y/n wasn't completely sure how her life ended up like this. one minute she was having a regular morning with her friends, and the next, the ghost of her past strutted right into her life in cherry lip gloss and red-bottom pumps, haunting her like a plague. a dark cloud cast over her being the moment cecilia walked into the highschool classroom, golden curls bouncing and emerald eyes shining.
those quick seconds unlocked the gates of hell and y/n's life became a living nightmare. in the span of a few words, y/n's world was destroyed. the ache and emptiness in her chest formed as soon as she was replaced by cecilia.
in all honesty, y/n wasn't surprised.
the italian "goddess" was prettier, more outgoing, and definitely more brave. cecilia stunk of power wherever she went. her mindless entourage seemed to depend on cecelia for oxygen.
now, y/n would spent lunch in the bathroom, shaking in fear as the stall walls seemed to cave in on her hyperventilating frame.
only one good thing came out of cecelia's uninvited arrival: kim taehyung. he showed up just a few weeks after cecelia did so the events weren't directly related but it doesn't matter. the first time y/n saw him, she was in the nurse's office. y/n was holding an ice pack against her bruised ankle when the lost boy walked in, looking for the main office. needless to say, she was happy to meet him. the two introduced themselves to each other and y/n gave taehyung directions to the office. she would've walked him there but her ankle was suffering and taehyung seemed to understand the directions.
y/n could never forget the endless beatings, insults, slurs, and degrading words she had been faced with each day for the past year.

y/n kept her head held down as her class whispered about her. y/n's eyebrows were knitted like they were anytime she was stressed. today was no different. she already felt like crying.
cecelia walked in the classroom to see y/n seated at the back, where she always is.
"it's a shame that you're still here. you know, i really thought yesterday would've been the day. i can't believe you're still alive. i wish my suffering and the suffering of everyone in the world would just end. just kill yourself, y/n. we all know it'll happen eventually. you are honestly so selfish. just give everyone what they want . . . and die. it's not like you or your pathetic life matters anyway!"
