KISS ME

"What the hell happened to you?" Kim Ji-min grimaced and pinched her nose as Lee Na-yeon stood at her door with an injured Kang Yu-Jin around her. It looked like Yu-Jin got attacked by Michael Meyers and then tossed into a landfill. 

"Can you let us in? This bitch is heavy," Na-yeon said with gritted teeth as Ji-min stepped aside to let them come in. The Lee girl supported the girl's weight as they slowly walked into the home. Hyo-ryeong, Min-ji and Hyeon-ju greeted them, all gasping at the sight of Yu-jin and probably her appearance as well. "She got jumped or something, I found her hand sticking out of a dumpster in an alleyway. It was crazy."

Ji-min helped Na-yeon place Yu-Jin on a plastic chair with armrests, "I'll get the first aid kit. Jesus, Na-yeon, what the fuck happened to her?"

"I have no idea, she got jumped, I think," Na-yeon crossed her arms as she watched Yu-jin's cat eyes flutter open again. "Finally, she's fucking awake again."

"Shut up, Na-yeon," Yu-jin groaned and pushed herself up from the chair, but Ji-min pushed her back down. "What the-- Ji-min?"

"Hi," The Kim girl said sheepishly as she pushed her back down into the chair by her arms. She then walked away to find the first aid kit. Na-yeon examined the Kang girl as she sat on one of the armchairs in Ji-min's living room. Her head was tilted back against the wall as she breathed heavily.

"Are you okay, Yu-Jin?" Hyo-ryeong questioned softly as she got up to grab an ice pack for her. She handed it to the Kang girl, who gave her a small smile before taking the pack from the girl's hand and placing it against her stomach. The Seo girl immediately grimaced at the cut on Yu-Jin's toned stomach, turning to yell at Ji-min as she came from the hallway. "Yah, hurry up!"

"I'm literally here!" Ji-min yelled back as she pulled up a chair for her to sit on, opening up the first aid kit. "Hyeon-ju, your mom's a nurse right?" The girl nodded and walked over to the area they were in, and Na-yeon also found herself walking there as well.

"Good god, Yu-Jin, who did this?" Hyeon-ju breathed out as she looked at one of the cuts.

"None of your business," Yu-Jin winced as she moved the ice pack to her face, where there was a cut on her cheek. Na-yeon pushed her head, the girl groaning. "What the fuck?"

"Don't say it's none of our business. You'd be dead if I didn't see your hand sticking out of the dumpster," Na-yeon snapped at her, pushing her head again. Yu-Jin grabbed her finger and pushed her hand away. "Tell us."

"Maybe we should clean her wounds first before stitching up the big cut on her stomach," Hyeon-ju was in her own little medical world, unintentionally startling the others in the room. Min-ji stared at her with slight admiration. "What? I'm thinking." The girl straightened. "I'll go to the department store down the street to get stitches and more bandages. Min-ji, Hyo-ryeong, come with?"

The two girls nodded, getting up and putting on their coats before leaving the remaining three in the apartment. "If it's okay, I can clean your wounds?" Ji-min asked the Kang politely and, to Na-yeon's surprise, she glanced at her. Ji-min followed the look.
