𝐘.𝐉.

It was quiet for a long time while Chan calmed Sook. I couldn't really judge the others, but I was a bit confused by everything.

There were probably some things why the two behave this way and you would only understand it after you have been informed.

"Can you maybe... enlighten me?" I asked softly to the group. All eyes were on me and Sook broke away from the hug to turn to me.

"Your hair has been cut, classmates insult you and we are sitting in front of your mother's grave" I continued.

"I have to admit I was a bit surprised myself to see you together at the beginning" Minho admitted and looked at me, I gave him a look to show that he should continue.

"Sook has been bullied by Chan for a few years but now... cuddle in front of my eyes" Minho grinned stupidly and looked at the couple.

"It's a bit of a long story" Chan muttered and grinned slightly. "I'm surprised myself" Sook replied only.

She looked tired after crying and just kept her eyes open. Chan still had his hand on Sook's back and ran it down her back.

"Then cut it short and start at the beginning" Hyunjin grinned as he leaned back. Chan sighed and looked at Sook, who probably nodded as permission for him to tell.

"After another prank on Sook, I met her under the rain, she felt bad, which is why I promised her I would do everything for the better... Sook lived in a old apartment in a abonden area for almost a year, which is why I decided her to move in with us, her father had left the two of them and Sook's mother had committed suicide not long ago... Sook visits this grave regularly and I help Sook to get through the day" he told us everything with a sad expression.

The boys nodded understandably while I just stupidly looked at Sook, she went through a lot. I looked at the grave and compared the day of death to the birthday, and I noticed one thing that made me feel guilty.

It was only a few days after Sook's mother's death that we cut her hair and beat her up. I didn't do anything because I don't dare to hurt someone but to have stood there makes me regret having been there.

My eyes filled with tears because I couldn't cope with the thought in my head, Sook was suffering so much and we made it worse at one point.

Before I knew it a hand was on my back and made circles, so I looked confusedly at Seungmin who smiled softly "Why are you crying?" he asked me.

I looked back at the grave, everyone followed my gaze. I quickly wiped a tear on my cheek before starting to speak. "We beat up Sook a few days after she died" I said quietly.

I heard someone gasp quietly and when I turned my head again they all looked shocked. I looked at Sook who just looked at the grave empty.

"Yes, you're right... it was a hard night" Sook mumbled very quietly, hoping that no one would hear her.

"You probably didn't have it easy" Felix mumbled whereupon Sook nodded with a slight smile "It was tough but... it wasn't really anything new for me either".

Hearing these words broke my heart, I wanted to go to her and hug her, but I don't know if she would feel comfortable if I hug her.

"Why did she commit suicide?" Minho asked softly whereupon he was hit by Changbin, Minho sometimes really didn't know the limit.

"We lived very bad and she became an alcoholic... at some point we were so short of money that she decided to end everything" Sook answered Minho's question very calmly.
