↳ Episode Five

Lilia:
Thanks about my sister yesterday
I saw you after getting on the bus

Me:
Yeah it's no problem

Lilia:
I see that you and my sister have been texting lately

Me:
Yeah
She's lucky I wasn't a creep

Lilia:
Yeah um...
Can you just delete Hae-mee's number?

Me:
Y would I do that?

Lilia:
She doesn't do too well with people

Me:
What are you saying?

Lilia:
She didn't tell you yet?

Me:
I asked her about where you guys were going once but she said it was personal

Lilia:
Hae-mee's not deaf that's what you've been thinking... Hae-mee... She needs space right now

Lilia:
So please Jun
Just stay out of our lives

Me:
Hae-mee's still a person
She still needs support

Lilia:
She gets that from Sungjun-oppa and me
She'll be fine
She just needs space

Me:
I want to help

Lilia:
Then just stay out of Hae-mee's life
She needs time to think

Me:
But I want to be here for her
I want her to know that I support her no matter what happens

Lilia:
Why did you never fight for us like this?

Me:
This isn't about us
I need to talk to her

Lilia:
Jun stop
Wait
I love you

Lilia:
Are you jealous, Lilia?

Lilia:
That's not what it is

Me:
Then explain

Lilia:
I'm sorry
I never got the chance to explain anything when we broke up

Me:
I thought you broke up with me because you liked Huijun
You were always talking

Lilia:
No... I broke up with you to focus on Hae-mee
Hae-mee goes to therapy everyday at 4
... Because our Dad used to sexually abuse her

Lilia:
After Mom died, we found out that Hae-mee was an illegitimate child

Lilia:
Dad went to jail and ever since then, Oppa, Hae-mee, and I have been trying to pick up jobs from anywhere just to get by and for her therapy sessions

Lilia:
Oppa Sungjun, he works underground, producing and selling music
Hae-mee, since she's been forced to stay mute, the only way she can express herself is through painting portraits
I was asking Huijun for dance lessons so I could try picking up money on the street

Lilia:
Oppa I love you and I didn't want to put this burden of having a beggar as your girlfriend...
I know it's embarrassing

Me:
You could never be a burden to me, Lilia
Y would you think that?
I love you too

Lilia:
You never fought for us

Me:
You never let me

Lilia:
I'm sorry

Me:
How do I know this is real

Lilia:
Ask Hae-mee
She can't deny if you ask

Me:
Ok

[HAE-MEE POV]

Your phone buzzed. A text from Win again? You smiled, grateful you had a friend like him.

Your smile drooped as you read the text, and your eyes began to pool with tears.

Win❄:
Is what Lilia told me true?
Hae-mee, are you okay?

Win❄:
You obsess over everything?
Read

You felt he shouldn't have ever found out about your condition. All of it was true.

After the abuse settled into your life, you slowly became obsessive with your friends, causing them to all leave you.
But you couldn't help it.

Your brain was taught that way after years and years of being told "You're mine." and "Keep your mouth shut or I'll cut you."

Ever since he, your father, or rather, who you thought was your father, was arrested, you became mute and unable to communicate your mind.

Why did Lilia tell Win? She had no right to. You could loose the only friend you had.

You burst open the door to your sister's room, tears streaming down your face.
You couldn't even form words anymore, and that frustrated you.
"H-Hae-mee!"

You shook your head, angrily signing at your sister, "Why did you say something?!"

"Words, Son Hae-mee! Use words!"

She knew you couldn't, which made you burst.
You scrambled to her, rage stored deep within your heart for everyone beginning to unfold.

"Hae-mee," her eyes widened as you went through her desk sloppily until you found the sharp package opener.

"HAE-MEE!" your sister screamed. Blood began flowing from your wrist onto your palms. The pain was nothing to you.

As the world became warbly, you could hear your phone playing a measure of 'Beautiful' by Wanna One while vibrating. Win was calling.

Your sister was only trying to help you gain your voice again- not provoke you.

"Hello? Please help...! My sister she-she-she cut herself!"

And the rest of it became dark.

A/n:

Hello! Mizu here <3

Quarantine has me working my butt off for school >.<

How's everyone doing?
