'I should apologize to Mingyu today. The stupid fight we had yesterday is pointless.' These thoughts run through Wonwoo his head as he walks up onto the school grounds. He had been thinking a lot about the words Mingyu said.

The thing is you see, Wonwoo never saw Mingyu actually hurt someone. And the more he thought about it the more he felt guilty about saying those things from last night. 'But then he has a reputation of being a bully that can't just be for nothing now can it?'. While thinking this Wonwoo walking in to the classroom and took his seat at the back.

For some reason the morning seemed quiet. But Wonwoo couldn't quite figure out why... it was as if something was missing, and then it stuck him. Mingyu! Normally the tall boy would have been flirting around the girls from class, making the life of the teacher hard or at least get a detention slip.

He looked around and saw Mingyu wasn't there. ''where could he be..'' Wonwoo muttered to himself. And with a loud ring the bell rang through the halls. ''Maybe he's in the cafeteria'' he goes on talking to himself. He quickly grabs his bag and walks to the cafeteria in search to find him.

''I thought I told you to quit smoking'' that are the last words Mingyu heard before his father hit his cheek. Mingyu didn't expect it and by the force of the blow and hit his head against the wall before passing out. He slowly opens his eyes and feels a banging pain in his head.

As his eyes scanned the room he saw his father left. He lets out a sigh from relief, yet still aware his father could still be in the house. Books are scattered across the floor, his homework teared apart. His desk wasn't in any better condition either. Normally Mingyu keeps his room clean, but now it looked like a bunch of burglars broke in and ransacked the place.

''I will have to clean it up once I'm back from school..'' he mumbles softly. ''school shit what time is it even!'' he looks around and tries to look for either his watch or phone, but as his eyes land on the clock first he's shocked to see its already this late.

''11:37 I should get to school... I have that stupid test later''. And on that note he sits up only to feel his a stinging pain in his stomach. He drags himself out of bed and into the washroom avoiding the mess on the floor, carefully stepping on the spots you could just barely see the floor. After taking off his clothes he sees a huge bruise on his stomach and a couple of other on the rest of his body. ''Dad really did a number on me this time..''.

He quickly takes a shower and gets changed into his uniform. ''well at least the uniform covers most of it up..''. Then walks back to the bathroom and takes a little make-up to hide the bruise on his face, from where his dad hit him. ''this should do'' he says as gets back to his room and looks around to find his bag not caring to get the right books.

He rushes downstairs and sees a note on the table saying: ''I'll be back''. He picks it up and immediately throws it in the trash. Grabs his keys and leaves the house. ''It's good mom is on a business trip.'' He thinks by himself as he steps in his car and drives to school. When he arrives the morning classes are already over and the lunchbreak is just about to start.

As he walks to the cafeteria he sits down at the usual table, together with Vernon Seokmin, Jun, S.coups and Woozi. ''Hey where were you this morning?'' Vernon asks before passing him a tray with food. ''None of your business'' Mingyu growls back and starts eating in silence .

He walks into the cafeteria, quickly standing in line to get his lunch. 'Ugh they serve pizza today' his stomach was growling as he looked at the richly topped slices. After getting his food he looked around and saw Mingyu. 'This is it. I'm just going to go to him and apologize.' He walks over towards the table where Mingyu and his friends were sitting. With each step he takes feeling his legs are harder to move. And the pit in his stomach grow.

Finally reaching the table he coughed slowly to get Mingyu's attention. ''Looksie who we got here'' Seokmin smirked and threw his arm around Wonwoo making him shiver. ''Back for more?'' he added.

Mingyu POV:

I keep having this weird feeling that someone is watching me. I did spot Wonwoo, I wonder if I was too harsh on him yesterday... oh he's coming over. 'What does his cute ass want now' I chuckled. Seokmin immediately threw his arm around him and said ''Looksie who we got here, back for more?''.Tthe way Wonwoo shivered makes me wonder if there's something going on..
