"I guess what really breaks me is that I want to be the one who makes you happy, but I'm not."

- Jihyun's POV -

I woke up to my bedroom door slamming open. When will this end? Everyday I hear the same shit, and it never ends.

I hate it. I hate it so much, that it makes me want to punch a brick wall. Anger hits me frequently.

"Jihyun! Here's your uniform, iron it yourself. I have no time for it, fix yourself before you look like shit" Eomma said.

Of course you don't have time, all you care about is drinking your stupid alcohol. I rolled my eyes, "Whatever" I mumbled.

Eomma's eyes widened, did I say something wrong? She came up to me and slapped my face. "Don't talk back to me, young lady!" She yelled.

Here it goes again, another day in a hell hole. There's never a day that Eomma physical abuses me, also with Appa. Their both drunk alcoholics that never stop drinking.

It pisses me off so much. I talked back, "I'm not a 'young lady', in fact I'm your daughter. Get your facts right mum, it's like you're not my mother" i retorted, walking out the bedroom.

I headed to the bathroom to get changed. I'm used to all the abusing, bruises are scars on my body. They never leave.

Looking at it everyday makes me cry, I've always been insecure about my body shape, my scars, my bruises and everything else.

I was finished getting ready, and I went to my room to get my school bag. I went downstairs and saw Eomma and Appa sitting on the table eating breakfast.

I looked at them, and rolled my eyes. "Don't roll your eyes at us!" Appa shouted, closing his newspaper.

He stood up, coming closer to me. He put his hand out to hit me in the face until Eomma stopped him.

Wow, first time you save your daughter. I'm not surprised.

"Honey, don't hit her. I already did." Eomma stated. I left the house, walking to the bus stop.

As I put my headphones in, I saw my best friend, Woohyun. "Ah, look who it is! My best friend, Jihyun. Good Morning!" He smiled.

Woohyun is my best friend now, after my previous best friend left me years ago..

I smiled, "Morning, Woohyun". He always knew how to make me smile. I trust him a lot, but I don't have the guts to tell him what happens at home.

I don't show him that I am a person who is depressed inside, who is fragile. Woohyun does know, that I am a cold hearted person.

He smiled at me until he gasped. It shocked me for a second, "Yah, what happened?!" I asked.

Woohyun pointed at me, "Wae?" I mumbled. "W-what happened to your cheek!?" He gasped, kind of shouting in shock.

"What do you mean?!" I said, looking through the camera on my phone.

I clicked the camera application and saw that I had a big bruise on my cheek. Probably when Eomma slapped me this morning, argh.

I had no choice but to lie. "I fell down the stairs last night" I lied.

"You never fall down the stairs, you're not clumsy".

He had a point, I'm never clumsy. He knows me too well.

"Well, shit happens and I don't know how" I stated, and he nodded.

After, he went back to his old self. Woohyun kept stating how he loves this band called Girls Day. I kept nodding, but inside I didn't really care.
