Even though I already knew who stood before me, I looked up.
'Of course it is Minjun.'
Annoyed I ignored his hand which tried to help me up and stood up by myself.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to bumb into you."
I apologize quickly.
"What's your relationship with Min Yeong-Ja?!"
The suden question made me freeze and probably look really surprised.
"It's non of your business."
I hissed at him.
'This guy is so fucking annoying!'
He looked at me with eyes filled with anger.
"And what do you even care! Is she your girlfriend or something?!"
I was really mad at him right now.
"No...."
His voice was low and cold.
It sounded very scary.
"Whatever! I need to go home now, bye."
That were my last words.
I just walked away, but I felt the burning gaze on my back.
'How can I like him? He is such a creep!'
At home my mom opened me the door and hugged me thightly.
"I was so worried about you! Please don't do that ever again!"
I looked at her with wet eyes.
"I'm sorry mom, I really didn't mean to worry you!"
"It's ok."
Tears were rolling down my face.
I never wanted my mom to be sad or worried about me, it just remiend me of the time when my father left us.
[She sat on the cold floor, looking at the front door and hoped he'd come back.
My 6 year old self didn't know what to do.
I never saw her in such a state and it scared me.
Scared that she would burst out in tears or slap me, I walked to her.
"M-mom? Are you ok?"
She turned her head in my direction.
Her eyes were red and swollen, you could also see the pain in them.
Her hair was knottet and there was dirt all over her body.
I couldn't bear seeing her in that state and bursted out in tears.
Something flickered in her eyes and she took me into her arms.
"I'm sorry, mom is sorry. Don't worry Jinwo mom is fine, don't worry, stop crying. Mom is ok."
That were her lovely words she said to me as she remembered she still had me.
My eyes were also swallon after that day.]
Back then I didn't understand why my mom was so sad about my dad leaving, he did hit me all the time and he shouted at me, told me I'm an failure, but to my mom he was always so lovely, until she started to protect me.
She just loved him to much, that was the reason for her sadness when he left.
Now I understand.
'Love is some kind of shit, and I don't want that!'
My mom gently petted my back to calm me down.
And as I hugged her again she smiled slightly and lovely.
"I love you so much mom, and I'll always be here to be with you."
I whispered those words, but my mom could still understand them.
"I know, your a good boy. I love you too."
She let go of me and ruffeled trough my hair.
"Now, go get ready for bed and lay down. You look exhausted."
I nodded and got ready.
'I'm absolutly not going to school tomorrow!'
