Y/N's POV

  Today was a day where the world seemed to be against me. The day where I wished for the bullies to come most they didn't come. I was starting to panic since I promised Jiakai that I would fix this. Jiakai woefully ate his food in the morning and I could never forget the feeling of the cold shoulder he gave me. 

"I wish I never met you, then none of this would have happened." 

Blinking back my tears , I tried my best to suppress the sadness that overtook all the happy feelings I developed in the past week with Jiakai. Now it seemed like it was just a memory. Something I could never win back.

"Hey! Loser!" Marianne pushed my forehead. "Zoning out?" Jillian winked at me and gave me a thumbs up from the back. This was my last chance. The act of bravery I needed to set things right.

"What?" I bit back my fear and stood. The crowd around us gathered like fish to bait as usual.

"Earn your place, Y/N. Face the fact that you're none other than just a slu* without parents." She raised her hand and slapped me across the cheek, leaving a dark red print on my face. Tears clouded over my eyes. 

I couldn't do it. I couldn't stand up for myself. This time, not only did I fail myself, but I failed Jiakai.

I am just the same useless person that I was before I met him.

I ran to the toilet, face buried in my hands, sobs and laughter echoing around me. 

...

  I was scared to tell Jiakai the truth. Jillian told me that he would understand and that I could still go out and tell Marianne off. But I was a coward. I was selfish and wasted the only chance we had.

    Walking alone down the quiet pathway, I spotted Jiakai sitting on the bench, the wind lightly ruffling his fur. Upon seeing him, I wanted detour and hide. My heart pounded and fear was like a rope of suffocation.

    A bark jolted me from my thoughts, making me freeze in my tracks. My fingers suddenly turned icy cold, my breath became short and uneven. I clumsily sat on the spot next to Jiakai, contemplating if I should tell him the truth. I wanted to keep it a secret from him. I wanted to tell him a lie that everything was okay.

Should I? 

Time was running out and the sun was sinking further and further into the horizon. 

Jiakai tilted his head, awaiting my answer.

"I'm so sorry!" I cried. "I couldn't do it! I couldn't stand up to the bullies! It's all my fault! I am completely useless! I had one task to do and I failed! I'm so sorry....." My body shook as I broke down, tears of sadness and disappointment rolling down my face.

  Instead of claws, soft padded paws stroked my hair soothingly. Jiakai slid a piece of paper into my hands, nudging me to read it.

Dear compassionate Y/N, thank you for letting me experience things I never felt before. I never felt happier than I did in the last week with you. All the memories that we crafted together I will forever keep in my heart. I want to say that I'm sorry for blaming you for everything. I knew you would always try your best given that you have a good heart. Remember that you are amazing and sweet, and meant for greater things in this world; don't let anyone tell you other wise. 

Goodbye, Y/N.

I love you.

~Jiakai(Linma and Enshuo)

"Jiakai...." My voice trembled. I cradled the puppy in my arms.

  A gust of wind blew past, the flying leaves marked a new start as the sun set completely. The stars twinkled alongside the moonlight. Jiakai's eyes were visible from the lamplight, fading slowly to dark black. 

Just like any other regular dog

  

"I love you too." I whispered. With that, the puppy crawled away as if he never knew me . 

The End.

Hahaha.....Just kidding. Sorry if you fell for that. 😅 That was really sad though. 😭
