After a few minutes of walking we had reached a park. I din't really see people around.
He slowly guided me to a bench.
As I made myself comfortable, he sat beside me. I could sense how curious he might be but he insisted on keeping quiet.
I was still sobbing but my sobs were more like a whisper now. All the energy I had was now drained and I did not have any strength to cry.
"I'm sorry, I spoilt the mood.",I apologized.
"Nah, it's okay, it wasn't really your fault."

We just sat there staring at nothing in specific. The silence between us comforted me.
It was soon getting dark and we had to head back. I'm was not ready to face Ms.Choi.
Growing up in the orphanage, I had sure come to be afraid of her.
She was stern and her punishments were harsh.
"Let's head back."
He din't reply instead just nodded and got out of his place. The warmth we shared was now gone.
I slowly moved out of my place.

The walk back was just filled with silence.
Luckily Ms.Choi did not bother to ask any questions.
Was it because I was with Jungkook?

I slowly headed towards my room. I din't look back at him. I did not know what to say.
Sorry, for spoiling his day?
Or thank you, for helping me?

I entered my room. The familiar smell filling my nostrils. I moved towards my bed. Lying down under the sheets felt good.

I woke to the sun peeking through the curtains, illuminating the room with it's light.
I got out of bed, wincing when my feet came in contact with the cold floor.
I did not remember falling asleep. Did I even have dinner?
My stomach grumbled as though answering the question for me.
I dragged my feet to brush my teeth.
I saw to it that I did not wake soo-ji up and then quickly went on to shower.

I step out drying myself. My hands move on their own accord. I have been doing this for years.
I step out the washroom, now feeling more fresh.

I still need food. I was starving.
I quickly make my way to the kitchen and to my dismay I find no one.
What time was it?
I take a look at the clock 5:00am.
Ahh I'm too early.
It's okay I can just grab something to eat and head out earlier.

I make myself a sandwich. Munching on it occasionally.
It's about time everyone starts waking up.
I walk back to my room.
Soo-ji was now in the washroom. I quickly knock on the door and let her know that I'm going to be heading out earlier.

I pick my bag and leave the room.

The walk to school was peaceful and there was no one to bother my thoughts.
I enter the gates. Bowing towards the watchman.
I walk inside the building. The light are still off. I walk towards the switches, pushing the buttons slowly. One after another.

I head towards my classroom. My eyes momentarily searching for my seat.
I slowly walk towards it, placing my bag and my books on the table.
This feels different. I have never seen this classroom so silent. I have gotten used to the little whispers that usually fill the classroom.

Sitting there I could easily hear the sound of the wind.
I sit there in peace just gazing outside the window.

My thoughts are interrupted by the opening of the door.

I thought I was the only one here and I din't see anyone walking past the gates?

I turn around to only be met with a group of boys. There was about four of them and they were wearing the school uniform. Their hair out of place and their shirts weren't tucked in. Their ties hanging loosely around their collar.
They looks much stronger than me. Huh they obviously are.

"Look who is here," one of them comments.
"Wow she looks pretty," another says.

They walk in.
I stand up. My legs moves on their own. I press myself against the wall, as a way to keep maximum distance between us.

"You have got pretty eyes"

They probably are younger than me but I have no strength to defend myself. I have once again become the same helpless me.

They walk closer pushing me against the wall. I hold on to the hem of my skirt. Pressing it with as much power I can.
Do something Nabi.
They keep moving closer.
One of them comes much closer to me. His hands on the wall so that I'm trapped in between them.
He bends a little, his head now close to my neck.
My head couldn't process anything. I need to do something.
My hands come in contact with his muscular shoulder. I try my best to push him away but he was too strong.
I whimper under his touch.
I try to scream but my voice comes out more like a squeak.

"Your getting me excited."

He places his hands on my jaw. Pulling it up so that he could get a look of my face.

The others just stand there watching, laughing and giggling at me.
No one has entered the classroom yet.
It was almost time for people to start entering.
I'll have to hold on just a little longer.

The guy now comes closer to my face. His eyes not leaving my lips.
I try my best to get away from him but I'm too weak. His grip on me only tightens.

"Now I think it's time you stop this," a voice yells from the door.
