when i came back from that date, i found a different side to boys my age. donghyuck was sweet to me, like you were to me when i was twelve but i know i don't like him like i like you. a lot of boys like me, but i have eyes for you and you only.
when i came back two hours late, i try sneaking in. my mom and min-ji have gone to the grandmas and they left you, the only man of our house, in charge of me. you notice my lipstick is smudged, you ask me how i managed to get it on my neck and i don't know what to tell you so i stare at the floor guiltily. when i enter my room, i see my favourite vase, the one you gave me for my fourteenth birthday, smashed. i cry.
you ignored me for the next few days and i was alright with that. i deserved it, kissing a boy i didn't like. the next time we go on a date, donghyuck invites me to his friend's birthday party, who is turning twenty. he offers me a drink and i didn't want to embarrass myself, i drink it aand it turns to five. when i get home i'm drunk.
you're still there when i get home, but you're more than angered. you ban me from seeing donghyuck ever again.
