SOOSHU STORIES

Only For You (i'd Kill For You) [Part 2]

Soojin only looked at the culprit before tending to her boyfriend. "Shuhua, what did you do that?!" She screams at the younger girl.

"That bitch is crazy!" James shouted, massaging his jaw.

"Soojin, he slapped you-"

"So? It's not your place to do anything, Shuhua. He's my boyfriend. This is our relationship. Only James and I can deal with our problems. Stop forcing yourself in my life. We're no longer friends. We're not kids anymore. Stop following me like a lost puppy." Those were the last words she heard from Soojin.

Shuhua thinks if she kept quiet Soojin would give her some attention. Then it comes into Shuhua's mind that if she didn't do that she wouldn't know that she was bothering Soojin, and that the older girl didn't want her anymore. Shuhua thinks it was good that she did that, at least Soojin told her why they're no longer close.

One day when Soojin came to school, Shuhua saw a bruise or two on Soojin's body. One on her arm and another on her thigh. Shuhua wants to question it but she remembers that she's bothering Soojin, and whatever problems the older girl has she's out of it.

"What's that on your arm?" She couldn't take it anymore, sitting at the table in front of Soojin's, seeing how the girl's face contructs in pain.

"Nothing, Shuhua. I thought our last conversation meant for you not to talk to me ever again."

Then Soojin is in college and Shuhua is in twelfth grade. Soojin changed school, and Shuhua have found the courage to interact with other people. In her senior year, she met Yuqi and Soyeon. Then in twelfth grade she met Miyeon and Minnie who were friends with Soyeon.

Soyeon was held back a year because of financial problems, so she's in the same grade as Shuhua and Yuqi's. Minnie and Miyeon were the age, they're on their second year of college.

Shuhua thinks she's happy with her new friends, but she can't help but think about Soojin. The older was pretty much all she thinks about. Shuhua likes to think Soojin misses her too.

"Okay, I gotta go now, Soojin is calling me." Miyeon excused, putting her lipstick in her purse.

Shuhua raised an eyebrow. "Soojin?" She asked.

"Seo Soojin, a friend of mine. She's in her first year of college." Miyeon said, in case Shuhua knew about the Soojin she was talking about.

"Oh." Shuhua nods her head slightly.

"Is she a friend of yours?" Miyeon asked. Shuhua nodded.

"Yes. Used to be." She smiled.

Miyeon nodded her head slightly at the youngest before saying her goodbye to her friends.

Shuhua thinks she doesn't miss Soojin that much as she used to when she was in her first month in twelfth grade. She's feeling pretty good about herself to be able to move on from her first love.

But then someone knocks on her door in the middle of the night. She's been alone for a year and a little over now since her parents moved back to Taiwan, thinking that their little girl is old enough to be left alone in Korea. She's still afraid of the unknown though.

She opens her door, and to her surprise it was Soojin. Just when she thought she's moved on, the older girl is back.

"Are you okay?" It was the first question that left Shuhua's mouth. The younger girl examines Soojin and sees how the older girl is shivering, and how her clothes are a little torn as if it was pulled harshly or something. Shuhua chooses not to jump into conclussions. "What's wrong?" She asked but the older girl just walked passed her.
