Less Than Zero - Hwang Hyunjin

The rest of the night I had slept terrified, suddenly waking up at the sound of the slightest sounds, afraid he was back.

I groaned as the bright sun shone right into my sleep deprived eyes, causing me to cover them.

I then got up and went to my vanity to take a look at my throat. There it was, a huge bruise.

It was formed in a shape of fingers, his fingers. Although it didn't hurt, I felt weird and scared.

I then went ahead downstairs and surprisingly saw both father and hyunjin sitting at the table, 'weird' I thought, they should have been at the academy by now.

Father had then noticed my presence and rushed towards me.

"Oh my God, tell me, who did this? Where are you hurt? Was there blood?" Father suddenly asked all these questions all at once as he grabbed my arms, face, head to see where I was wounded.

Just then , he spotted the huge purple bruise. I could see the blood entering fathers eyes as he suddenly became extremely tense.

"I will find whoever did this to you, and I promise once I find whoever did this to you, i will kill him with my own hands," father strictly reassured.

"Y/n, hyunjin will now take care of you," Father then said. I looked at him in confusion.

"Huh? What do you mean "take care of me?" I can take care of myself." I argued back to which father harshly started rubbing his temple.

"You could take care of yourself, yet you end up like this, hyunjin will just always be around you, okay? Nothing to personal or anything. He's just going to stay by your side at all times."

Father replied back, more in a demanding tone.

"Fine," I sighed. There was no use arguing with him.

"Look, to make this somewhat easier for you and all of us, with hyunjin around, you can go out," Father said once again in a hesitant tone.

"What? Actually? Oh my God! Thank you so much!" I jumped in excitement as I tightly hugged Father, giggling, causing him to smile slightly.

"Hyunjin, she's yours to take care of now, you are my oldest friends son and that's why I'm trusting you so much, please don't break my trust" father said looking at hyunjin, in a pleading way.

Hyunjin stood up straight.

"You have my word, sir, for as long as she's under my security, I promise nothing will ever happen to her," hyunjin reassured, and with that, Father had left.

I looked at hyunjin, the anger, the rage, it was gone. His eyes and face in general seemed to have softened up a bit now.

"SO, um, since I am now allowed to go out now, can we go somewhere? Maybe to the mall?" I pleaded to hyunjin, giving him baby eyes, causing him to raise his eyebrows.

He was a bit hesitant until he groaned and replied.

"Ugh, fine, I'll be out waiting in the car. Get ready within half an hour and meet me in the car," he said as he walked out.

I squeeled in excitement as I ran upstairs to my room, I first showered,and then got dressed, I decided to wear a sort of long white maxi dress with small pink flowers all over, with pink cardigan sleeves and white shoes.

And last but not least, I decided to use my most favorite ever rose perfume. I then headed on downstairs just to see hyunjin leaning against the car.
