TRUE BEAUTY (HAN SEOJUN) ( ON HOLD )

CHAPTER - 09

I looked at the dean shocked.

'' Sir, that wasn't right. '' 

'' What wasn't right ? '' The dean asked confused.

'' You bringing up his mother. '' I looked at him in the eye. '' That was so low of you. ''

The dean glared at me, and stood in front of me.

'' You are talking like this. '' He spoke. '' Don't think, we don't know about your doings. '' I looked at him confused. '' Mrs Lee called me to say to look out for you, so you don't get in trouble. '' He scoffed. '' But look at you. This was not the only thing she told me.''

'' She told me how much of a brat you are. '' He said while poking my shoulder with his stick. '' Just because you are rich that doesn't mean you rule the school, you disrespectful kid! '' He said in loud voice.

I felt my eyes sting. It seemed that I was portrayed as a bad person in everyone's eye. Surely, he wasn't the only one who was fed by these lies. My vision blurred but I didn't let my tears escape my eyes.

'' This is not even the half of it, from what she told me. You...'' He was interrupted by Mr Han.

'' Sir. Please stop it. '' He requested.

The vice principal came and told Suho  to go back cause of the math competition. Suho looked at me one last time before leaving. The vice principal shouted at Seojun and went out. The dean started shouting at us again but was stopped by Mr Han.

He told us to go and I immediately left after bowing to Mr Han. The tears finally escaped my eyes and I ran to the terrace, not wanting to face anyone.

I sat on my knees and a sob escaped my lips. Even after I left, they somehow still come back. I felt a hand on my shoulder and looked back to see Seojun. He kneeled down in front of me and held my hands.

'' Why are you here ? You also think of me as a brat and disrespectful girl, right ? '' I asked him crying. '' You also believed what the dean said ? Who wouldn't believe the words of Lee Hyemi. '' I sniffed.

'' But it's okay. Even when no one believes me it's fine. Suho will. I know he's always with me. He believes, and that's enough for me. '' I took a deep breathe. '' His trust is enough for me. ''

He held my cheeks and wiped my tears. '' I also believe you. '' He said

'' Really ? '' He nodded making me smile. He eyes held sincerity.

'' Now stop crying. You look ugly. '' I look at him with wide eyed.

I hit his arm and he chuckled. '' Now go back to class, okay ? '' 

'' Okay. '' I replied .

I went back to class as he went to the other direction.

The boys were cleaning the auditorium, as a part of punishment. It was more like Suho was cleaning and the rest were goofing around. Han Seojun was sitting idle, lost in his thoughts. The girl was excused from the punishment cause of Suho, so she was home.

Sitting there his mind was filled with the words, Misun said at the terrace.

' Even if no one believes me, it's fine. Suho will.
