"Be careful," Mireu said out of the blue and Heechul needed time to process what she said.
She frowned, "What?"
"Be careful about him, you might end up falling in love with him." She said nonchalantly and yelped in pain when Heechul pinched her arm.
"To hate him more is the biggest possibility. Bye, see you tomorrow at school, Mireu!" Heechul opened the front door and saw a few unfamiliar shoes, it's just one thing, her auntie's friend came again for playing cards and gambling.
She quietly made her way to her bedroom on the second floor and suddenly, she heard her auntie talking about the money she kept in her room. She's walked faster and locked her bedroom door before opening her cupboard only to find her money jar empty. The money's supposedly for buying the book Siwon had bought earlier. She had been saving her money for buying the book since a few months ago because it's quite expensive and her salary wasn't only for that, half of it goes to the bank for her university fund and the other half to her drunkard and gambler auntie.
Tears trickled down her flawless cheek after so many years. She never cried except when her parents died five years ago. Now she's crying only because she couldn't buy the book. But the main reason would be that she really couldn't tolerate her auntie anymore and she really look forward to her graduation so she can go far away from her. She cried until her eyes hurt and she slept on the floor in exhaustion.

Groggily she picked up her phone with hoarse voice, a deep voice was heard on other line and she immediately recognized the owner of it. "Don't be late. I'm waiting at gate." Heechul turned her phone off, got up and walked to the bathroom.

Siwon stared at his phone although he won't call anyone else after Heechul. He just noticed something different on Heechul's voice but he chose to ignore it. He grabbed his backpack, heading to the dining room.

"Where's my money, bitch?" What she gets every morning wasn't sweet good morning but harsh word and she was grew accustomed to it.
"I don't have money. You took my savings last night, hag!" Spat Heechul angrily and she got a hard slap on her right cheek. Heechul winced when she pull her hair.
"I want my money!" she growled lowly, reeking of alcohol. Heechul dug her bag and handed the last money she had.
After got the money, she released her grip on Heechul's hair, walked past her and entered her room. Heechul glanced at her wristwatch and realized that maybe today she will be late again. She start running to her school the minute she was in front of the house.
-
Siwon stood near gate, glancing at his wristwatch again. Five minutes before the gate closes and Heechul's still missing. Siwon sighed, inside his head, he's already planning a punishment for her. He ready closed the gate when Heechul come running and slipped her body entering gate before the gate completely closed. She stop running and panting.
"Still late." Siwon said coldly.
Heechul took a deep breath and glared at him. "Well, I think I'm still on time." Siwon noticed something different on her face and grabbed her hand before she can walk away. "What the-let me go!" Heechul hissed but Siwon didn't heard her command; he lifted his hand and tucked Heechul's hair that's covering the right side of her face behind her ear. The sight that welcomed him make him frown in concern. A bright red hand mark formed on her cheek and her eyes were slightly swollen.
