Meet My Love

06- Don't leave him

There were bruises all over Arin. Some were still red whereas some were purple which showed that they were slowly being healed.

Jisoo's eyes were still wide. She wasn't sure if this bruises are real or she is just seeing things. There were so many of them.

Arin slowly looked back at jisoo when she felt her shirt being moved. She knew that by this time, jisoo already saw her wounds and marks that she had tried so much to hide.

"J-jisoo I-" She was cut off by her.

"Who did this to you baby? There are so many of these. Does it still hurt? Are there more anywhere else?" She checked the other parts of her body. "Talk to me Arin. Are there more? Does it hurt?" She cupped her face.

Arin's eyes were slowly being teary. She hugged jisoo tightly sitting on her lap. "I-It h-hurts jisoo." She wailed.

Jisoo cautiously hugged her back. Her vision was becoming blurry watching her cupcake hurt.

She ran her fingers through Arin's hair to soothe the little girl. She repeatedly kissed her cheeks and forehead.

They held each other as if they never want the other to go.

After some times, only sobbing was heard.

Jisoo slowly pulled Arin out of her embrace but the little girl didn't want to leave her motherly arms this soon. Jisoo let her stay but decided to ask her about it.

"Arin? Baby? Who did this to you?" She asked moving her hands up and down of the small girl's head.

She kept silent not wanting to answer her. Jisoo understood that it was difficult for her. "You can trust me baby. I am always here for you."

Arin tightly hold jisoo before crying out loudly. "S-she always b-beats me jisoo. Even daddy c-can't do anything to s-save me. He tries a lot b-but still can't p-protect me from h-her." She hiccuped while clutching on jisoo's shirt.

Jisoo caressed her back to calm her down. "Who is she Arin?"

Arin sniffled. "M-mom."

Jisoo's eyes went wide  like a saucer. She knew that Saeron was fake but she didn't knew that she will abuse her own child. She felt pity on the little girl. How long has she been going through this hell?

"Since when did she start this Arin?" She quietly asked.

"Since t-two years." Jisoo's heart crashed listening her answer. This poor girl has been suffering since that long?

"I-I am s-scared jisoo.'' She faced her. Jisoo cupped her cheeks and wiped her tears using her thumb. "Don't worry princess. I am here with you. Nobody will hurt my baby now." She kissed her cheeks and placed Arin's head on her chest and fondle her back.

Arin felt comfortable in her embrace. Soon, her sobbing were vanished which meant that she slept. Jisoo delicately laid her in the sofa avoiding her bruises to rub against the rough fabric of the sofa.

She watched her cupcake sleeping peacefully. Now that she got to know the truth, she will never let her chicken suffer now.
