Crown the Spotlight

Chapter 3: The Memory

Hello everyone! So I decided to put "Nap of a Star" by TXT because this is Hyojung's flashbacks so I hope you enjoy this chapter

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(A/N: **Hyojung's dream**)

**" Mom, Dad can we go see look at the flower cart?" seven-year-old me asked

"Sure honey." My dad replied

We walked over to the flower cart and look at them. I was too busy looking at the flowers that I noticed my parents were gone. I looked everywhere for them and couldn't find them. They always told me to meet them in the ice cream shop if I ever lose them in the mall. I ran over to 

the ice cream shop and sat at our usual table, the second table from the front window. "Mom...Dad...." I whispered

"Hey, are you ok?" someone asked

I looked up and saw a boy around nine years old. I nodded to reply to his question. "I lost my parents...." I said but after I said that the floor started to shake. The front window shattered which cause me to scream. The boy grabbed me and tried to hide us underneath the table but the ceiling fell before he could. He covered me before any of the debris hit me and we both fell to the ground and blacked out.

Maybe 2 hours later

I started to wake up, slowly opening my eyes. I sat up and noticed that the boy was still not awake. "Hey, are you ok?" I asked while shaking him and he wouldn't wake up. "Wake up......Please..." I started to cry still shaking. Then he started to wake up, I was still crying when he was realizing what was happening.

"Are you ok?" I asked

"Yea. What about you are you hurt anywhere?"

"I don't think so...ah" I winced when I tried to move my leg

I looked at my leg and it was bleeding and there was a piece of debris on it. The boy saw my leg and moved the debris off and checked it. He barely touched it and I winced from the pain.

"I think its broken. Here let me wrap it so doesn't get infected." He said as he took off his outer shirt and wrapped my leg with it. "So, what's your name?" he asked

"Hyojung. What is yours?"

"You can call me Jun ok?"

"ok..."

I fell asleep after he finished wrapping my leg. After sleeping for a little bit, I felt something dripping on me. I slowly opened my eyes and then I felt it again. I looked at where the dripping was coming from and it looked like water but what if it wasn't?

"Hyojung-ah, are you ok? What's wrong?" Jun asked while rubbing his eyes

"Something is dripping on me and I don't know what it is?"

"Could be water."

I just ignored it but then I heard a sound...... someone singing a song that...... my mom.... would sing.... then it stopped

"Mom?" I followed the voice and saw a little opening where we were stuck at. I looked through the little opening and saw something horrifying.

"Hyo? What's wrong?" Jun ask but noticed what I was looking at

My mom and dad lying underneath the debris......dead....*thunder* I started to cry and I attempted to reach out for them but Jun just held me back because if I tried to reach for them everything could fall on us even more.

"Hyo, don't look ok.... it's going to be ok. Alright? Hyojung, just listen to my voice ok?" Jun said trying to calm me down

I started to hyperventilate and shake. All the air from my lungs was leaving my lungs but not returning. While I had my panic attack, Jun just held me tight, whispering to me telling me everything was going to be ok and that someone will find us. And then I started to calm down and then I fell asleep....

Two days later

"......Are there...... any survivors......?!" someone screamed

"We are here! Down Here! Help!" Jun started to scream and found a metal pipe and started to hit a rock to make noise. I couldn't scream anymore because I was too weak to say anything.

"Help! We are down here!"

"Down there!" someone called out

We heard a funny noise and then we saw flashlights and then everything turned black but we were finally saved.... **

"Hyo? Please wake up.... please"

I slowly opened my eyes which was blinded by light.

"Where am I?" I asked

"Hyo? Are you hurt? Are you feeling any pain?" I looked and saw my brother

"I'll go get the doctor." Jinsung said before running out of the room

A few minutes later, Jinsung came back inside the room and had a doctor follow in behind him

"Ms. Kwon, are you feeling any pain anyway?" the doctor asked

I shook my head and then the doctor smiled at me.

"Who is her guardian?"

"I am, doctor." My brother stated

"Alright. Do you mind me talking to you a few minutes?"

He shook his head and then left with the doctor. Everyone was sitting outside the room besides Jinsung, Soobin, and Yongha. I looked at Jinsung and he looked so worried.

"Hyojung, are you really ok?" Jinsung asked

"Yea. This has happened before but it was this bad..." All three of them gave me a weird look.

"What do you mean this has happened before?" Yongha asked

"I had a childhood trauma and every time a thunder storm comes. All the memories come back." I stated while looking away from them trying not to remember the terrible things that occurred that day.

"It's ok Hyo. You're safe now ok? Now get some sleep." Soobin said before standing up to leave the room. After Soobin stood up, Jinsung and Yongha stood up as well and left the room. After they left, I fell asleep....
