Jisoo's POV.
"Taehyung, I already warned you the other day. Is it not enough for you to understand?" Mark badgered.
Taehyung laughed. "Did you?"
The tension between them made me nervous. They were ready to jump on each other necks.
Taehyung took a step forward. "What will you do now, huh?"
"I want to beat you up badly." Mark clenched his jaw.
"Here? Right now? I don't mind, but I wonder if you are bluffing. Then try it right now. I want to know what will happen to you if your dad finds out his precious younger son is back to his old self." Taehyung mocked.
Mark clenched his fist and stepped forward, but Youngjae held him. "Mark, don't let him provoke you."
"You are lucky Youngjae is here; otherwise, I'll call an ambulance for you," Mark said.
"I guess so." Taehyung laughed. "See you later, friend." _______
After Taehyung left, Mark held my hand and dragged me to an empty classroom. Youngjae was following us from behind and closed the door. "Why you don't listen to Youngjae and Yugyeom?" Mark held my shoulders tightly, giving me an intense gaze. He never looked at me with such a wave of anger before.
"Mark, I don't understand why you are like this," I whined. "What's going on between you and them? If you want me to stay away from them, tell me why."
Mark groaned, frustrated. He walked to the door and left.
I sat down, looking at Youngjae. "What did I do wrong?"
Youngjae gaze softened. "You did nothing wrong. What happened last night?"
Avoiding his eyes, I looked down at my lap. "My mom left the house. She wants a divorce."
Youngjae got closer, patting my back, trying to comfort me. "It must be hard for you. I don't know if I can comfort you enough, but you have us. Don't do stupid things. Do you want to see we get to die? Even if we survive dying because of you, do you think we will survive if YoungK kills us?" Youngjae frowned.
I laughed hearing Youngjae's words. "I'll never let you die, moreover, because of me." _______
I got downstairs after I took a shower. I spotted my dad sitting in the dining room with his chin on his palm. He looked exhausted. I walked carefully. I didn't want to surprise him.
"Dad.." I called.
He looked up, forcing a smile. "Jisoo-ah, sit down. I want to talk about something."
"Dad, I know. I heard everything last night." I whispered. "You have me. I'll always be with you."
"Thank you, my kind Jisoo. I promise to work harder. I'll make things work. It'll get better." He promised.
