Lost and Found || JINHWI

4

Jinyoung arrived at Jihoon's house with Daehwi next to him. From the looks of it, Jihoon seemed to be home alone. He took a deep breath then turn to Daehwi.

"Wait here, I'll let you know when to come follow behind."

Jinyounng said as he pats Daehwi's shoulder and went to the front door then knocking on it. Jihoon opened the door and see Jinyoung. He showed a disgusted expression before closing the door. Jinyoung reacted and grabbed the door and opened it up more.

"Please, hear me out this once?"

"No."

"I got evidence, please? Let the person explain it."

Jinyoung said revealing Daehwi behind him, Jihoon looked before leaning against the door frame. He motioned Daehwi to come and Daehwi did. That was when Daehwi explained everything but avoid mentioning his injured foot. Jihoon glances at Jinyoung who was hoping that Jihoon would understand and believe that. Jihoon clicked his tongue then shut the door. Jinyoung was surprised at that before trying again.

"Jihoon! Jihoon-ah! I'm sorry okay?"

Jinyoung shouts as Daehwi just watched, having nothing to do, he looked up at the sky to figure out the time alone. Guessing from the looks, he backed up then run off to the school building.

He took several deep breaths after making it to the school grounds in time. Well earlier than the actual time. He looked like one of the most dirtiest students compared to the other's including some lazy students. He felt embarrassed and worried as he walked around the field and to the classrooms. He can sense some of the students were fanning their hands in front of their nose to remove his smell. Instead of going to his designated class, he went to the restroom nearby not realizing he was being followed by few jocks. As Daehwi was getting to a stall, one of the jocks grabbed his shirt making him stumble back.

"Ah, so you're the kid that's been stinking our halls? Here, let's teach you how to wash yourself."

He said as he and his friend dragged Daehwi towards a sink that's filled with water. Daehwi used both of his hands including the injured one and stopped himself from being smashed into the water. He was weaker of course thanks to the wounds he was given, his arms gave in and his face was met with the water. He couldn't pull back out due to the jocks holding him in that position. Daehwi tried his best to hold in his breath but failed as his mouth opened letting out the air he held in. That signaled the jock to pull him up then continued on their next plan. They lowered Daehwi down to his knees and forced him in the toilet bowl. Daehwi tried to use his arm strength again and managed very little progress. They then pull him out again and slammed him against the wall while laughing at him. What Daehwi felt next was a whole waterfall landing on him. The laughters grew and grew as he was being thrown paper towels at him.

"That ought to teach you something, don't ever come to our halls stinking like that!"

They warned then closed the stall locking it well, they left the restroom as Daehwi just sat there crying softly. He was freezing slowly as time passes, his clothes wasn't going to dry off anytime soon. The bell rung signaling morning class starting and he still haven't moved. His body grew numb and weak, hair still dripping water as his finger twitched in the puddle of water he was sitting in. He hasn't moved and learned to give up trying to fight life. His breathing slowed as his vision then blacked out.

Jinyoung was sitting in class doing his given assignment from the teacher before having the feeling of needing to go to the restroom. He raised his hands and informed the teacher to gain permission to do so. He got up quickly and rushed out to the nearest restroom. He walked in and gone through stalls before stepping on a puddle of water. He ignored it first because heck he can't hold it in any longer or his bladder would hate him later. He did his business and walked up to a sink that was filled with water, looking at it confused. He turned back at the water puddle remembering it earlier.

"Did someone clog up that restroom too?"

Jinyoung thought as he drain all the water away from the sink and of course washing his hands. He approached the stall and moved the chair out of the stall door. He opened it up slowly then glance down at the pale skin boy. He lowered himself and brung his finger to the boy's wet hair and move it off to the side.

"Ah, it's you again. What put you in this situation this time?"

He spoke softly as he sighs again, he removed his school jacket and placed it somewhere. He grabbed onto Daehwi and managed to carry him from his back. Jinyoung grabbed his jacket and did his best and wrapping it around himself and Daehwi. Jinyoung exit the restroom then took off running, he was seen by couple teachers but didn't stop as they were calling out to him. He got out of his class building, across the school's field, and out to the nurse's building. He barged inside to see no one, he looked around the room to still see no one.

"Damn it, she's not here."

Jinyoung mumbled as he decided to take matter into his own hands. He lowered Daehwi on the bed slowly as he run around the room to find everything that he needs. He placed them in the tray and made his way back to Daehwi, his only objective now was to dry off the boy and treat him well.

"Thank goodness that he wasn't the only one that went through this."

He mumbled as he remembers the first time that he encountered a similar situation with Jihoon. The nurse was present that time, she taught him everything for this case scenario so here is Jinyoung practicing it with Daehwi.
