She was about to swing her fist to Handong's face when suddenly someone hold her arm

“What the hell!” the leader of bully turn around to face the person

“You better stop it now!”

“L-Lee... Yu-Yubin” the leader said with shaking voice

“aahh I don't know that this school still have a trash!” someone in other way said. It's Lee Siyeon. We all look at her way and notice that all of the person that greet Handong's before was here. What are they doing here?

What are they doing here?  To save me?

“What are you doing loser?! Let her go!” Yoohyeon shout to the people that hold me.

They let me go without saying anything to Yoohyeon. Gahyeon pull me closer to her and hug me

“Handong are you okay?” Gahyeon ask

“yea thank you”

“You all! Kneel down, hand to above!” Minji shouted and the bullies just follow without saying anything

“Why you punch her?” Minji ask

“we are just want to play around” she finished her stupid answer

“what the hell!” Bora want to beat the one that answer head but Yoohyeon stopped her

“Calm down Bora” Yoohyeon said

“Start from now, Handong is in my team! If anyone try to lay one finger on her, I'll no mercy with them! Understand?!” Minji said

“yes” the bullies answer

“Louder! I can't hear you!” Minji said

“Yes!” they said more louder than before

Wow, when the first time Minji greet me, she show me the bright smile. I didn't know she has this kind of side. Also Yubin, I thought she was a bully when she hit Yoohyeon's head, but no. She was the one that stop the bully from hit me

I was still hold my stomach and Gahyeon notice that

“Hey, let's take Handong to treatment room. She's in pain” Gahyeon said

“Okay, let's go. You all stay kneel down like that until we leave” Minji said

“just a little bad thing happen, can we treat her ourselves? We have to take off her clothes, Handong don't like people she doesn't close with look at body” Minji said and the teacher nodded and leave the room

“I'm okay with that, why you ask the teacher to leave? She's a woman by the way” Handong ask in confused

“I just want to talk in privacy”

“okay. What you want to talk about?”

“Why don't you tell us that you got bullied?”

“I don't think I have to tell you guys”

“why not?! We are friend!” Gahyeon shouted

Handong shock after heard the sentence that come from Gahyeon mouth

“we...friend?” Handong mumble

“of course! We are all friend! Right Siyeon?” Yoohyeon said

“Yes. I'm sure all of us think the same” Siyeon answer and all of them nodded while smile at Handong

Handong can't say and do anything except just brust of tears. She was touch when they said she was their friend

“oh my god Handong, why are you crying?” Bora said

“Yubin what did you do to her?!” Yoohyeon said and hit Yubin arms

“Why me? I think you are the one that made her crying” Yubin said and hit Yoohyeon back
