Behind Those Eyes

Chapter 6 :

"Hey! " a young girl shouted to another girl as soon as she saw her playing on her favorite spot in the beach.

The girl just stared back at her questioning.

"Why are you here in my spot?, don't you know that this belongs to me? "

"Eh?, are you the owner of this whole beach? "

"No, but this is my spot, so leave! "

"But this place is not yours, there isn't even your name here"

"So what?!, I'm the first one who discovered this, so just leave! "
the demanding girl tried to push away the other one.

"Wa-wait.. ah! " but the innocent girl stumbled backward, pulling the other girl with her.

They both fell on the sand with the peevish girl on top of the other one.

"You okay?.. " the new girl asked in worry even though she's the one who fell first.

And she got even more worried to see bruises on the peevish girl's arms.

"So-sorry, your arms" she tried to look at it closely but the peevish girl pulled it off away from her.

"I-it's not because of the fall.. " the peevish girl silently clarified while her eyes landed on the girl's wounded elbow.

"Why are you asking me first when you're the one who got wounded?!.. " the girl said in panic, while the other one only stared at her wound fascinated.

"Waahh, it's bleeding.. "

---

"You're a weird kid, everyone would cry when they got wounded or injured but you, you even asked me first when you took the whole blow.. " the peevish girl stated after treating the other kid's wound.

"It's just normal, because I'm strong like my Dad, and caring like my Mom.. " the peevish girl only grimaced hearing that, as she proceeded treating herself with the ointment that she brought.

"What happened to your arms and legs why you have so many bruises? "

"Because I'm weak like my mother who can't even fight back to my drunkard father"

"so your father was hurting you?, then why won't you tell it to the police?, My mom told me to look for policemen when someone hurt me bad... "

"even if it's your father? "

"hmm, I don't know.. "

"see... "

Then the new kid reach for her hand.

"Then I will be your protector, I'm Son Seung Wan... " the kid was standing up in front of her with a bright and warm smile as the sun.

Seung Wan...

Seung Wan...

The girl saw herself laughing and playing on the beach with Seung Wan, they were so happy until she saw herself crying, helpless, trembling in front of the sea with no one to help her from her agony.

She didn't come...

"I promise, I'm going to convince Mom and Dad to take you, so you won't get hurt ever again..."

She was running, looking everywhere, finding her, but she's not there..

"From now on, you're my best friend Irene.. " she heard that kid.
