Chapter 15: Escaping From Everyone
My stomach feels the scrape when we gather around the living room. It's normal to feel nervous. However, I just defend myself to Fiona. It's her fault why we got a fight and if she didn't start to discredit me then it would never happen.
"The principal called us and you involved in a riot inside the hallway. Why did you do that?"
My mother tries to suppress her turmoil but it's written on her face with a distinct disappointment. I remain silent as they continue lecturing me. Luckily, my parents never lay their hands on us but seeing their disappointment from their face, hurting me.
"Minsoo, don't do that again. I know it is hard for you to adjust and you don't like to be here, but having a fight is not a reason to be an insurgent." My father adds.
"Dad, I'm not having a fight, she created it. I'm just defending myself from those who humiliate me and you realize I can't do that." I plead, trying to convince them, I'm not the one who started the riot.
"How would I believe that reason of yours if we've seen it for a couple of weeks? And you're being an insurgent so you could get back in Korea and I'm terrified that you will do this again if we didn't do anything!" My father wails.
I gasp in shock knowing that they believe them and not me.
"I was trying to defend myself, Dad, and you claimed I'm being an insurgent?! Stop being paranoid!" I howl back. He takes a deep breath to calm himself.
"It's my responsibility to be paranoid, Minsoo. Mine! And I'm trying to protect you as your parents."
"I never urged you to be my parents," I mumbled, but it's enough to hear them.
"What did you say?" My mom demands.
"I said…I never urged you to be my parents!" I speak louder but meaning it to shout.
"And I never urged to look after a rebel like you Minsoo and now we're stuck for the rest of our lives!" She cries out.
The room grows silent, and it takes a while before my mother realizes what she uttered. Her face softens while staring at me. My entire body falls down along with my teary eyes.
"Minsoo I—" My mother couldn't speak when I storm out of my room after hearing her harsh words. I lock my door and burst into tears.
After a minute, I hear a knock coming from outside and chooses to ignore it. My heart couldn't take it if I confronted one of them. I'm devastated when Jungmin actually reports me to the principal and doesn't even ask what happened back there. They even believe in what the principal said.
I'm shocked and mostly confused.
"Minsoo, its Jungmin. Can I come in?" I remain in silence. He continues knocking on the door hoping for me to open it for him but sadly, I can't.
"Go away, Jungmin, leave me alone." I finally speak, trying myself to hide my cracking voice.
"Please, I'm sorry Minsoo if I didn't say anything to defend you and it wasn't me who reported you to the principal. It was Fiona." He whispers, but it's enough for me to hear what he mumbles.
"You don't need to apologize, Jungmin, it happened. It's my fault. Just go away Jungmin and leave me alone!" I reply, deciding to push him away.
When I discover nothing is outside, I let out all my tears and heavy heart that I hide for myself. Hating myself from crying over the silly things, but for me, it hurts me. I feel like I'm just their responsibility to take care of. Within a minute, someone tosses the rock on my window, so I wipe my tears. I glimpse at the window to check who's throwing some rocks. There, I see Taehyung leaning on his car.
I frown and get back to bed, but he throws a rock again through my windows, so I decide to open and ready to tell him to go away.
"I know you have a rough day, so I'm here to makes you happy." He yells. I snort and wander back into my room.
"Please, Minsoo. I want to make it up for you. Just today." He adds.
I sigh and strode to my window.
"How will I know if you wouldn't hurt me as you did in our first 'friendly date'?" I ask in an annoying voice, but deep inside, I'm excited, happy as he wants to make it up for me.
"I solemnly promise that I could give you only happiness and not a disappointment." He mutters whilst his right hands are placed on his left chest.
"Wait for me to get down," I answer but when I reach my door, I realize that they're inside the living room.
I walk back to the window and glance at Taehyung.
"I don't want to see them," I state in a gloomy voice. He smiles as he lifts his arms up, indicating that he will catch me.
"Are you sure?" He shows me an assuring smile.
"Do you trust me?" He proposes.
I release a sigh before looking on the grounds. My body quivers when realizing the height of the house. I glance at Taehyung, who's giving me a smile, encouraging me to jump down.
I bite my lips as I close my eyes before jumping out of the room. I cover my mouth and refrain from screaming. Abruptly, I notice arms around my waist and lay on a muscular torso, I shut my eyes open and stare at Taehyung, who catches me from falling.
I smile and hug him tightly.
"Thank you for catching me," I whisper and smile.
He helps me to stand up and pulls me into his car and drive faster.
"Why are you doing this Taehyung?" I ask.
"I can't take my eyes off you when seeing your despair. I decided to make it up for you and to start over and this time, I will protect you from others and not from me." He says without looking at me.
"Would you give me a chance?" He adds.
My mind couldn't tell if it's sincere or not yet, I feel butterflies inside my stomach and shiver into my spine. He is asking me for another chance? Is it true? On second thought, He has a girlfriend, and it's Amia.
My gaze remains to my thighs with a pout on my lips. I look up when his car stops somewhere.
"What's wrong?" He asks as he caresses my cheeks.
My palm touches his thigh—nervous on his response if I ask him about his relationships with Amia.
"I'm not a mind reader to know what's inside your little head if you wouldn't tell me. What is it?"
"Do you promise that you'll respond honestly?" Both of his hands place into my cheeks and lean closer to mine and peck my forehead. He gives me a hearty smile and salutes.
"I promise this time." He answers. I bite my lips and nod.
My eyes shut close when feeling his thumb caressing my lower lip.
"Don't gnaw your lip Minsoo or else... I wouldn't stop myself from biting your lip." I gasp when feeling the intense heat inside my body, screaming for his touch. He put away his hands from my cheeks.
"We are out of the line Minsoo, we need to finish our conversation before we could do something... pleasurable for us and it's not the right time to do." He says whilst striving to hide his blushed face.
I clear my throat and fix my seat.
"We should go to my secret place." I nod since I can't trust myself to say anything and it could probably embarrass myself to him.
"O...okay but w... we should t... talk about it l... later. Just drive." I stutter. 'Yep, that's why I can't trust myself because I'll stutter!'
I mutter to myself as I internally roll my eyes.
My head leans on the window, striving to hide my blush face. 'It is so embarrassing, Minsoo! Keep your dirty thoughts out of your head, Minsoo!' I scold myself.
