She walked swiftly towards them while the first one is laughing at her.
"You little girl.. Are you-", he got punched straight on the nose before he finished his dialogue. He knocked down and they looked shocked.
One reacted from behind by running towards her and pulling a punch aimlessly. He should have known better. She dodged the punch and kicked him in the ribs.
Now two of them opened their attack with sticks. Sticks can be dangerous in amateurs' hands.
She grabbed one of their sticks and kicked the other one while he is expecting an attack with stick at his leg. The one whose stick is in now Kyo's hand was got hit by his own stick in the head.
She threw the stick away and started fighting the one who seems to be the only one who is able to fight. He looks like an absolute bull.
One suddenly tried to attack her from the back with the stick she threw away . I tried to stop him, but ouch! I got hit on my hand. The stick was broken, grabbing her attention.
I lost my focus because of pain, but I saw Hobi there.
I opened my eyes to see a white sealing. Hospital?
"His hand shouldn't be moved until two weeks. Take care", nurse told my mom who is now crying.
Oh. I couldn't play in sports day now.
"Jin! You woke up! You have terrified me baby!", she walked swiftly towards me.
"... Who are you?", I acted surprised, to decrease the intensity of the situation.
"You got hit on your hand, not your head dummy!", she laughed while her eyes are spilling tears.
I can understand why she is crying. I worked hard for an year for this opportunity and I lost it. I felt like crying too, but I have to stay strong for her.
I smiled and wiped her tears.
" It's nothing mom. There is always next year. I'll practice as soon as I recover. It's just a sprain. It will heal in no time. Thank god it's on left hand. I can write exams..", I'm blabbering.
"What exams? Recover first! We will talk to the school", she patted my head.
"I'll pay the fees and come back. Just wait, okay?", she kissed my forehead and walked out.
My tears won't stop. I've been wiping them and they kept on streaming.
"Hyung!", Tae ran towards me with worried face.
"Don't cry..", he pouted and I smiled with my eyes leaking.
"I'm not crying Tae. Something fell in my eyes", I spoke.
"Worst excuse", he spoke, "But don't worry. Dad is taking care of the one who did this to you. They were captured in CCTV it seems. Dad is proceeding legally with them."
"That's a relief", I don't want to leave them alone with what they have done to us.
"What is the time now?", I asked him.
"1AM",he spoke.
"Where is Jikyo?", I asked him.
"She went to her home just now", he told me.
"Okay. Did Namjoon know about it?", I asked him again.
"No. We will do it tomorrow. He will come right now ignoring the time", he told me. Yes, he will do that.
"Okay boys. Time to go home! It's been a long day", mom walked back.
We went back to home and straight to the bed room. My plastered left hand bothered me all the night in sleep.
"Morning Jin", mom opened the door of my room and walked towards me.
"Stop putting your weight on your left hand while you sleep!", she pulled my left hand gently and placed it on pillow rest as she did it at night.
"But mom.. It's so uncomfortable", I whined.
"You have to do it to recover fast baby", she told me.
She helped me wash my face and hair.
"Time for breakfast!", she prepared huge meat for breakfast.
"Mom! Who will eat meat for breakfast?", I asked her.
"You will now. It will help you recover faster", she told me.
I nodded and stuffed my mouth with a large piece of meat.
"Don't eat so fast. It's all for you hyung", Tae spoke.
"Jin-ah!", Namjoon walked into the room with a frown on his face.
"What happened?", he took seat against the table.
"Have some breakfast, Joon", she asked him.
"No eomonie*. I had breakfast back at home and I should go to school with Tae. What happened Jin?", he asked me.
"That prick brought more minions when I am with Jikyo. She fought with them and almost got hurt by one. I saved her by standing between them and he hit my hand with a stick", I explained him.
"They attacked her?", he looked mad.
"They deserve some beating, but look at you! You must have been careful!", his frown deepened.
"What happened is already happened. Let's focus on present. It's already time for school. Don't you want to go?", I asked him.
"Damn you are right! We are late! Let's run Tae!", he spoke.
"No need. I'll drop you guys. We never know what happened will not repeat. Tae and Joon, you must be around people always for your security. And I appointed a driver to drive you from school and home.."
"Uh..Abeoji*...", Joon tried to speak but dad cut him.
"Don't say no to it, Joon. You are Jin's friend, so they might target you too.. And that girl too...who is she? I didn't see her clearly because I was in hurry yesterday", he spoke.
"You don't need to worry about her dad. Her father is rich enough to provide her with driver and body guards", I spoke.
"Is that so?", he asked Tae and he nodded.
"Okay then. Let's go, Tae and Joon. You don't have to come by walk from tomorrow Joon. Our driver will come to your home", he spoke and walked away in hurry.
"Joon.. He might look cold, but Jin's dad is really looking out for you. He is worried about you kids", she patted his shoulder and they ran to the car.
