Call Me Woozi

seven

I walked outside in black sweatpants a red pullover, enjoying the breeze. I was thinking I should have told Woozi, but he can call me anyways. I put my hands in my pockets and decided to go to park. It wasn't that far away, at least I don't think so.

•••

I sat on the swing just thinking. When I saw three girls waling past me, familiar ones. Hopefully they don't notice me. I put my hood on and tried to cover my face but i heard a huge, fake gasp come from their way.

"No way! Is that shortie-yun?!"

Shouted Minso and her 'girls'.

I got off the swing, trying to go back the way I came from. Attempting to leave the drama.

"Oh come on, where are you going? Are you gonna go home to mommy and cry in her arms?"

My mom left me when I was 12, I had no idea why, she said nothing. My grandparents were the only family I had besides Su-Bin. My dad left when I was born. Once they died Su-Bin let me live with her, then we moved into a place together.

I clenched my fists, still looking at my shoes, avoiding them. Like I always did, but this time it felt impossible. I felt tears forming on my eyelids as they continued. Why was I like this? This isn't how I am. Why can't I just block them out like always? I haven't cried since I was 14. Why now?

"Oh. I also heard you have a boyfriend now. How could he like someone so short? Maybe he's only playing with you. Or perhaps he's an ant too?"

I continued walking, tears falling down my cheeks. Why can't I control it?

"Minso!"

I heard someone shout. I didn't really care, I just wanted to go back home.

"Jihoon?"

I stopped in place. Woozi? How does he know Minso?

"Oh wow! So he is an ant like you! Hah! I was right. Aw you guys are so cute together. Tiny forever!"

I looked and saw Woozi walking up to Minso. I just stared.

"Do you really want to do this? So what I look younger, or I am shorter? I can't believe Jisoo ever liked you. But I see why he left you. You're cruel. Why do you even pick on people? You're not so cool as you think. Leave Seo-Yun alone."

Joshua used to like her? They used to be together?

"Th-th-the, the only reason he left was because I was too pretty for him!"

She stomped away sobbing.

Woozi started coming my way. Oh no, he's gonna see me crying.

"Are you okay?"

I just nodded and sniffled.

"I'll explain everything when we get back, come on."

He let out his hand, waiting for me to grab it. I stared at him, a little hesitant.

He just saved you idiot.

I took it and walked with him.

"Thank you."

I sat on the couch next to him as he started talking.

"Minso and Jisoo started dating maybe a year ago. Only a few months ago, he found out she was bulling me and he broke up with her. I didn't want to tell him because it was already hard enough, learning a new language. So I didn't want him to be struggling with something else. Minso had this huge breakdown and stopped bulling for a few weeks only. But you're a transfer student correct? She saw you and started bulling you too. She has a thing for shorter people and I don't get what's wrong with it. But that's basically it."

I nodded. Looking down at my hands. What now?
