4: Her Secret

Taehyung's POV

BEEP!!! BEEP !!! BEEP!!!

I agressively hit the snooze button on my alarm clack. I slowly crawled out of bed. I went to the washroom to get ready. Once I was dressed I just remembered...
Today was the first day of their stupid bet. Trying to "woo" Joohyun, just so they could go ziplining in the Amazon jungle in Brazil with Hoseok hyung's father. Honestly, was it even worth it? I'm speaking wiht personal experience. I know that women are delicate and fragile creatures. If anyone did that to my younger sister, Yeri, I swear I would kill him. I would kill any man that would use a woman for their lust and satisfaction. I am thinking of my dad when I speak of this topic. I had to stuggle to take care of my mother. She finally found a job after eight months of being unemployed. She was a complete wreck. I don't know how I managed to keep the truth away from Yeri. Well now she knows because she is old enough as she is 16. She handled it better than I thought she would.

I put on my school uniform and headed downstairs and greeted my mother making my favorite breakfast! PANCAKES!!!

"Mmm. Looks delicious!" I said to mummy Taeyeon.

"Yeah, well I bet it tastes even better." She said with a smile plastered on her face, putting 2 pancakes on my plate. She handed me the maple syrup. It tasted so good!

"Hey mom, where's Yeri?" I asked.

"I'm here!!!!" Yeri shouted as she was running down the stairs due to the smell of pancakes, with her bed-head and her pyjamas that look like she just fought with a lion.

"Take it easy!" Mom said to Yeri.

Yeri came over to the table and shoved a pancake in her mouth as she was fixing her clothes.

"Yah, don't get your pyjamas sticky from the maple syrup!!!" I yelled. "You sleep in those clothes!"

"Okay, okay calm yourself oppa." She replied a bit annoyed.

"I'm going to school now, are you coming or not?" I asked as I was in a hurry. My friends wanted me to head to school a little bit earlier than usual just to hang out.

"No, what am I gonna do there?" She said with sass.

"Well suit yourself."

"Bye oppa!!!" She waved as I walked out of the house.

On my way, walking to school, I decided to head to the convenience store for a drink. I entered and went to the coolers. I was walking forward, not looking anywhere else but focusing on my drink choices. Yes, I know I have something wrong with drinks okay? I was walking when I accidently bumped into a girl, making her drop her things. IT WAS JOOHYUN! It was still pretty early. It was around 6:30am. She had her hair in a very, messy bun and she was in her pyjamas. She was so cute. She was probably in a daze from just waking up as school starts at 8.

"I'm sorry." She said quickly. Then she starred at me from head to toe. She was probably wondering why I was already in my school uniform as there are one-an-a-half hours left till school starts.

"No, I'm the one who should be sorry. This time I was the one who wasn't looking where they were going." I said, trying to make her feel better.

I bent down to pick up the things she was buying. She was purchasing oitments for deep cut wounds and bruises. I also saw some bandages.

"No, don't worry I'll pick it up!" She said. I heard the nervousness in her voice. I was worried that she needed these things. I was still bent down frozen as I saw a huge bruise on her right hand and a cut on the left, as she was picking up her items.

She went and the counter to purchase her oitments and band-aids.

"Thank you." She said to the cashier and headed out.

I forgot about my drink (which NEVER happens) and decided to follow her. I felt like something was wrong. I didn't wan't her to be hurt. I needed to protect her.

I was secretly following to her house and saw her enter a huge mansion. Woah, she must be loaded with money. What was strange, is that she was entering her own house as if she was a theif. She closed the door slowly. As soon as she closed her door, I went on her porch. Then my phone suddenly vibrated.

Namjoon Hyung: Yah, Taehyung, where are you?

Me: I'm sorry hyung but I'm gonna have to come to school at my normal time. Mom needs me right now.

Namjoon Hyung: Okay, I understand. Take care of yourself.

SLAP!!! I heard the noise coming from inside of Joohyun's house making me jump. My heart was pumping loud. I hoped everything was okay.

"How dare you leave the house without my permission!!!! So early in the morning too!!!" I heard a man screaming.

It must be her dad. I clenched my fist. He sounds drunk... So early in the morning too. My blood was boiling. How can anyone treat their child like that.

Then it hit me...

She was being abused.
