EURI'S POV
i sighed...it will never be the same...even if this new guy is here, she will still abuse me. i would remember the most hurtful days...
December 24, Christmas Eve
"here's your gift" she handed me with a weak smile. i opened it and it was a box with scarf on it...i stayed silent for a moment..i liked it...but i did expect a toy or something because im seven years old.
But before i could say thank you i felt a hand smack me on my head following a voice "you're never grateful! i should just never give you anything!" she got up and went to the kitchen and came back from the kitchen holding a biscuit.
she threw it at me, "that's all you're gonna eat, don't show your face at the dining room" she stood up and kicked the ripped wrapper to me, "nobody give this ungrateful shit anything!"
i just stood up looking down, picked up the box and the wrapper and went to my room feeling a tear roll down on my left cheek.
-----
as i hear them cleaning up and talking, gyu knocked on my door..he revealed his hands, the other one with food and the other one with a perfectly wrapped gift.
i smiled and hugged him burying my head on his stomach. he placed the plate on the table and gave me the gift i unwrapped it and opened the box. i took out a mini painting of the galaxy as i loved that view...
i smiled and look up on gyu. and thanked him

February 14
"we're going out in five minutes" told us as me and gyu were watching tv i went to my room and started to bring out my pencils to draw.
i heard rushing and fast footsteps downstairs then mom came in my room with a scissor. "can you cut a straight line over here" she pointed at one "off" part in her dress "but i don't- can't cut a straight line..." "just cut" "but what if its not straight-"
"ugh! you'll always get a way out of any situation! you're so irresponsible and lazy!" she pushed on my head with her finger and i fell to the ground and as i opened my eyes she threw the scissor and it landed a few inches away.."what a useless kid"
she angrily opened the door as i laid there. i heard heavy footsteps, "you should really help in this household" my step dad said...he walked downstairs and they left. i sat up and looked at the scissor
i picked it up and gyu came to my room and carried me downstairs and sat me at the couch and gave me the remote
May 28
first day of school, as i was eating breakfast...the only one present in the kitchen was me and mom...
"hey euri, can you study hard this year? because you always bring shame by your low grades" where is this coming from? "can you at least be like beomgyu? you're nothing like him" "were not even blood related" i reasoned mentally
i sat up and carried my plate to the sink and carefully placed as i cannot reach it, much. it earned a little noise
"can you be careful euri?!" i flinched " you always break things! you don't even bring good grades!" then someone held my hand...it was gyu..he grabbed my bag and walked towards the door " we're going" he smiled at mom and opened the door and went out
Gyu would always save me
end of flashback
"well mom, wish you were alive to see me bring good grades" i whispered to myself
my parents died when i was in fifth grade...because the hotel they went to had an active shooter.
i know they gave me everything i needed but...they're a little..toxic
I am so thankful to Gyu...he's always there for me..and he wouldn't abuse me.
