Authors Note: I’m sincerely sorry for not updating as I promised. I just started Uni, and has been off in my head lately. I’m so sorry! ;-;
Waking up by the feeling of joy was something Hailey wasn’t used to. She had this dream in her head that she one day would wake up with a loving mother and father. But she never expected to have a brother either.
A knock on the door was heard when had turned off her alarm. She looked at the door where her mother walked in. Her mother had a beautiful smile on her lips while holding her school uniform.
”It looks perfect, doesn’t it?” She asked. Hailey looked at her mother for a while before answering.
”Yes, mother. Thank you!” Hailey said as she sat up in the bed. Her mother sat down on the bed beside her while taking some hair away from her face. She studied her face for a while before talking.
”It’s weird hearing you be formal with me. You’ve been acting weird lately, not wanting to speak in Korean or even hang out with anyone but Wonho. Now you hanged out with Minhyuk all of the sudden?” She asked with a laugh in the end. Hailey started to smile a little by the thought.
”I’m sorry for being weird. I guess it’s been tough in school.. But me and the others are friends again. So please don’t worry” Hailey said while smiling. Her mother nodded her head and walked towards the door before turning around again.
”Your brother asked if you wanted a ride to the boys by him today after school?” She asked. Hailey looked at her while thinking.
”Oh yeah forgot! Uhm he can drive me if he treats me some food first!”
Her mother laughed and nodded her head before walking out of the room. Hailey took her phone out and searched for a text from Meli about meeting up before school, but there were none. She changed into her school uniform and fixed herself before walking out to the breakfast table. And there she was, Meli.
”There you are.. I thought you would message me or something” Hailey said as she sat down.
”What? I never do that… I’m always here eating breakfast” Meli said and smiled for herself. Hailey looked at her before remembering her big brother who sat right in front of Meli. She laughed and looked at her mother who gave her a rice bowl. She thanked and started to eat.
”So I’m picking you up from school and will drive you to the building, what do you want to eat after school?” Her brother asked.
”Hmm.. B..Bulgogi!!” She said with excitement in her voice. He nodded his head and walked away from the table. She looked after him and thought about Minhyuk and what had happened yesterday. She gulped and choked on her water.
”So what you’re saying is that I have to stay with Hailey all weekend?”
Hailey looked at her friend who spoke to her parents in the phone. They walked down the road towards the exit where Haileys brother was waiting. Hailey waved her hand towards him, making him wave back with a smile on his lips.
”Uhm Hailey..” Meli said.
”I know! I guess you’re going to be with me all day” Hailey said while dragging her towards her brother. They walked to the car and Hailey did a sign to him which made him open the door for Meli.
”I’ll give a notice to Shownu” He said when he walked to his side. Hailey looked at him before sitting down in the front seat beside her brother. She looked back at her friend who had her eyes on him. Hailey smiled for herself.
”So Taeyang, are you driving us home later? Or…” Meli asked. Hailey smiled at her answer and looked out of the window while studying the view. Something Hailey had noticed since she woke up that morning was the beautiful view she got to see every morning.
”Hmm maybe!” He said smiling at her in the mirror. Meli blushed and looked out her too.
After eating Bulgogi, they went to Starship to find their friends. Taeyang parked his car in the garage and they took the elevator up to the right floor. Hailey looked around remembered the kiss with Minhyuk once again. She stopped in her steps and looked back at Meli who seemed confused by her stopping.
”Uhm can you two go before me? Just go inside and text me if Minhyuk is there, okay? I need to go to the bathroom” Hailey said before quickly walking away.
She searched for the bathroom and locked herself inside. She looked at herself in the mirror and brushed her hair slowly. A vibration was heard from her pocket and she looked at the screen of her phone.
He’s here with some girl. - Meli <3
Hailey felt her nervous smile disappearing, and she sighed. She fixed her hair and walked towards the room. She knocked on the door before walking inside. The first thing she noticed was Minhyuk holding hands with a girl, which made Hailey hurt. But they were friends and nothing else.
”Where were you?” Kihyun asked, making Minhyuk turn his eyes towards her. She met his gaze and looked away at Kihyun.
”I was just talking to someone”
”Ohhhh she talked to Jake, I’m sure of it” Changkyun said with a grin on his face. She rolled her eyes and shook her head as an answer. She sent a gif to Wonhos phone in need of help.
”Did you talk to him?” Minhyuk asked. Hailey looked at him without answering before she walked to Wonho who seemed to be smiling at his phone. She sat down beside him.
”MY HAILEY IS HERE! SHALL WE DATE?” He screamed out loud. Hailey jumped in her seat and looked at him surprised before laughing.
”Are you forever alone?” She asked.
”I’m tired of Minhyuk always having his girlfriend over!” He said while giving Minhyuk the evil eye. Hailey smiled at him and jumped up in his knee.
”You can date me! I’m single” She said with a proud smile. He laughed and gave her one of the most sweetest hugs anyone can give.
”Ehh excuse me, I’m here!” Meli said. Hailey looked at Meli and stood up from her seat. She laughed and walked over to her again.
”Soooooooo Meli will be with me literally all weekend. So I’ll probably not be here the coming days” Hailey said making everyone turn their head towards her.
”You promised to help us this weekend with the vlive!” Kihyun said.
”Yeah, and you were going to cook for my date too” Minhyuk said. Hailey looked at him and rolled her eyes before giving Kihyun the attention again. She shrugged and sat down again while thinking for a moment.
”I can get home by myself Hailey! You don’t need to babysit me” Meli said while laughing a little. Hailey looked at her and shook her head while smiling.
”That’s definitely not what I meant Meli”
”I’ll drive her home, if you want to join me now?” Taeyang said from the corner near the door. Everyone turned their attention to him and Meli nodded her head quickly.
”Yeah, I need to study! So stay here and help the boys with everything”
The practice for the boys turned into an hour of soft and chill. Hailey spent her time studying since she loved the subject they were working on. Once in a while she found herself staring at Minhyuk and his girlfriend who seemed to be having fun on their phones.
Hailey was that girl who didn’t say anything even though someone was hurting her. She kept her smile on her lips through everything and tried her best to act like it was okay. Someone who always kept hurting her was Jake. The guy who she had been dating for quite a while. The guy who was the ”perfect” guy for her.
”Hailey” a voice said by her side. Hailey opened her eyes and looked at Hyungwon who had a smile on his lips.
”oh.. Uhm what’s the clock?”
”It’s 11pm.. So you should get home” He said and helped her up. She stood up and looked around at the empty room. The other guys had already left and she was alone with Hyungwon. Something that hurt by that was Minhyuk. She wanted him to wake her up and take her home, but he was probably busy with his girlfriend.
”Hyungwon, I can go home by myself” Hailey said when they walked out of the building. He looked down at her with eyes filled with severity. She laughed a little and walked with him on the empty street of Gangnam.
”So Hailey, I have a question for you” He suddenly said with his eyes on the ground and hands in his pockets. He had a black mask over his mouth to hide his beautiful face for fans.
”You’re free to ask!”
”Do you like Min?”
”No.. Why would yo..” She started. Hyungwon laughed.
”Because you stared at him during the whole practice before falling asleep. We all noticed it you know” He said with a grin. Hailey looked down at the ground while blushing a little.
”Pfft.. You even called his name in your sleep to save you” He said while looking infront of them. She followed his gaze and noticed Kihyun and Changkyun at GS25. She smiled and dragged Hyungwon with her towards them.
They walked into the store and followed the boys to the snacks corner where they seemed to be pick whatever was on the list.
”Hailey, what are you doing here?” a voice asked behind her back. She turned around facing Wonho and Minhyuk. She gulped by the face of Minhyuk and looked after Hyungwon.
”We came here together” Hyungwon said when he showed up by her side. Wonho nodded his head and looked at the clock.
”She needs to get home now” He said. Hailey rolled her eyes and shook her head while taking Hyungwons arm. They walked to the ice cream corner and she picked out her favourite flavour.
”Ice cream this late?” Hyungwon asked with a grin. She nodded and walked to the cashier and payed for both. They walked out of the store and she sat on the stairs and opened hers.
”You should really get home” He said. She shrugged and ate her ice cream in silence when Minhyuk came out of the store. She ignored him and looked for Wonho.
”Hyungwon, I will take over from here! Kihyun told me to take over” Minhyuk said. Hyungwon nodded and gave Hailey a warm hug before walking back in with the others. She looked at Minhyuk for a while before walking away from him.
”Ey, wait for me” He yelled. She shook her head in frustration and looked at the board for the bus home. He walked up to her and called for a cab while holding her wrist.
”Let go of me! I can finally understand why I was angry at you from the start” She said looking up at him.
”Why?” He asked with worried expression.
”Because you’re acting like you own me, like I’m your little baby. But guess what Min! I’m just some years younger than you, and I’m my own person. If I want to go clubbing at night, please let me! I’m not your baby and never will be” Hailey said in rage. He looked at her surprised and released his grip from her wrist. She gulped and looked for a bus once again.
”I’m sorry.. But at least let me take you home” He said. Hailey looked at him and smiled.
”You’re not my boyfriend, so nope”
He sighed out of frustration and looked at her leaving with the bus. Hailey looked out of the window and met his gaze before leaving. He sighed and walked home.
What you expect for falling asleep, is to wake up the next morning in your bed. But for Haileys case it was to wake up in Korea again, where she felt at home. That was her biggest dream when she fell asleep every night.
The light from the sun entered the bedroom with a scream. Hailey opened her eyes slowly and noticed her bedroom, her real bedroom. She panicked and got up from her bed and dressed herself. She walked down the stairs and looked around.
”No.. Please tell me I’m dreaming”
”Oh you’re up! School starts in 2 hours” Her mother said walking past her with a cup of coffee. She looked at her mother and ran back up to her room and searched for her phone. She found it with the same numbers Korea. She searched for Melis number and texted her.
”Meli, I’m in U.S.. Help me get back! /Hailey”
Hailey looked at her phone in panic and grabbed her bag and the snow globe before running downstairs and out of the house.. She took the bus to school and searched for her teacher.
”Hailey” he said from the room behind her. She walked into the classroom and saw him writing on the board. She looked at him and closed the door behind her.
”I need your help! It’s the snow globe”
”Yes, I can see that you’re here” He whispered without taking his eyes off the board. She looked at him in frustration and were about to cry.
”Why am I here?” Hailey asked while holding her hands to her chest.
”This can happen when something is done wrong” He says, concentrating on the board.
”You went to a place where something already had happened, and your mission to stay is to fix that matter. So what did you do wrong?” He asked looking back at her.
”I…I was at the dance practice.. and I fell asleep. Wait… Me and Minhyuk had a fight before I left” Hailey said. He crossed his arms and sat down at the table.
”There you have your problem! Apparently you will get back if you go to bed without being friends”
”But.. I can’t just stay quiet”
”No, but you can stop fighting before going to sleep” He said. Hailey stayed quiet and stared at the floor.
”I want to go back” She mumbled. He smiled by her words and were about to answer when the door opened.
”Hailey! What are you doing here? I was going to drive you as usual!” Jake said furious. She looked at him and gulped by seeing his face. Mr Park stood up from his seat and made eye contact.
”Hello Jake! I asked her to be early today” He said. Jake looked at him before giving Hailey a look. She looked at Jake and smiled a little.
”I’m done with you walking around like you own the world. I want you by the stairs every morning from now on, you heard me?!” Jake demanded. Hailey nodded slowly and and looked down at the floor. Jake left the room and closed the door behind him.
”Why do you agree with him?” Mr Park asked.
”What do you mean? He’s my boyfriend”
”No, you’re his slave. My advice for you is to break up with him and follow your heart”
”Yes, go to Korea when you’re finished here. I can help you. ”
”I don’t know Mr Park.. My parents would never let me..”
”You’re a grown up woman now, do what you want” He said and she nodded slowly before walking to the door. She was about to open the door when she thought about Minhyuk.
”Do you think Minhyuk would be in the US if it weren’t for monsta x?”
”Probably. He’s a really smart kid, someone you would be happy with” He said while looking down at his papers. She smiled for herself and opened the door.
”Oh right, here” He said and gave her a paper. She looked at it and then at him, wondering what it was.
”It’s a guide to the snow globe. I prepared it for you” He said. She smiled and bowed to him before walking out the door.
”Take care of yourself” He said in Korean. She smiled for herself and walked to her class. She looked at her phone after a text from Meli, but there was no trace after her. Hailey sighed and sat down in her seat, and found Jake beside her. She looked down at the paper infront of her.
”I can’t believe you! You’re turning into a really bad person” He said. She sighed and looked at him.
”I’m sorry, it’s just that I couldn’t sleep. I was scared that I failed the assignment” Hailey whispered. He sighed by her side and gave her a peek on her chin.
”Okay, I understand. As long as you get the highest grade. We don’t want you to get an B right” He said with a smile. She nodded and looked at the board.
Once again she sat by her boyfriends side and didn’t say anything when he kept on being a jerk towards her. The pain in her chest was getting worse, and all she wanted was to get back to the people that tried to take care of her, something that didn’t really exist in her life.
A vibration was heard which made everyone look at her in surprise. She looked at everyone until she realized it was her phone. She looked at the screen and smiled for herself when she saw Minhyuks name on it. She stood up from her seat.
”I’m sorry Mr Anderson! It’s my mother” Hailey said and walked out of her class with Jake staring at her back in jealousy. She closed the door behind her and answered the call.
”Where are you? You weren’t at school, and you were going to be here hours ago! Why are you ignoring me?” Minhyuk screamed over the phone. She smiled for herself.
”Something came up.. I’m sorry” She whispered.
”I heard from your mother.. You’re in the US right?” He mumbled.
”Well she said you were there. You’re looking for this Jake guy right?”
”Min.. why do you even care about Jake?
”Because I’m your bestie, which means that I’m better for you than some American playboy” He yelled. Hailey started to laugh.
”Yes you are.. You’re a better kisser.. ”
”Kisser?! KISSER?!” someone screamed behind her back. It was Jake.
”Who’s that?” Minhyuk asked on the other end. Hailey stared at Jake and gulped.
”SO THAT’S WHY YOU’RE BEING WEIRD! YOU’RE KISSING SOMEONE ELSE NOWADAYS! ” Jake screamed as he walked up to her. She took a step back.
”Jake.. calm down.. It’s not…”
”Not what? Listen clearly. I own you, you’re mine. I’m the one for you, you don’t get it?”
”Jake stop” Hailey said as he pushed her against the lockers. She looked at him with fear in her eyes and heard Minhyuk on the other end screaming for her to go away.
”No, you’re mine!” He said with dark eyes. She felt a pain on her chin which made her squeal in pain. She looked at Jake who just hit her. She felt her tears slowly falling.
”Remember Hailey! Keep it up like this and you’ll be dead” He whispered. She closed her eyes when Mr Park came out of his room. He walked over to her.
”What happened?” He asked in Korean. She cried in his arms and gave him her phone. He looked at her for some seconds before taking it.
”Hello” He said. He looked at Hailey and gave her a little smile before explaining the situation.
”No don’t! She’ll be back.. No listen. No” He said before looking at the phone. She looked up at him wondering what happened.
”He’s on his way to you” He whispered. She stared at him and panicked once again. Minhyuk was leaving Korea to get Hailey home. But little did she know, that she was going to follow him to Korea.
The clock was 02:37 when the call came. The call that made Hailey take her suitcase and walk down the stairs. She walked out of the door and saw Mr Park in his car waiting for her. She waved her hand at him and got help with the suitcase. He opened the door for her.
”So are you ready for this?” He asked.
”I’m going my own way.. And I have you to thank”
”Hailey, you’re like my own daughter.” He said. She smiled at him and looked out of the window.
”And you’re like my real father..”
The car ride to the airport took about 30 min, and they parked the car before walking to the entrance. She gave Mr Park a smile when he helped her with the suitcase. The search for the arrivals took some minutes before they arrived at the right one.
”So I guess we have to wait here..”
”I.. I see him” She said when Minhyuk was seen walking out from the doors. He saw her and she ran up to him and hugged him. He embraced her with love and didn’t let go
”Where is Jake? I need to kill him” He said. Hailey smiled and shook her head. She looked up at him and embraced their fingers together before walking up to Mr Park.
”Hello” Mr Park said. Minhyuk bowed and waited for Hailey to introduce them to eachother.
”Minhyuk, this is Mr Park. He’s my beloved teacher..”
”I know him well. Hello uncle” Minhyuk said with a big smile on his lips before hugging Mr Park. Hailey looked at them in confusion.
