CHAPTER XVIII - I'LL HELP YOU

"Are you tired? Should I carry you into the house?" He asked and I shook my head as a 'no'. "Alright." Sunghoon made me sit down in the living area while he went to get some medicine for my injuries. When he came back he placed a blanket over me and moved my hair out of the way. "Oh Sunghoon, you have a visitor today? Well, she is beautiful what is your name dear?"

A woman in her early 50s approached me. "Lee Miyeon, miss." The woman handed me some warm lemon tea. "That is a beautiful name. Are you Sunghoon's friend? He was talking about you a lot yesterday."

"Halmeoni, I just remembered that Gaeul needs to be washed, could you do that please?" The woman stood up and nodded, chuckling before she left with Gaeul. "Alright, hold still and if it hurts just squeeze my hand." I nodded and Sunghoon started applying ointment onto my cut. It stung quite a bit so I squeezed Sunghoon's hand.

He started to blow on the cut and feeling the cold air brush my skin I flinched ever so slightly. I felt flustered. "There you go." He stuck a penguin plaster over the cut before asking me to turn to the side. "What are you doing?" I asked and he didn't respond, instead, he just brushed my hair. "This will probably turn out really badly." He said and tried to braid my hair.

His fingers ran through my hair effortlessly and I started to play with my fingers to distract myself from what I was feeling. "There. Is it good?" I opened my camera and looked at the braid through the screen. "It's really nice. Thank You." I shifted in my seat to face him, "When were you gonna tell me about the photo?"

"It's nothing," I said and tried to get up but Sunghoon pulled me back down. "Miyeon it's now nothing. You need to start telling me about this kind of stuff. I can help you, why don't you let me help you?" At that moment I snapped and broke down, crying. "You might get hurt and I don't want that for you. We're friends Sunghoon. Why should both of us suffer when one can?" He bent down and tucked a strand of hair behind my ear.

"I'll always be here. I'm gonna help you through this. I'll find out who did this to you, but you have to let me?" I nodded, "Okay." He picked me up and threw me onto the sofa before tickling me. "Let's have fun then, we have to be back at school in two days." I laughed and tried to throw some pillows at him but he just blocked them with his arms.

"Don't worry about Wonyoung and that photo, I'll deal with it. For now, let's eat because I'm starving." I nodded and wiped my tears while heading to the kitchen. "Oh Hello, you two. You're looking much better Miss Miyeon." I smiled at the woman. "Please, just call me Miyeon." She chuckled, "Oh well then you can call me Halmeoni."
