A Demon's Tale

{18}

3rd June, 2014.

"Yah, give it back!"

Minseo chased her bag which was thrown back and forth at different girls.

She was crying and she was badly hurt mentally and physically by these three girls who were bullying her for the past weeks.

She never told Renjun about it nor Jaemin. But he seemed to know about it after she saw him scolding Soojin who was confessing and tried to kiss him yesterday.

"I said give it back, Yoon Soojin!"

The brown haired girl was laughing with her friends then threw the pink bag on the ground before stepping on it.

"You're brave now, huh?!"

Minseo gasped and tried to push her, but Soojin was fast to take action.

"Arrggh..."

She fell on the ground and hit her back. Soojin crouched down while smirking after punching the weak girl.

"Yah, Huang Minseo. You're the reason Jaemin hates me now... so that's why i'm punishing you. Do you get it?!"

She smacked her head as she whined in pain with tears in her sparkling eyes. She eyed the tall figure standing up and threw her bag beside her.

"Bye, dumbass! Let's go, girls!"with that, she went away leaving the crying girl alone.

Minseo climbed the stairs to somewhere further and ended up standing in the middle of the tall building's roof. She sighed and walked forward, staring at the beautiful view below her.

She was crying again, but this time it was because of happiness. If she jump, it will be over, right? She thought. But it was the other way at the same time.

If she die, who would take care of her family? Renjun needs her to take care of their sick mother. And then she thought again. Wasn't she the one who's meddling in their life?

Like Soojin told her.

She was making Renjun's life more harder than before. After her father died. He works until late night to take care of her and her mother, would it be gone if she die?

She looked below again and took a deep breath.

Jaemin was rushing to the roof after asking some of his friends about Minseo's presence. He ended up seeing Minseo with her arms stretching out on the roof.

"Huang Minseo!"

He really, really hoped that it wasn't what it was thinking when Minseo turned to him but her back was touching the railing on the roof.

"W-what are you doing? Minseo! Get down and listen to me!"

Minseo smiled with tears streaming down her face. She shook her head. "Nana... i want to say sorry. If i did anything wrong to you."

Jaemin was freezing in the same spot with shaking hands.

"Renjun too... say that i love him so much and i was grateful to have a brother like him..."

"Stop! And get down! Minseo, you will fall! Come here!"his sobs turned into a worrying cry for her.

The wind was blowing her soft hair, making her look more beautiful. Then he thought; why do people only appreciate things when they're gone?

Minseo shook her head again. And what hurts him more, was that she was still smiling despite the deep pain in her heart.

"Goodbye, world..."

She whispered before throwing her head and fell backwards, still with a happy smile on her face.

"NOOOO!!!"

Renjun was walking with his friends after the school ended and walked near the school building to the bus stop. But he waited in the middle of the path to wait for his sister.

Until he heard a few shoutings coming from the top of the roof. He was confused, but he shrugged it off while turning his back.

Until he felt thick liquids splattering on his back with a loud thud as he turned to the sound and found a girl lying on the floor with pools of blood.

People were screaming and running around like maniacs, but he just stayed there, expressionless. It took a bit longer for him to realize that it was his own sister.

His breath hitched as he knelt on the ground with widened eyes before screaming loudly.

"Minseo! Minseo!!!!"

He was messing with his black hair while trembling in fear, crying and screaming out loud.

At the same time on the roof, Jaemin was kneeling down. He didn't know what to do anymore... so he just sat there. As time passes by, he let out a few tears with soft sobs.

"No... Minseo..."

"You did a big mistake, dude."

He noticed black wings flying at him and landed right in front of him. "What are you going to do now?" The demon asked, with a resting bitch face.

"Mark... help me. For one last time."he pleaded and cried while hanging his head low. "Please..."

Mark sighed and flew down at the trembling boy who watched his sister died in front of his own eyes.

He landed in front of him and covered the dead body from his sight. With a flash of red in his eyes, Renjun closed his eyes and fell on the ground.

"Forget everything about today. I will let you stay alive."
