In Our Next Life [Park Chaeyoung x Fem!Reader]

[9] Love and Acceptance

[Third Person POV]

"I'm not going to repeat myself" You warned as you stood against Baekhyun as everyone in the market surrounded you.

"Damn it Y/N! Not again!" Lisa cried out. Baekhyun walked closer. His first tightened, ready to punch you.

"Why don't you ever stay on your lane?" Baekhyun asked. He tried to punch you but you caught his arm, throwing him to the ground. The crowd gasped as they couldn't believe what you had done. It was an real for a woman to fight a man, single handedly.

"My friend refused you several times but you kept insisting on whatever you're planning" You said. Baekhyun got up and pounced at you. You dodged his attack but you were caught off guard. He grabbed your leg and pulled on I, causing you to trip and fall. He then got on top of you with his fist in the air ready to do damage to your face. Lisa then pushed him over, helping you back up on your feet.

"Did he seriously just tried to punch a young girl?" A person in the crowd asked out loud. Soon everyone started to whisper about what just happened.

"Does he have no shame? His family's reputation will be hurt" Another spoke.

"Is this what they Byuns are really like?" Another asked. Baekhyun overwhelmed by the people who was judging him. Lisa supported your body as you both stared down at him. He looked around to see that so many people were looking at him, giving dirty looks and death stares. He ran away from embarrassment.

"Y/N, just one day", Lisa placed her hands around your shoulders, "Just one day without a fight, can you manage that?" She sighed. You ignored her and looked at Chaeyoung.

"Are you ok? Did he hurt you?" You asked, worryingly. "What about you Jisoo, are you also okay?" You asked.

"I'm fine, what about you Y/N?" Jisoo asked as she cupped your faced in a motherly passion.

"Don't worry about, what's important is that bastard didn't lay a hand on you" You looked at them both.

"Y/N what happened between you and him when Jisoo was injured?" Chaeyoung asked. You frowned. You didn't want her or anyone to know but you couldn't hide it anymore.

"Its nothing really. Dont worry about it" You smiled and brushed it off. Chaeyoung felt that your smile wasn't real. The wariness wasn't there but rather lies.

"Lisa, tell me the truth" Chaeyoung demanded. Lisa couldn't help but admit everything, Chaeyoung's presence of anger was enough to tell her everything.

"So yeah, that basically what happened. Sorry Y/N" Lisa apologised as she explained your secret to the both of them on your way home. Chaeyoung glared at but she also was worried about you. "I'll go on ahead and help Taeyeon set out the food, Jisoo, you wanna come?" Lisa asked.

"Yeah sure" She walked off with Lisa, leaving you alone with Chaeyoung.

"Listen Chaeyoung, I didn't mean to keep it a secret from you" You held your nape. "I just didn't want to worry anyone" You sighed, looking away. "I'm really sorry" You apologized. Chaeyoung didn't utter a word. There was a moment of silence until you spoke again. "Well um, enjoy your dinner. I have to go to work, I'll see you later" You walked away, leaving her by herself.

"Chaeyoung! Sinner's ready!" Lisa shouted from the dining room. Chaeyoung watch as you left and did not hesitate to make her way to eat.

"Since this is your last night here, I cooked some chicken up" Taeyeon then placed the chicken in the middle of the table.

"Seriously?!" Jisoo asked, her eyes glimmered at the sight of the chicken.
