Y/N POV

AFTER 2 DAYS

AT BUSAN RAILWAY STATION

Once I stepped out of the train I was met with a cold breeze hitting hard on my face. I gritted my teeth as shivers ran down my spine, "I fucking hate winters. Why are winters so cold?" I said while looking at my best friend who was rubbing her palms.

"I don't know why you spit nonsense when you feel cold." She said and gripped the handle of her luggage before rolling it leaving me behind.

I stretched my arms and jogged to her, intertwining our fingers as if we are couples. Her parents once thought we are couples but who knows we are whipped for seven men of Korea.

The taxi stopped at a three-star hotel. The driver took our luggage from the trunk and bowed to us before getting back inside his taxi.

We asked for a single room, the receptionist took one key from the key holder behind him while staring at me. I opened my hand to take the key but he dropped the key near my feet intentionally.

"I'm so sorry ma'am! Let me pick it up for you." He said running from behind his crappy counter.

The receptionist bends down to pick the keys, I looked away. My eyes widened when I felt something gliding up from my thighs. His fingers made a small circle on my thighs, my mind went blank as I wasn't able to process a thing.

I was being harassed, again?!?

Suddenly Song Yi grabbed the collar of that receptionist and made him stand straight. She punched him hard on his face making him stumble and fall down.

"You fucking pervert! Should I tell your boss what you were doing" she spitted out while clenching her jaw. "Or may I give what you deserve?"

"I'm so sorry ma'am. I-it was my fault th-"

"Of course it's your fault, you filthy bastard." She yelled at him.

"Y/N you alright?" she turned to me and saw a pool of tears forming in my eyes. Everything was blurred in front of me as if I'm becoming blind. Next moment I could feel being dragged somewhere. I looked to my other side and saw Song Yi walking with me in a corridor, her arm wrapped around my waist. She stopped in front of a wooden door and pushed the key inside the keyhole and opened the door.

"Sit here, I'm bringing water," she said making me sit on the bed. Tears were still forming in my eyes, ready to drop any moment. I was numb, hands and legs trembling.

Just a small unfamiliar touch can do this much harm to me. It's not because I'm sensitive, no I'm not. Then?

Well, my past made me like this!

"Hey Y/N?" Song Yi shook me.

"H-huh?" tears rolled down from my left eye.

"You are safe now babes." She said wiping my tears. "That son of a bitch got what he deserves but if you want I can complain to-"

"No, it's a-alright! Thanks for what you did earlier." I said smiling.

She smiled back and handed me the glass of water, I took it and started drinking while she was patting my head slowly. "Go change your dress into pajamas and then let's take a rest, okay?" I nodded and headed to the washroom.

What does she mean by 'again'? What was her past? I hope it isn't bad but it already has happened.
