──── last chapter of act two !!

"Jukyung, gosh it's 4am. At least put your phone on dark mode"

"Oh sorry"

Confused I looked at the girl who was tugged into her sleeping bag properly, still not looking up but instead smiling cheekily at her cell phone.

"Did anything happen"

"Suho"

On to that remark, I sat up straight, leaning a bit more towards the older girl while she started to rant about what happened later this night. I really couldn't believe what happened, on the other hand I had to try my best not to squeak and wake everyone else up. Since Jukyung was explaining everything pretty detailed, it took us about half an hour to discuss the whole situation and then after wards making a quiet yet cheerful celebration while gesturing a lot with our hands.

She seemed so happy so I didn't really want to speak up on Seojun but as we almost decided to go to sleep, it just slipped out of my mouth and we spent fan girling over that until we could see the sun slowly rise, making us heading back to bed since we at least wanted to get a bit sleep until our departure later that day. Then we'd be back to school and everything would be as usual again.

I thought.

"Hey Gracie wait up!"

I turned around as Seojun ran to me, dragging his seemingly heavy luggage after him. Soojin already left a few minutes ago and I was about to go to Mr. Han to contact my brother since it was more than possible that he forgot about me and my battery died during our way back here.

Anyway by now the tall boy arrived and stopped next to me, probably wanting to be my accompany as long as I waited here since it seemed like he had nothing better to do than randomly chat about the trip. Surprisingly nothing in between us got much weird, sure, we were a bit awkward but we always were so that wasn't much of a change. Yet it seemed like we only got closer.

Smiling at my thoughts, my gaze slowly moved from Seojun's face on to the huge car which parked behind him. I thought it was Jakey for a moment but he didn't have a car like that so I just shook that thought off and focused back on to the seemingly happy Seojun. It was rare to see that boy smile but when he did, it was like my and basically everyone's heart could burst because of cuteness.

Still in a conversation with Seojun, I heard Mr Han talking in a way louder and furious tone than he'd usually do and Suah who was standing with Jukyung and Taehoon shout my name which made me look confused to her on to which she just pointed with her finger to my right where I turned at and my mouth drop.

The person Mr Han was basically yelling at was the woman I expected or at least didn't want to expect being here, my mother. Na Sejin always has been known for her lousy temper but I genuinely got scared as I saw her walking more and more near me with a look that I've never seen on her before. My mother wasn't exactly the person who seemed to be visually angry. The only expression you could see in a case where she was angry, was disappointment and nothing more. But right now she was seething with rage.

I couldn't move. I really couldn't. It was like that time Seojun told me to escape from the bullies. I wanted to run away and hide but my brain seemed to be frozen, not making me run away the tiniest bit. And that payed off as the first thing the woman did was slap me right on my right cheek.

My vision got blurry, not knowing if it was because of the pain the slap caused or my tears that fell down my face, but I could recognize someone holding my mother back from slapping me for another time. I identified that person as Jake before I let myself fall on the ground, or at least intended to do so until Seojun somehow got to catch me whilst kneeling down by himself to hold me. I heard the gasps around me and closed my eyes before taking a deep breath, trying to stay calm.

That didn't really work because before I could even open my eyes, someone pulled me up again - smacking Seojun's hands away from my arms. As i did open my eyes again, I looked into the face of my brother but it shocked me what I saw. Jake looked just like my mother, not angry but terribly disappointed and it made my heart hurt.

Before I realized butlers came next to me and took my stuff, they probably got hired by my mom, and one of them took me away from Jake while politely holding my arm to escort me to the big black car that seemed so unfamiliar. Still in complete trance, I heard how Suah and Jukyung ran after me and tried to talk to me, literally throwing question after question at me but the only thing I did before getting slightly pushed into the limousine was catching a glance at Han Seojun who was standing there confused, simply looking at me and I just stared back before the door closed and my mother entered not exchanging a word with me whilst Jake was throwing a riot about how dumb the whole trip action was. So they did find out.

And i really thought everything was perfect.

But as always, as soon as something seemed perfect it got destroyed immediately.
