Our Promise ~ 2yeon

15.

I woke up to empty space surrounding me and I didn't know where I was. Jeongyeon wasn't next to me and I bolted upright. Oh yes. I was at my house.

I sat on my phone for a while and texted Jeongyeon.

Me:
You up?

Jeongie✨:
Yep your mum makes some
amazing pancakes

I ran into the living room and laughed as my mum, Jeongyeon and Irene sat eating pancakes without me.

"Don't worry idiot yours are in the microwave." Irene said through her sticky mouthful of syrup soaked pancakes.

"Ewwww gross!" I said back, "I didn't need to see your pancakes in your mouth."

~~

"I'm off to work bye everyone" Irene shouted as she locked the door.

"Bye Irene!" My mum and Jeongyeon shouted back on unison.

"Bye-rene!" I replied, trying not to laugh.

Irene:
I heard that

~~

I was sitting at my desk completing work when my mum came in and sat on my bed.

"Nayeon. Don't you think you should go back to school soon?"

"Mum I'd love to but don't you think it's too soon?"

"Next week?"

"I'll think about it."

I carried on with my work.

~~

2 weeks passed and it reached my first day back to school.

My mum had gone back home and Irene had the day off of work.

"I'll be waiting at the door when you come back lovie" Jeongyeon said to me, a grin spreading across her face.

"Yeah I won't be doing that but have a good day I guess." Irene said with a disgusted look.

I giggled and and walked out the door to the bus stop.

I only waited a few minutes for the bus and sat on a seat at the back, mentally preparing myself for the day to come.

My head was buried in my phone when I heard a familiar voice gasp. I looked up to see Sana making her way towards me.

"Nayeon!! You're back!" She said as she sat down next to me.

"Sana! I've missed you!"

We hugged for a moment and caught up on the past few weeks.

"Ah Nayeonnie you don't need to feel guilty. It's not you're fault and Jeongyeon is ok now!"

"Are you sure?" I asked, swallowing tears.

"Of course I am. Now it's time to get off this is our stop."

~~

I walked through the front door at the end of the day and Jeongyeon was right, she was waiting at the door for me.

I ran into her arms and gave her a massive hug.

"How was your day darling?" She said in my ear.

"It was ok." I trailed off.

Before I knew it, I burst into tears on her shoulder.

"What happened?" She muttered, squeezing me tighter.

"They kept asking questions and- and they laughed at me and they- they called me names and pushed me over and stole my stuff and everything." I sobbed.

"Oh honey. You don't deserve this. Come over here to the sofa and sit with me" she began, "I'll pick you up."

She picked me up and cradled me like a baby which caused me to giggle through the tears.

She places me down and says "So how should I cheer you up?"

"Come to the bar with me. There's a karaoke night."

"Ok fine. But you know I can't sing very well."

I dragged her to put her shoes on and we ran down the road to the bar.
