SEEING Yeri again sparked all kinds of things in my mind. From unpleasant memories of before I moved to the resurfaced thirst for revenge. I was too tired back then, to continue fighting against the injustice I went through, because Jimin's engagement with the same person who took part in my misery teared apart the last strand that held me together.
Now that I escaped the place where I didn't need to be overshadowed by my old self who will never come back or have to continue living with hatred running through my blood and veins, the core of my misery followed me here instead.
I clenched my fists and Yeri's words did sink in. I shouldn't be acting like this with Jungkook.
"Put me down, Jungkook," I said, looking directly into Yeri's eyes. She snorted, her mouth twisting into a condescending smirk.
When I noticed her designer clothing and my own casual outfit, it inflamed me with deep thirst for something I should give up on.
I would've wore something just as expensive as her. But I'm not. All because of her deplorable schemes with someone I hate even more.
Both of them are living better than me. I was forced to run away like a coward, a felony, while they sat comfortably at their million-dollar homes, not a scratch on their bodies.
"I didn't know you were so thick-skinned," Yeri continued. Jungkook was looking at her as well and as his shock wore off, he opened his mouth to reply. I beat him to it.
"Was what I did last time not enough to shut that useless mouth of yours?" I snapped. "How can you still have the courage to stand before me—scratch that—how can you still have the courage to even be in public with everyone knowing what you did? And I'm the thick-skinned one? You're such a joke."
Yeri's smell twitched but it didn't fade. "You think I'm scared of you? You may have gained back your memories but you seemed to have forgot that you're a nobody, Park Chaeyoung. Sure, you made my life a hell for a while but I still have much more things that you will never have. Need an example? I'll give you one: a healthy body without damaged skin."
"Yeri! How far do you have to go for you to be satisfied?" Jungkook growled. "You have disappointed me enough."
"Oppa! How could you say that to me? She did just as much harm to me as I did to her!" Yeri said, her fists clenched. "She's dating someone who hates you as much as you hate him. What's so good about her?"
I gave a dry laugh. "Did you scare away your biological father like that too? I guess it's no surprise he ran away from a daughter like you. I would too, if I were him before my life gets ruined."
Yeri shot deathly daggers at me but her smile sent chills down my spine. "You know what's the only difference between you and your parents? It's the fact that they know when to kill themselves."
I widened my eyes, her words like a gun firing repeatedly at my heart. It felt like a fresh wound all over again. I clenched my fists to calm myself down. All I could see was my hands bashing against her face.
"Kim Yeri!" Jungkook shouted. "I said stop it! Do you not understand me?"
"You should know when, too and do it quick. Do your mom a favor. It's not like she'll notice anyways right? That's how unimportant you are in the Jeon's family and to the rest of the world, Kim Yeri."
Jungkook grabbed my hand and led me away to stop a imminent fight from starting.
Still, Yeri gritted her teeth and shouted after us. "Crazy bitch is now a pathetic coward, isn't she?"
