Episode 4- Alone in the rain:

~the end of the school day~

Taehyun's pov:

I watched everyone walk towards the door to go home while I was making my way towards detention.. lucky me(!). As I walked through the hallways I heard faint footsteps that became louder and louder until I heard Soobin's giggle. I turned around slightly to look at Yeonjun giving a piggy back ride to him. I rolled my eyes annoyed continuing to walk.

We made our way into the detention room. I sat beside the door trying to listen in as hard to what they were saying as hard as I could. Yeonjun and Soobin we're leaning against the wall talking to each other. I didn't hear much, but I could understand that they were talking about me because I heard my name about 3 times. "Thank you again for sticking up for me, I really wish you didn't have detention, it should've been me instead in here", "don't say that", Yeonjun said smiling, "you don't need to owe me anything, protecting you was a part that needed to be filled. I WASN'T going to let you get hurt, Soobin". In the corner of my eye, I could see Soobin smiling . I leaned my head on my palm drifting off into my thoughts. But I did hear him telling Soobin to go home and that he'd be okay.

Yeonjun's pov:

I made my way near where Taehyun was sitting. "NEVER and I mean never, hurt Soobin again, do you understand?", I said looking at him stubbornly. He nodded looking down, I was SO close to laughing. Is Taehyun UPSET?! This is the first time I've ever seen him upset, whatever. I took out my book and started reading until the bell range and it was finally time to go home.

Soobin's pov:

I woke up to the feeling of my back leaning on the lockers next to the detention room. The second I yawned I knew I had fallen asleep. I never knew that detention was so long it felt like a DECADE and I had slept late yesterday so maybe that was it? I got up looking around but I couldn't see Yeonjun maybe he didn't see me? No that wasn't possible.. I-I was right outside the detention room.. maybe he ignored me.. b-but Yeonjun wouldn't do that!.. right?..

BOO!

I jumped turning around and slapped the sound. Fortunately, it wasn't a bad guy or anything.. but uh unfortunately.. it was Huening Kai.

"Oh my God I'm so sorry!", i said rubbing his cheek with my thumb, "it's no biggie", he said laughing pulling my hand down, "have you seen Yeon? I was waiting for him but then when I woke up he wasn't here", "oh he probably skipped detention or climbed out the window or something", "o-oh right", i said looking down. "You should get home Soo-Soo, it's getting late", Kai told me, "your right", I nodded and put my bag on my back, "would you want me to walk you home?", he asked me when I was near the gate, "no thank you", I replied smiling and started making my way home.

The second I got out of the gate my smile turned into a frown, 'how could Yeon forget me?' Was the only thing In my thoughts. I walked through the short and narrow road, it would've meant I got home earlier and it was already late as it is. I walked through the abandoned streets looking around me. It felt as if a million eyes were staring at me straight through my body. 'I'm okay, I'm okay', I kept repeating in my head, but my gut feeling knew that deep down inside I wasn't safe..

I felt raindrops falling against my nose which made me flinch. I looked up to see the white clouds turn black in anger as they cried upon my head. Great, just great (!) I didn't have a jacket and I still had 20-25 minutes left until I reached home.. great..

I was half way into my walk. My head felt heavy and I couldn't feel my soft feet against the hard concrete.. I was freezing and shivering to death as I walked over to the fence where I slipped through into the forest. I reached a tree trunk where I crouched and sat down leaning my back against it. I was soaking wet, my shirt and jeans wet from top to bottom. I took out my phone covering it with my head from the rain as water dripped from the strands of my hair. I scrolled through my contacts reading the names out loud to myself,

Sarah..

Jacob..

Emily..

HUENING KAI!

I pressed on his contact information and messaged him. I hope he answers..

Huening Kai:

Me: Hey Huening Kai? Are you there? I need help, please reply (!)

What?! WHAT DO YOU MEAN 'not delivered'?! I checked my settings, I had forgotten to pay for my monthly data.. DAMN IT! I tried calling him but I got no response. I had to do the only thing I could do.. keep scrolling.

Huening Kai..

Riley..

Stephanie..

BEOMGYU!

I called Beomgie desperately but still no response.. DOESN'T ANYONE PICK UP THEIR PHONES THESE DAYS?! My tears started to roll down my face like a river that was out of hope.. I was all alone.. no one was going to help me.. and I lost all hope, well almost.. I had one hope left..

Yeonjun..

I looked up at the rain and gulped as I placed the phone that was ringing against my cold ear but all I heard was ringing..

Please Yeon.. please pick up..

Yeonjun's pov:
