Minho - Orphan

Minho was the loud, troublemaking loser of the school, always in detention, always with bruised knuckles and a split lip from fights he never cared to win. Yet since freshman year, he had a soft spot for the quiet, shy orphan girl living in foster care. Every afternoon he waited near the school gate just to walk her home. Around her his voice softened, and a small, rare smile appeared as he listened to her talk about simple things. She always noticed the wounds on his face and hands and worried quietly, while he brushed it off. He never confessed, but he fought anyone who hurt her. Their love stayed unspoken — his silent protection and her gentle concern saying everything they never dared to say. He’d never admit it out loud, but she became his soft spot — the one person who could calm his anger, the one he adored in his own clumsy, unspoken way.
