TRIGGER WARNING: SA/SH

*if you are sensitive to sexual assault or harassment, skip this chapter*

next morning

I walk into the school building, sadly without my AirPods because I forgot them at home. I was completely exhausted, I had no energy whatsoever. I stayed up really late last night working on the project, to make up for the work I didn't do yesterday. I think I slept around 4 again, so I'm actually craving sleep.

I yawn, covering my mouth while I walk over to my locker. I can see girls staring at me while I was walking by, giving me death stares and whispering to each other. I mean, I don't really care anymore, but it does get annoying.

I stop in front of my locker and open it, taking the things I needed and putting it into my locker. When I was done, I walked to the bathroom area all the way in the back, since the ones more closer were way dirtier. All of a sudden after I turn around, I see a random dude that I've never seen before.

He gives me a creepy smirk, staring right into my eyes and it gave me chills throughout my spine.

"Do you need something..?" I stare at him back.

"You." He smirks even more.

Dis. Gust. Ing.

I tried not to gag after hearing this. I used every brain cell within me to keep a straight face so that I didn't start laughing in his face.

"Are you new here? Ask someone else to show you around." I'm about to walk away.

As soon as I'm about to walk away from this guy, he grabs my wrist and makes me stand in front of him again. He holds my wrist tightly with force, so tight that it started to hurt. I wince, not knowing what to do.

The way he held my wrist was in a way that it was hard to see from any angle. No one could see this from anywhere. I tried pulling my wrist away from his grip but his grip only got harder and tighter, making me wince again.

"Stop.." I squirm.

"You like it forcefully, don't you?" He gives me a creepy smile.

"S-Stop.." I stutter.

He looked me up and down with a creepy, malicious smile that I couldn't even describe. I gulp, feeling scared. I began looking around us with my eyes to see if I saw any of the guys near.

"Sunwoo.. help.." I whisper.

This guy's strength was no match for me. Every time I tried pulling away, he held my wrist tighter, making it burn.

"Please stop.." tears are making my vision blurry.

"I heard you like it rough, is that true?" He whispers in my ear.

"P-Please.." my voice cracks.

"I know you beg for it from those guys. Beg for it from me." He giggles lowly.

It was 7:20 at this point, which was when classes started. The bathroom area we were standing at was all the way in the back, the classrooms being farther away. No students or teachers were out in the hallways where we were.

It was only him and I.

He licks his lips pervertedly, looking me up and down again from head to toe. I try shoving him away with my other hand, but he grabs it by my wrist. He now has both of my wrists in his control. He was holding them so tightly, I could see red bruising on my wrists.

"Please, stop. I beg you." Tears slip down my cheeks.

He gets closer to me, breathing on my neck. I gulp, feeling weak in my knees.

"Sunwoo.. help.." I whisper, crying more.

"You want Sunwoo to help you? He's not here. It's only you and I." The guy bites his lip at me.

His hand drops my wrist and then he holds it up, almost on my waist until he got punched hard. I flinch, seeing Sunwoo. The guy ends up on the floor, as Sunwoo gets on top of him and starts punching the shit out of him.

More tears streaming down my cheeks, I couldn't say or do anything. My legs and knees were too weak, I couldn't move. There was a big clump in my throat, I couldn't yell out to tell Sunwoo to stop.

The guy was basically bloody at this point. I mean, it wasn't that bad, but it was bad. His lips were all cut and his face had bruises all over. Sunwoo really punched the living daylights out of him. Sunwoo gets off of him and looks at me, grabbing my hand.

He locks his fingers with mine and brings me out of the school building. He speed walks me to a nearby park with no one there, and then he suddenly stops us. I look up at him, breaking down in tears.

He frowns, pulling me into a hug. He hugs me tightly, and I hug him back even tighter. I sob onto his chest, my heart feeling hurt. My wrists were sore and bruised, I could barely move them anymore. Sunwoo begins caressing my hair, playing with it gently while I'm sobbing my eyes out.

"S-Sunwoo.." I say in between sobs.

"It's okay, Jihyun. It's okay." He whispers.

"Sunwoo.." I sob.

"It's okay, it's okay."

"Sunwoo, I.." I struggled to speak.

"Jihyun, it's okay," he repeated.

"I'm here now," he whispered softly.

"I'm here." He held me tighter.

I wipe my tears and he lets go of me, holding both my hands. He looks at me with such concern in his eyes.

"Are you okay? Did he touch you anywhere? Did he hurt you?" He panics.

"Just my wrists.." I show him my wrists.

He looks at me with so much pain in his eyes after seeing my purple, bruised wrists. He gulps, tearing up.

"Gosh, I'm so fucking sorry.." His voice cracked.

"I'm going to go back and kill that guy." He says angrily.

"Stop, Sunwoo.." I gulp.

"How dare he touch you like that? How fucking dare he?" He exclaims.

"I should've killed him when I was there. I should've killed him, I should've hurt him more, I should've done more-"

"Sunwoo, stop." I look at him, fear in my eyes.

His expression softens after looking at me. He breathes out, nodding slowly.

"I'm going to sue him. That's it. I'm filing a police report! That's not good! I'm suing him." He rants.

"How dare he.." he mumbles.

"Let me come over." He looks at me seriously.

"Sunwoo, we should go to school-"

"There's no fucking way you're going back! If I go back, I'm killing him!" He breathes out of anger.

I grab his hand, holding it tightly. He holds mine back, and we take the bus to my house.
