My Blood, Sweat and Tears (Discontinued)

Chapter 5

I really had to go home. Like really. I couldn't just run away from my problems. I had to talk to my parents about this and everything that I had heard.

I managed to convince myself to go there but Jaemin was still unsure. I tell everything to her. She is my best friend after all.

"Are you sure you're ready to do this. I mean...after everything you've told me I'm not so sure that they...are good for you." She stated 'as-a-matter-of-factly'.

"Look. I can't just run away from my problems like that. I have to speak to them. Properly. They are my parents and I'm sure they love me."

"But...arrrgh...you're so frustrating. FINE! But don't come crawling back to me when they do that again."

"IF they do it again. And don't speak about my parents like that!" I said I defence.

Jaemin chuckled and pushed me off.

"Go talk to your parents! I don't want to look at that ugly face of yours." She said jokingly.
I hit her in the stomach and she whined then pouted.

"Your aegyo don't fool me pabo!" I laughed at her shitty attempt of aegyo.

I stepped out of the door and walked to my parents house. It wasn't a good day. It was cold and wet and there was also some black ice on the concrete of my parents' driveway.

I was arguing with myself whether I should knock on the door or not and eventually brought up enough courage to knock.

Immediately the door opened and I was facing my mother with a phone in her hands. Her skin was pale and she had red puffy eyes, like she had been crying. Her hair was a mess and she had no makeup on. She looked sick.

My mother stared at me for a minute then she brought her hand to my face then slapped me.

"Never run away like that again! You hear me?"

She pulled me into a massive hug and we both started sobbing. I missed her so much.

"Come inside. You need some rest, plus I need to tell u something important."

"Sure. What's wrong."

"Well... you're father and I...as you know, we haven't been exactly...getting along. You're father has done some terrible things so I've decided–"

"And you've NOT done any terrible things?!" I screamed at her. She can't just put all the blame on my father.

"Ok let me rephrase that. We have both done some terrible things and have both decided to have a divorce."

Even though I expected it, I don't know why but I started crying. This was something I knew was coming but just didn't want to come.

I was caught in the middle, having to choose who to live with. I knew I wanted to live with appa because we are really close but I didn't want to break eomma's heart.

I really needed some fresh air so I decided to take a walk.

I walked to a nearby park and sat on a bench. I plugged in my earphones and sat there, trying to put my mind off things.

Suddenly, someone took one of my earphones out of my ear.

I looked at Tae as he put the earphone in his ear and looked at me mischievously.

"Hey!" I smacked his head and he started to fake cry. I just rolled my eyes.

"So, what's up."

"The sky." I said plainly, still not looking at him.

I heard his chuckle and I faced him.

"Hey! What's funny?"

"It's just that, you really are something."

"Meaning?"

"Meaning that, you're different."

"Different? How?"

He turned to look at me. Our faces were literally inches apart.

"Different as in the most pure, caring and amazing person I've ever met." He whispered to me.

Our noses were almost touching. I looked into his beautiful chocolatey brown eyes. Why was my heart pounding so fast?

He leaned in and kissed me. I kissed him back. It was short and soft but it was really meaningful.

I pulled back, still shocked at his sudden move.

"Uhh...sorry. I didn't mean to... I...I don't know why I did that."

"Umm I should get back."

When we were walking home, I decided to make a brave move and hold his hand. He looked at me and smiled.

When I reached my doorstep, Tae suddenly looked at me.

"Look I know we just met and everything and I don't why but I feel really happy around you. You make me feel weird butterflies in my stomach and what I'm trying to say is-"

"SAMANTHA! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN THE PAST TWO HOURS?!" My mother screamed at me as she opened the door.

She grabbed me inside and closed the door. Well more like slammed the door but...you get what I mean.

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you but I just went to the park." I don't think she even noticed that I was with a boy.

"Well next time please tell me. I was really worried."

"Sorry eomma." I apologised again.

All I could think about when I was going to bed was what Taehyung was about to tell me. It was driving me insane!

I realised that I had to get to sleep quickly because I had school the next day.

Maybe Tae will tell me tomorrow

Before I knew it, I was asleep.
