Dec'32

I got back with eun woo. Why? I don't know. I just did. Ryan and Jungkook give their full disapproval and ven has been screaming at me since forever for getting back with eun woo.

It must be because I desperately wanted to prove my mom wrong.

She once said, I am a monster and I could never learn to love. I will never maintain any relationship.

And to prove her right, I did. Maintain a toxic one but all it matters, it was a relationship.

It has been 5 months since he semi cheated as he says. But I feel even more guilty, I didn't even feel bad he was cheating. I somewhere felt relief. Relief he was gone for good.

When we got back together, I felt choked but genuinely I'm not sure. I'll be fixed. He promised to give me a little more time to get comfortable.

I kissed him while sitting on his lap and honestly I wanted to puke.

I didn't tell that to him but I did puke later.

It was Christmas and I was baking a cake, Ryan was decorating the Christmas tree and we were waiting for eun woo, jungkook and ven to show up. They have been here in the UK for a while now. It took everything to convince them and ryan to welcome him. He hasn't even talked to his friend because it was her cousin who did that with me.

The door bell rang and I chimmed to open the door. I rushed there and opened the door to see a drunk eun woo. I was confused. He had an important international meeting, must have went down the drain. He looked at me.

"Fuck, The Seo Taeri. You dont ever have to worry about money, success, future. Your boss or whatever. Goddamn you are the boss" he said and came in.

What was wrong with him.

"You look down on me don't you? Because I am a salary man, while you give salary at such an young age. Fuck is this why you don't sleep with me?" He asked again and I rolled my eyes.

"You are drunk, very drunk" I said and tried to take him to the couch when he grabbed the color of my cardigan instead.

"I'll get done with you today. I need to show, who I am. I'll start with you. YOU ARE MY GIRLFRIEND, YOU DO GIRLFRIEND THINGS" he said and pulled me closer. Grabbing my face, kissing me, he bit my my lips and it started to bleed. I tried to push but he was genuinely very powerful.

He pulled my cardigan hard and the crochet knots loosened, opening up. He snakes his hands in, pulling my hair. Ripping my shorts off. Licking me on my face.

I felt disgusted.

"God, you were depriving me of this?" He groaned and pulled me closer.

If it was Jiha he did this to. She would have killed him, if it was Ven. First ven would have shattered him to pieces and then jungkook would shared him.

Its happening to me.

I'm so fucking weak.

Suddenly, someone kicked him off me and he stumbled back. "You bastard" Ryan cursed and kicked him again. He took a huge breath taking off his jacket and putting it on me.

He put his phone on my hands. "Dial the police" He said and I nodded before he kicked Eun woo. The door opened and jungkook and ven entered confused. They saw the sight and understood everything.

Jungkook grit his jaw and pulled his cardigan sleeves before he lifted eun woo up by the collar.

"You sick piece of shit" he said and both ryan and jungkook beat him.

Ven ran to me.

"Oh my god, Teari. Calm down. Everyone's here" she said and cradled my head patting me.

"He assaulted her" he said and my mind went blank.

"What?"

"It was Christmas, Taeri got back with the asshole again. Ryan, ven and I were not happy about it. We flew to her for Christmas dinner, that's what we always did, our found family tradition. That guy went to her drunk, shouted at her, that insecure fuck said things to her before gropping her, tearing her clothes, manhandling and what not. Ryan was at home and he pushed him off her, me and ven also arrived and Taeri slipped off him by chance. She shivered for hours, the police took him away. She couldn't file a case because if she did he would file one against me and Ryan for assualt, he was hospitalized for broken bones that day. She thought about us in the midst of all that she was suffering and with her memory. That incident is as fresh as yesterday" he said and I was stunned.

That asshole.

Oh my god.
Taeri.

Who was I angry over?
It felt like it was all because of me?

Her mother?
Bad luck? or the fate playing games with her?

When I realised I didn't just feel bad for her but felt angry on everyone who wronged her.

That is precisely when I realised she is not nothing to me.

I don't have brotherly feelings for her like I do for jiha or ven. I don't have responsible feelings for her like I had for hana. I feel a thousand times for her than I did for Na ra or da Hye. They don't compare.

What is she to me?
