danna quickly set jonghyun on the ground and stood in front of him protectively. 

the attackers said nothing to her, and one placed his hand on her shoulder, shoving her out of the way easily. she fell to the side, wincing in pain, while another struck her with a kick to her head to keep her immobilized. the blow had broken the skin and she could feel a small trickle of blood falling down the side of her face. yet she still managed to drag herself towards the crying child and she pulled him into her arms, holding him close. 

"what do you want?" she asked her attackers weakly. as she looked around, she saw her driver had been subdued as well. he was laying on the ground unconscious. "if you want money, take it. i have a lot of it. take my purse, my phone, take the car too." she reached for her fallen bag on the sidewalk and tossed it at their feet.

still, they said nothing to her.

sorry i took a two week hiatus from this story, guys. the thing is that after i posted the last chapter and the face reveal, and after two years of absolute smooth sailing between us, A and i got into a massive argument. it was the same day i posted the face reveal. i'll give more details later. but the point is we talked it out. then a week after that we got into another huge argument. but again, we talked it out and we're doing fine.

but anyway, about a month and a half before quarantine started, we went to disneyland on feb 3rd. i told him i really wanted to go bc i felt like the coronavirus was gonna be big (i was right) and i wouldn't be able to go to disneyland in a while. so we went together. it was fun. it was then that we were texting everyday and playing trivia crack every day.

feb 5th we went to the mall with moira. feb 8th we went to our friend rose's baby's first birthday party. all our friends went except the evil sisters and jav. feb 16th i found out i was gonna be an aunt. my sister is pregnant. feb 20th i went to eat at golden corral with john and A. we had a really good time poking fun at john bc he kept going to the restroom to "make space" for more food. 

feb 22nd we went to target together bc my mom needed a new microwave. such a manly gentleman he carried that microwave all the way to the car without breaking a sweat. he's a literal spaghetti noodle, but he can lift heavy objects. feb 23rd i picked him up from work because there was a marathon in town and his mom couldn't get through the traffic from their side of slauson ave. feb 26th, he taught me how to pick a good cantaloupe at the grocery store.
