Chapter Five

The next morning, I wake up and start getting ready for school and I hear the dreaded sound of my uncle crashing around breaking things. Terrified I creep open the door and see what is happening. Drink in hand he sees me and screams "ITSSSS YOUR FAULT STUPID BITCH!" Coming at me full speed. I try to shut the door but he gets there in time and grabs me by my hair and starts dragging me through the house, once in the living room he gets on top of me and starts wailing on my body like a punching bag. My screams echoing the living room. After a few hits to the face I was too stunned to try and fight back. Mouth bleeding, sore ribs, who knows what else. He finally gets done and tells me how much he hates me and wishes I were never born; I wish the same. I do not even know what I did to deserve this, but he is right I do deserve it. I am stupid, and worthless. I get up after he leaves the house and slowly work on cleaning up myself and realize I am going to be late for school. I throw on some make up to hide whatever I can and a big hoodie and put the hood up and start to go to school wincing the whole way because it hurts to breathe let alone walk. I am not actually sure if I am going to make it but when I do I make it to my first class and sit down and try to find a spot to get comfortable and realize its impossible when what just happened happens to you. I feel eyes staring at me, but I don't even bother to look up I do not care who it is let them stare what worse can they do to me?

Yunho POV

Why does she hide herself today? I thought we were okay but now she is not even responding to my texts or looking at me. I want to introduce her to the rest of ATEEZ but considering me just looking at her got her hurt so badly maybe it is not the best idea. Maybe I should talk to the guys and see if we can each set on protecting her. It was my job when we were little, I should not fail her just because she fell into depression too deep to keep being my friend. She is like a little sister to me. I cannot fail her.

End of Yunho POV

After school ends uneventfully I decide not to go home because I don't want to chance him being there so I go to a nearby park that's by some water so I sit by it and I stay there for some time finishing my school work, listening to some music I also decide to write while I am there I have a lot of emotions so I pour it into writing. I write stories, lyrics just whatever comes to mind I even have a diary that I take everywhere and has everything that happens to me in it too. When it starts to get dark, I work on my way home. I get there and its empty no uncle. Pleased that it might be uneventful I make food, eat then prepare for bed. I do not even check my phone and just go to bed without anything happening.

Time skip

It has been a month and things with my uncle have progressively gotten worse, I fear one day he might kill me. Yunho has been over a couple times a week and my wrist is healing I think, I have an appointment next month to get the cast removed and see how the healing process is going. Things are starting to feel normal with him, I still haven't told him about uncle because I guess I hide it so well and uncle is always so nice to him when he comes over so it wouldn't seem legit anyway. Yunho says one day soon he will introduce me to all the ATEEZ so I am nervous and excited for that.
