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

Five

Wendy's POV

"What?" I held my hair tight. "These are my babies! How can I cut it! And how come Tiffany doesn't have to cut it."

"Because she's a minister's daughter," said Ailee. "And she doesn't want to cut it. She swore she'd paint our faces pink if we made her cut it."

"Well," I said, "my father is a minister too. And I work with the F—"

Tiffany shut my mouth. I wanted to react right away, but I sensed that something was wrong.

"Uhm," said Tiffany. "We'll just.. uh.. go home since we live in the same neighbourhood. Bye."

Tiffany forced me to bow as well. Then, we walked back home. I thought she was kidding about our house being in the same place, but she wasn't.

"Fany," I said. "Why did you act so serious? Even if I slipped, they would say I was kidding."

"Because," said Tiffany, "they're crazy. They once told me they wanted to kill every civilian in Korea so America could rule."

"Then," I said, "why did you join them? You could've just reported it to us or something. Irene would've made a report to the president."

"I had to," said Tiffany. "They're psychopaths. They even threatened to kill me if I didn't join them. Then, they just acted like nothing happened. Please, don't tell anyone. They'll go crazier if they knew FBI is in Korea."

When I turned around and went towards my house, someone pulled my hand tight.

"Wendy," Xiumin was gasping for air. "Do you.. like me? I've been thinking about it for awhile now. Is it true?"

"W-What?" I said. "What are you talking about? I-I'm not sure about what you're saying."

"So," said Xiumin, "it's true, then. Don't worry, I'm not a total jerk. So, I'll try to forget an ill mannered girl named Bae Irene—Ugh! I can't stop saying her name. I'll forget that girl and I'll love you."

I was shocked by Xiumin's sudden 'confession'. I obviously liked him, but it all sounded not real.

"And," said Xiumin, "I won't ever hurt you. I'll give you a hug for today. "

I just went home after that. I had a feeling that this was a dream. But after smashing my head into the wall, I knew it wasn't.

Suddenly, I got a message. I opened kakaotalk and someone created a group called 'English Only'. I knew right away that Eric made that group since he was the first to say hi.

Eric: Hi. I just added Wendy, guys. And there's something we need to tell you, Wendy.

Ailee: Yeah. Since someone likes you here *cough* I think they should tell you tho.

Jackson: Err, Wendy. We-uh. Have a plan since you like Xiumin. Maybe we should slowly destroy Irene. How about it?

Me: Guys! She's my cousin! That's impossible!

I just ended up thinking about it. Maybe they had a point. I could slowly destroy Irene and have Xiumin all to myself.

As I was chatting with them, Irene sat beside me and put her hand on my forehead.

"Oh my God," said Irene. "There's a bump on your head and you're burning."

I thought I felt so weak, turned out I had a fever. I was dizzy, but I managed to type 'OK' before fainting.

I agreed to destroy Irene.
