[02 : TRAIN TO BUSAN]

SOHEE POV: 8 years ago
I sighed as I got up for school. It was the 2nd week of school and Hyunjin has bothered me every. Single. Day. I don't understand why he hates me so much... I really don't.

I went to the bathroom, got ready, and grabbed my bag. "I'm heading out ma!" I said. "Take some fruit with you." She said, handing me some sliced watermelon.

I smiled, "Thanks ma, I have to get going now I don't want to be late." I said. She nodded as I walked out. I walked to the bus stop and waited for the bus to arrive.

"Why didn't you wait for me 'Hee?" Changbin asked, sitting on the curb. "I didn't want to be late to school." I said. Changbin sighed, "I'm trying to look after you. I don't want that kid to beat you up again-"

"I'm fine." I said, kicking a rock. "Are you sure?" He asked. "Yeah I'm sure." I sighed, and sat next to him. "I don't know why he keeps bullying me... I did nothing wrong." I said softly.

Changbin frowned, "Maybe he's just taking his own anger out on you. Don't think too much." He said, ruffling my hair. I smiled a little and rested my head on his shoulder.

Changbin scoffed, "Ew get off!" He said, flicking my forehead. "Ah why can't you just be a caring brother?!" I asked, standing up. "Why can't I just blah blah." He mocked.

I groaned and stepped on the bus since it had just arrived. "You're so annoying!" I whined. "No you are!" He said sitting in the last seat. I glared at him and just stood in the back.

Suddenly Hyunjin walked on the bus. Looking gorgeous as usual. Why is he such a mean person? Those good looks are going to waste. He looked at me and put one hand in his pocket and the other on the bar in front of me.

I looked back, "There's other places to stand you know." I said. "I know but I want to stand here." He replied. I tried to walk to the front of the bus but he blocked my path. "Move." I said.

"Or?" He asked, kneeling down to my height. I pushed him out of the way and started walking to the front. Hyunjin grabbed me by my hair and threw me down. I groaned, "What's your problem?! I'm trying to stay away from you and you keep bothering me!"

"The problem is you! I don't like you! You're so annoying and stupid I can't stand it! Your existence bothers me!" He said, kicking me in the stomach. I held my stomach and whimpered as tears streamed down my face.

"God you're such a crybaby!" He groaned, kicking me again. "Hey knock it off." Changbin said, helping me up. "Whatever." Hyunjin scoffed, getting off of the bus.

I hugged Changbin and hid behind him. "I don't know why he keeps bullying me..." I sniffled, "I really don't." Changbin sighed, "I'll walk you to class okay?" He said softly. I nodded and hugged his arm.

Changbin walked me to class and Felix tapped the desk next to him. I sat down and he looked at me. "What's wrong?" He asked softly. I sighed, "Hyunjin-" "He's still bothering you? You need to tell a teacher or tell your parents Sohee" He said sternly.

I shook my head, "That will only make it worse." Felix sighed as I laid my head down on the desk. Felix played with my hair and laid his head down as well.

Felix stopped playing with my hair and stared at me. "What were you going to ask me the other day?" He asked. "Don't worry about it." I said. Felix nodded and held out his hand under the desk.

I smiled a little and held his hand. "Ooo~" My new friend, Ryujin teased. I rolled my eyes, "It's normal for friends to hold hands." I said.

"Uh huh, friends." She said sarcastically. Felix giggled and just brushed it off. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.

-

I walked into the cafeteria and looked for a place to sit. Suddenly, Hyunjin knocked down my plate of food. "What was that for?!" I asked. "I just felt like it." He shrugged.

I groaned and flipped him off before storming away. Hyunjin grabbed my hand and slapped me. The slap was loud enough for everyone to hear. I held my face and tears formed in my eyes.

"Leave me alone!" I said, walking around him. He tripped me up and I fell face first into my food. I groaned and got up but he kicked me back down. "Why are you doing this to me...?" I sniffled.

"Because I want too." He said. I stood up and he punched me. By then everyone was staring but no one dared to do anything. I covered my face and just stayed on the floor. "Awe is Sohee crying like the little baby she is?" Hyunjin asked.

I tried to contain my sobs but eventually I just started sobbing on the floor. Ryujin and Felix put their food down and ran over to me and helped me up. "Oh you poor thing.." Ryujin frowned, wiping my face. "Let's take you to the nurse." Felix said.

HYUNJIN POV:
"Why'd you do that?!" My friend Beomgyu asked. I put my hands in my pocket, "I don't know..." I said, looking down. "You're really a jerk." Yeonjun scoffed.

Suddenly the principal walked in. "Hwang Hyunjin come with me." He said sternly.

SOHEE POV:
I walked in the house with Changbin and my mom sighed. "Sohee.. why didnt you tell me you were getting bullied?" She asked, putting band aids on my face.

I didn't say anything, I just stayed quiet. My mom sighed, "Look 'Hee, I think it's best that we move schools or just move in general." I just nodded.

Changbin groaned, "that's no fair! Why do I have to move schools bec-" Mom shoved a piece of bread in his mouth to shut him up. "We don't have to move Ma." I said. "We're moving and that's final I'll look for a place now.

1 WEEK LATER

Felix hugged me as tears streamed down his face. "No lixxie please don't cry... I'm sure you can visit sometime." I said softly. Han and Ryujin hugged me as well. "Maybe you guys can come over this weekend!" I said, trying to cheer them up.

Felix just kept crying. "Come on dude it's not like we'll never see her again." Han reassured. Felix sniffled and nodded. "Well I have to go home early so I'll call you guys later." I said. "Bye 'Hee." Ryujin said, hugging me again.

I went to the office to wait for my mom. I saw Hyunjin sitting in a chair not to far from me with his hands in his hair. I tried to avoid drawing attention to myself but I kicked over my water bottle and he looked up.

I mentally sighed. "Why are you in here?" He asked. "I'm moving today." I said. "Like moving houses or-" "Houses, schools, even cities." I said. "Why?" He asked. "You." I said, as I saw my moms car in the parking lot.

"I should get going." I said, grabbing my things. Hyunjin grabbed my wrist and I looked up at him, "Let go." I demanded. "No don't leave I'm sorry." He said. I snatched my hand away and began walking out.

He grabbed my wrist again, "Sohee I'm genuinely sorry I-" "You're wasting my time." I groaned, snatching my hand away again and running outside.

HYUNJIN POV:
I was going to say something but I just closed my mouth. I put my hands in my pocket and looked down. "Hwang, your parents are here." The principal said. I kept looking down and nodded.

SOHEE POV:
I sighed and held Changbins hand as we stepped on the train to Busan.
