Youth [HaJeongWoo FF]

Chapter 2

Haruto POV

Scared was an understatement on how I felt right now. Kids were crying from left and right. I don't know why I'm here and how long I've been here. I hate this place, its dark and cold, I barely can see anything.

"What are they going to do to us?" A boy whispered to me.

"Ssh.. They're going to take you if you make a noise." Whispered a girl.

"They are not here right now, they won't know we're talking." Replied the boy.

I stayed silent. I don't know them. I don't want to be here. I want to go home.

"Just shut up or else-" The girl voice was cut off by the sound of a door being opened.

The lights behind the door blinded my eyes and a big guy appeared from it. I can't see his face as the lights hit him on his back side. Those who cry suddenly stopped crying and those who looks calm shrieking as the guy starts walking towards my direction.

The guy stopped at the previous girl and start talking. "Well well, what do we have here." His voice was high, and the way he talk sounds cruel. I hide my face on my knees.

"Please don't hurt me.. please.." I heard the girl begging and the next thing I heard was the girl starts screaming. It was loud at first but gradually disappeared. The door opened once more and he left the room, the girl was dragged behind him.

It was quiet for I don't know how long and the next thing I knew, the same girl being shoved to the damp floor right in front of me.

The girl stared at me with wide blank eyes. Tears were all over her face with what looks like blood smeared on her lips. Her mouth mumbled something without any noise coming from it. I tried to read her mouth. 'Run'. That's what I caught before that guy stood in front of me. I felt shivered on my spine. He stretched out his hand towards me.

Please don't take me.. I'm scared.. Don't take me.. Don't touch me..

"DON'T TOUCH ME!" I shouted. My body jolted on the bed. I was panting, with my clothes drenched in sweats.

I flinched from a sudden touch on my shoulder only to realize it was JeongWoo. "Uhh.. Haruto are you okay?" He asked with hoarse voice.

I looked around to check where I'm at and sighed in relief when I saw the familiar looks of my bedroom. JeongWoo was sitting flat on the bed next to me and Lyn was sleeping on my other side.

"Bad dream again?" Asked JeongWoo. I nodded. He brushed my back in circle motion and yawned. "Let's go back to sleep." He said.

JeongWoo gently pushed my shoulder to bed. He scooted closer and placed his arm above my torso. "Our poor Ruto. You're safe, you're not in that place." He whispered as he caress my head with his other hand. It was comforting to be around him like this and I fell asleep soon after.

That damn dream I had from when I got kidnapped when I was seven kept coming every now and then. At first such dream would bother me a lot. I would scream as if I lost my sanity. Until I'm no longer give a shit about it although I can't avoid to woke up in the middle of the night.

Thanks to that shitty dreams, I woke up feeling tired and sleep deprived. Okay, honestly it wasn't just because of that dream but also loud noises coming from outside my room, none other than Lyn and JeongWoo bickering at each other.

I groaned and reach out for my phone under my pillow. It was 7AM. What the fuck they're fighting for early on Saturday. I sat up and pushed myself out of the bed. I was on autopilot mode as I went through the motions of my morning routines in the bathroom and walk to the kitchen.
