Life hadn't always been easy. My mum died whilst giving birth to me. My dad left because he couldn't handle looking after a child. I was raised by my aunt. She was my mum's sister and she treated me like her own child. I wasn't from a poor family, in fact my family owned their own business and were rolling in the money. I didn't like that. It was nice getting nice clothes and shoes but I hated it. I never got to work hard for my money because I was a woman, I shouldn't have to work hard to get what I want. My aunt recently married a man who seemed alright at the start but he was horrible. If my aunt wasn't around he would feed her kids but leave me in the dark. My cousin had to sneak me food at night time just so I wouldn't starve. That's where my best friend Kim Namjoon comes into the picture. We were studying at the same high school and he was the only person I could tell everything to. He would even bring me my own packed lunch to fill me up because he knew I hadn't been given breakfast and I wouldn't be given dinner. I was very thankful of him.

"Jeon Y/N, did he starve you again?"

"It's nothing new. My body has gotten used to it now"

"How is your aunt not seeing all of this?"

"She's in love. I can't ruin that for her. She took care of me, the east I could do is let her be happy"

"And when will you be happy?"

"Whenever I move out, like when I go to college"

"You're gonna wait 4 years just for yourself to be happy"

"Yes. If that means my aunt gets to be happy then so be it"

"Whatever you say. Eat up. You need some food in you; your practically bones at this point"

"Alright"

We sat on the grass and started to eat our lunch. I sat there thinking what my life would be like if i had my own place. I would certainly eat that's for sure.

~ 4 years later ~

"Jeon Y/N!, we are finally out of high school!"

"Someone's happy"

"I am. Because you finally get the happiness you deserve"

"Oh right"

"You don't sound too happy"

"I am but I can't help but think how my cousin and aunt will cope in that household, what if they get malnourished because of him"

"Don't think like that ok. Your aunt will be fine. You can always FaceTime and ring her whenever you feel the need to"

"You're right. What are you doing this weekend, my aunt wants to throw a going away party for us after graduation. Your family is invited of course"

"I'll be there"

"Great!, arrive at 6:30pm"

"Ok. See you there"

The graduation dinner was going well. I had to be given a plate of food just so my uncle wouldn't be caught out but I could feel his glares in the back of my head. Namjoon was sat next to me and kept holding my hand to reassure me that someone would always be there for me.

"Y/N, are you excited to go to the same university as Namjoon?"

"Very much Ms Kim. I can't wait. I know he'll be me up to date with my studying"

"Yes. I'll make sure she gets every meal in her every day"

I looked at Namjoon with a gasp as he highlighted the word 'every' in the sentence.

"Please do. She's gotten so skinny over the last year"

"Ms Jung with all do respect, have you only just noticed your niece being skinny. Have you been blind the last 4 years?"

"I'm not sure I follow"

"Ask your husband why your niece is skinny or did you know that he wasn't giving her food and only gave to her cousin. The poor girl came to school starving and tired because she didn't have the energy in her"

"Namjoon-"

"I'm sorry mum, but I can't keep quiet anymore. Y/N is my best friend, heck I love her so much and it hurts to see her so broken after everything she's been through"

I put my napkin on the table and stood up.

"He's telling the truth. I didn't mention it because you were so happy to love someone that I didn't want to ruin it"

"Enough. Namjoon go help Y/N pack the last of her stuff. She can spend the last couple of night before university at our house. We'll sit here and talk"

I grabbed Namjoon's hand and walked up to my room. As we entered I shut the door.

"I'm sor-"

I cut him off by kissing him. He didn't respond for a while but he soon kissed me back. After a few minutes we pulled apart.

"Don't ever be sorry for standing up for me. You, Kim Namjoon, are my saviour and I am forever grateful to have you in my life. You're my best friend and I don't know what I would've done if you weren't in my life"

"It was true what I said. My heart ached very time you showed up to school starved and broken. I wished we did something sooner"

"Its ok. I'm free. I'm going to eat like my life depends on. I get to wake up every day and I know that I get three meals a day and I know that you'll be there to make sure I do"

"Good thing we're roommates then, my queen"

"Yep. My saviour"
