Scar Like Memories 상처 같은 추억 (EXO Xiumin, BTS Jin, Red Velvet Irene, Wendy)

Two

Irene's POV

"What?" Jin said. "According to the rules, I can get back in the FBI if I didn't do anything wrong for the past week. And you know you can't stop me."

I barged out of Jin's house. Even his door has a Mario sticker. I punched the door and went to the facility again.

When I arrived, Jin was already there. Everything about him was Mario. His handphone cover, his shirt and even his car.

"Oh," said Jin. "Come. I wanna take a Selfie with you and upload it on Instagram. Hey, be grateful. I'm an ulzzang. I'll tag you, don't worry."

That night, we went undercover again. This time, it was a party. Some ministers were there. I could even see Jungkook's father.

Then, I saw the guy we were looking for. There were no online records of him, but we had some written by hand.

We went in partners since I recruited Seolhyun. Wendy and Jimin. Yeri and Jungkook. Seulgi and V. Jin and Seolhyun. And.. Me and Xiumin. I was grateful it wasn't Jin, though.

"Xiumin," I said. "There's the guy. Come in, I'll come in from the left and you'll come in from the right—"

Xiumin was already moving. I doubt he even heard a single word I said. The guy noticed and shot Xiumin's shoulder.

The crowd shouted. I grabbed my gun but Jin shot him first—through the heart, which wasn't the part of our plan. Jungkook's father would be so mad.

We returned. Everyone was so down. We were supposed to question the guy about something, but that was never going to happen.

"Hey," said Seolhyun. "Our work is done. Let's go home and just.. try to work things out."

I wanted to help Xiumin, but he ignored me. I ran infront of him, and surprisingly, cried.

"What's wrong with you?" I said. "You ignored me, and got hurt. You ignored me again, and I'm the one who's hurt. Are you that proud of yourself? Can't you even spare some time for me?"

I spun around, but he held my wrist.

"Look," said Xiumin. "I'm sorry, but you chose to breakup with me. I had no intention of hurting you. But like you said, scars just don't fade away. If I ignore you, I can forget you."

He then hugged me. I didn't believe it either. With an audience, I didn't feel good about it. But I cried on his shoulder—not the one shot, obviously.

"I'm sorry," said Xiumin. "I'm sorry for hurting you. I'm sorry for being a jerk and I'm sorry for this."

He pulled his lips to mine.

My tears stopped. The only thing I felt was his lips. I closed my eyes.

"I forgive you," I said. "I forgive you for hurting me. I forgive you for being a jerk and I forgive you for that."

"Uhh," said Yeri. "I'm just gonna go home. No, no. Don't mind me. Just keep doing what you were doing."

Wendy's POV

It hurts seeing that. I thought that Xiumin's sweet talk in the car was real, but I guess he just used me.

I wanted to resent Xiumin and Irene for loving each other, but love wasn't a crime. I just could resent myself for falling for Xiumin.

"Hey," Yeri said when we were on our way home. "Wendy, Wendy, Wendy. Do you think Xiumin and Irene make a good couple? They were so sweet!"

"Uh?" I snapped out of my daydream. "Uh, yeah. I-I guess so."

Those words were forced too. I couldn't stand seeing those two together.

The next morning, Jin sat beside me while eating. He looked so pissed. He even stole some of my crackers.

"Hey," I said. "What's wrong with you? Stop stealing my crackers, Jin."

"That's it," said Jin. "I'm going to cause some trouble so they could fight again and I'll have a chance with Irene. Watch me, Wendy."

Jin went over to Xiumin and Irene who were laughing. Then, he took a mineral water bottle and poured it on top of both Irene and Xiumin's head. He messed up Xiumin's face.

"Oh my gosh," said Jin while laughing. "You look so hideous, Bae Irene."

"What?" Irene said. "But Xiumin is uglier! Darn you, Jin."

"The heck!" Xiumin exclaimed. "What's wrong with you, Irene? That's it. I take back what I said last night. We don't have any relationship now."
