Jihyo's POV:

I felt it: someone's eyes on me. I was still in the canteen looking at my baby brother sitting outside talking to a boy from his year. I turned around to meet four burning gazes.

I just kept my glare on to intimidate them and tell them not to fuck with me. I was too tired and busy to deal with their shit. I looked at them gravely but one set of eyes caught my attention the most.

Kim Seok Jin.

It wasn't until I saw him cowering away from my glare that I softened. What is he? 25?? Still scared of him and the monsters under his bed?? Not to blame him though. What could he have done for having the worst father one could have asked for?

I kept on looking at him while he played with his food. The other three on the table were kind of amused by his behaviour. One of them nudged him and asked him something, maybe that if he was okay...

He sighed and looked up to meet my eyes again and nodded his head yes to the boy. What was his name again? Ahh... Kim Namjun?

I turned back around and sat up straight. I gobbled the remaining food I had on my plate and stood up to throw it.

Someone approached me. I looked around to meet Jiroki: a boy who works for me. He is quite young. The same year as Jungkook. He had been here to look out for my brother while I was away. Quite a dependable lad.

"Scar" He smiled a little.

"Hey Jiro"

"Nice to have you back leader"

"Its nice to be back too!"

"Well! Things were well until you turned up again!!" He laughed.

"What do you mean?" I laughed.

"There were sightings of members of Malignant today around the town. They know you are back."

"Well that's what I want. I want them to know I am back with more power. I want them to fear me more now" I laughed.

"Well, who am I to interfere then?" He humored with an amused smile.

"Well, now he knows" I sighed.

"What? You told him?" He panicked while looking around the cafe as if looking for Jungkook. His eyes stopped somewhere.

I followed his eyes to find the four from before still looking at us.

"You know, they are quite protective over him" he mumbled.

I looked at them and rolled my eyes purposely to let them know that I saw them staring.

"Oh my!! I didnt know!! What the fuck Jiro? When will you stop stating the obvious??"

"Never!" He stuck his tongue out at me.

"Should I remind you I have a gun in my locker that can blow your brains out?"

"Oh shit!! Sorry Scar!!" He squeaked looking horrified.

I patted his shoulder and walked back to my table. After collecting all my things, I walked to my lockers to stuff everything in. I was free for the rest of the day, anyway. Just a music class in the last period. A senior majoring in Music has perks you know.

At the end of my locker, there were some old photos, some Polaroids of recent years and sticky notes about thousands of things.

I pulled a picture out; it was really old and torn. I remembered having this same picture at my bed side table a long time back. It was a picture of a three year old me with a one year old Jungkook on my lap. I smiled at the photo blinking back my tears.
