Dahyun's POV

I immediately opened the door of Jackson's hospital room

My anger is still lingering on me

As the door opened, it revealed Jackson who is sitting on his hospital bed with a bandage on his head and some bruises on his face

I was out of breathing

Jesus..

My jaw clenched at the sight

But before I could even explode, Jackson just gave me a warm smile

I walked closer to him

"What? I know I look handsome with this hospital gown" he jokingly said just to calm me down


I sighed shakily

"What happened?" I carefully said


He looked at me with a smile, appreciating my visit and concern

"I was walking alone, then five guys cornered me on a dark street and then there, beat me up" he shrugged but I know that he is also fuming in anger


"Did you see their faces?" I firmly asked


He sighed and shook his head

"They were wearing masks and the place was kinda dark," he said and looked up the ceiling, Thinking something


I shut my eyes in disappointment

They might plan it

"But I think I know who they are," he said and looked at me with hesitation


"Tell me" I ordered


I saw an uneasiness in his eyes, scared of what I would do this time

"B-But, we don't have any evidence---"I cut him off


A face pops up on my head, that made me furious

"It's Jungkook's gang" it wasn't a question but a statement


He stopped

I'm right

My jaw clenched more and my hand-formed into a fist
He looked at me terrified

"Dahyun, if you're thinking about it, it's a no. You can't do this alone....again" he said trying to be firm but ended up shaky


I know he's scared that what happened in the past will repeat itself

I exhaled harshly

I looked at him again, reading his eyes

He's right

I can't do this alone again

I won't allow the past to come to haunt me again

When I arrived home after visiting Jackson

I received missed calls and text messages from my friends especially Sana, asking why I left and ditched classes, but I throw my phone on the couch

I'll just explain it to them tomorrow

I slumped myself on the couch

I can't help but feel disappointed about what happened to Jackson

I shut my eyes in irritation

Jungkook is one of my enemies since middle school
I just don't know why he became like that, especially towards me

I don't remember doing anything to him

Is it because of Jieun?

If that's the case, why would he even do such things like that when I see it isn't a big deal

And he can't just force Jieun to be with him

My jaw clenched at the thought

Jungkook is one of the reasons why Jieun and I's relationship became miserable

I looked up the ceiling with my eyes still closed as I leaned my back on the couch

I exhaled, trying to calm myself

I think Jungkook has a deep reason why he's doing shits
And I'm eager to find the truth

Nayeon's POV

I frowned as I slightly turned my head to look at Jeongyeon on my back

"You aren't doing it right again" I whined at her


She huffed and let go of my hair

I pouted when she let go of it

"I told you that I can't do ponytails, Im Nayeon" she frowned and she looked cute pouting


She frowned more seeing me smiling

"Why can't you just do it yourself?" She crossed her arms still with a frown


"Because I like it when you touch my hair" I sincerely confessed


She playfully rolled her eyes but smiled nonetheless

"So please, try it again?" I pleaded with my famous puppy eyes


She sighed in defeat

"Fine" she gave up as she proceeded to tie my hair for the nth time


This tsundere is so adorable

Mr.Kim's POV

I sighed in exaggeration as I leaned my back on my swivel chair

I looked around my office

Lonely and plain

My eyes landed in the picture frame that was placed above my desk

I felt a pang on my chest as I took the picture frame

Our family picture

Me, My wife, and my children

I remembered where this picture was taken

We were on a vacation on a beach, 3 years ago

I smiled faintly

How I wish I could turn back time, back to the old times where we're all complete and happy

How I wish I could bring back my wife and our family

How I wish I didn't just let my wife drive alone that night with anger, the reason why death took her

How I wish this was all a dream and woke up seeing them again together

I'm sorry, my wife..

I failed

A tear rolled down my cheek as it drops on the family picture

I wish it was me who died two years ago, then maybe you didn't suffer and died

I'm sorry, I failed as your husband

Then maybe our children wouldn't experience this miserable life

I'm sorry, I failed as your father
