If I Ain't Got You | YeonBin

"I can't do this anymore."

A man with his business attire said, the despair on his face was so evident right now.

"What? What do you mean? You promise me!"

Now a woman's voice, obviously talking to the man, at her apartment, sounded like she didn't like what he said. She was holding a baby boy who was sleeping on her embrace.

"She knew, I don't want her to hurt you."

She looked at the man with disbelief. "Do you think you don't hurt us if you leave? Think about your son! Think about Soobin! Do you think I made him alone?"

"Please understand me. I promise you, I will be responsible about Soobin."

The woman knew he couldn't do anything but to believe in him, believe his words,

and that was the wrong decision she ever made,

because he did never came after that...

Finally, Soobin graduated from his junior high school.

Yes, let me introduce him to you. He is Choi Soobin, 15 years old, a shy and introverted boy. He lived only with his mother, have no cousins because his mom was an only child to his grandparents, who died long before he was born.

His father, left them since he still a baby. Honestly, Soobin was the child by 'accident' if you could say that. His mother once slept with his father, his mother's boss, after one of company dinner. They got drunk and, you all knew what happened next.

Well, at first he said he would take a responsibility of that, taking care of his mother and him, without marriage. Because, he was married with someone already.

Again, I thought you all could guess what happened after that. He left them, because his wife found out about them, about Soobin and his mother, and by that he left them behind, choosing his legal wife and his family, of fucking course.

The worst part was, Soobin knew it all when he moved out from junior high school, when he was bullied by the toxic and judgemental students, by the rumor that fucking queenbee spread about him and Yeonjun.

He thought after the 'confession' incident, he could live his life like he usually had, his boring days at school without any friends or problems. He indeed was wrong. His life really changed, even worse. He got bullied, and the worst part was, he almost got rapped by the 'gangster' on his school.

The beginning of the next rumor, that made him moved out, was after that incident. Yes, he almost got rapped, and it didn't happened thanks to Yeonjun, Choi Yeonjun, who known as the best fighter at that school.

He was one year older than Soobin, actually his senior at that school. Yeonjun was the one who took him to the infirmary, befriended him, and did not mind about his sexuality.

'I will protect you. You're my friend now. Just shout my name if something like that happened again.'

That was what the older said to him at that day, the day when he almost got rapped.

Time went by, but the bullying got worse, even weeks after, and he couldn't always bothering the older. Almost everyday, he got bullied until he reached his limit, he couldn't take it anymore.
