Chapter 5: The first time

Once she opened her eyes she was welcomed by Lisa's angelic sleeping figure. Her friend had soft features which did not match her personality. Lisa was one of the girls who could lure any man into their trap and whip him around their fingers. Once Jennie was done observing her friend's beautiful face she turned around, now facing the rising sun. The big windows of her room showed a beautiful orange and pink colored sky. She was determined to do something productive today instead of sitting in a wheel chair; and after yesterday's physical therapy she felt much better. She had planned to improve her fighting skills since she was convinced that she'd have to be stronger to fight the person who destroyed her life. Jennie tried her best to stand up without trembling and took a few cautious steps forward, surprisingly she could walk. It was not perfect and lacked stability but Jennie was relieved she could at least walk a bit. Her slow steps halted in front of the bathroom mirror. When she looked at her reflection, a pale face and black circles under her eyes welcomed her. No make up and no smile. Jennie tried to ignore all the pain and decided to take a shower to freshen up. She stripped out of her clothes and got into the shower carefully, with great difficulty of trying not to trip on the wet floor. After 20 minutes she came out of the bathroom, wrapping a towel around her petit figure and walked shakily towards the nightstand beside her bed. The standing under the shower for 20 minutes had affected her badly and the pain she was feeling was nearly unbearable. She opened the drawer and pulled out some painkillers. Jennie gulped these down even though she knew they were not good for her health. Then she walked into her dressing room with only one thought on her mind 'Work out.'
She walked towards the sports section and took out a black sports bra and her sport leggings with black panties. She slipped into these and headed downstairs. This time her steps were steady and she didn't feel any pain. The painkillers had spread their effect through her body and numbed her nerves. Upon arriving at the kitchen she quickly took an apple and bit into it. It was true that she didn't want to waste her time more than necessarily but she knew if she didn't eat she would eventually fall sick and won't be able to do anything. And finally her legs hurried her forward, towards their gym.

He hadn't slept one minute of the night and felt really tired. His instincts refused to let him sleep in peace because his body had to get used to the new environment. He was on guard the whole night and didn't feel safe for some reason. Jimin stood up and walked towards the big windows in the room. The sky was partly dark but he knew soon the sun would rise and the calm and peaceful night would be enveloped by the bright light. No matter how much he liked the darkness he was still eager to see the sunrise, since he's never seen it before. The cell in Black Lotus (Entertainment Camp) he was kept in didn't have any windows, just a small lamp to light up the room. They always closed his door and locked him into there, always beaten up and hungry. His eyes had the honor to see the lights only when taken out to fight but most of the times the rich clients came at evenings.

Jimin pulled a chair and sat down. He wanted to appreciate the beautiful sight that was about to occur. With his mind full of thoughts he doubted he could concentrate and forget everything for a second. But then he saw how slowly rays of sunshine shone through his room and the sky changed its colors to orange, pink and purple. Oh, how he wished he'd seen this earlier. There was nothing as beautiful as this except for the girl he had met a few days ago, he wouldn't admit that out loud though. Right now he was feeling free and unbothered. His mind had calmed down the second he saw the heavenly scene in front of him. Suddenly he could feel something trying to rise in him. It was strange but familiar. He feared this moment even more than death but this thing in him was stronger than he had thought and dominated over his mind. All the feelings he had shoved to the back of his heart and put a lock on started to claw back to the surface of his heart. He had tried to prevent this from happening for so many years. Jimin's eyes stung with tears and he didn't even know why but the tears just flowed down like a waterfall. His face was straight and void of feelings but he had quickly managed to gather his strength together and wipe his tears away harshly. Why would he suddenly act like a baby and cry? This was not him. Once the blur caused by his tears subsided, he could see that the sun was now completely out and smiled at him apologetically, like it asked of his forgiveness. Yes the world had done him wrong and nobody could ever heal him or make the pain go away. He had accepted his harsh fate and was already prepared for pain for the rest of his life.
