Minho was eight at the time .
Just eight when he saw his mother hit his father until he fainted.
" Why did you hurt dad ? " he asked as his body shook with tears . His mother simply put her arms around him in an embrace.
" Sometimes you have to hurt the people you love so they'll stay "
Them why didn't he ?
Why did he dad leave right after that and never returned .
Minho never questioned it then .
And the words stuck to his head .
Sometimes we have to hurt the person we love so they'll stay
Sometimes we have to hurt the person we love so they'll stay
Sometimes we have to hurt the person we love so they'll stay
" Yah ! How dare you bump into me " he yelled turning to face the smaller boy who strangely resembled a squirrel.
A shaky apology escaped the boy's mouth.
Minho clenched his fist in anger but let the boy walk away .
He wanted to hit the boy, hit him for daring to make him angry but as fury filled up his body he remembered that the boy meant nothing to him and you only have to hurt the person you love so they'll stay .

The next time Minho saw him was in the library talking loudly with the school captain Chan.
Chan said his name a few times and it circulated in Minho's head for awhile .
Minho didn't know why he liked that name he just did .
Han Jisung.
Han Jisung .
Han Jisung.
He was happy everytime he said him except the day he walked into washroom to find him on the floor with tear stained cheeks surrounded by seniors who had to other way to assert their power except by bullying others.
" Leave him alone " Minho said in a low tone his eyes fixated on them in a creepy way .
The scattered away in fear and that's how it started , from that incident onwards Jisung was stuck to Minho like a leech.
" Minho hyung did you sleep well ? "
" Minho hyung did I mention that you're handsome "
" Minho hyung did you have lunch ?"
" Minho hyung can I come to the library with you "
Minho hyung this , Minho hyung that .
Minho doesn't exactly know how or when but he slowly started liking it .
He had never recieved any sort of adoration or attention from anyone and maybe Jisung was a little over the top but he didn't mind .
-
" I think I have a crush on Tyler "
Minho's fists clenched, envy filling up his mind . Jisung proceeded to dreamily describe how attractive he thinks Tyler is whereas all Minho wanted to do was pull his hair back and slap him across the face because afterall sometimes you have to hurt the person you love so they'll stay .
Sometimes we have to hurt the person we love so they'll stay
So why did he did just sit there with a fake smile pretending that he was listening.
