Chaewon entered her house as she put her shoes neatly aside. She expelled a sigh and her shoulders dropped as she walked towards the living area where her mom was.

"I'm home" Chaewon remarked tiredly and dropped her bag onto the floor. "Hey sweetie, how was school?" Her mom asked cheerfully but Chaewon didn't reply.

At the lack of response, Yewon- Chaewon's mother- turned to take a look at her daughter. She was unusually quiet. Yewon raised her brow and stood up from the couch and made her way towards Chaewon who was walking towards the kitchen to get a glass of water.

Yewon placed a hand on her daughter's shoulder comfortingly, her eyes filled with worry since she knew something was wrong. "What's wrong Chaewon?" She asked, her voice softer.

Chaewon gulped the water down her sore throat and frowned as she faced her mother, "Nothing, just something unfortunate happened at school" She tried to brush it off but she knew that Yewon understood her more than she understood herself.

"What is it?" Yewon calmly demanded, not wanting her daughter to be more upset.

Before Chaewon answered, Yewon dragged her towards the dining table and let her sit on one of the chairs.

"Okay," Yewon went on, "Spill the tea"

Chaewon just let out a bitter laugh. "We have this stupid assignment and Ms. Seo paired me with this boy who literally wanted to kill me and didn't even want to cooperate with that damn assignment and we had a freaking fight in front of everyone, that freaking tall crackhead boy asked me if I wanted him to murder me and that's so messed up because I just came up to him to ask about the assignment and-"

"You're ranting, calm down a bit honey" Yewon chuckled as Chaewon inhaled sharply.

"I just wanted to get along with him even though he's scary" The girl frowned as she looked down at her feet, her hair falling and covering her face.

She heard her mom sigh and shifted on her chair, "Who exactly is this guy?"

"Oh, his name is Jisung. Park Jisung" Chaewon looked back at her mother. Yewon looked up at the ceiling as she thought. "That name is oddly familiar though" Her mom stated.

Chaewon looked at her curiously, "Uh, from where?"

"I'm not exactly sure but, I worked in an orphanage before and we have a list of names and I think I saw that name there." Yewon shrugged her shoulders as she looked at her daughter. Chaewon's mouth fell into an 'o' shape.

"B-But why is he mean around other people though?" She asked with her brows raised

"Maybe he just had a traumatic past"
