"Why are you even friends with him?"

"What's the good in him?"

"How could you like someone like him, I mean c'mon.. He's so dumb."

"He can't even speak, why are you friends with him?"

Those are what people say to me about Hoeseung.

My only response is

"Shut the hell up!"

Whether if my close friends ask that, or my schoolmates, I always have the same response for them.

Hoeseung considers me as his best friend, and I consider him as my best friend.

Recently, he opened up to me about stuff that's been going on with him and I honestly had no words come out of my mouth when he opened up about the abuse going on at home.

Hoeseung and I have been friends for three years now, and it's the first time he's ever told me something this personal.

But is it bad that I kind of expected this?

He's always quiet in class, he doesn't talk a lot—especially to me— so what do I expect? I knew something was wrong with him, he just wasn't opening up about it.

I knew that when he called me to the nearest park in our neighborhood at 2AM that something was wrong.

"What's wrong, Hoeseung?" I called out as I was rushing to sit beside him on the swings.

He huffed a sigh and avoided my gaze.

I tried to look at his face but he would look elsewhere. I sighed and stared ahead while pushing back and forth on the swings.

"You know you can always tell me." I mumbled, hoping he'd hear.

Hoeseung finally gathered up his courage and decided to speak to me.

"My mom's been hurting me for the past year."

I looked at him with wide eyes. "What? And you told no one?!" I asked, almost yelling.

He didn't answer and looked down.

I realized how angry I sounded so I tried to calm down a bit and steadied my breathing.

"Sorry for yelling.. Stay at my house for a while. You can't be living in a toxic household."

He looked up, his eyes looked as if he's been crying.

"No, what would your parents think? Plus my mom would kill me if she finds out I'm not home in the morning."

I shook my head. "My parents wouldn't mind, and about your mom.. We'll find a way. Okay? It's better to stay safe instead of suffering." I paused and continued.

"Why would you keep it in?"

He averted his gaze to the pond next to the swings.

"Mom said if I told anyone, she'd punish me really bad."

I widened my eyes and examined Hoeseung's face.

Without realization, I grabbed his hand and I interlocked it together with his.

He looked at our hands then back up at me, but good thing he didn't let go cause that'd be really awkward.

I tried to say something but nothing came out of my mouth.

"Y/N, I really like you." He said shyly.

I smiled and squeezed his hand.

"Hah, jokes on you. I like you more." I smiled and we both sat like this while swinging slowly.

"Woah why is Y/N and Hoeseung holding hands?" A girl whispered to her male friend as me and Hoeseung stepped into the bus, our hands together.

"I don't know, maybe Y/N turned to an introvert just like her boyfriend Hoeseung."

They giggled but I heard it all.

"Hey, will you shut up? Why are you assuming stuff you don't know. You judge people too easily, it's stupid." I hissed at them and they stayed quiet.

"Do you think this is a good idea?" He whispered, referring to our hands.

I nodded. "Why? Are you ashamed?"

He shook his head quickly.

"No, I'm just worried I might ruin your reputation."

I looked at him and halted my steps in the middle of the aisle.

"What're you saying your gonna ruin my reputation? Helllll I'm glad I met someone like you, don't say such things."

He stayed quiet and I dragged him to an empty seat. I sat in the window, and he sat nearest to the aisle. We sat together as we continued to hold hands.

Now, Hoeseung debuted as a member in N.Flying. He has loving members who care about him deeply and he can show off the talent he's been hiding.

I sat down watching Music Bank, and seeing Hoeseung on there singing happily makes me so happy.

I'm so thankful for this supportive members, and although he still doesn't have a healthy relationship with his mother, he's been getting the love and support from my parents and I'm glad things turned out the way they did.

It's been a few hours later and I heard the sound of the door opening. I suddenly pretended to sleep but I couldn't help but to giggle.

I felt his presence behind me and he put kisses all over my face, I ended up laughing and he laughed also.

"You're not slick Y/N." He laughed while engulfing me in a bear hug.

His lips landed on mine and stayed like that for a while before he tickled me.

"Stop it or else I'm going to slap yOU WITH MY SLIPPERS." I screamed for help and he ran away hearing me.

"No not the slippers!" He ran and I chased after him.

I've learned that while you grow up, your confidence grows as well.
