Her naturally soft striking features held a cold expression. For the life of her, Naeun truly never understood why people bullied others, especially when it was obviously unprovoked. As far as she could tell, Sakura had done nothing to these girls and yet the way they treated her friend was absolutely disgusting.
Leaning towards her friend, Naeun wanted Sakura to stand proud beside her. But she also knew just how uncomfortable this whole situation can for those who were actually getting bullied. She was so torn of being angry with those trainees, that she could practically feel herself shaking and in the verge of tears herself. But she had to be strong for Sakura right now.
She continues to glare at the girls, waiting for them to make any move against Sakura and herself. It didn’t take long for them to go, but she made sure they thought that Sakura and her were staying there just to prove a point. “Okay…” once the girls were out of their view, “we can go now.
I’m so sorry I didn’t get there earlier. The audacity of them.” Offering her friend a comforting hug, while trying to balance a try with her hands, “Are you okay?”
even with a big heart, there are circumstances that she wishes she could control but sakura can come to the terms that changing people is the impossible. they are responsible for what they do in their lives but from the bottom of her heart, she wanted what was best for everyone.
she is glad to have a friend that is willing to protect her from being prey among the wilderness in the building. sakura has no intentions of getting into trouble or drama at all but simply making friends. her eyes look over at naeun and confides in the solace that her friend is giving her, warmth and care. “thank you so much for being here for me, i appreciate it..” her voice takes a pause as she takes a deep breath, doing her best to get herself together from the devastating experience that she had just witnessed.
“i just wonder why people are like that..” she furrows her brows worriedly, the look of hurt evident on her features. “is it okay if i eat together with you, naeun-chan? if it’s not too much to ask..” she does not want to bother the girl but also wants to spend time with her friend.
those bullies are faces that she has to avoid at all times in order to preserve her safety now. she will not forget, ever.
