As I felt getting dragged, I panicked. Hard. I tried to free myself from this person's grip but I can't. So, I used my only trick that my dad taught me back then.
I elbowed that person.
He let out a loud grunt and guess what? It definitely sounded like Guanlin. Is he really?
"Guanlin?" He was wearing a hoodie that covered his head and a mouth mask that covered half of his face
He then opened the mask and lowered his hoodie. I was right, he is Guanlin.
"Yeah, it's me. Dang, you elbow me quite hard." He touched his stomach and his face clearly shows the feeling of hurt
I felt really guilty. I swear, if I knew it was him, I wouldn't.
"Sorry. Why did you even took me here? And why is it so dark?" After I said that, the lights turned on showing desks that aren't occupied and a whiteboard in front that still had some notes.
But there was a little twist. Some desks are occupied.. By Wanna One; well the ones that goes to school, of course. They're here already?
"How did you guys-" I got cut off
"Where the fuck were you?" Jihoon straight up said with a mad face
"Are you hurt?" Woojin asked
"Who was with you? The one who took you to school? Do you know that guy?" Daniel lastly asked
It took me a while to process the questions. How did they know? Were they spying at me?
"I-I was with Kim Samuel, a new kid." I said nervously
They seemed to look at each other dorm a while. I just gulped. Why is it suddenly hot in here?
"Where and how'd you meet him?" Jihoon asked, with his bitch face on.
Kay, who made him like this?
"Well, I was walking towards... I don't know where and suddenly he came up to me. We had a little conversation and he offered to take me to school. I accepted." I explained
"You accepted, huh? You didn't mention the part where you were hugging him so tightly around his waist." Jihoon said with a sarcastic tone
"He told me to hold on to him so I won't fall." I defended
"And you listened?! Byeol, you only met him for like, what? 5 minutes?" Jihoon raised his voice
After that, I lost my nervousness. My nervousness got replaced with a hot aura.
"What do you expect? He was being so nice offering a ride to school instead of you guys who wouldn't even let me go back to my house!" I exclaimed
"We're trying to help you, you should be thankful!" Jihoon defended
"Thankful? Thankful?! Oh sure, I'll thank a group who seperates me and my sister." I shouted
"Byeol, she doesn't even know you anymore, she's with her own life!" Daniel butted in to the conversation
"Stop making this minor problem into a major one!"
"No, we're asking you because we need to know, we're your only hope of survival!" Jihoon said again
I can feel tears forming in my eyes, "My life never had any hope. Every person I thought I could rely on left me. So stop saying that you guys will protect me when you'll leave me one day." I said
With that, I stormed out of that classroom. I ran to the girl's washroom and when I saw it was empty, I quickly lean my back to the wall of the washroom. As I slide down, a tear fell down.
Why? Why am I always stuck with people who only makes my life much more complicated then it already is? Why am I always wrong? Why do I also make the wrong choices?
I hugged my knees and let out all of the doomed feelings I held back. Sobs and faint cries are the only sound that was only heard inside of this bathroom.
"Baby don't cry~ Tonight~"
When I heard someone's voice from outside, I immediately lift my head up. Did he perhaps hear me crying?
I stood up shakily and slowly opened the door to leave a little gap so I can take a peek. But when I opened it, someone outside forced it to open and now it is completely opened.
When it did, I was met by three faces that I often meet. Chanyeol, Sehun, and Taehyung. When they saw my crying face, their faces turned to show the look of guilty and pity.
That only made me more emotional so the three pulled me into a hug. I cried on mainly Chanyeol's chest because he was in the middle and he's tall. They all patted my head as my sobs got louder.
"W-Why do I have to have such complicated life? Why can't I have a normal life like other girls? Sometimes I-I envy seeing them smile, knowing that I can never be them. I-It hurts. I just wanna go. Go out of this world. Go back home. Go anywhere but here, in this situation." I said in the midst of sobbing
"Byeol, we're here for you." Sehun said
I shook my head, "Don't say that. Everybody who said that ended up disappointing me."
"Okay then, we're just gonna try and make you feel better." Taehyung said
I nodded my head slowly, "Thank you."

It was lunchtime. As usual, the three boys sticked with me the whole morning and now we sat down at our usual table. Sehun offered me food but I said no. I'm not in the mood to eat
"Come on, Byeol. You gotta eat." He whined but I just shook my head
"Byeol, I think he's coming this way." Chanyeol's voice immediately averted my gaze from Sehun's food to the canteen door, showing the 'big 4' + Daniel and Jihoon
They were all looking at me. I then averted my gaze back to Sehun's food. Looking at food is better than looking at anything else in this world.
"Can we join you guys?" Daniel's voice can be clearly heard behind me and I felt my body tightened a little
I front of me was Chanyeol and they gave him a 'whether or not' look. But then something caught my eye. It was that Samuel kid, sitting down alone.
Guess I have a plan.
"Sure?" Chanyeol answered, doubtfully
And so they sat down. Daniel and Jihoon was sitting on the either side of me but then I cleared my throat and stood up.
"Where are you going?" Sehun asked
"Somewhere else. I didn't know this table could be so packed." I said grabbing my backpack and walked away.
I made my way to Samuel's table and drop my backpack on the chair. He first gave me a confused look, but then gave me a smile. I replied with the same thing.
"How's your first day, new kid?" I said
"It was fine. But I still find the stares weird, you know. Like, I've never seen so many girls staring at me." He said
"There are more now that I just sat down." I whispered to him and he just smiled
"Why aren't you with your friends?" He asked
That made me look at them and guess what? That table was looking at us. I averted my gaze back to Samuel.
"Don't mind them. The table was just too full and I felt so tight there. Besides, I want to accompany you anyway." I said
