Battle Royal (Block B Zico) Slow

Chapter:22

Ana's POV

"Unnie! Wake Up!"

I jolted awake when I heard Nina scream. She was standing in front of my bed with her school uniform on. The buttons on her shirt were in the wrong holes and her black and white checkered bow was lopsided. She wore black tights but hadn't put her black and white checkered skirt on yet.

"What are you doing?" I asked still half asleep.

Looking at her confused I glance at the clock and see that it is 8:37. Gasping, I jump off the bed and run around the room trying to get dressed. Nina started school in less then 20 minutes and my shift was in less then 30.

"Nina put your skirt on. And fix your shirt!" I said as ran to the bathroom to freshen up and brush my teeth. When I came back to the room her shirt was now buttoned correctly, neatly tucked into her skirt and her bow wasn't lopsided anymore. I quickly fashioned her hair into a loose fishtail braid and then grabbed my bag along with Ninas backpack and my car keys.

I quickly went to the kitchen and grabbed Nina a granola bar. Tossing it to her she catches it and follows me to the front door. We slip on our shoes and sweaters then race down hall and into the elevator that someone was just coming out of.

"Why didn't you wake me up earlier?" I asked Nina who was in the back seat of my car eating the granola bar. She shrugged her shoulders and took another bite. "Looks like we made it in time." I sighed in relief as I pulled up to a very prestigious looking elementary school. It had very high shrubs that obscured the view of the playground just behind them. In front of the shrubs were fences that were just as high and a gate in the middle that had a large S and E on either gate door.

After parking I step out and walk to the other side of the car where Nina was opening the door. Holding the straps of her backpack she looks up at the building in front of her.

"I'll be here to pick you up after school. Okay?" She nodded, starting towards the front doors she looks back and gives me a nervous smile. I give her a quick wave and watched her disappear into the building. Jumping back into my car I make a u-turn and head to the café.

Jihoon's POV

Sitting in my kitchen eating breakfast my phone starts to ring. I look at the caller I.D to see that my father is calling. Answering I hold the phone to my ear.

"Appa?"

"How are you Jihoon?" His brute voice said over the phone.

"I-I'm fine." I stuttered. He sounded upset and I knew he was going to scold me. Even though he is a very nice and caring person, he can be blunt at times as well. And when he is upset he'll do his best to make sure you know it.

"I meant to call a few days ago but I got caught up with work."

"Is something wrong?" I asked shifting in my seat.

"Yes. Mind telling me exactly what happened to cause your 8 year old sister to runaway?" He asked the anger in his voice raising. It's been almost a week since I last saw Nina or Ana. It's also been almost a week since I last had a drop of alcohol. If I wanted to prove to Ana that I still loved her and I wasn't going to let Taewoon or Zico get in the way, I had to stop drinking.

"Ah she didn't runaway. She just wanted to visit Ana that's all." I lied.

"Yes, visit her in the middle of the night? And then she refuses to go back home to you?" He said in a furious tone.

"She's with Ana now, so she's safe."

"Nina is not her responsibility, she's yours. So what happened?"
