Chapter 1: First Day, New Friends? Nah! (Hyunjin)

'No! Don't! Please?! I'll do better I p-promice! Please?! J-just not the room Please, I'm begging you! Mom?! Dad?! No! Please?! I'm scared!'

I scream, waking up from the same occurring nightmare in a cold sweat...

I check the time, and it's 4 a.m. Theirs no use in going back to sleep. I have to be on campus at 8 a.m., so I might as well paint to pass the time...

It's not like Seungmin is up he has to be on campus as well...

I just hope we become doorm mates...

I get up and go down to the art studio below my apartment. I start painting and painting, not really know what it is until I take a step back and realize it's me and someone's shadow...

I don't know who the other person is supposed to be his face isn't there, but this painting doesn't give me a good feeling...

Oh well, it's already 6 a.m. I should get ready.

I go back to my apartment and take a shower. When I step out, I look at myself in the mirror and hate the sight of my body. It's litered with scars of my past that I wish I could forget...

I snap out of it and get ready for my first day on campus and leave, making sure to lock up the apartment and studio beforehand. I'm so glad I sent my stuff beforehand to the dorms, so all I have to bring is my backpack.

When I get to campus, I wait at the front gate for Seungmin, but when he comes up to me, he's with six other guys.

"Hey Hyun! How have you been?" He greets me with a big smile showing his braces.

"Good... are you ready? I don't want to be late." I say unbothered, not making eye contact with any of them.

"Yeah, but I wanted you to meet my fri -"

"Great! Let's go! The assembly is about to start, and them we get our dorm assignments. I hope we get paired together!" I say excitedly as I cut him off and drag him away, leaving six dumbfounded boys behind us.

'Sorry, Minnie, but you know I don't like people,' I think to myself.

"Hyun, why did you do that?! They're nice people! You can't stay closed off forever!" He scolds me once we're out of earshot from the boys.

I pout and look away from him.

"You know I have trust issues... people scare me, and for a good reason! You know that! I just can't, okay? Do you think I like not trusting people? Do you think I like being scared of them? I can't help it..." I say, looking back at the boy's with sad eyes. They look fine and all, but I got a weird feeling from them...

"I know, Jinnie... I'm sorry. I just... I wanted you to meet them they always ask why I never invite my best friend to game with us. Or why you couldn't make it to the meet-up yesterday... and I hate leaving you out," He says softly.

"I'm sorry, I just don't feel comfortable... I might join a game someday, but don't expect to talk to anyone..." I say giving in just a tad bit.

"That's okay. You don't have to talk or even turn on your camera," He says assuringly.

"Thanks, Minnie. I appreciate you being here for me!" I say appreciatively, hugging his waist, binding down to lay my head on his shoulder as he rubs my back.

"I know, bub. Now let's go before we're late!" He exclaims, pulling me towards the adatorium.
