Areum's P.O.V

I follow where my feets dragging me while keep wiping away the tears. People watching at me as I ran. But then I stop at a park, fell on my knees. Crying as much as I can

Why mark?? I started to trust you and accepted you as my friend, but why?? Why have you talked about my dark past?? How could you called me a whore?? I thought you're sincere to be my friend. And I thought you're a person whom I can trust. But I'm wrong, totally wrong.

"Areum." I feel a hand touch my shoulder

"No!! Don't touch me, don't go near me. I'm just a whore! No one should go near me. I'm a dirty girl!!" I shout at the person

Then the person drag me to stand up and hug me tight.  "You're not Areum. I know you are not. He is just a bastard who don't know how to appreciate a woman." Wonwoo said as he gently rubbing my hair, hugging me tightly.

"No. What he said is true. It's true!!" I shout as I try to push him away but he's more stronger than me

"You're not Areum. You're not. Don't listen to his words. To me you're a good girl. You're sweet and innocent. But sometimes you're fierce and arrogant, but I still like you. Because you have a warm heart. You're so caring about others, so gentle, always help people. About your past, it's all past though don't think so much. You're a victim, you don't wanted it to be happened either. Don't think about what people think or talk about you Areum, just let them be. Haters will always hate, they'll never stop. So just be what you are because in my eyes you're already perfect. No one can beat you." I give up to escape from his hug, he talk with his deep-soft voice with his gentle touch on my head. I feel a warm sensation inside me.

"R-really???" I look upward to find his eyes, then stare at it as I ask him.

"Yes." He said with a warm smile

"Thank you Wonwoo, thank you for staying with me and calm me down. Jinjja gomawo." I said as I snuggle my head to his chest, hugging him back.

"I will always stay with you."

***

After I calm down, Wonwoo walked me back to my apartment. I feel we started to close to each other. I'm glad that he staying with me. And I'm started to trust him, I hope that he never betrayed me like Mark.

"So... I see you at school?" He ask as we arrived at the lobby

"Yeah. Thank you again Wonwoo." I give him a smile

"No problem. Remember, don't think about it. Arasso??" I nodded

"I'll get going then. Bye. Take care." I said as I step into the lift and wave him

"Bye. Take care too." That the last words before the lift's door closed.

School

As usual I walk to my classroom, I saw a few of my classmates playing with each other. I walk straight to my desk and prepare for the lesson.

"Areum." I raise my head, seeing Momo beside my desk with a sad face

"I'm sorry Areum. It's not like what you think. I'm sorry." She apologize
