You Saved Me

What's happening?

~Min Jae's POV~
"Yahhh, how long do we have to walk?? My shoes are wet and I'm tired!", Rachel said in annoyance and Sung Jae respond irritated, "can't you just stay silent? it's deafening" and that's how the war started between those two. I noticed Se Kyung have been acting weird since this this afternoon as she kept quiet, not seeming to be worried about y/n even though she's her bestfriend but more of like a reaction of nervousness that's pasted on her facial expression. Ignoring those two, I continued walking in the pitch black area, only the help of our flashlight that shines through the darkness with Se Kyung walking behind me leaving the other two behind. "Oppa~ my leg hurts", there she goes again making me cringe at those words followed by goosebumps. Stopping at my track while turning to the back and asking Sung Jae to bring her back to camp, he refused, "wait what?! she's your girlfriend, why should I accompany her?!". I sighed, tired of having to entertain Rachel, "then just stay here while Se Kyung and I continue searching", looking at Sung Jae without glancing over Rachel, "b-but oppa~~ I want you here with me.. I-I'm afraid of the dark and I don't trust this guy over here.." she said pretending to be all freaked out.

"Seriously Rachel? Are you sure about this?", I asked in fear of being found out and looking at the pills in my hands to be put in y/n's drinking water. She crossed her arms, "do it", is all she answered. Y/N has been my bestfriend for three and a half years, she is all I had during my ups and downs, my case is somewhat somehow similar to her's, I grew up in an orphanage with no parents, no family. We met during christmas eve, I was out walking by my ownself in that cold winter in the evening and y/n happened to dropped her purse so I called out to her just to return it and she thanked me saying that, "oh, thank you so much! I don't know what will happen if my purse went missing. Anyways, I'm y/n! What about you?", reaching out her hand to shake mine. I first ignored her and continued to walk my own way but she stopped me, "hey, I know this is kind of creepy but would you like to have a tea with me? You seems like you need one". I thought twice and agreed to it and from there on our conversations started, at first I didn't tell her where I'm from but as months passed by, we grew closer and I get to know her well, so does she and we ended up being bestfriends. We went to the same high school and all the teachers liked her, to be honest I envied her so much and up till now, all of them has been praising her, for how smart she is, how helpful she is, so and so. I used to have a crush on Mr Park and y/n knows about it, yet she tried to get close to Mr Park, from what I heard from the other classes girls, that's what pissed me off. "Make sure you add in enough of it to knock her out", Rachel added. "B-but it's gonna kill her", she glared at me with my yes-I'm-mad-at-her-but-I-won't-murder-her answer. "Fine", is all I said.

-It's raining heavily and thunderstorms can be heard everywhere, the girls were walking side by side to each other while the boys are separated, one at the back and one at the front-

//At the hut//

-The wind's too strong that causes the front door to slide open and close with creaks sound-

Couldn't hold on anymore, I closed my eyes, hoping that someone will come and save me. 'It's alright y/n, you will be fine, someone will look for you', my heart said. A flash of Min Jae's image came to my mind, "why do you even exist? Just get the hell out of my way" he said, walking past me while holding onto Rachel's hand. She rolled her eyes at me and purposely gave a peck on his cheek, thinking that I will be jealous or something. My heart hurts, knowing that my existence is not noticed by anyone, 'why do I have to go through all of this? What have I done wrong? What is my mistake? Why do people hate me so much?', my head is full of questions, 'was I fated to be a loner? Or is there a piece of a puzzle that's missing I have to look for?' and this brings me back to the days where my parents had a car accident. Mom told me to stay strong no matter what happens, she left a note saying that someone will be waiting for me but she didn't say who.. and my dad gave me a purple amulet that has a small image of a dress. I wonder what does it represent, 'is there any meaning behind this?'. I missed them so much, I visited their grave twice a week but for this week I couldn't because my group were tasked to venture this forest for our biology research. 'Why of all the people, it has to be them?'. Now back to reality, it hits me hard that my life would have been different if I didn't reject the admission invitation from College of Biology Studies in the US. I could have gotten the opportunity to work with real biologists and a more professional one at that instead of having to suffer this much. 'Mianhae eomma, appa..'

Managed to get away from the clingy girl. 2 hours has passed, 'where are you y/n? You're making me worried' my heart whispered. 'I'm sorry that I have been cruel towards you'. Flashing out my flashlight on the ground seems like a really useless thing to do, footsteps mark is not visible due to the heavy rain that causes it to be wiped away. "This is all my fault. What else can I do to find you??" I sighed.
