2AM, MONDAY

My door opened, little footsteps went towards my bed

Naturally I woke up, looking at the person who just suddenly entered my room so late at night

"..Seojin" Jihoon spoke, I sighed in relief

" Hm?" I hummed, making sure I kept quiet

" Can I sleep in your bed? I'm too scared of dad" he whispered, I lifted him up and made sure I protected him

Poor soul

THE NEXT MORNING

My alarm went off, I woke up and groaned

If my parents fight on my birthday, I am walking away

Jihoon changed in my room whilst I got ready in my bathroom

The scar on my neck annoyed me

It was a slight cut from when I was 14, my father hit his peak of crazy then

I added foundation over it and like every day at school, it worked perfectly

As I took my bag and left, my father blocked the door

" Wallet" was all he said

I gave my wallet, which it was empty to since last week he spent it all on alcohol

He shot me a glare, slapping me in my face

" Seriously? You just never learn do you?!" he said as he walked off, letting me exit

I took an early bus, to drop off Jihoon first, then I could just go straight to my school

I sat downstairs of the double decker bus, a few students came, wearing the same uniform as me

" Shit, we're late" a boy said, looking at his friends

So I'm late too I guess

When we arrived at our school, tons of people were rushing to the gate, as I did too

I'm not causing trouble on my first day

As I ran in, someone screamed

" STOP!" a boy screamed, when I turned, I bumped into somebody, and their project

Whoops, that's really embarrassing

" Oh shit" I sighed, apologising to them, rubbing my hand on my nape

" It's fine " he said, helping me up, then gasping

It'd only been two years since I'd last seen Heeseung, maybe I had seen him walk by town with his friends, but we never really had a conversation or spoke since then

He laughed, " You just love bumping into me don't you?"

I turned to him, realising who it was, then looking at his broken project, " Oh fuc-"

" Don't worry about it, you owe me a favour though. Yoon Seojin" he read my name tag, repeating it over and over quietly

I followed behind him, not intentionally, we were headed the same way

" Aren't you my junior?" he inquired as I nod

He looked at my face for a moment, " Your cheek is red, and you have a scar-"

" It's nothing, I just happen to be really clumsy" I spoke, his eyes widened

" Never thought you were capable of speaking more than 5 words" he chuckled, I laughed too

He'd taken me to the office, the teachers greeting me

" Hey Lee, take her on the tour. Your parents aren't happy with you failing maths" one of the teachers said as Heeseung laughed it off

" Sure sure, let me read that " he looked at the computer screen, reading of my information

As we walked out the room he turned to smile at me

" Happy birthday, what're you doing today?" he asked whilst my eyes widened

" How'd you know.."

" I read your thing, January 18th 2002. Happy 17" he congratulated as I nodded

" Nothing I guess, my birthday isn't really special to me " I sighed as he just laughed

" It is, you can speak informally to me for 10 months. Until I turn 18 in October" he said as he walked me around the school

" I guess so" I mumbled

" So, what brings you here? You've already finished your first year of highschool at another school" Heeseung said, starting a conversation to fix the awkwardness between us

" The school is closer" I replied back as he nod

" Aren't you upset you left your friends behind?" he asked as I sighed

" I don't have any"
