Cloudy (Kim Yugyeom)

Eunhye's P.O.V 

I had managed to find sanctuary in a park that was close yet far enough from Yugyeom's home and had seated myself on a wooden bench. 

As soon as I had sat down, I began to cry my heart out, not caring how weird or suspicious I looked and ignored the looks that came my way by the incoming bystanders. 

Somewhere in the middle, an elementary kid had offered me a tissue and I thanked him with a snotty face and blew my nose out in the tissue. 

I now sat quietly and drained as the faucet I had inside of me was now empty of tears, and the park was now empty as it was now dinner time.

I sniffed loudly,  scaring away the pigeon that was perched on the other end of the bench, aggressively flapping its wings and flying away from me. 

I can't help but replay the events of the day over and over in my head. First the fight with Jiwon, then the argument with mom and her kicking me out of the house, then seeing Eunha in Yugyeom's house to Yugyeom basically calling me a burden to live with. 

I stare at the blank screen off my phone, wondering if anyone out there was thinking of me. My phone was dead and I did not have a charger with me so I was somewhat limited from my abilities. 

Despite how she treated me, I still craved for my mom's hugs and comfort right now, especially since my head was pounding from all that crying. 

I did not carry much cash with me as I used the debit card my parents had given me, but I wasn't sure if it was still working now. Considering my mom might cut it off. And besides, even if it was working, I mainly used it through mobile pay, and since my phone was dead, that was completely useless. 

 I know I couldn't just spend the night out so I collected myself and reached for my wallet in my bag and re-counted the money in it. I had enough money to call for a taxi to get somewhere close and maybe even get something from the convenience store, but I couldn't recall anyone living nearby other than Yugyeom, and he was very much out of the option.

However there was one place in my mind and I stood up from the bench, my carrier in my hand and my backpack on my shoulders. I walked away with my finger crossed that they would accept me, just for tonight. 

I walked until I was standing by the road and I after a couple of tries, I managed to successfully bag a taxi and sat in it, telling the driver the direction i am headed towards. I thanked the driver and paid him when I reached my destination and watched as the taxi retreated into nothing. 

Taking a deep yet hopeful breath, I walked towards the door and rang the bell, waiting for it to be opened by someone. 

Not long after I heard the click of the lock open from the inside and the door opened as a head popped out. 

"Eunhye?" Aeri said and there was evident confusion on her face as she saw me standing at her doorstep. 

"Hi," I said, giving a little wave. 

"What are you doing here?" Aeri asked, stepping out a bit more. Aeri most definitely noticed the carrier with me but made no comment on it, thankfully. 

"Are you in trouble?" She asked instead, concern over her face.

I pursed my lips and said, "I know its late and it's bothersome but do you and your mom mind if I stay here for the night. I understand if you both aren't comfortable, I'll just go find somewhere else."

"Babe? Who's there?" A male's voice asked from inside and seconds later a male emerged into my view. 

To be more precise, Doyeon.
