It was all a lie in the end, an empty promise.

※※※※

We walked inside a restaurant. It seemed to be empty but there were 4 cars parked, including ours.
"Are you sure this is the right place?" I asked, pulling my jacket closer to me as the night grew colder.
"Yes. He reserved the place." I followed Jewel and KS inside and she walked over to a group of men, kissing one of them. That must be Jungkook..
"Hurry up girls." She looked back at us. How did she managed to walk in heels so effortlessly? I had no idea but she was good.
Jewel was dressed in a white flowy dress and wore black flats as she let her hair down with a pearly headband on.
On the other hand, I wore a pair of ripped pants, a lilac t-shirt with cute desings on it topping it off with black shoes and a black bomber jacket. My hair was pulled into a ponytail and I still had no idea how I convinced the girls to let me dress like this.
"Hello, I'm Kim Luna." I bowed and Jewel followed.
"Kang Jewel." We sat down. I sat at the end and Jewel sat beside me, the guys introducing themselves.
"Kim Namjoon." "Kim Seokjin." "Min Yoongi." "Jung Hoseok." "Park Jimin." "Kim Taehyung." "Jeon Jungkook." (Kim Namjoon Kim Seokjin Min Yoongi Jung Hoseok Park Jimin Kim Taehyung Jeon Jungkook BTS -sorry not sorry. You may continue)

"For how long did you guys date before you got engaged?" Hoseok asked them.
"About 2 years." Jungkook answered.
I had stayed quiet, only speaking when spoken to and I liked it that way. Until Jewel told me to speak.
"Say something." She whispered and I glanced at her.
"Like what?"
"I don't know. Like 'where are you from?' or 'what do you plan for your future?'"
"Ask that yourself." She hit me lightly but that was enough to make me flinch and drop a utensil on the floor, bringing attention to me.
"Sorry.." I muttered as I crawled under the table and picked up the spoon. I sat back down and KS was looking at me with a smirk on her face.
"Luna, why don't you tell us something about you." She said and my muscles tensed.
"Like w-what?"
"How about how old you are."
"Well, I'm 17.." She looked at Jewel and she also answered.
"I'm 18, soon to be 19." She smiled. How is it so easy fot them to talk?
"Girls, I will leave with Jungkook so be careful while driving." Jewel looked at me and I gave a small nod. I heard a whisper some from my right, where Jimin and Hoseok sat.
"Please excuse me." I stood up and walked to the restroom, walking into one of the stalls as I answered Liam's call.
"Hello?"
"What's taking you so long?"
"I'm sorry, it's just that KS is saying a speech."
"Hurry or else I'll get mad and you know how I am."
"Ok." I hung up as I looked at my reflection in the mirror. The door opened and in came Jewel.
"Hey.. What's wrong?" She asked in a panic. I shook my head as I wiped away the tears that fell.
"I just miss home. That's all." She walked over to me and hugged me, leading me back outside.
"We're leaving now. Thank you for today." We bowed and walked toward the car. I got inside and started the engine, driving off.

"Is it fine if I leave my car? I'm going to take a taxi."
"Yeah. Will you pick it up tomorrow?" I nodded and called a cab, which took me home in 20 minutes.
I sneaked to the back of my house and opened the door but was surprised to see Liam waiting for me. He walked over to me and grabbed me by the neck, slamming me against the wall as I whimper in pain.
"Who did you see?" I shook my head, trying to speak but he kept tightening his grip on my neck.
" I d-did what K.. KS said." He didn't react and only smirked.
"Is that all? Were you a good girl?" I nodded as best as I could. But he slammed me against the wall again, with more force than before.
"S-stop.. Pl-please." I chocked out but he didn't stop. He kept slamming me against the wall and then threw me on the floor. I clutched my side and curled into a ball, crying.
"Please help me.." I muttered. I felt Liam's steps come closer and then his shadow covered me.
"This is why you listen to me~" He kicked me in the stomach and then left, slamming the door shut. I stayed in the floor, my body wrecked with sobs but each movement shot pain throughout my body.

I woke up to knocking and struggled to get up. I had fallen asleep on the floor and every part of my body hurt.
"C-coming!" I said and opened the door to see my other neighbor, Mrs.Kim.
"Hello." I bowed stiffly, "What brings you here?" She smiled and handed me a small bag.
"This should help." I looked through it and saw recipes, medicine, cream and bandaids as well as a piece of paper with phone numbers and I recognized one of the names.
"Taehyung?"
"He's my son. But lives on his own as he works in a company." I nodded, smiling.
"Thank you.. But how did you know?"
"A mother's instinct." She smiled and then frowned, "I want you to go somewhere else."
"Where exactly?"
"How about my son's house?" I shook my head.
"No no no. I can move in with one of my friends." She seemed to think about it then asked, "Does he know where they live?" I shook my head and she nodded.
"As long as you're away from him, you should be fine. Start packing and I'll have my son take you to their house. Come over when you're done and we can sneak your things out."
"Thank you again Mrs.Kim." She hugged me and soon left. I closed the door and walked into the bathroom.
Taking off my shirt, I winced at the sight. On my stomach, there was a big purple circle that was starting to hurt, the same on my right side. I put some ointmemt and then bandaged up. I placed bandaids on the cuts in my hands and arms, then took the medicine for the pain. I took a deep breath, making me hurt, and made my way to my room.
I took out a bag and threw clothes in it. Then took another bag and looked under my bed, taking out a box with all my savings. I started crying as I kept packing. When I calmed down, I called Jewel.
"Hey Luna, what's up"
"I'm coming over JK." She was silent for a few moments before I heard shuffling from the other side of the line.
"I'll see you in..?"
"99243."
"Take care." She said and hung up. I placed my things near the back door, behind one of my many potted plants. I then made my way out the house after I changed into some black jeans, a floral shirt with my usual balck bomber jacket and a pair of white shoes.
