You bid your farewell to jinyoung as you both went separate ways. He turned to the left as you turned right proceeding towards your house. You wish you could spend some more time with him but unfortunately he has his football practice after school. The loneliness surrounds you as you walk at a slow pace. You don't want to go home. That place suffocates you, it wasn't home it was just pieces of bricks attached together where your own family feels like some strangers.

You sighed standing in front of the huge metallic gate kim, the guard smiled at you opening the door you bowed to him walking inside the villa. Your face immediately brightened up the moment you heard your dog lexi barking and within seconds she was all upon you licking your face. You giggled uncontrollably.

"My baby missed me aw" You said snuggling inside her golden fur and kissing the top of her head. She barks as if it was a 'yes'. You felt happy at least someone was there to greet you once you're back.

"My baby you haven't eaten yet?" You frowned looking at his empty plate. "Wait once I get changed I will feed you okay and we will go on a walk together" You said enthusiastically and she barked again. You stood up patting her head and heading inside.

The same unwelcoming environment sets, your eyes fell on your mom typing something in her macbook. You closed the door hoping that she would notice your presence. You saw your dad reading a book laying on the couch.

"I am home" You said slowly, kicking your shoes off and making your way towards your room. "Did you got your maths test back?" You stopped on your spot feeling tension rising in your veins. Your dad fixed his glasses, setting his book on the coffee table.

"I asked you something, don't you know how to speak?" His voice was stern as it came piercing through your heart. You turned around taking out the test which you got back today. Clenching the paper in your hands you moved forward feeling your palms getting sweaty all of the sudden.

Handing him the paper you looked down playing with your hands. Your heart accelerates, feeling adrenaline rushing in your veins. "What's this?" He asked, his voice sounding dangerous as ever.

"I asked what the fuck is this" He dared to curse his voice raised he was practically yelling, you flinched feeling your tears brimming your eyes. "Seven out of thirty?? You must be kidding me!" He said, slamming the sheet of paper on the table.

"I need an answer y/n!! What happened, the cat got your tongue??" He yelled, his voice stern and rough. "Why do you go to school?? Wearing these mini skirts and wearing makeup, to impress boys???" He dared to talk like that again.

"I tried okayyy, and I wore what I wanted! Do not tell me what to do" You have had enough you replied back your voice breaking and you swallowed the lump in your throat. "Dare to raise your voice in front of me again and wait for the consequences" You locked your eyes with him. They were burning red with anger.

"So what? What if I raised my voice?? Do you even call-" You got cut off by his hand pressing tightly on your face, he just slapped you. Your mom finally stood up from his chair stopping him from giving you another. "Honey stop! She is your daughter" Your mom calms him down as you stand there with this stinging pain in your face.

"Look at her talking back like that!! She deserves it" He didn't feel guilty for what he did just now and nor he will in future. "You know what fuck you both I am done with trying the perfect daughter you want me to become for the sake of your reputation… I am done with this shit" You said, grabbing your test paper and rushing to your room.

Slamming the door behind you locked it. Plopping on your bed you bursted into tears. Your heart aches so bad, you sobbed clenching your chest hoping that the pain would go away. Your eyes poured out. You want to cry, you want to hug someone right now, you want that comfort but here you were hugging your pillow.

15 minutes passed…

You stared at the ceiling with a million thoughts in your head. Tossing on the bed you checked the time it was 10:30 pm. No one has called you for the dinner yet, how stupid you were to expect something. Grabbing your phone you dialed his number.

Jinyoung:Β  hello

You:Β  heyy

Jinyoung:Β  What's wrong?? What's with that droopy voice? Are you sick??

You:Β  can we meet?

Jinyoung:Β  Yes, sure sweetheart. Let's meet at the park in 15 minutes.

You:Β  yes good.

You stood up from your bed grabbing your cargo pants and the jacket. You dressed yourself grabbing your phone. Getting out from the back door you knew Kim was in the front door and would tell everyone that I am out this late.

The night was chilly as you waited for your best friend. Feeling a pair of hands on your shoulders you turned around with a smile. "Hey" He said, his hair slightly wet, he must have showered before coming here. "I missed you" You didn't do anything, you jumped in his arms holding him tight. He was taken back from your sudden behavior.

"Girl we just met few hours ago and you missed me?" He said hugging you tightly gently patting your head with his warm hands. "What's wrong y/n?" He asked in a soft voice, no matter how hard you try you couldn't hide anything from him.

"I don't know what's wrong" You dug your face in the crook of his neck. "I just want to cry" You felt a tight lump in your throat never letting him go. "Sweetheart cry as much as you want" He said cupping the side of your neck and kissing the crown of your head. You both sat on the bench nearby. You kept on hugging him, he whispered some comforting words giving you kisses and hugging you tight.

"Is this because of him again?" He asked, bringing the flashbacks in your mind again. "Who?" You asked pretending to not know. "Your dad," He stated, looking up at him. He knows you too well.

"Let's not talk about it now" You avoided the topic clinging in his arms again. It was almost 12am the streets were empty, just the street lights were on just the two of you.

"It's getting cold" He said, blowing out the fog from his mouth. "Aren't you cold sweetheart?" He said, wrapping his overcoat over you to make sure you didn't catch a cold.

"Thank you" You mumbled startling him with a kiss on his cheek. "I am the best I know" He said proudly lifting you up and setting you down on the ground.

"Let's head home, it's getting late" He said, holding your hand in his large ones. "Come I will drop you" He said.

"I don't wanna go there" You pouted only to make you chuckle. "Come here I will give a piggyback" He said, taking your hands and guiding them to his broad shoulders. He lifted you up.

"Damn you're heavy as a gorilla" He teased, making you frown. "Oh really then why did you lift me up in the first place?" You said bitterly.

"Chill I am kidding, you're light as a feather" He said, making you smile playfully. You hugged him from behind drifting to slumber inhaling Cologne. He was your best friend indeed.
