Since this town was the size of a cantalope, everybody in school heard what happened to me and ever since I walked through the doors, they haven't took their eyes off of me.
"Mind your own freaking business people! She's just a human! No pictures please!" Hanbin escorted me through the hallway full of people staring at me. What he said earned him an elbow in his ribs.
We got to my locker in one piece and Hanbin looked around then back at me, "You're like famous now," I rolled my eyes as he stared at me. "They need to leave you alone," he looked around, "And get a life!" he screamed. He looked back at me and rolled his eyes, "Drama suckers,"
I chuckled and threw my backpack in my in my locker. It was just the start of the day and I already knew that it was going to be a rough day.
The hospital let me leave, which of course they asked if I was able to leave or if I even wanted to leave, and I never agreed to anything faster in my life. I hated hospitals and the memories that come with them, so of course I wanted to leave that place as soon as possible.
Hanbin heard what happened and came to visit me the day I was getting released. His parents were with him and they came to me with open arms and told me how sorry they were when they heard what happened.
I never felt more like I belong to a family more than I did around them.
Hanbin wanted to bring me to school this morning and I didn't argue. Miss Chou understood, and I think she was a little jealous because she didn't even smile or talk to Matt hardly when they were there.
I haven't heard anything from Yoona since she came to visit me, she hasn't even been home which I'm use to, so it's not like it's going to affect me in any way. She's been doing this for what, four years?
I kind of want to believe her on what she told me, but a part of me still doesn't believe her enough. She tells me all kinds of lies, and I can't trust her anymore. She acted like she was telling the truth, but I don't know.
Some people will tell you something but their actions won't match their words.
The day sort of dragged on. I got plenty of stares from everyone which I'm not surprised, because like I said, this town is small and rumors will fly through it in a heartbeat. Everyone in the school, including the teachers, knew what happened.
I hate all the attention. I'm use to coming to school and no one even bats an eye at me, but now since I was 'almost killed', like everyone says, nobody has stopped looking at me.
Instead of eating in the cafeteria at lunch, Hanbin decided to take me to the library. He says that hardly anybody goes there and it'll be better for me instead of everyone walking me eat.
I couldn't thank him enough, and I don't think I ever will. He's seriously the best.
We found a table in the corner of the library and sat down. There wasn't hardly anyone here except for a few people on the computers. It was a nice and quiet place and I loved staying in here when I didn't know anyone.
This is the only place I stayed at before I met Hanbin. I didn't like anyone here and me being the outsider I am, I didn't interact with other people. I didn't make eye contact or anything. I stayed to myself. Even when I was put into group projects, I let everyone else do the work and I would sit on the side and watch.
When Hanbin came into my life, it was like I could finally be myself and not have to hide anymore. I do admitt, I don't talk to anyone other than Hanbin, but at least I have Hanbin.
We talked for a few minutes while eating, and it felt good to not have everyone staring at me. I hate being the center of attention, and I don't understand why they have to watch me like I'm an alien.
I guess if you have something happen to you in a town that's the size of a freaking cantalope, everyone will hear about it in the next twenty four hours and won't stop looking at you.
"So, is Yoona really going to do that?" Hanbin asked as he was sipping his water.
I told Hanbin what Yoona said to me in the hospital. I still don't fully believe her because of all the lies she's told me these last four years, maybe more. I mean, she's been to rehab a few times, but she always gets out in a month and she's back to doing the same shit.
Why is this time any different? Because I almost got killed from her drug dealers? Oh yeah, the sister award goes to Yoona Minatozaki, everyone.
I can't believe it took almost killing me to finally realize that she's a total fuck up and she actually admitted it. What a fucking great sister.
I shrugged and stared down at the table. "I don't know to be honest. She's been lying to me for so long and I don't know if I could believe her or not," it was a lose of hope if I actually thought she would change.
"Has she said anything else to you afterwards?" I looked up to meet his eyes then shook my head.
"I haven't seen her since then," she hasn't been home and she didn't come back when I was released.
I honestly thought she was going to change but I guess I shouldn't get my hopes up because no matter what Jessica says, she never changes.

Miss Chou agreed to take me home after school, and Hanbin was more than happy to allow her. He smiled so damn big and I wanted to hit him so damn hard.
He seriously needs to stop because one day, I really will hit him.
"Sana, can you help me take some boxes out to my car?" she snapped me out of my daze as I was standing in her classroom after the bell rung. I nodded and grabbed a box that she told me to grab.
We walked out of the building and into the parking lot where her car was, and I was thinking about class today. Hanbin kept telling me that she was glancing over at me every once in a while and when I would look at her, she'd look away.
I hate when she does that because I know she does it, and my heart skips a beat everytime. She keeps messing with my heart and I don't know how much longer I can take it.
I mean, she was the one who wanted nothing to do with me anymore, so why the hell was she doing this?
She still agreed to take me home and pick me up. She stayed with me in the hospital. She stares at me in class. What the hell is this woman doing, destroying my heart?
I put the box in the her trunk and she shut it. She smiled at me, "Thank you," I smiled back and walked to the passenger side of her car.
She unlocked the doors and we both got it. I sat my backpack in the floorboard to make sure I didn't forget it this time. Although I wouldn't mind her coming back and bringing it to me, because I don't mind when she's near anyway, but I don't want to forget it again.
I buckled my seatbelt up and thought about Yoona. I wonder if she's home, and if she was, what was going to happen? All I could think about was about what she said ever since I saw her. I hope she sticks to her word because I really want her to get better.
She deserves to get better because I hate seeing her like this. I always hated what she's been doing and I pray every night that she gets the help she needs.
Although she's done what she did to me all these years, she's still my sister and I still love her.
I look over at Miss Chou as she's driving. She's so beautiful and I hate how I still have a stupid crush on her. I shouldn't because my heart can't take this abuse that she's doing to me.
She glances at me and I look away. I sigh then look out the window. Why must she keep doing this to me?
"Sana?" I look back over at her as she glancing at me. "What's wrong?"
It's now or never.
I shrug, "Why are you doing this?" she gives me a confused look but I just sigh. "Why are you doing all of this? Being around me, taking me home, anything that has to do with me, why? You told me that you wanted nothing to do with me anymore," I stare at her as she glances at the road.
I hear her sigh, "I never said I wanted nothing to do with you, Sana,"
"You kind of did," she glances at the road for a moment then back at me.
She didn't say anything but her eyes held something more than words could ever say. I couldn't figure it out through because I never can when it comes to her. It's like she has an invisibe force field up when I want to know something, but then it's down when she lets me in.
She's confusing as hell.
Before I had the chance of saying anything, we were already pulling up in my driveway. I noticed a car parked in front but I didn't recognize it. It didn't look familiar at all.
Miss Chou shut the engine off then looked at me. "You have visitors," I looked at her and gave her a 'duh' look. "Don't get smart with me," I literally didn't even say anything.
I chuckled, "Why would you say that when I can see that?" she smiled a little then looked back at the car. I looked at it to and tried to figure out who it could be.
Miss Chou turned towards me, "Do you want me to walk to the door with you?" is she serious?
I stared at her for a moment, "No. I can walk myself," this damn woman.
I grabbed my backpack then got out. I walked around her car and up the porch. I turned back and saw her waiting in the driveway until I went inside. I rolled my eyes and grabbed the door knob, but before I had the chance to open it, someone already opened it.
It was a girl, and she was really pretty.
Beyond stunning.
She smiled at me and I smiled back. I seen Yoona behind her and we made eye contact. "Oh, you're home," I nodded as I moved out of the way and watched that girl carry a bag off the porch. I looked back at Yoona as she was looking at me.
"What's going on?" I looked back at the girl as she was putting the bag in the car. The car must belong to her.
I looked back at Yoona as she was looking at the girl too. She looked back towards me, "I'm going to rehab," I was in shock as I stared at her. She smiled a little then nodded towards the girl, "She's my friend who convinced me to go,"
I stared at her, "I thought I was," she told me that I was the reason she changed her mind and wanted to go.
She nodded, "You are, but she's the one who convinced me on going," I looked back at the girl as she was walking back towards us.
She smiled at me and I couldn't help but smile.
Yoona spoke after a moment, "Nana," I looked at her as she was looking at me. "This is Rose," I looked back at the girl as she was looking at me and I smiled.
She held her hand out, "Hi, nice to meet you," I shook her hand and never broke eye contact with her. I swear this girl was beautiful.
"Nana," I shook my thoughts and looked at Yoona. "Is that your teacher?"
I looked over my shoulder and noticed Miss Chou was still in the driveway. She was looking at me and I couldn't help but wonder why she hasn't left yet.
I looked back at Yoona and nodded, "Yeah, be right back," I walked off the porch and made my way to her car. It didn't make any sense why she was still here.
She rolled down her window as I was approaching her car. "What's going on?" she asked as she was looking at me.
I stared at her, "Why are you still here?" I didn't mean for it to come out as mean, and I hope she didn't take it like that.
"I was just making sure you were going to get inside safe," she looked passed me then back at me, "So, what's going on?"
I looked over my shoulder at Yoona and Rose then back at her, "Yoona is going to rehab,"
Her eyes widened as she looked at me, "That's amazing," she smiled up at me as I smiled back. "But, if she's going to rehab, who's going to stay here with you?"
I stared at her, "I can stay by myself," I mean, I'm not a child.
She smiled slightly, "I didn't mean it like that, but you can't stay here by yourself and expect to pay the bills," oh, well she did have a point. How the hell was the bills going to get paid? Yoona is the one who pays them, and she pays it with drug money. If she's in rehab and not on drugs, how the hell was we going to keep the house and electricity?
Before I had a chance to say anything, Miss Chou was already getting out of her car. I watched as she walked around me and I followed her up the stairs and onto the porch.
I watched as she greeted Yoona and she greeted her back. They talked for a minute and then the subject came up.
"I don't know. I didn't think of that," Yoona looked at me then back at Miss Chou, "She will have to stay with someone I guess," she looked at me again, "Until I get out,"
"When is that suppose to be?" For real, how long was she planning on staying there.
She shrugged, "I'm not sure. Maybe a few months," she stared at me, "You can't stay here by yourself. I'll have to get the electricity shut off until then because nobody can pay it,"
Great, just great. Where the hell was I suppose to stay?
Miss Chou glanced at me for a moment before looking back at Yoona. What the hell? She was up to something and I'm not sure if I liked it or not.
Was she about to..
"She can stay with me," I stared at her as I was trying to comprehend what she just said. Yoona looked at her too with the same expression as me. "Until you get out or until she finds somewhere else to stay," she glanced back at me and I couldn't be more pissed off.
Why the hell is she doing this.
Yoona looked at me, "Is that ok?"
I shrugged, "I guess," I really didn't want that to happen but what the hell ever.
Maybe it'll be fun, or maybe my heart will continue to stay broken.
