The Story of Us

< Baek Hee's POV>


SMACK!

"You useless little shits! Can't you do anything correctly?" My mother yells at us.

She slaps my brother and kicks me. We lay both lay there on the ground as my mother grabs her keys and walks out of the house. I sit up and start to cry as my brother wraps his arms around me. Baekhyun was 7 years old and I was 5 years old.

At first, I thought we had the perfect mother ever. But now she is different. She changed after he left. He as in my father of course. On that day, they were arguing in their room until I heard the door slam. My father came out with two suitcases. Baekbeom, Baekhyun, and I just stare at him as he walks towards us. He gives me and Baekhyun a kiss on the forehead then he grabs Baekbeom's arm and they walk out of the house. After that, we never saw them again.

My mother started drinking after that day. She would come home drunk and she would randomly beat you and Baekhyun. We as little kids were forced to do everything. If we didn't we weren't fed for days. Good thing our neighbors would help us and feed us on days when she never came home. When she did come home, she was sober, she smelt like men and alcohol. We were afraid of her. that's how we lived for years.


When my brother was 17 and I was 15, we were both working two jobs while balancing school. We had to work and pay my mother's huge debt. She still abused us and still went drinking.

One time a came home from work and she was in the kitchen cutting carrots. I put my shoes away and walked in towards the kitchen. she turned and look at me.

"Where the hell have you been?" She said yelling at me.

"I was working to pay for your debt." I said back

"This little shit. Don't you fucking talk back to me!" She said pointing the knife in her hands at me.

I turn around and walk towards my room.

"This little shit." She walks towards me still holding the knife and grabs my shoulder and pushes me against the wall.

"Ahh!" I yell in pain.

"Listen carefully. Don't you ever talk back or walk away from me!" Sh yells and she swipes the knife across my stomach making it bleed.

"Yes ma'am." I say in pain. She throws the knife onto the floor and walks away.

I sit there crying as I hear the door close. I sit there sobbing for a while before I get up and walk to the sink. The front door suddenly opens and Baekhyun walks in. I run and hug him. I start to cry again.

"Hey, what happened?" He pulls me back and sees a long trail of blood on my shirt. He pulls it up and my stomach was full of blood.

"She did it." I say and I cry harder.

"Okay, let's get you cleaned up." He says pulling me to the kitchen.

We walk into the kitchen and he goes grab the first aid kit as I sit on the counter. He lifts up my shirt and starts to clean the wound. We stay there in silence.

After about 4 minutes or so...

"I can't keep living like this anymore. I really want to leave." I say.

"I know. I do too. Let's have you finish high school and we will find a place far away from here." He says

"Alright. Thanks oppa. Thanks for always being here for me." I say and get off the counter. I hug him and we go to the bedroom that we share. We did our homework and then got ready for bed.



< Years Later >

It's been years now. I finished high school and was able to finish College early. Baekhyun finished College and we runaway from that which. We were able to find a small place for the two of us and life was a little better without her.

"Are you ready?" My brother says looking at me.

"Better now then never." I say and we walk through the doors into SM Entertainment.
