Lee JongSuk hates leaving things up to fate, it's never been too good to him, he lives every day one day at a time trying to survive school and a terrible home life. Im Yoona has never had to struggle, the only child of two doting parents, she's gro...
Noona had a guest, JongSuk had heard him arrive ten minutes earlier, Noona had told him that morning while they were eating breakfast,that she had invited someone over for dinner. He lay on his bed, he should go out and greet whoever it was,but meeting new people scared him still, there were only a few people that he was comfortable around, first was Yoona, Woobin,Noona and Halmeoni , and Woobin's Eomma and younger sister. But he was curious as to who Noona's friend was, he knew it was a man, that made him nervous when Eomma had men over she would drink twice as much as she normally did and she already drank a lot. The men she brought home were loud, rude and violent usually towards him or they acted like he was their slave ordering him to bring this or that.
JongSuk decided to risk it, he'd take a quick, he didn't even have to go all the way downstairs, you could see the living room from the third step and he would be hidden by the banister if he crouched, he left his bedroom and headed towards the stairs, carefully making his way down them. Noona and the man were in the living room, the man looked respectful he wore a suit and tie that was loosened , he picked up the glass from the coffee table and took a drink before setting the glass down, as if sensing someone, the man turned his head and their eyes locked. JongSuk broke eye contact first he was very nervous about Noona's new friend what if the man was just like everyone else, he could pretend to be nice around Noona, but abuse him behind her back, it was something that happened when he was twelve years old,one of the men Eomma started seeing seemed nice Eomma but there was something about the man that he didn't like, he was scared of him, the man wasn't violent, but the way he looked at JongSuk like he was a prize to be won, it was unnerving. JongSuk started avoiding the man when he would come over and he would come over a lot. Jongsuk would usually hide in his room it was safer there until it wasn't. Because one night the man came into his room, he had forgotten to lock the door. Then the Incident happened and it wasn't the last time either sometimes he would ask Eomma if she could run to the convenience store to pick up a few bottles of soju or rice wine , Eomma always willing to drink would leave the house ,leaving JongSuk in the house with the man, it didn't matter if he locked the door, the man would manage to unlock it. A few times JongSuk did try to tell Eomma what was going on, she didn't listen, when she finally did listen, she had actually laughed then gotten angry calling him a filthy liar. The only reason she had ended up breaking up with the man several months later was because she found out that he was seeing another girl on the side .That had been six years ago.
Line break
Noona saw where the man's gaze was , she looked over at the stairs, "JongSukkie, come say hello." She requested gently, she went over to the stairs and held out her hand, he reached up and she pulled him to his feet, leading him over to the sofa, the man stood up, he was a inch shorter than JongSuk, JongSuk always thought it was weird when adults were shorter than his height of 185 centimeters, Woobin was taller than him by an inch which was nice not to be the tallest all the time.
Noona introduced them, "This is Yoon Sang Hyun, Sang Hyun, this is my dongsaeng, say hello." She gave him a gentle nudge .
JongSuk bowed , " annyeonghaseyo" he remembered to use formal speech, sometimes he forgot Noona never seemed to mind when he spoke informally,but Yoona pointed out that adults didn't like when younger people spoke informally because they thought they were being disrespectful.
