“see, you’re still pretty gwiboon-ah. a total knockout,” eunsook smiled. with wet eyes gwiboon stared out from behind her clumped bangs at her shaky reflection in the hand held mirror and fingered one of the neat french braids running in a paralleled pair down her scalp. eunsook was also watching the mirrored image of the girl between her legs, features calm while she busied herself with tying off the end of the last braid with two glittery elastics. she patted her arm when she finished, still smiling brightly and reassuring over her shoulder. “don’t you think?”
gwiboon’s fingers clenched at the ends that halted inches above her shoulders, hand shaking as she as she rubbed at her reddened puffy eyes wretchedly. against the pale white of her skin the abuse raised red splotches and lines in its wake. she jerked her head to the side to look at her profile. the mirror dropped abruptly into her lap and even before the first tear welled up, eunsook slid off her bed and brought her into her arms, placing the mirror out of the girl’s reach.
“i don’t want to go to school tomorrow,” she told eunsook quietly. as the older girl stroked her head soothingly her tears slowed. “everyone’ll stare.”
“if it bothers you that much i could have my mom even it out for you, if you’d like; since you hate the product of my craftsmanship so much,” eunsook pouted, pulling back and toying with stray hairs at her nape. eunsook jostled the other girl playfully, finally getting a smile out of her. “but no one’s going to notice the unevenness with it like this; they’ll only be talking about how they should cut their hair short to match up to the kim gwiboon by the end of the week.”
the smile fell off her face.
“jonghyun sunbae was with my dad in the next room the entire time. he’s going to tell the entire school by the end of lunch.”
“have more faith in jonghyun, he-”
“minho already knows, he texted me within the half hour; so the entire school must have it play-by-play one way or another.” her eyebrows knit together against her palm with her sudden revelation. “kim gwiboon, disowned by her mother and father for coming out.”
“minho is jonghyun’s closest friend, if no one else has bothered you he’s probably the only one who knows,” she reasoned. gwiboon slowly looked the older girl over and shook her head.
“she was so loud. she called me disgusting, unnie. she didn’t even listen. she said she regretted ever having-”
“gwiboon-ah, that’s enough, alright?”
“then she grabbed me and…fuck,” gwiboon mumbled. eunsook took her hands into her hold before she could start rubbing away her tears and wiped them away the best could herself. gwiboon pulled away fitfully. “she took me upstairs and did this.”
with gwiboon’s chin tucked down eunsook leaned over and pressed a kiss to her forehead. A small huff left gwiboon as she collapsed onto the other’s chest and looped her arms about the sitting girl in a loose embrace. She breathed a soft sigh against her skin, stilling in the older girl’s warmth.
“you’re safe here, okay? you’re safe with me.”
