Chapter 10

I'm such a for taking so long for a chapter.

I tried making this chapter long. Took me an entire day to finish. IT"S THE CHRISTMAS BREAK TOO BTW. I'LL WRITE MORE.

Jung Eunji's POV

I stood rooted to ground watching Bomi's unconscious body being held by Chorong. This is happening again. I'm not going to lose her again.

I walked over to the crowd around Chorong and Bomi. “Move.” I said, as I stood behind Chorong. Everyone, including Chorong was looking at me, confused. I tried so hard not to break down in front of everyone.

“I said ing move now.” I looked sternly into Chorong eyes. Her eyes showed fear, but I couldn't care less now. She slowly moved to the side allowing me to pick Bomi up. I picked her up and looked at her unconscious but peaceful face.

I felt tears b in my eyes. I was angry. She doesn't deserve all the she has been through. I walked out of the gym with her in my hands and went straight out of school.

I placed Bomi gently, laid down onto the back seat of my car and went to the driver's seat. I fished out my phone from my bag to check the time, only to drop it. I bent over to get my phone. “Damn what a ty day.” I sighed as I inspected my phone for any damages.

“Yeah, quite a ty day, huh?” a voice from beside me made me jumped on my seat and scared the living daylights out of me. “HOLY SHI- Oh my god Naeunnie! You scared the ing out of me!” Naeun was sitting on the passenger seat with her seat belt on looking at me curiously, kinda like a cute cat. “How did you– How did I not– What the– you know what, never mind.”

“Are you bringing Bomi-unnie back to the penthouse? Can I tag along? I'm worried.” Naeun asked and I merely nodded before starting the engine of the car. I looked back at Bomi to see her sleeping soundly. Wow, I really lost my cool in the gym. I sighed. I shouted at Park Chorong for god's sake, I need to apologize to her.

“Unnie, aren't we going?” Naeun asked me, with her curious and wide eyes. Damn she looks so innocent. I unconciously lifted my palms and place them on her cheeks, squishing her cheeks. “Yes, we are going Naeunnie~” I said.

Naeun's eyes widen further in shock and I sat still after I realize what I've just done. Her face was so close to mine, and I couldn't help but to glance down to her pink and plump lips. I felt my face going closer and closer to hers, as her eyes shut slowly.

“Urgh.” Bomi grunted from the back seat and I immediately pulled myself away from Naeun. I felt my face flush so hard as I looked outside the window. “Urgh. W-what happened?” Bomi asked from behind. I looked behind to face Bomi, but not missing the blush on Naeun's face as she looked down to her feet.

“U-u-uhhh... You went unconscious when you we pushed just now at gym. Are you okay?” I asked her.

“Why does it smell like vanilla here" It smells like medicine too. Urgh bad headache. Ow! There's a huge bump at the back of my head. Might as well get another stupid scar.” She whined. I rolled my eyes and drove the car out of the school.

“Hey Naeunnie! What are you doing here? Gonna be my nurse?” Bomi grinned and wink at Naeun.

“Shut up Yoon Bomi and just lay back. Damn, you were much more nicer when you were quiet and unconscious.” I grumbled, earning a heavenly laugh from the blonde beside me. I looked at her and gave her a big smile, making her blush. Hah, she's way too cute.

Park Chorong's POV

I never saw Bomi and Eunji in school after the incident at the gym. Actually I didn't see Naeunnie for the entire day too. Now I'm sitting on my couch, bothered about what happened on second period. I need to apologize to Yoon Bomi. I mean I don't like her but she was helping me and Stupid Suho just had to push her down.

I sighed. I feel responsible for what Suho did. Urgh. I stood up and walk out to my patio. “Chorong-noona!” I looked over to see my 10 year old neighbour, Eunkwang, waving at me from his backyard, grinning. I smiled at him. He's so adorable.

“Hey Eunkwang,” I said as I walked over to the fence. “My mom wanted me to pass you something for you and your dad!” He said adorably, before going into the house and brought out a gigantic plate of blueberry pie.

“Wow. It's heavy.” I chuckled out as he passed the plate to me. He smiled then waved goodbye before going back to playing on his trampoline. I struggled my way back into the house and placed the plate on the dining.

I stared at it and sighed. Dad won't be coming home this entire week as he has yet another business trip to Phuket. How am I supposed to eat this all alone? Damn, I'm too lonely. I took out my phone text Naeun.

To: NaeunTheInnocent

Son Naeun! Where are you? I'm lonely :((

I placed my phone on the coffee table and stared at nothing, contemplating my life. Then my phone buzzed.

From: NaeunTheInnocent

I'm here unnie!

She replied and texted me an address. I grinned before heading upstairs to change. Once I felt like I looked amazing decent enough, I left the house and brought the pie with me. After around 5 minutes, I reached where the GPS led me to. Wow, it was actually a walking distance.

It was this humongous building that looked expensive as hell. There was even valet service. What on earth is Naeun doing here? I left my car with valet, not forgetting the pie, and took the elevator up to the top floor. I knocked on the door and waited. I heard a noise so I tried opening the door. To my surprise, it wasn't locked.

I went in and looked around the penthouse but no one was there. Naeun must have sent me the wrong address. I was about to leave when I saw Naeun's bag on the couch.

“Naeun-ah?” I look around. I went upstairs and saw many doors in an aisle. Wow, whoever lived her much be rich. Then I heard shuffling of feet and a loud bang followed by a groan from one of the rooms. I walked down the aisle towards the room.

I reached out for the doorknob but before I could someone opened the door from inside. I looked up and couldn't help but widen my eyes. There, standing infront of me, was Yoon Bomi in a short white tank top, which showed part of her abs, and with only an underwear on.

“Chorong-sshi?” Bomi said my name and I realised I was staring. At her body. I felt a blush creep up. Bomi smirked, which made me roll my eyes, but I stopped when Bomi suddenly grunted and held her head.

“Are you okay, Bomi-sshi?” I asked worriedly before holding her arms, preventing from falling.

“Yeah, I just need to lay down for a bit.” She said in pain before turning around to head towards her bed. She grunted and was about to fall again so I held her. Damn I felt so responsible for Bomi's state now.

I helped her to her bed and laid her down. I touched her forehead and she was having such a bad fever.

“Omo...” I placed a blanket on her and left the room. Porridge is the best food for the sick. I went to the kitchen to make the porridge when I saw a post-it on the kitchen island.

Bomi Unnie! Eunji-unnie and I went to buy groceries. There was barely any food at home. We will get ingredients for samgyetang because it's healthy and Eunji-unnie said you need strength. We'll be back soon!

P.S. Eunji-unnie told me to put this post-it in the kitchen because she was sure you would look for food once you wake up

― Naeunnie :)

Wow... since when was Naeun so close to Bomi and Eunji. I guess I could say I'm not surprised since Naeun is such a nice girl. I smiled to myself before heading to the cupboards. I look into them.

Whoa. Naeun wasn't kidding. They really don't cook much at home. There are eggs, bacon and rice but nothing else. I took out the rice and eggs and started making the porridge. Eunji and Naeun are idiots to make samgyetang for someone who's ill. I guess me being at home alone helped me in the motherly department.

After I was done with the porridge, I looked around for a bowl, but there was seriously no bowl. After around five minutes of intense searching, I found one somewhere deep inside a dusty cupboard. It was a cute pink plastic bowl with flowers and some cute cartoon animations. I saw some faded initials at the side but I didn't bother about it.

I washed the bowl and poured the porridge in it before bringing it to Bomi's room. I may hate her, but I'm not evil enough to leave her alone with such a bad fever. There was once Eunkwang was ill, and Mrs. Seo wasn't home so I had to care of him.

When I went into the room, Bomi was fidgeting on the bed and she was sweating like mad. I placed the bowl on the table and brought a cloth along with me to wipe off her sweat. As I was about to wipe her sweat off, Bomi whispered so fairly, “Please don't leave me. Don't leave me too...” and tears were flowing out of her eyes.

Something in my heart felt pain for her. Who left her? Who created such a pain for her that she cries in her sleep? “I'm not going to leave you...” I unconsciously whispered out to her. It came out so suddenly that I didn't even know why I said that.

But as soon as I said that, she stopped fidgeting and her breathing steadied. I sighed and looked at her sleeping. She looked so peaceful compared to when she was having that bad dream. I was about to leave when she suddenly whispered, “Daddy... don't go. Please...”

I looked at her in pity as I left the room.

Yoon Bomi's POV

“Unnie! Eunji and I are going out! We'll be back in an hour.” I heard Naeun say in my sleep. Well, I was trying sleep. My head was spinning so I didn't bother replying Naeun and continued covering my entire body with a blanket.

“I don't think she's awake. We'll just leave a note for her and leave it in the kitchen, I'm pretty sure she would head to the kitchen for food once she wakes up.” I heard Eunji say. I would've rolled my eyes if my eyes weren't closed.

“O-okay E-eunji-unnie...” I heard Naeun stutter out. I never thought much about it as I heard my room door shut closed and then the main door. I felt so exhausted from today but I just couldn't fall asleep.

After around 15 minutes, I heard rustling outside my room. They must be back. I sighed. I just can't sleep. I got up and looked for my sleeping pills. I popped two pills into my mouth. “Now, where's my advil...” I looked around for Advil so that it can help my head from hurting.

As I was looking for it, I suddenly felt blurry. I held on to my table, causing my lamp and some books to fall, and I held my forehead. Damn it was burning.

I went towards the door to get advil from the kitchen. As soon as I opened it, I saw the person I thought I wold unever see ever in front of my bedroom door. “Chorong-sshi?” Everything was still blurry, but I could she her checking me out. Hah. I smirked to myself.

Then suddenly everything became way too blurry. My head was spinning and everything was spinning.

I could hear Chorong's faint voice filled with worry. “Are you okay, Bomi-sshi?” Eventhough my head was down, I smiled to myself. I guess even the ice queen can be nice.

“Yeah.” I turned around to head to my bed. “I just need to lay down for a bit.” I grunted out. My legs failed me, and I was about to fall when I felt a slender pair of arms catch me. I felt tingles all over my body, but that left as soon as the touch disappear once I was on the bed. I unknowingly groaned to myself.

I felt my blanket being placed over me and the scent of vanilla filled my senses once again. Then, I out.

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Glass splattered everywhere. Everything was in a blur as the car spun uncontrollably. I was still in a daze and the 11 year-old me couldn't comprehend what was happening. Just moments before, my father and I were driving in the rain to a restaurant to celebrate me turning 11. We were singing in the car happily until I nudged him unknowingly hard and we heard a loud horn.

I felt nothing as the car kept spinning. The car stopped moving, but I could tell that the car was overturned. The smell of gas leaking. I opened my eyes. Blood everywhere. On glass shreds. On the broken door. On the dashboard. Everywhere. And on my father. He was hugging and holding on to me tightly. He protected me.

I don't know how long I was there under the hold of my father, but I heard shouts and I felt my father getting pulled out of the car, followed by me. Once I was pulled out by an unknown stranger, I sat up and looked at my father who was on the ground beside me.

Many were surrounding us, murmuring and I could hear sirens not too far away. I looked blankly at my dad who was on the ground, unable to move, his chest moving up and down so quickly, trying to catch his breath.

“B-b-bo...m-mi...y-ah...” My father tried speaking. I looked at him as he looked straight into my eyes, He gave a weak smile. “M-my p-pabo g-g-girl...” He said as he shut his eyes slowly. Then, everything finally registered into my head.

“DADDY! DADDY!” I crawled over to my father quickly, placing both my palms on his cheeks, so that he could look at me again. “DADDY! PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME TOO DADDY! I'M SORRY FOR EVERYTHING. I'M A BAD GIRL BUT I ILL CHANGE. I PROMISE!” Tears started falling down my cheeks. But he never opened his eyes. “Please... just... don't...” I tried to hold in my cries. Why did God have to do this to me again? “Please don't leave me too...”.

I jerked up and opened my eyes. I looked around, sweating. I was in my room. I'm safe. I sighed and rested my face on my palms. Why does it always feel so real? I felt my eyes sting and I could feel the tears starting to come out.

Why does it happen to me? What did I do to deserve all this pain?

I looked at my arms and saw the faded scars that I always put makeup on so that it would be hidden. And I felt the anger rise in me. I looked away from the scars and my attention was drawn to something I have not seen for 6 years. The pink bowl. And I finally broke.
