Perfect World

Chapter 16

Chaeyoung POV

Its getting a little late and now my dad would probably want me home by now. Again, not like he cared. It now 4:00 pm, driving out here definitely was worth to seeing all this.

"Ready to go?" She asked.

I nodded. Mina then dropped me back off at home and she departed. I didn't see my dad car, probably he wasn't at home. But I don't know. I'm confused why I even still call him dad when he definitely didn't act like one. I guess I just have a small amount of hope maybe someday, the old him will come back one day. The same dad I used to have before he walked away from our life. The old one that will protect me from the world he's supposed to, comfort me, maybe even read me a story until I fall asleep. I did take that if he offered it. But yeah fucking right, in my dreams.

I sigh seeing the house, mentally and physically preparing myself for whatever will happen today. I start walking inside slowly, entering the house as something pulls me by my hair. Dad, not surprising. He seems more drunk than usual today, great. Its never good when he's this drunk. I'm thrown to the floor.

"Where the hell have you been whore?!" He yelled angrily.

Shit! I didn't responded.

"I'm asking you! Where the hell have you been, huh?" He yelled.

I didn't responded. Just as I didn't answer, I felt him kick me in the stomach. Great! I just had just a little recover, and then here we go again.

"Now, get your ass up. Stop disrespecting your dad! Make me a dinner you idiot!" He said hatefully.

I nodded and stand up quickly. I wincing in pain but ignore it. I know if I show how hurt I am, I will get even more. As I finish making a dinner, he walked to the counter and sit there. I just stand there froze. Then, suddenly I heard a glass shattered making me flinched. Before I could look what happen, I felt a sharp pain in my stomach. He starts kicking me again. Then, he pulls me up by my hair pushing me against the wall and puts his hand around my throat. Is this finally the part where he kills me? Its sad to think about it, but I will finally be gone, out of this shit life, finally seeing my mom. Just as I'm about to pass out, he loosened his grip around my throat enough to breath. Damn it! Its not the part where I die, I guess.

"This is shit you call a dinner? Fuck you!" He said.

He punched me one last time in the stomach where its already bruised enough. One thing about my dad, he would never punch or hit me at the face. Maybe a few slapped but never leave a mark. He knows if he do that, definitely people would suspicion.

"Now, get out from my face!" He yelled.

I walk up stairs to my room and lock the door. I sit down on my bed. I sigh. I get up and go to the bathroom to check my bruises. New ones forming on my stomach. I ripped out the bandages Mina's mom done for me early and wrapped a new one around my ribs. Its really all you can do. I hopped in my bed, realising I still have Mina sweater. I put on the sweater and lay down on my bed with the scent on the sweater flourished it making me devour the warmth and cuddles within the sheet. I'm totally tired plus terrified. What's going to happen tomorrow? I mean, Momo practically hates me and she's already tried going after me once. I don't want socialise with Mina's group but who I'm kidding. Socialise with Mina, definitely I have to socialise with her group.

Waking up to this dreadful headache it was, Monday. I replayed what happened over the weekend and let out a loud groan. I have never had such socialising weekend. I looked at my phone and quickly realised I was running late. Shit! I quickly slipped on my black skinny jeans, a white sweatshirt and get my converse. I went to bathroom, checked my hair and face make sure I won't looked mess. I made my way to my car and didn't see my dad car. I pulled out of the garage and on my way to school. Crap! I'm so late. I rushed to my locker and I have not seen any signs of Mina, which isn't bad. No Mina, no socialising. School just started and I have to focus on my grades and scholarships. I already submit my application to JY Park and now I just have to wait for the letter.

As I grabbed my notebooks for the next class, I saw people giving me glances here and there. Is it me just feel that they were looking at me? Or someone else? The stares felt like shadows of Neverland, which is quite uncomfortable. So I made my way to my first class. I guess thing will be going back to the ways it used to be. I don't have any classes with Mina which is strange considering we both are in AP classes. I sat down in English, my first class of the day and I usually sit in the middle of the classroom near the back. Slowly the room started to fill up with more people and soon the lesson begin. The same old lesson, we have been learning since the beginning of junior year. A light knock came from the door and loud click came walking throughout the room.

"Name?" The teacher asked.

Oh, its just another student switching class. I didn't even bother to looking up.

"Hirai Momo." The student said.

Shit! I know this voice. I looked up and there she was, the person who probably hated me the most in the school.

Momo.

"Oh, fuck. No." I mumbled to myself.

Fuck.

She handed the pass towards the teacher and waited for a responded.

"Okay, Miss Hirai. Take a seat somewhere in the back." The teacher said politely.

She nodded and looked up, immediately saw my face. Oh god! I swear I see her smirk. My stomach dropped to the point where it felt sickening and I didn't want to be here. Her face then quickly scrunched in as if I was a huge bothersome to her. I sigh. I probably was. I gripped my jacket lightly feeling quite uncomfortable and she made her way to the back of the class. The click of her heels echoed throughout the class and each one made me shrink into into my seat. Its felt like hearing background sound from scary movie, making me goosebump. This girl will make my life a living hell.

Momo kept staring at me while she departed from the front of the room to her chair. We kept eye contact until my blind spot. I swear I felt a sweat broke on my forehead. It felt like her stares were tiny sun burns hitting me away. I felt a cold air behind me and a lavender scent slightly blowing through my hair, until I felt something hot against my ear.

"This class definitely will be fun. Isn't that right, Chaeyoung?" She whispered.

Oh shit! My shoulder sank and felt shiver run up through my spine. Then, the teacher start yelled to get student attention and the class begin. The feeling of Momo right on my shoulder felt like her eyes were on me the whole time like piercing daggers stabbing me. The whole period felt uneasy and sickening. The class finally ended and I didn't wait any minute, quickly rushed out of the classroom. I usually don't but I did. The feeling of fear was not as pleasing.
