chapter 37; " why didn't you? "

October 23rd, 7:01 AM

"Y/n, you're presenting right?" Chaewon asked in the silent elevator where the girls bit their tongues. Specially, Sakura. Y/n nodded in response to Chaewon's question. "Thanks" Chaewon leaned against the elevator walls.

Hyunjin had forgot his car keys inside his apartments, causing him to go back in as he asked Y/n if he wanted to go with him. Y/n denied, she wanted to chit chat with the girls about the fun topics and the mansion project they had to submit today. What she didn't know was that the girls already knew about Y/n's relationship with Hyunjin.

-

"When did you guys start dating?" Sakura asked, pretty much of a curious cat. Y/n was caught off guard by the sudden question.

"It's about to be a month now" Y/n answered her, nervous than ever before since she didn't like how Sakura was looking at her weirdly, the sweet smile that she used to have was completely wiped off her face and replaced with a cold stare.

"And you didn't plan on telling us?-"

"Sakura" Chaewon cut her off with a sharp tone, glaring at her as the two of the girls pierced through their souls but Chaewon didn't hesitate to protect Y/n whenever she wanted to.

'this feeling..' Y/n paused, a deja vu perhaps..

"Why didn't you tell us?" Eun-mie glared at Y/n, her eyes glinted in the dark alleyway, laced with murderous intent.

"Aren't we friends? This is so mean.." Su-min pouted in mockery as the boys held up Y/n, she was barely concisous, her legs worn out on her as she was tired of running, thinking she could escape from this exact group that chased her down. Her node bled as the blood dropped onto her school uniform, a pretty shade of red ruined the white as Eun-mie looked at Y/n, pissed off about the fact that Y/n didn't tell them about how she was switching schools, this would mean, they would have to find someone else to toy with.

"You're kind of tough to be pulling this trick a day before spring break, did you think we wouldn't find out?" Eun-mine pushed Y/n down, causing her to fall on her bottom right onto the hard cement. Tears streamed down the poor girl's cheeks, hiccuping as she sniffed, her nose runny..She just wanted to go home. The spring atmosphere set in at the wrong moment as the blossom fell right on top of her uniform where the blood that dripped down her nose stood visible.

"Answer me, you fucking pig" Eun-mie grabbed Y/n by her hair, bashing her head to the brick wall behind her, causing her to wince and quickly grab her head, trying to decrease the pain coming from her scalps as Eun-mie pulled tighter. "Why did you try to run away? Are we not fun?" Eun-mie tilted her head, staring deeply into Y/n's eyes. Y/n hiccuped, her voice soar as she couldn't even speak nor could she move with how tired she was.

"Fucking useless bitch" Eun-mie threw Y/n's head back after she didn't answer her, taking her expensive silver lighter out as she played with the lid for a second by openimng and closing it before pressing onto the lighter, revealing the purple fire coming out of it.

"I'm not in the mood to be joking. Hold her down" she raised her eyebrows for a second as she looked at the boys holding her. Eun-mie knelt down, her eyes falling onto the rolled up sleeves, the scars were covered with bandaids all over them. "What the, you started taking care of these?" Eun-mie scoffed as her hands brushed past the bandaids, her fingers trailing to one of the bandaids. "I don't like it when someone ruins my art" She scoffed before she harshly peeled the bandaid off within a second, causing Y/n to wince at the pain, her arms reddening within reaction since the bandaids were still fresh. If she tried to defend herself it would either be that she would've just got bullied more, if she fought back she would've been on the risk of getting killed by this exact gang. The teens who didn't care whatever they did, their parents were filthy rich ready to save them out of their troubles anytime.

Eun-mie brought the lighter closer to Y/n's healing wounds. Y/n shakes her head in denyment, not wanting to be burnt. "No! Please...don't" she muttered out, her tone like a squeak as Eun-mie felt more eager to do so, easily entertained by the sight. "I love it when you say that" Eun-mie laughed, she re-opened the wounds by burning Y/n's hands, causing her wounds and Y/n herself to react as she screamed in pain. Her hands being held back by the two other boys behind her. Her eyes red, she was a mess. Her hair looked like a nest. Scars all over her body as she got burned further, not being able to endure it further she passed out quickly from the pain.

She ended up at the streets in a random alleyway after all of those, her shirt taken away from her when she woke up all alone in the dark alleyway, she was left with her bra only. No matter who she asked for help when trying to get home, everyone ignored her thinking she was trying to lure them into some kind of club along with some men assaulting her until she made it to her neighborhood.

"Y/n?" Miyeon called out with a tone filled with worry. Snapping her back to reality as Y/n looked around, sort of shaken as her vision got blurry for a second. "Sorry, zoned out.." she muttered. Loud enough for it to be heard as the elevator door finally opened, Chaewon noticed the shaken demeanor as she linked her arms with Y/n as the two of them walked out of the elevator.

"Ha, she's trying so hard to look pitiful" Sakura scoffed as she got out after Chaewon and Y/n had left for outside. Miyeon and Wonyoung stood in silence. "Sakura. Can you stop commenting on every move she does? You've been like this since this morning." Wonyoung crossed her arms as the three of them got out of the elevator.

"No but, it's so obvious. She trying to ignore my question by making herself look like she's not feeling well, does this only happen when I talk to her or something?" Sakura's tone laced with rudeness as she walked outside the apartment complex

"That's cause you're being rude." Wonyoung sighed, reaching her limit of keeping quiet about Y/n. Sakura froze for a second, not knowing how to defend herself. The first place she got angry was because Wonyoung was the one that liked Hyunjin but she wasn't minding it..

"You know what? The three of you switched up on me the moment you let Y/n join us. We were okay without her" Sakura scoffed as she placed her palms on her waist. "Fuck it, I'm not doing this with you girls" Sakura grunted as she walked away, stomping with each steps as she pushed past Y/n with Chaewon steadying Y/n.

Wonyoung rolled her eyes as she walked up to the two girls. "I'll go check up on her.." Miyeon excused herself as she ran after Sakura.

Y/n walked to Uni with the two girls, her mind drifted off to what Hyunjin was doing when he was coming and when they would meet again.

"Turns out her brother isn't a lawyer anymore" Wonyoung and Chaewon gossiped about random people and random topics as Y/n's went on with a blank mind.

They finally arrived in uni, Chaewon and Wonyoung went ahead to class first to get the preparations ready for the project.

Y/n walked down the alleyways, her eyes on the floor as she called Hyunjin on her phone. Hyunjin picked the phone up.

"Lift your face up, love" He spoke as soon as he picked up the call, causing Y/n to look up and see Hyunjin walking towards her with a warm smile.
