" Remember what I said?" I looked down at Jihoon, he gave a nod

" Cover my ears and hide behind you" he said, I gave him a high five

" Good " I said, he hid behind me as I came inside

" Seojin I'm sorry, it was just an accident" my father said, worry in his eyes

" It's fine.." I said, him sighing in relief

He was only scary once he was drunk, when he was sober, he'd apologise and beg for us not to kick him out and call the police

There was a time I called the police, and failed

He ran far away, and when he got caught, he only spent the night in a jail cell

The reason why? He lied and said he barely hit my mother, saying she was being dramatic

Honestly, there are times where I've found him insane, and I still think he is

I made my way to my room and changed, once I was ready I took a deep breath

I quickly left abd locked the door, taking the bus to the mall and rushed to the fountain, where Juyeon was

" There you are! The others are coming soon " she gave a smile as I raised a brow

Others? As in more people were coming?

" Juyeon!" someone shouted from a distance, she waved at them

Heeseung and Sunghoon arrived, wishing me a happy birthday

" Figured we'd make your birthday more fun " Sunghoon said, panting

" Did you run here?" I asked, watching the two catch their breath

" We missed the bus " Heeseung said as I gave a nod

" So, where we heading first?" Sunghoon asked, Juyeon turned around, walking towards somewhere

***

With the amount of shopping and walking we did, everyone agreed on going back home

" There's no buses available" Juyeon said, sulking

" I'll take her home, we're neighbours after all" Sunghoon said, grabbing Juyeon's shoulder to turn her around

" I can walk" I said to Heeseung, him stopping me

" Absolutely not, what would my father do to me if I risked my tutor's life?" he said, reminding me that I had to tutor him

I turned on my phone, checking any messages, but then Heeseung added his contact in, taking me aback

" I'll text you when and where to come over " he said as we were taking a few turns to my house

It was 8pm, yet very dark, so I could see why he offered walking me home

As we arrived, he waited patiently until I unlocked the door and went inside

He even held my bags for me, placing it on the doorstep

To avoid trouble, I locked the door as if my life depended on it, then I checked the eye hole, watching him take steroids further and further away

Once I turned around, my mother was there, giving me a glare

" Where were you?" she asked, concerned

" Spending my birthday with some friends" I said, picking up the bags from the floor

" Friends?" she asked, I nodded

" Right, with what money? Surprised you managed to hide that from your dad " she said as I sighed

" They paid for it as a birthday gift, my money is in my phone case " I said as she gave a nod

" Hide it before your dad sees any of that" she said as I gave a smile, rushing to my room

ONE MONTH LATER

" See, this is how you'll fail. Pay attention to the questions!" I scolded Heeseung, him sulking

" Seriously, when will I need this in my life" he pointed at the textbook as I sighed

" During your exams, once you pass you'll thank me. I'm helping you achieve your career mister businessman" I said giving a glare, him shooting his head back to the book

" I better see some improvements within these next two months" I said, packing my bags to leave

TWO MONTHS LATER

Heeseung had done his exams, since he was in senior year, he finished the school year a few months earlier

As I walked by the halls, Heeseung came running to me

" Thanks to you I might pass" he gave me a smile

" Really? Why'd you think so?" I said, scrolling through my playlist.

" I zoomed through the exams, I'll promise to text you my results" he said as I just smiled

" Also, you still owe me that favour for ruining my project " he chuckled, I groaned

" When should I-"

" Don't worry, once I get my results, you have to buy me barbecue " he said, I nodded

" Alright, see you then" I waved at him, he turned to leave through the front door

I was quite proud of myself, if it weren't for me, Heeseung wouldn't have been so confident in his exams

That was all for me, senior year begins soon

That was all for me, senior year begins soon
