Chapter 15 Memories of the past (4)

Gu Jun Pyo was unhappy that he still hasn't found his Angel even after searching for over four weeks. He was walking along the abandoned building near his private spot when he heard some boys talking about scaring a girl. Since that wasn't something new to him as he would always order his boys to scare some newbies. Or some students who were trying to be hard and wouldn't play by his rules. He would always deal with them in a similar way, he would scare them to submission.

As the school's Don, he could do whatever he likes to the students and as the son of the owner of the school the teachers would just overrule whatever report that comes to them concerning him. This made the students more fearful of him. No one wanted to get into his bad book.

Hence, he calls himself King

As the king of his school and also the Don, he would always terrorize the newbies and scare them to bones and whoever gets a red card from him gets tortured and bullied by the whole school and the teachers would do nothing about it as they were scared of losing their jobs.

Gu Jun Pyo's cousin Lee Min Ho was also a member of the King's clique. His relation with Gu Jun Pyo made him even more arrogant, because he believes that he is untouchable.

Lee Min Ho was an only child who had always got what he wanted and no one has ever rejected him, instead it's the other way round. But when Yan Su Min rejected and even had the guts to slap him, something in him snapped at that moment. He felt his blood boil. Because no one has ever raised a hand on him, not even his parents.

His fury was like the depth of hell and his underlings knew that when his rage is at eruption level nothing could stop him. His ego couldn't take it that a lowly scholarship student like Su Min could get so much into his nerves. Out of fury he issued a double red card in her name and pasted it on the noticeboard, making her the target of every bully in the school.

However, due to the search for the Mysterious Cinderella, the attention of the bullies drifted away from Su Min and she thought she could take a breather before she unknowingly walked into the devil's lair. Thankfully she was saved. If it wasn't for the intervention of the kind soul that saved her, she couldn't imagine what would have happened to her.

Gu Jun Pyo had followed the boys who were discussing scaring a girl in hope of getting a diversion from his distorted thoughts. It's been a while since he had hunted and he thought to watch the fun.

He saw a girl walking quietly towards a certain direction but stopped abruptly at the sound of whistling made by one of the boys, the boy immediately hid himself behind a tree. Su Min suddenly started walking towards the direction of the sound as if in trance. Jun Pyo watched as the boys followed her and as they quickly hid away like they weren't there. That place was their turf, so they knew every hidden spot in that place, which was why they had lured the girl there.

He watched the girl get scared and fastened her steps, she looked around and realization seemed to finally dawn on her on how far away she'd come. she ran in the opposite direction and fell. Her specs came off and she raised her head to see if there was anyone following her, before she bent to pick her specs. And at that moment Jun Pyo saw her face.

He gaped at her. He tapped his cheek to make sure he wasn't hallucinating. He closed his eyes tightly to see if she would still be there when he opened his eyes. He opened his eyes and she was indeed there.

"She didn't disappear! She is really here!

"I found my angel!

"How could this be? Jun Pyo thought.

I searched everywhere for her, only to find her here? under this circumstance? He thought of what to do in order not to scare her away.

He pulled the hood of his sweater over his head and covered his face partially with a surgical mask.

He moved swiftly like a wind as he saw the boys were closing in on her. He grabbed her and put his palm over her mouth to stop her from screaming. She struggled and tried to free herself from his hold. He bent and whispered into her ear. "You are safe now."

Su Min wanted to turn around to look at him but he prevented her from doing so. Then, he heard her muffled words. "Who are you?"

Jun Pyo smiled and he quickly replied, "I'm the one who has been searching for you and now that I finally found you, I'm never letting go.

He took in her scent and smiled to himself. She smells like lavender and peach. Such a heavenly scent. He felt intoxicated by her scent. So, he closed his eyes and savored the sweet scent of his Angel.

Jun Pyo thought she was a first-year student because he had never seen her anywhere around the school before that day. So, he led to the freshman's building through some secret route known to him alone.

standing in front of the building he let go of her and whispered again, "You can go to your class now. It's safe."

Jun Pyo immediately hid somewhere to watch her. Then, he noticed that she didn't go into the building and instead she turned and left the place. "Where is she going again? Gu Jun Pyo thought to himself. He followed her and he saw her entering the same building where his own was located. He thought she was probably going to see someone in there, maybe her sister or brother. He followed her stealthily and saw her enter the 11th grade class the one opposite his. His jaw dropped and he couldn't help but tap his forehead frustratingly.

So, she had been so close to me all this while and I had searched everywhere for her?

So, she was by my side all this while yet, I didn't notice?

Gu Jun Pyo was so happy, he felt like flying. He was elated that he finally found his Angel. Even though she was well hidden, he still found her.
