I run away from my house, as fast as I can. My trembling body comes to a halt before the large mansion just a few houses away from mine.
Typing in the codes, I enter.
"IS ANYONE THERE?" I shout.
Mrs.Kim comes rushing towards me.
When my eyes meet her's I sob harder.
"What's wrong, dear?" She asks,worried.
"Eomma...Appa..Sh-she threw it...sh-" I say in between my sobs.
"Sorry, I don't understand," she says softly. She comes closer and wipes off my tears.
"Take a deep breath and then speak," she instructs.
I do as she has asked me to.
"Eomma, sh-she," I take a deep breath again , "she threw it on Appa," I start wailing. I had witnessed it. The events play on my head and I shake my head to clear my thoughts.
She asks the maid to call Mr. Kim and the maid obeys.
"Eomma she threw something on him and sh-she lit him u-up on f-fire," i manage to spill the most painful words. When I say it out loud it sounds more horrible. I tremble as the scene replays in my head.
"Oh my!" She exclaims. She rushes upstairs and I fall onto the ground. Seconds later Mr.Kim comes running down the stairs.
"Taehyung! Take care of her," he shouts before bending down to me.
"It's gonna be okay,"he reassures.
Mrs.Kim helps me up and I hold onto her for support.
"It's alright.. nothing wrong is gonna happen, he'll be fine in a few days. Stay here with Tae and we'll take Appa to the hospital okay?" She says softly but the panic in her voice doesn't go unnoticed .
I nod. Taehyung, the boy I have known only for a few months. He walks down the stairs and once he sees me, he rushes towards me. His mom gives him a slight nod and soon he takes hold of me.
I cling onto him for support. Was this all really happening? This was supposed to be a normal day. Why did this all happen? I shouldn't have called mom. It was my fault. Only if I had reached home a little earlier. Only if I had not planned on hanging out with my friends. This must have not happened. It was my fault.
"Sit down," he says. I don't reply. My thoughts don't allow me to interpret anything that he says. He urges me to sit and when I don't move he simply holds onto my hand and drags me all the way to the sofa. I don't complain. I'm too weak to.
He gets me a cup of water and I gulp down the water. The scene which I had witnessed keeps replaying. It happened minutes ago and it still seemed as though it was taking place now, right in front of me and I, I was of no use. I couldn't change anything that was happening. As though the ending of the story was already decided and I had no chance in changing it.
"what happened Jennie?" He asks softly.
" I don't know, too much happened, I-I don't know where to start from," I sigh.
"From the beginning, explain,"he says sternly.
