💜 A-YEONG 💜
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
Seo-Jun’s tears was flowing in handfuls, as she felt her world crumbling before her.
“Woah!!!! So sweet!!!”A-Yeong shouted from the audience and everyone joined her in clapping, while cheering the newly engaged!!!
Seo-Jun who couldn’t stand the Shame and heartbreak,ran out of the hall in tears while Mr chin-hae went after her.
“Beom-seok!!!!”Mr chul gritted and went back to his chair.
Beom-seok and aerum smiled at each other instead.
•••••
<TWO HOUR’S LATER>
Beom-seok car screeched to a halt. He turned to look at Aerum,who sent a loving smile his way before unbuckling her seat belt,then came down from the car.
Beom-seok came down too, and walked to her before interlocking their hands,and they began walking to the bridge, while smiling happily.
“Why did you insist we come here?”Beom-seok asks once they’ve stood, looking at the beautiful water.
The lights which was shining brightly gave the water a beautiful sight to behold.
“Just wanted us to come, nothing much”Aerum shrugged with a smile.
Aerum blinked repeatedly, while looking at the waters,a smile still on her face.
Since the time she’ve got to know her self,she haven’t been happy as she is within the past days.
“Thank you”She muttered and beom-seok turned to her.
“For what?”He asks cluelessly and she smiled more.
“Thank you for coming into my life”She said, looking at him affectionately,her eyes holding so much passion for the handsome dude standing in front of her.
“Thank you too”beom-seok smiled at her.
“I have a gift for you”Aerum told him.
“What?”Beom-seok asks impatiently.
“I just said it’s a gift sugar”She winked and beom-seok pouted cutely.
“Close your eyes cutie!!”She pinched his cheeks and he chuckled before shutting his eyes.
Aerum dipped her hands in her pulse and brought out a silver necklace which had a love shaped pendant,inside the pendant A&B was inscribed on it.
She took few steps to him, closing up the little space before them,she stood on her toes and put on the necklace round his neck.
“Open up!!”She clapped and beom-seok flicked his eyes open,he looked at the necklace and smiled broadly.
“Jeez!! It’s so cute”Beom-seok gushed, taking cupping the pendants in his palms.
“I love it”he continued and aerum’s smiled tripled.
“I’m glad you did”She heaved happily and beom-seok chuckled before pulling her in his arms,he sank his face in her neck exhaling her cologne.
“I love you”He muttered running his hands through her back.
“I love you more!”Aerum replied and beom-seok lifted his face from her neck.
“Did you just say you love me more? Nah! I love you more okay?”Beom-seok objected and aerum pouted.
“I love you more”she retorted.
“No I love you ten times more than you do”beom-seok said and aerum shook her head.
“I love you a million times more than you do okay?”Aerum replied again and beom-seok raised up his hand in surrender.
“Fine”He smiled and aerum giggled,she stood on her toes and slammed her lips on beom-seok lips,kissing him lightly.
She broke the kiss,but beom-seok claimed back her lips,kissing her passionately.

<NEXT DAY~GLITTERING HIGHSCHOOL>
Aerum made her way through the crowded hallway, while breathing heavily. How on earth did she sleep off? Now she’s late,f-__-k!!
Her phone beeped in her backpack and she tried bringing it out, while still walking.
“Sorry!!”She hurriedly apologized to the group of girls she bumped into.
💌”Where the f-__-k are you?”
A-yeong message read and aerum sighed before increasing her race speed.
She ran to her class,but stopped when she that the class already begun.
“And we call it a day for today. I have no class with you guys again today”The history teacher concluded and aerum gasped lowly.
How could she sleep off like that? Now she missed the first lesson!
The history teacher turned to the door, only to see aerum standing on the door with a shocked expression.
“Oh,jeez! How could a student come to school by this Time?”He asks inquisitively, looking at his time.
Aerum scratched her hair, trying to come up with a perfect lie but her head was completely blank at the moment.
“I slept late sir”She stuttered and took her bottom lips in.
“You went to club? You slept over at your boyfriend’s house? You….”
“It won’t happen again sir”Aerum cut him off and he scoffed loudly.
“Not like I have a business with you”Was all the teacher uttered before leaving the classroom, pushing aerum out of the way.
“What took you long and why are you coming now?”Her friends pulled her to the seat, bombarding her with questions.
“I…I slept late”she replied and a-yeong shot her a questionable look.
“Did you have a steamy night with beom-seok?”She whispered and aerum slapped her forehead immediately.
“A-yeong!! What’s wrong with you”She glared and a-yeong chuckled.
“Nothing”She shrugged and aerum hissed.
“And talking about beom-seok,where is he? I haven’t seen him”Aerum asks,darting her eyes round the classroom.
“I haven’t seen him”Yu-jun said and A-yeong nodded in affirmative.
“Oh!!”She muttered sadly, and bite her bottom lips hard.
•••
<GRADE 11 CLASSROOM>
The whole class was noisy,with students chatting loudly.
Yu-Ri could be seen,seated quietly while going through her Notebook.
“Yu-Ri Kang-dae?”A male student walked in and asked.
Yu-Ri looked up slowly,with her hand raised.
“Good then,come with me”He gestured and Yu-Ri nodded obediently before leaving with him.

<SCHOOL LIBRARY>
Aerum walked in the library, while humming a song to herself. She’s been looking for beom-seok and he wasn’t in sight.
She decided to check in the library, maybe he might be there.
She was still walking,when she heard a whimpering sound,like someone weeping bitterly.
She walked slowly to the direction the sound was coming from,only to see seo-jun crying her eyes out,it took aerum her self control not to burst into a hysterical laughter.
This wasn’t the time to laugh or make mockery,so she choose to mind her business instead.
She turned and tried walking away,when Seo-Jun’s voice stopped her.
“Why did you have to show up in our lives?”Seo-jun asks, wiping her tears.
“Huh?”Aerum arched her brows and seo-jun let out a sad chuckle.
“We both were happy,we where enjoying each other’s company and everyday of our lives was filled with happiness. Why did you have to ruin everything?”Seo-jun half yelled and aerum gulped emptiness, suddenly feeling sad for her.
“First was my silly sister Ara and when she was gotten out of the picture,you had to show up?”Seo-jun continued and aerum took steps backwards, refusing to believe her ears.
Ara was Seo-Jun’s sister? Beom-seok dead girlfriend was…was Seo-Jun’s sister? No! This is complicated and what did seo-jun mean by when she was gotten out of the picture,does that mean she had hand in her sisters death? No!!! She would never stoop so low,she might be a devil incarnate but she’ll never hut her sister cos of a guy! She wouldn’t!!!
“Don’t think it’s over yet,I always have my ways of getting things and giving up is not in my vocabulary and would never be! Mark my words aerum,I’m going to take what is rightfully mine!”She said, looking at aerum dangerously,her voice holding so much determination in it.
She stood up from the chair,then brushed her shoulder harshly on aerum’s before walking out of the library.
“What just happened?”Aerum asks with wide eye while looking at Seo-Jun’s retreating figure.
She suddenly felt a sharp pain in her hand and she shut her eyes, gripping unto the nearest chair for support.
•••
<ROOFTOP>
The male student walked in with Yu-Ri looking around fearfully,her heart beating loudly as she gripped unto her arms tightly.
Her heart sank into her stomach when she saw Do-yun standing, waiting for her.
“You can leave”Do-Yun told him and he nodded before walking out.
“You called me?”She bowed and Do-Yun smiled.
“I did”She replied and walked forward to her.
“Why I’m i here?”Yu-Ri found herself asking and Do-Yun chuckled.
“You don’t have to be scared okay? I only wanna be friends”She smiled and Yu-Ri stared at her with wide eye.
••••
<CLASSROOM>
Aerum walked in dejectedly,with a lot of thoughts going on in her mind.
She turned and her eyes locked with Seo-Jun’s who only smirked.
“You look lost”A-yeong said, jerking her back to earth.
“I’m..I’m.. good!”She smiled.
Her phone beeped and she brought it out.
💌”I’m sorry love, couldn’t come to school. Something came up, don’t miss me much okay? Love ya a bunch 😘”
Aerum smiled after reading the text message but sighed almost immediately.
The English teacher walked in next and soon,the class kicked off with full speed.
••••
<HOURS LATER~A-YEONG FAMILY HOUSE>
The school was over and students have all retired back to their different house.
A-Yeong walked into the house happily,with the hope of seeing her mom but she met the room empty.
“Mom?”She furrowed her brows and took the steps,but her mom wasn’t in sight.
The room was all messy and unkempt, making A-Yeong wonder where her mom could be, leaving the room in such a mess.
She descended the stairs,heading to the kitchen this time.
“Mom enough with the pranks huh? I’m not in for that!!”She shouted but no reply came from the kitchen,she exhaled tiredly Wondering where she suddenly disappeared to.
Her phone began ringing which she brought out and upon seeing the caller’s ID,she began quivering hoping it wasn’t what she was thinking.
She picked up slowly,her heart beating aggressively while she waited patiently for him to speak up.
📞”Need you here in the next 15 minutes,else you want her dead!!”
That was all she heard and the call was disconnected.
“15 minutes?”She stuttered heartbreakingly and dashed upstairs to change her school uniform.
•••
<UNKNOWN LOCATION>
The bike pulled to a halt in front of the building and the lady dressed in hood came down,this time she wasn’t holding the serious look which she always hold but a panick face was what stood on her face.
She pushed the door open,and as usual the man was drinking from his bottle of vodka while twirling the gun in his hand.
NO!! LET ME GO! DON’T HURT ME!!!!!
That was the screams that was heard from the room next door.
“Boss!!”She called and the man turned to her with a smile.
“You’re surprised right? I told you not to mess with me didn’t I?”He chuckled darkly and she went on her knees instantly.
“Please, don’t hurt her. I beg of you!!”She clapped her palms together.
“Then get me what I want A-Yeong!!!!”
