heart. It was a delusion, a delusion that if I hadn't intervened, she would have been able to date him.
“Ugh… Sorry, I didn’t know.”
“Are you laughing at me just now?”
“No, you keep saying weird things.”
I feel bad for him, but right now, I can't help but find this situation funny. Anyway, Kim Taehyung is meeting with me right now, so what's the point of you guys getting all worked up? I tried to stay still until Kim Taehyung came, but I'm so annoyed I can't do it anymore.
"Just because you like Kim Taehyung, doesn't mean I can't like you? And even if you push it like that, it'll just end if the other person isn't interested, right?"
“This, this crazy bitch!”
Clap! A loud bang echoed throughout the class. Those watching us began whispering as they watched my turned head, and the girl who had slapped me was blushing and grumbling.
My cheek stung. The area where I'd been hit started to heat up and sting. The moment I got hit, I thought, "Am I really that bad?" "Oh, I'm not the type to stand out at school. Am I going to get rumored to be a crazy bitch after seeing this?"
When I looked straight at the girl, cupping her cheek with my hand, she had a look on her face as if she'd won me over. She was grinning, as if she thought she was superior to me.
“You should have done that in moderation.”
"Yeah, I should have. My cheeks hurt so bad. Since I've already been hit like this, why don't you hit me harder? Words are nothing compared to a hand."
"what?"
"Hey, do you think Kim Taehyung will meet you even if you do this for 100 days? He'll never meet you, right?"
“…How can you be sure of that?”
It seems like he's lost his mind after getting hit once. That's why I've been so quiet at school. The moment that kid hits me, I lose control and start the trigger on my mouth. And then I tell them something I'll surely regret later.
“That’s because Kim Taehyung and I are dating?”
I blurted out the words Kim Taehyung and I were dating, and I flinched. Everyone seemed startled by the words coming out of my mouth, and the girl clenched her fists and trembled. I regretted it. They were so annoying, I'd blurted them out in a fit of anger... I didn't want it to be known like this, or to receive this much attention!
“Did you sleep with Kim Taehyung?”
"… what?"
“If that’s not the case, I don’t understand. How can you and Taehyung suddenly…!”
That kid crossed the line. He crossed it so clearly, so excessively. From the moment he mentioned Kim Taehyung and I having an illicit relationship, my whole body froze, unable to do anything. All I could do was clench my fists. My fingernails scraped the inside of my palms, drawing blood.
It was then. Kim Taehyung grabbed my hand tightly and hid me behind him. Just as his remarks had brought silence to the entire school, Kim Taehyung, the one responsible for the uproar, appeared. And with a terrifying expression on his face.
As soon as I saw Kim Taehyung, I felt relieved for a moment, but then I looked up at him with anxious eyes, wondering if he had heard what that girl said.
“Kim Taehyung… Are you by any chance…”
“Lady, let’s stay like this for a moment.”
After Kim Taehyung's words, I couldn't hear anything definitive. I could only feel the warmth of his hand. I couldn't tell what conversation had taken place between Kim Taehyung and the girl. However, judging by the rather hurt expression on her face, I could tell he was on my side.

When Kim Taehyung removed his hand from behind me, everything fell back into place. The girls apologized to me, and the many people who had been watching us went about their daily lives. And we…
“Your cheeks are swollen.”
"okay?"
“Oh, you idiot.”
“I’m not stupid.”
“You’re an idiot.”
The two of us were left in the infirmary. Kim Taehyung, who hadn't listened to my pleas that I didn't need to go, dragged me to the infirmary and sat me down on the bed, then sat down next to me. He then pointed to my cheek, where the girl had hit me, and engaged in some silly banter.
“Mr. Lee, you’re not stupid!”
"You're not stupid, are you? You get hit by them. You hear dirty words you don't need to hear. You're such an idiot."
“That, that is…!”
Feeling a bit wronged by Kim Taehyung's words, I pout my lips and try to refute him. But I can't do that because he gently places his hand on my flushed cheek and attacks me with a gaze that makes my heart thump.
“I hate seeing you sick the most.”
My cheek, which had been throbbing, felt numb now. My heart was beating so fast, I wondered if it was hurting. My face grew redder and redder, and I locked eyes with Kim Taehyung.
I was embarrassed. Whether my cheeks were swollen or not, I was so excited for Kim Taehyung that it didn't matter anymore. Unfortunately, Kim Taehyung noticed the change in me so well. He chuckled, as if he was dumbfounded.
“I wonder if my girlfriend was excited during this time?”
“… Don’t be annoying. It’s stranger not to be excited by a face like that.”
“You must be foolish. Come here and get some ice packs.”
“Oh, I don’t like it…”
"Do it anyway."
Honestly, it was a bit unfortunate, but that's Kim Taehyung's charm, so there was nothing I could do about it. I really liked that kind of Kim Taehyung, and the us we are today.
Everyone. This Tokbing taste is. An old-fashioned, unbearable feeling + a tingling sensation that makes you want to vomit. Please get over it well. As for me, while using this... not only did I lose a finger, I also died. Break it.
