Memory Escape

Part 3

The stars were so beautiful. As I was walking down the road, I couldn't help but admire them. They remind me of my childhood, when I used to look at them with my brother. We would lay on the grass and, for hours, just watch them. They were so mesmerizing.

It was a starry night like this, when I confessed what I feel for her. When I kissed her for the first time...

*I plan to tell the story of Nika and Yoongi in a few parts. How they met, their lives back then etc.*

-FLASHBACK-

"Hahah FAG! Look at her!"

"What are you going to do now, huh?"

"Gi-give it back... Please.."

"Aww.. I don't think so. It belongs in the trash, right girls?"

I just watched her, as she tossed my backpack, with my stuff inside, in the trash bin.

"No! Please! I need that!"

"Oops.. It must've slipped from my hands."

They all started to laugh, until Minchi came and kneeled beside me. Her expression went cold, as she stopped laughing. She grabbed my hair, and pulled it strongly.

"This is my school, you ugly slut."

She spit in my face, and let go of my hair. She got up and kicked me in my stomach once again. I couldn't even react anymore. I just felt blood coming to my mouth.

I grabbed my stomach and closed my eyes tightly, crying due to the pain.

"HEY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!"

Loud and fast footsteps were heard, as someone was running to us.

"Oh! Jimin oppa! Care to join?" she said in a squeaky voice

"Are you okay?"

I felt someone sit beside me, analizing me carefully.

"What did you do to her, Minchi?"

"I was just teaching her a lesson!"

He started caressing my hair.

"Oppa-" she started to speak but he cut her off.

"I am not your oppa! Now get lost before I report you!"

"But-"

"GO!"

She shrugged, and I could hear her heels as she was walking away.

"Let's take you to the infimary"

He slowly picked me up. I could hear his breathing, which was uneven. His heart was beating fast.

"Gosh.. Please be okay. Hold on for me."

A minute later, I was laying on the bed while the nurse was taking care of my wounds. On the other side of the bed, sat Jimin. He held my hand as he was looking at the nurse, his eyes full of worry.

"Well, Nika, everything is fine. You just need lots of rest, okay?"

I nodded slowly, while swallowing nervously.

"So we are good to go?" said Jimin.

"Yes."

"Thank you for everything, miss."

She nodded and looked at me sadly.

She knows what's going on. This is not the first time I'm here because of Minchi.

"Take care of yourself, Nika."

I smiled at her, while she was caressing my hand.

"Let's go now. I'll help you home."

They both helped me to stand up and Jimin placed his hands on my shoulders, keeping me from falling. We slowly walked out of the infimary in silence.

"Th-thanks.. No one has ever done something like that for me." I said after when we got out of the school.

"Please don't thank me."

"But.. You saved my life. If it weren't for you-"

"Shh.. It's over now."

I sighed.

"Why is she doing this to you anyway?"

I looked at the ground, and my eyes started to tear up.

"It's-it's not important."

His eyes went from the road to me. For a few seconds he kept staring at me, then he spoke.

"Okay, if you say so."

-A FEW MINUTES LATER-

"Are you SURE you're okay? I can hel-"

"Jimin, you've done enough. It's fine, really. Go back to school."

I smiled at him widely, ear to ear, but he frowned.

"Ugh.. Fine. But call me if you need anything. I'll come right away. Here's my number."

I couldn't help but laugh at how cute and caring he is.

"Thank you, but I sort of.. don't have a phone anymore. Minchi threw it away with my backpack."

His eyes widened at my words.

"Oh well, take this then... It's for emergencies."

He handed me a little black phone.

"I don't need it anymore."

"No Jimin I can't!"

"Yes you can. If it makes you feel better you can return it when you get a new phone. But I don't need it, so you can keep it."

I looked at the phone in my hand, then rose my head to look at him.

"Why would you help me so much?"

"I don't know... I just want to... You don't deserve any of this."

I smiled at his words.

"Thank you, I appreciate this. I really do."

"It's the least I could do. Now, go inside. Get some rest, okay?"

"Yeah."

He waved at me and proceeded to walk away, putting his hands in his pockets. I just stared at the phone he gave me and smiled like an idiot. He's so sweet.

I put the phone in my pocket, and I slowly entered my house. Of course, no one was home. I just sighed and laid on my couch. Milions of thoughts going through my head. I couldn't help but wonder.. Why would he help a nobody like me?

"Ugh.."

I continued to think, but my eyes didn't cooperate. My eyelids were slowly closing, and in a minute, I was asleep.
