(completed ig)
I saw a motionless body lying around the corner of the house... When we got there, we saw her lying unconscious...
It looked like she was grabbed and beat up in an alleyway but no one saw... her body was full of bruises and blood... i...
The hospital room felt stifling, heavy with the weight of unspoken fears and uncertainty. We stood there, a motley crew of friends, gathered around the girl who seemed to shrink into herself with every passing moment. Her eyes darted nervously from one face to another, searching for something, perhaps a glimmer of hope amidst the sea of unfamiliar faces.
Minho's observation was both simple and poignant, breaking the tense silence that hung in the air like a heavy fog. "Uh, she looks scared," he remarked, his voice cutting through the stillness.
I nodded in agreement, exchanging a knowing glance with Minho. It was clear that she was overwhelmed, her trembling hand betraying her inner turmoil. Instinctively, I knew that Felix and Jeongin would be better suited to approach her first, their gentle demeanor likely to put her at ease.
"Go ahead, guys," I whispered, giving them a subtle nod of encouragement. Felix stepped forward, his deep voice rumbling softly as he attempted to break the ice. But it seemed that his voice, usually so soothing, only served to startle her further.
Quickly realizing my misstep, I intervened, gently pulling Felix aside and offering him a sheepish smile. "Maybe let Han take the lead on this one," I suggested, hoping to avoid any further unintentional scares.
Han, always the epitome of calm and kindness, approached her with a reassuring smile. He sat beside her on the bed, his presence a comforting anchor amidst the storm of uncertainty. Tenderly, he took her hand in his own, offering her a silent gesture of solidarity.
"You need not get scared of us, we are good guys," Han assured her, his voice a soothing melody in the otherwise tense atmosphere. "I'm Han Jisung."

"I d-don't believe you" she muttered. "They said that too"
"They? They who?"
"Bad men"
"B-Bad men? Like...thieves or murderers?"
The mere mention of those words seemed to send her spiraling into a whirlpool of fear and uncertainty. She recoiled instinctively, her lower lip trembling as she hugged her knees tightly to her chest.
I exchanged a worried glance with Han, silently urging him to change the subject before her fragile state deteriorated any further. It was clear that whatever demons haunted her past had left deep scars, wounds that may take more than just comforting words to heal.
As Han deftly shifted the conversation, guiding it away from the darkness that threatened to consume her, I couldn't help but feel a surge of determination welling within me. She was like a wounded bird, lost and frightened in a world that had shown her nothing but cruelty.
But I was determined to be her beacon of light, to offer her solace amidst the chaos, to prove to her that not all who crossed her path were tainted by darkness.
After a bit of back and forth, it became clear that the girl didn't really have a place to call home. She was an orphan, with nowhere to go. My heart sank hearing that. Nobody should have to go through life feeling so lost and alone.
So, without a second thought, I decided to take her back to my place. I asked her for her address, expecting to punch it into the GPS, but when she told me she didn't have one, my heart went out to her even more. I couldn't just leave her out on the streets, especially after everything she'd been through.
"Hey, don't worry about it," I said, trying to sound reassuring. "You can crash at our place for a while, alright? I, Minho, Changbin and Hyunjin live in the same dorm"
She looked at me with those big, grateful eyes, and I knew I'd made the right call (though she was hesitant). So, we hopped back in the car, this time heading to the dorm. The ride was a bit quieter this time, both of us lost in our own thoughts.
When we got there, I showed her around, trying to make her feel as comfortable as possible. "I know you might be uncomfortable with us, but we promise. we will help you get a proper shelter out - some good orphanage. Ok? Until then, you can stay here"
"Thanks" she still looked hesitant. "Where is that...uhm...brother? The blonde one with fluffy brown hat-"
"Han?"
"Yes"
"He is in the adjacent dorm. Wait i know what you need to be comfortable."
