you and chaewon had been dating for two years. those two years has been the happiest moment of your life, and you wanted more. however, these past few months, chaewon has been acting a bit weird⎯ making you worry of her current health. you wanted to ask her about it on todays date where you'll be taking her to han river.
you arrive in front of chaewon's door, you take a deep breathe before knocking. after two or three knocks, the door swings open, revealing a smiling chaewon.
"hey, you look.. beautiful." you say, eyeing her up and down, and she did look beautiful. she wore this gray sweater with a black skirt and grey vans to match. it was really casual but she looked beautiful in anything she wore.
chaewon blushed and said a small 'thank you'. you smile and give her a kiss before offering your hand for her to take. chaewon happily takes it and you two leave her property, hand-in-hand.
"so where are we going today, jagi?" chaewon asked, you smile at the nickname.
"well, i thought, we should go to a restuarant to eat and go to han river afterwards." you say.
"sounds fun, lets go."
...
you and chaewon had finish eating and is now sitting on a bench at han river, looking far into the sea. chaewon's head lays on yours as your left arm wrap her protectively. you and chaewon sat in silence, enjoying each others' presence before you decided to break the silence.
"chaewon-ah.." you spoke, your voice trailing off. chaewon hums in response, obviously listening but her eyes are elsewhere.
"you've been kind of acting weird these past few months, like you ask me a lot to hang out outside, and you always wear long sleeves which honestly you don't really like to wear. is everything okay, chaewon?" you ask. chaewon's head lifted up from your shoulders and you look into her eyes, but her eyes were trembling as if she was about to cry.
"ch-chaewon-"
"i-im sorry, y/n.. i-i have to go." chaewon stood up but you grabbed her wrist, her sleeve was somehow lifted and you saw her with these bruises all over her wrist. you were speechless. chaewon pulled her arm away and ran.
"chaewon!" you scream, but she was no where in sight.
...
its been a few days since that night and you havent recieved anything from chaewon. no messages, calls, or nothing. its like she didnt even exist in the first place. you sigh, laying on your bed, staring up to your ceiling⎯ wondering about where chaewon is or how she's doing. as you lay there, an idea popped into your head.
you stood up from your bed and rushed out of your home, running to chaewons house. you arrive in front of her door, taking a deep breathe before going to knock but even before your balled fist had hit the door, you heard screams from the other side. your heart dropped and you attempt to open the door, which was already unlocked.
you enter her home, searching for the sound of the screams which were definitely chaewon's. then you heard the screams again which came from upstairs. you ran up those stairs, tripping along the way but you stood back up.
you ran through the halls, looking for chaewons room and you saw her room at the end of the hallway. you ram through the door and my god, did the sight make your heart break.
"m-mr.. k-kim.." you hoarse out. it was chaewon's father, he was abusing and beating up the girl you loved. you were shocked and angered.
chaewon was crying out for help but mr. kim continued to beat her and then her eyes land on yours,
"y-y/n.. he-help.." she whispered before blacking out. your anger blew and you grabbed the nearest thing next to you which was a glass bottle.
you run to chaewon's father and attacked him with the glass bottle. the bottle broke and mr. kim grunted in pain, but it wasnt enough. you gripped the broken glass bottle and stabbed chaewon's father several times until you stopped hearing him breathe.
you calm down and blink for a few seconds, and then you realized. the blood of chaewon's father was now on your hands.
...
"the defendant, y/n y/ln, is guilty of illegal possession of a weapon intention to kill and the murder of kim chaewon's father. there is sufficient evidence to prove that the clear intent for this crime is hatred. the defendant is over the age of eighteen and will be sentenced for 20 years in jail."
after your court hearing, you were taken to the visitor room,
"you have five minutes." the guard says before you enter. as you go inside the room, you saw chaewon on the other side of the glass wall. you sat on the chair, facing the girl you loved.
as you and her looked into each others eyes, there was something odd about chaewons.
"chaewon..." you say, barely above a whisper.
"y/n.." she says back.
"i-im so... so sorry." you say, feeling hot tears run down your face.
"i know you are. but i cant forgive you." chaewon says, nonchalantly.
"w-what?!" you say, surprised.
"your father.. abused you for months on end, and you cried out for help but no one was there to hear them. but i saved you.. i saved you damn it! even if what i did was wrong, i still saved you, chaewon-"
"i loved my father dearly. i knew he was just like this because mother left us a few months ago. i was abused and hurt, but even through all that, i still loved my father. he was always sweet to me before mother had left and i know that i just had to give him time to heal.. thats why i cant forgive you.. because you killed someone i loved." chaewon now had tears running down her cheeks. your eyes soften,
"ch-chaewon..i-im sorry.." you cry out.
"me too, y/n. im sorry for doing to you." chaewon says.
"what?" you ask, confused.
"im breaking up with you."
