"WHAT is all of this?" Heeseung questioned, a sense of urgency evident in his tone as he gestured with the nod of his head to her legs.
Haewon took a few seconds to process his words, brows curved inward slightly in mild confusion to his tone and words.
It wasn't until she followed his gaze, peering down at her lap before her eyes fell upon her legs. Her heart practically stopped beating upon realization of her exposed skin.
Her jorts had ridden up whilst she was sitting down, leaving her bruised and scarred skin exposed and vulnerable to the eye.
With a quiet hum, words jumbled up and caught in her throat, her fingers wrapped around the hem of the jorts, tugging them down to cover her skin.
"It's nothing." Haewon dismissed quietly, clearing her throat as she stared down at her lap, too guilt ridden to look him in the eyes.
"Seong Haewon, don't lie to me right now." Heeseung huffed, shaking his head as he furrowed his brows tightly together, mild frustration bubbling within him — carried by the weight of his concern.
"I'm not." The girl claimed, clearing her throat as she rested her hands over her thighs, jaw clenched and eyes settled on her shoes.
"Bullshit." He mumbled, letting out a scoff as he shifted to get a better look at her face, as she had her head turned away.
"You won't even look at me right now." He added on, his tone of voice firm and with a tinge of eagerness, wanting to get to the bottom of what happened.
"Because this is dumb. I got one tiny bruise and you act like it's the end of the world." She breathed out, lying out of her teeth as she finally turned to look at him.
"I know what I saw." Heeseung shook his head, leg bouncing up and down anxiously as he narrowed his eyes.
"Clearly not."
"Yeah? Then show me, Haewon. This is ridiculous." He urged, leaning forward a bit as she shook her head and furrowed her brows.
