Chapter 21
+School+
It was break time...
A girl I’d never really talked to came to my side cautiously...
“...uh.. Jungwon...”
“....yeah?”
“Is it true?”
“Is what true?”
“You know Kang Heewon right...?”
...
.....
As my face turned cold, she twitched...
And at the desk next to me Yoona stood up and yelled...
“I’ve always wanted to hit b***hes that make up bull**** rumors..”
..
We quietly walked out the classroom..
“...hey, I’m fine. Why do you keep scaring the kids?”
“...it pisses me off.. Kang Heewon’s your boyfriend’s friend, I heard.”
“..yeah, seems that they are... not JUST friends... they’re best friends...”
“...the only thing important to you is!!!!”
"...?"
“To make sure that that Kang Heewon bastard doesn’t say anything bad to anyone about you! To make sure that he doesn’t break you two up! To make sure that you make him crawl on the floor you walk on!!!”
“....I’m fine with the way things are right now... don’t make a big deal out of nothing, friend.”
“Stupid b***h. <_<..”
Am I supposed to carry his guitar for him today or just leave it?
And rest of the school day I was thinking about that...
And...
I realized that all of that thinking was to pass the school day quicker.
After school ended,
My group of 6 friends, with an ice cream cone in each of our hands,
Was waking down the street.
I could see a bunch of kids with annoyed expressions as they tried to catch a taxi.
“......hey... Jung- Jungwon...”
Yoona said poking me in the side..
“What?”
“...that’s Eungyu... right?”
“...what.....?”
Yoona pointed to an area....
I spotted an area with two taxis. And I saw Eungyu getting out of one of the taxis..
He had 7 friends with him...
If MY friends find out that I’m going out with him,
They’ll want to meet his friends... TT_TT...
“Yoona, let’s just not tell them and go.” I whispered...
Yoona nodded,
And I buried my face into my crowd of friends and pretended to be on the phone.
Slowly, we passed Shin Eungyu..
“Huh? Is this the right school? It’s rundown isn’t it??!”
Shin Eungyu’s voice..
“Heh, a nuna that I liked came out of this school.. Hey, go call your girlfriend, what if she sees us?”
His friend’s voice...
Why in the world did you bring your friends along?
I quickly turned off my cell phone,
And on my side, Jiyoung said..
“What are they doing here... don’t they have some place to go drink or something?”
I spotted a taxi and I quickly shook my hand.
...
Instead of a taxi, a motorcycle stopped in front of me.
There’s only 1 motorcycle around our neighborhood.
It’s a zx-7r... (<-- TN: Whatever that is)
I know very well who the owner of this motorcycle is..
Very, very well...
That’s not all, I’ve even been on it before.. a disgusting memory..
“Eungyu!!!!!!!! Jungwon’s over here!!!”
The owner of the motorcycle yelled.
...
****.
“Kim Hyungpal! What the hell are you doing here?! TT_TT!!!”
“Eungyu wanted to come over, that’s why!”
“Take off your helmet.. <_<..”
“WHY?!”
“Because I want to hit you... TT_TT...”
“No!!! Eungyu!! You guys!!!! Over here!! Over here!!!!!!”
With that damn helmet on his head, Hyungpal waved over at Eungyu....
The 7 guys from Ahnhyun High dragged their feet over to us..
And my friends stared at me as if they couldn’t believe it..
“...Yoon Jungwon..”
Shin Eungyu called my name..
“Did you come meet a group of people...”
“Did you see me? Or did you not...?”
“I didn’t.”
“Let me see your phone.”
“.........no...”
Wordlessly, he snatched away the phone that was in my hand.
“...why’d you turn it off? ^_^.”
“My battery was running low...”
“Really...? ^_^.”
“Yeah.”
Forcing a smile, he turned of my phone.
“..your battery is fully charged ^_^..”
“Oh, I guess it did that on it’s own..”
“<_<... you’re doing this because of yesterday huh...??”
“Doing what? What happened yesterday!!”
“Hyungpal.”
He said turning in Hyungpal’s direction..
“Yeah?”
“Give me your helmet.”
“....okay...”
Without asking why, Hyungpal handed over his helmet to Shin Eungyu.
Bastard, if I bugged him ten times, he’s only let me ride it once...
Hyungpal jumped off the motorcycle....
And Shin Eungyu got on.
“Get on, I have something to say to you.”
He said in an annoyed voice.
“No.”
“I said, get on.”
“I said no! Why should I get on this thing?!”
“...haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa....”
Instead of talking, he let out a long breath of air...
My friends stared at me in disbelief.
A few stared at Shin Eungyu’s friends with interest.
And looking at him in the eye... I said looking down...
“Fine.. then I want to drive... I like driving this thing.”
“...wearing a skirt...”
“..yeah.”
Wordlessly, Shin Eungyu took off his uniform shirt (he had a wife beater on inside) and wrapped it around my waist.
My legs are getting covered...
“There... You can drive then. ^_^.. Everything’s fine then. Hey, you wear the helmet.”
Hyungpal stared at me and then his cycle with fearful eyes...
What? Are you afraid that I’m driving your HELLA expensive bike? ^0^!!
Well, actually, I’m a little nervous driving this...
I’ve driven this about 3 times?? Twice I almost fell.
I put on the helmet, and got on.
With an non-understandable smile on his face, Shin Eungyu climbed on the back.
“Hey....I think she’s crazy... I’ve never seen a girl drive a cycle before..”
“Eungyu! Be careful! If you think you’re going to fall, just jump! There’s a better chance of jumping off and living than falling off and living!!”
His friends yelled worriedly.
“Yoon Jungwon! Are you crazy? Hurry and get off!!!”
My friends started yelling.
But I’d started off already.
It’s really fast.
I can hear the wind zooming past.
The cycle started shaking slightly...
OMG, this is a little scary.. TT_TT...
The guy behind me was singing some random song.
If I spot it, then my pride gets a socking.. but it’s too scary to keep going...
I tried going slower...
But the motorcycle was normally fast.
Some kids from school who recognized me stopped and stared stupidly.
My legs started shaking..
But why the hell is this guy so calm?!
“Don’t rub your head into my back!!!!!!!!”
“The tears you cried! I’m going to erase from my memories!!! So that the sun can dry them, and if it rains it’ll wash away!!!!” (<-- Singing)
“TT_TT..”
Luckily, I got stopped by a red light.
“..hey... my leg kind of hurts, can you drive now?”
Eungyu didn’t answer and suddenly started rubbing his face into my back.
“What the hell are you doing?! Get it off!!”
“Miss, can I see your drivers license?”
“.....”
I turned my helmeted head towards the voice.
It was a police man.. <_<... poking his head out of his window..
...
Ten minutes after my scary motorcycle expedition had started...
Eungyu and I were both headed towards the police station...
Chapter 22
<_<...
I’m so dead....
With a big frown on his face,
The police officer sat down at his computer.
Eungyu and I just sat on the sofa...
I had my head bent low...
But oppositely from me, Eungyu had his head held up high and was looking around the station.
“Hey, put your head down.. stupid, you have to at least look guilty...”
“Retard...you should have just sped away.”
“If I sped away... then we’d have gotten caught.”
“Hey! Shut up!!”
The police man yelled looking up from his typing.
“Hyungpal got his cycle taken away... what is he supposed to use to get girls??”
Right then.. an ahjushi who was reading a newspaper in the corner,
Raised his eyebrow and stared at me...
Then he folded his newspaper, and headed towards me..
“..hey, have I seen you around here before?”
“...no.”
“No? I remember seeing you around here a few winters ago. Right?”
“.....no..”
“......Officer Kim!”
“Yes, sir?”
“...wasn’t this girl here before? You’ve seen her before right?”
........
“....I don’t know...”
“Oh! Oh! I remember!”
.....
.....
He said slapping his knee.
Loud enough to shake the station.
“Three years ago!! You got beat by a girl about your age!! And your face was all swollen!! Right?!”
....
..........he was talking about that incident...
My birthday... the thing that Kang Heewon did....
My shaking fists rested on my tense legs.
“I’m right.. you’re that girl.. what possessed you to get on a motorcycle and drive riding your uniform? Well, kids always come by at least 3 times in their life. TSK TSK...”
I hate hearing things like this...
..
....
“How many times did YOU come in then?”
Shin Eungyu asked as if he was asking a close hyung he knew.
“.......what did you say you little bastard...?”
“I’ve been here a lot, I guess you don’t remember me...”
“Do you really want your ass kicked?! You talk like this to your own dad like this??”
Right as the officer raised his hand to hit Eungyu.
A woman with long hair appeared suddenly and as if collapsing, she covered Eungyu’s knees.
...
“Why are you about to hit my precious baby brother?!”
It was Jaegwang’s one and only.
Behind her was Shin Eungyu’s dad and mom..
My mom and dad...
They looked at me to Eungyu with surprised looks.
In front of the Station..
Without one word.. not one word..
My dad climbed into his car...
“If you were going to ride a motorcycle, you should have ridden in the front. What were you doing holding onto a girl’s waist and riding in the back? Weren’t you embarrassed? Oh! It’s our 2nd time seeing you ^0^! Hi, young lady!”
Eungyu’s mom slightly slapped my back.
“We’d like it if your daughter and your son didn’t see each other again. We’re sorry for our troubling daughter. Yoon Jungwon.. get in the car.”
TT_TT... I’m so dead...
Mom quickly went after Dad.
“Yoon Jungwon...”
“What..”
“I’ll get revenge for you ^-^”
“HAHA~... revenge..? For what?”
“When you got beat... I’ll make sure I hurt them 10 times more than they hurt you... Since you acted strong even after you got hurt...”
“Hurry up!!”
Mom yelled loudly.
I smiled weakly towards Eungyu...
And holding back tears I got into the car...
In the rearview I could see Eungyu, his parents, and Jaegwang’s one and only all joking happily.
....
And I saw Shin Eungyu’s backside...
How are you going to get my revenge??
....I got hit over 50 times that day...
....you...
You’re going to hit your best friend Kang Heewon 500 times?
Will you really........?
....
Hahah...
Retard... you probably wouldn’t even be able to...
Tch, ass.. making someone teary for no reason at all...
It’s not like you can... no wait...
It’s not like you will.....
Chapter 23
That night...
I heard the things I hate hearing..
I heard the things I hate hearing most in the world....
Over a 1000 times from my parents...
My dad had like bent my spine into a knot,
And my kind brother Jaegwang kept my dad from snapping it in half.. TT_TT...
Around 3 in the morning,
I left my parent’s hellish room,
And I was able to lay down on my lovely comfortable bed.
Just curiously, I opened my window,
But Eungyu wasn’t outside...
“Oh my gosh, stupid. What gave you the nerve to ride that thing?”
“It’s all because of Hyungpal!! TT_TT...”
“You know that Hyungpal likes that thing more than food. And he got it taken away.”
“Ahaha!! That’s kind of funny!!”
“<_<.. retard...”
With a cigarette in his mouth, Jaegwang left to go up to the attic.
I’ll let you go today since you saved me...
Next Morning...
I wasn’t allowed to eat breakfast...
Food... Give me good... don’t you know how much I love breakfast.. TT_TT...
I left my house earlier than usual..
It’s not a good idea to stay around home after what happened yesterday...
....
.....
........
Huh...? That backside... Eun-
Huh....?! It’s that girl!!!!
I quickly started after the girl...
...yeah, it’s her.. the one who walked with Eungyu yesterday...
Huh....? Oh.....
Another thing I can see!!
This girl....
Has blue eyes....
Of course she had contacts in...
If she has blue eyes....
She’s the one Kang Heewon was talking about...
The female vocalist or whatever...
I froze in my spot and the girl looked at me with a weird look...
She’s really cute.. dammit.
She’s not as pretty as Jaegwang’s One-and-Only,
But she looks a little like this singer I don’t like with a J-initial.
(TN: I think she’s talking about Jang Nara.. Yeah, I know the girl I picked doesn’t look like Jang Nara... but oh well..)
She had a bunch of powder on her face...
And I think she’s wearing eye liner....
Continuing to look at me with weird glances, she started walking a little faster..
And I quickly started after her...
Blue-Eyes pulled out a cell phone from her pocket and started dialing a number..
(I froze)
“...uh... oppa? It’s me Nari.. huh...? No, uh, oppa where are you right now?”
You think I don’t know you’re making a baby voice on purpose??
I’m positive she has another voice at home..
“No~ I’m on my way to school.. If you haven’t left yet... do you want to walk to the little mart with me? I was practicing that song you taught me... Aren’t you going to hear it out for me? ^_^okay! Okay, I’ll be wait-”
I was positive she was talking with Shin Eungyu.. I’m positive!!!
“Can I see your cell phon?”
Where the hell did I get the nerve to use her cell phone?
I spread my hand open palm to the Blue-Eyed girl.
“Excuse me?”
She asked fearfully and taking a step back...
“Can I see your phone... Hello. You’re Shin Eungyu right? Yeah! It’s Jungwon, what are you going to do about it!!”
“...why the hell are you talking on her phone? You know Nari?”
“No, I just saw her talking on the street and I told her to give me her phone.”
“That sounds like something you’d do..”
“Hey, do I have to go carry your guitar today also?”
“Of course!!! Hey hold on, let’s go together...”
“Forget it, just walk with this girl holding hands.. <_<... dirty player...”
+CLICK+
I slipped the phone into the girl’s pocket,
And started walking.
This is jealousy... this is jealousy....
Right now, Yoon Jungwon is jealous...
“..excuse me.. you know... Eungyu oppa...?”
Blue-Eyes carefully asked me...
For some reason it pissed me off....
“Yeah, I’m his girlfriend. His GIRLFRIEND.”
“....excuse me...? His girlfriend.....??”
She asked as if she didn’t believe me...
I felt my phone vibrating in my bag, it’s probably Shin Eungyu right?
“I’ll just talk comfortably with you since you’re younger. Yeah, I’m his girlfriend. I’m late, I’ll see you around. See you~”
I said waving my hands and heading towards the bus stop.
I reached my school...
And all the kids turned to stare at me...
“YOON JUNGWON!! YOU’RE GOING OUT WITH SHIN EUNGYU?!”
Gossip is a scary thing....
How can all these girls surround me in less than a second?
And that’s what happened during lunch and during break time.
I could even see some girls looking through the window to get a glimpse of me. <_<..
1st years, 2nd years, 3rd years all crowded around..
During break, my phone started to ring.
“Hello...?”
“Nuna~ What are you doing?”
“Who is this? Your number looks familiar but, I don’t remember who this is..”
“It’s me Jaegwang!! I have a competition to go to~ So pray for me to get 1st place~~ ^0^!!”
“What the hell are you smoking? Why’d you call me....”
“...isn’t that Sohyun nuna’s cell phone?”
“I’m Jaegwang’s sister Jungwon..”
“Aw ****, dammit. I dialed the wrong number... <_<...”
+Beep............ beep................ beep........+
What the hell is wrong with this kid?
He didn’t act so cute a while ago... love works in mysterious ways.. <_<...
After class....
We decided to go shopping for the first time in a while...
With Yoona~
“Aren’t you going to go carry Shin Eungyu’s guitar for him today?”
“That Blue-Eyed girl probably will.. Tch, Jaegwang has that competition today so he’ll be home late. TT_TT .. I have to be alone with mom...”
“Just go upstairs, don’t walk around the house you’ll get hit.”
We stopped at Yoona’s favorite store...
It’s not my style.. they’re princess styles.. Lacy and .... Pink....
It’s been 20 minutes already...
And she’s been pulling me around
The dust inside the store was making me gag...
So I was about to head outside...
+SHOVE+
Someone shoved past me...
“What the hell.”
“Come out for a bit.”
Oh my gosh, I think I’m starting to get pissed.. why the hell am I seeing this bastard so much these days?
Gathering my courage,
I left the clothes shop.
It was Kang Heewon dressed in his uniform.
A little distance away, I can see his friends...
“With is it? What do you want?”
“I told you not to hang around Eungyu didn’t I?”
For the first time in my life, I snorted...
“Are you threatening me?”
“I’m warning you...”
“What’s it to you if I meet him or don’t? I’m going to continue to go out with Eungyu.. and I don’t have any thoughts of breaking up with him!”
“Ha.. you want to get beat like last time? Don’t mix around with the people around me... you’re disgusting... got it?”
....
He’s looking at me the same way he did that day... he’s talking at me the same way he did that day...
I want to forget... I was beginning to forget...
But I saw it again.....
.....
...
“...you think I’m disgusting...? I want to throw up every time I see you.. I want to throw-”
+SMACK+
My left cheek caught on fire...
I froze.. I couldn’t think of anything to say....
People around us were starting to whisper....
I could hear Kang Heewon’s friend’s laughter all the way over here...
I just blankly froze... like an idiot.. like last time...
“Don’t hang around Eungyu...”
He said...
And as he headed towards his friend, he gave them a ‘V.’
After snapping out of my trance...
I was going to turn towards him-
But we was already too far away...
My phone’s ringing...
..it’s probably Eungyu right...?
After this happening.. I’m not going to back down..
I’m going to stick next to Shin Eungyu....
And I’m going to smile with Eungyu in front of Kang Heewon...
Until Shin Eungyu picks me over Kand Heewon...
I’m going to stick to Eungyu, and drive that bastard crazy.....
I’m going to get my revenge....
That’s all....
Chapter 24.
As if nothig was wrong...
I started on my way, and ignored the people’s pitying looks...
My cheek is burning... it’s hot..
But it doesn’t hurt.... really, it doesn't...”
“Hey! Jungwon! I made you wait a long time huh?!”
With a shopping bag in both hands, Yoona waddled out of the store.
“Huh...? Hey! What’s wrong with your face!?!”
“....what’s wrong with my face?”
“It’s bruised!!”
“..it’s no big deal, I think I slammed my face on the door as I was coming out.”
Bastard...
How can you hit a girl’s face with, not your palm, but your fist....
+RING RING RIINNG!+
“Hey Jungwon, you’re phone’s ringing..”
“Yeah. Hello?”
Over the phone, I could hear Eungyu’s voice.
“Where are you! >_<!!”
“...I came out to do a little shopping. Where are YOU?”
“I was waiting this whole time!!!”
“Want to meet us?”
“Are you almost done shopping?”
“We’re going to shop for about an hour longer.”
“After you’re finished, come to our practice room. You have to!! See ya!”
+BEEP..............beep........... beep....+
Maybe it was because she was with me..
Or maybe because it was because she’d gone shopping,
But my friend wouldn’t stop jumping around.
“Jungwon~ Let’s go shopping for YOUR clothes!”
“..uh, yeah, hey. Is there a pharmacy around here?”
“Why?”
“A band-aid.”
“Band-aid..?”
....
.....
With a worried expression on her face, Yoona put three band-aids covering my bruise.
“...hey.. but.. uh, it’s looks really funny...”
“It’s fine, Just don’t tell Shin Eungyu.. Tell him I have a rash or something.”
“Rash? Just say you got hit by the door...”
“No.. no...”
He catches on quickly...
After all those weird things he heard at te police station, he’ll get more suspicious.
As we passed each store, all the people stared at me...
Well, I can’t exactly blame them...
With a height of 170,
And 3 band-aids on my cheek.
I must’ve have been a sight..
In the end, I didn’t get anything. TT_TT...
In front of the Rehearsal Room...
My heart was starting to beat a little faster than usual...
While I was wondering what to do...
Yoona opened the door and stepped in..
....okay.. Yoon Jungwon, don’t run away anymore..!! Kang Heewon isn’t your friend anymore! He hasn’t been your friend for a long time... so.. don’t run away anymore...
+CHANG!!!! DUP DUMP CHANG!!!+ (TN: -_- , my lame attempt at drums)
It was a really nice drum beat...
The drummer stopped after a while.. the drummer stared at me with curious eyes..
It’s the lady from before.. with the weird fashion sense....
Sitting on the couch, was Eungyu grabbing the Blue-Eyed girl’s hair.
He stared at Yoon and me.
“Ow! Oppa~ It hurts~~ Huh? Oh it’s that unnie from earlier~”
Blue-Eyes looked at me and Yoona curiously...
Why do I want to rip out her contacts???
“Shin Eungyu, I’m here~”
“What the hell is wrong with your face?”
“I got a rash... uh please continue playing~~ ^_^..”
Getting rid of the confused look on her face,
The drummer unnie grinned at me, quietly started playing something.
Wow~~ She’s so muhshesuh... she really looks like a professional...
I grabbed Yoona’s hand,
And sat on the sofa in front of Shin Eungyu...
“You got a rash? Why?”
“...uh.. I didn’t use soap when I was washing my face... <_<...”
“Ew~ Nasty~”
“What are you doing not practicing, and pulling her hair?”
“She has really nice hair huh?! It’s like seaweed!”
He said as he continued to pull her hair.
With a red face, she turned to me...
“..you’re the unnie from this morning right? You said you’re Eungyu oppa’s girlfriend right?”
“Yeah.”
“..you’re pretty~~”
“Hey! Yoona, why’s it so hot in here?!??!?!”
(Like I said before, I get mad when I get compliments)
“Uh.. Jungwon.. over there...”
Yoona said grabbed my hand and pointing over in a direction...
And...I felt my breath catch in my throat..
As I spotted Kang Heewon walk in...
“I’m sorry! Sorry! I’m late huh? I went to the Karaoke with my friends~ Huh? Nari you’re here already?”
He asked, as if nothing was wrong.
As he sat down next to Shin Eungyu...
He keeps glancing at the band-aids on my face...
“Eungyu~ Nari’s a good singer, huh? ^_^”
“Yeah.”
“Nari~ I heard you’re popular at school too. A kid I know told me. Heard you get a bunch of notes from guy~ Isn’t she cute, Eungyu?”
With her cheeks on fire, Blue-Eyes bent her head.
You must be happy you’re so cute, b***h. <_<
Without saying anything, Shin Eungyu continued to pull her hair.
“Don’t you guys live in the same neighborhood? Since it’s dangerous at night, you should walk together~”
Oh, I see how you’re playing it.... You’re trying to get me pissed, eh?
Grabbing my hand tightly, Yoona gave signs of wanting to leave.
Squeezing her hand, I told her it was okay..
...so, Kang Heewon, you want to start now?
“Eungyu~ Let’s go to the beach~”
“...what?”
“Let’s go to the beach~ We have to go before school starts!!”
“What the hell’s wrong with you all of a sudden?”
Please.. just catch on what I’m trying to do.. TT_TT....
“At the beach, we’ll go hunting for clams! And mussels! And we’ll eat sushi too! Want to? ^0^”
“...take those off...”
“We’ll go by ourselves.... okay? Just us two!”
“Take those off!!!!!”
“What to ride the train there?? Or the bus? Or just ride on our love~~ ^0^”
...
It happened in less than a second..
Quickly, before I could say anything.... Eungyu snatched off one of the band-aids.
His frozen face just stared at my cheek...
And for a second our eyes met...
Kang Heewon pulled out a cigarette.
“What’s wrong with your face....”
“...this?”
“What the hell is wrong with your face?!??!”
“...I got hit by a door... a bastard of a door actually...”
I said glaring at Kang Heewon’s face.
“Follow me...”
He said standing up, and grabbing my hand.. he pulled me out the room.
It was just a second..
But I could see Kang Heewon let out a small grin as he blew out some smoke...
‘Tell him if you dare~’
With his hands shoved into his hands..
He leaned against the door and with angry eyes, Shin Eungyu stared me down...
“I didn’t know rashes turned blue... and red.”
"......"
“Who the hell was it.”
“...no it’s nothing. I got hit by a door. Let’s go in.”
“The names of those girls the guy was talking about at the police station.”
“....what...?”
“Tell me their names... their age, and their school... Don’t leave one out.. Tell me the name of the person who did this to you...”
....
.....
“I thought you said you didn’t like me~ I thought you said you don’t care about anyone but yourself~~ Why are you worrying so much huh? ^_^.. I’m getting my revenge on them right now.. so it’s fine. Don’t worry.... I already got my revenge on the girls...”
He frowned...
I think I just pissed him off... TT_TT.. I don’t like being around him when he’s pissed off.
“While I’m going out with you, I have to protect you.. I have to.. so tell me... I’m going to hear your answer..... don’t drag it out..”
“I don’t want to tell you.”
“I don’t care, tell me.”
“.....I’m going to do it on my own. You can’t do it for me... the person’s stronger than you.. okay?”
“I don’t fawking need to hear anything like that, do tell me who the fawk it is!!!”
Sheesh, you’re more stubborn than I thought you’d be.
“The person who did this to me.... likes you... and you like the person back.... you like the person... more than you like me..... you still want to hurt that person? Are you going to step on that person with me watching? Are you going to make that person cry... for me...?
....
.........
.....
......
Chapter 25
He stared at me for a while...
And then Eungyu looked down at the ground....
“.....that sucks... doesn’t it...”
He said after a little while of silence,
He forced a smile and asked me cheerfully....
“...yeah, it does....”
He lifted his head..
And Eungyu looked at me in the eyes...
“....I’ll like you more... And then... I’ll make the person who did this to you regret ever touching you.... Tell me who hit you on the day I end up liking you more than that person... Tell me then... Then, I’ll make sure that you don’t go through anymore hurtful things.... I’ll make him regret it... Don’t tell me now.... I’m curious, but I’m not going to ask who it was....
He has a weird way of thinking.....
“Okay, let’s go in. Okay?”
“....when we go to the beach, want to ride our love~~?”
“Shut up! Move it!!”
“Hey, but who are those byatches that officer was talking about?!”
...
...
“....I beat them already a few days ago... excluding 2 of them...”
“....then I’m going to hit the other 2!!!!”
“...I don’t care about them anymore... The only person I hate... is the person who made me like this.... Only that person.... Oh, and my mom... ^0^”
I touched the bruise on my face, and smiled at hit...
Remembering that I left Yoona in there by herseld,
I quickly reached to open the door....
“....let me just ask you this one thing.... was it a guy or a girl....?”
....
.....
......
“A guy....”
..
..
As I opened the door, I felt Kang Heewon’s eyes on me....
“Yoona! Let’s go!”
“About time!”
As if she were waiting for me to say these words, Yoona walked over to me....
“I’ll see you around, unnie...”
Blue-eyes said getting up from her seat and bowing slightly...
Hmm, she’s not too bad.... ^0^
The cool unnie (drummer) looked up from her playing and waved a drumstick at me...
“Bye, Eungyu’s girlfriend!!!!”
Kang Heewon’s face went grim....
Unnie, I love you~ ^0^
“I’ll see you next time, I’ll visit soon~~!”
As Yoona and I were leaving,
Eungyu hurried after us,
And Kang Heewon yelled...
“Hey! Shin Eungyu!! Where the hell are you going?! We have to practice!!”
“Can’t~ I have to take care of my Piggy since she’s hurt~ I’ll see you all tomorrow!!!”
Did Yoon Jaegwang tell him to call me that?? <_<....
“Hey! A girl’s more important than practicing?!”
...
...
Haha~ Loser...
“Right now, the girl!!!”
God must have blessed me today~~ ^0^
After waving to his band, Eungyu grabbed my hand,
And the three of us left the building.....
The three of us were in an awkward silence...
I guess Shin Eungyu was giving Yoona looks to leave us alone, so she said...
“I’m going!!!”
“Why?! Stay here with us, was he glaring at you?!?!”
“Forget it~ Take care of Jungwon!!”
Yoona started disappearing quickly.....
“Wait! Han Yoona! Stay with us! Why are you going?!?!”
“I’m going on a date too~~ ^0^”
And with that, she was out of our sight.....
I looked over and Eungyu...
He was biting his lip and deep in thought, and with an excited voice he yelled,
“Hey! Maybe we should get Heewon and your friend together!!!!!”
“NO!”
...
....
A lady selling fruit by the corner of the street looked up....
Introduce my friend to WHO??? <_<...
“Why not...? Heewon’s a cool guy~”
“....right~~~~ You’re cooler than him...”
“Well, duh! I know that already!”
“Is there anything that the great and almighty Shin Eungyu DOESN’T know??”
“Hey, don’t be mean <_<....”
“Do you still not like Dragon head??”
“I despise it!!! I hate it!!!”
“It just threw a cup of soda at you, and you hate it that much??? What if... what IF.... I was that person inside the dragon outfit?? I’m just saying what IF..”
.........
...........
..............
All of a sudden, he froze,
And looked at me with sincere eyes....
“I’m just saying what if!”
“Then I won’t meet you anymore...”
“....oh~~ I see..... Yeah.... I see....”
“Go home and put ointment on it.”
Shin Eungyu slightly touched my bruise, and continued to walk.....
....so you won’t meet me... <_<...
If Yoona just shuts her mouth, everything will be fine....
+Near Our Houses+
I slowed my walk, and fell a few steps behind Eungyu....
“My mom might see, so just was apart...”
“No.”
“There’s nothing we can do about it.. If she catches us, both of us will die...”
“No..”
“...want to die?!”
With my outburst,
Eungyu’s cell phone started ringing....
He stared at the number...
“Hello? Yeah... Nabi...?? Oh~ Oh~ Nari.. yeah.. uh huh...”
...
......…<_< ......... Nari....?
The guy continued to talk into his phone...
And I walked passed him towards my house...
As I was about to walk him,
Shin Eungyu asked in a loud voice after hanging up...
“Hey, she just asked me what I’d do if she went out with some guy.... Why is she asking me that?? O_O...?”
“I thought you said you knew everything~~ You don’t even know? She likes you~!”
I walked in and closed the door behind me...
I don’t know if I can’t compete with her...
She has Kang Heewon on her side...
Please just don’t do anything Blue-Eyes... no wait, cute girl.. just don’t do anything TT_TT....
Chapter 26
That night,
I had a really weird dream....
I had the dragon mask on my head,
And I was fighting with Kang Heewon who had angel wings behind him....
Fighting violently.....
And Shin Eungyu was blowing the trumpet wearing weird clothes....
+PPPPPPPPT!!!! PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPT!!!+
.........
..........????......
+PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPT!!!!!+
My eyes opened.
And I saw my brother by the door making weird noises...
“What the hell! I had a weird dream because of you!!! What the hell is PPPPPT!!”
“Hey! I got first place!!! Bwahahahahahaha!”
He said laughing loudly and shaking his trophy in from of my face....
“First place....? When’d you get here?”
“In the morning! I’m going to melt my trophy and make Sohyun anecklace!!! ^0^”
Shin Eungyu and Yoon Jaegwang had the mental capacity of 3-year-olds....
“Hey! Just leave it as a reminder!! Why would you melt that?!”
“I can do whatever I want...”
“That’s why you hear you’re stupid!!!!!”
“Shut up! It’s my charm!!! If you answer any of my calls from girls tell them I’m not home.... Man! I’m burned out!!! I’m going to sleep!! Don’t mess around with me!! Bwhahahaha!!”
Yoon Jaegwang skipped over to his room...
And after debating if I should hit him, I decided against it because he looked so happy....
He’s totally crazy.... WAY~~~ crazy.....
I can’t even tell him that she has a boyfriend... TT_TT....
I got up from my bed and to breath in the morning air, I opened my window....
As I was looking around, my eyes stopped on something....
Hiding behind their small attic wall,
Jaegwang’s One-and-Only and Shin Eungyu were throwing water balloons toward the ground....
They looked really happy....
I quickly closed the window....
-_-.....
“Jaegwang!!!! Look out the window!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
+Breakfast Table+
My parents were in a good mood because of Jaegwang’s win.
I hate two bowls of rice today....
Before I walked out, I got a whole load of calls from Jaegwang’s admirers..
It’s getting tiring telling them that he’s not home....
As I finished cleaning my room, I turned around ...
And spotted my photo album.....
...
.....
There was about an inch of dust on the cover... I haven’t opened it in a long time...
.....page after page.... I could see picture of Kang Heewon and me.....
It made me sad....
There wasn’t one picture in the album that we were frowning in...
We were always smiling....
Our school field trip....
When we went to the beach...
At home....
The day before my birthday....
I turned the last page.......
...
Why do I still have this...?
It was when I had that job at Lotte World....
The picture of me wearing the dragon outfit....
Another picture of me without the mask on my head....
The pictures Yoona told me to take.....
....
I closed the album, and put it back in it’s place....
When I looked out the window, I couldn’t see Jaegwang’s One-and-Only and Eungyu.....
They ‘re probably practicing today too, right?
Well, there’s nothing good about meeting everyday anyways...
I’ll just catch up on the sleep I lost these past few weeks... >_<
I collapsed onto the bed,
And fell fast asleep...
....
......
3 Hours Later....
....
“When is your mom and dad coming home today?”
“They went to some kind of meeting today, it’s okay, we can go drink~~”
“But your sister’s in her room... I’m scared of her...”
“I got first place! Don’t worry!!!”
I would have ignored them....
But Yoon Jaegwang’s last statement bugged me... If you got first place it doesn’t mean you can rule the world.. <_<.....
I got off my bed.....
And headed down the stairs....
....
.....
.....
I saw Jaegwang and 2 of his friends on the floor...
....
Huh...?
There’s a girl here also.....
Oh! It’s.. it’s......
I stared at her stupidly, and one of Jaegwang friend’s discovered my presesnce...
“Jaegwang, your sister woke up....”
...
......
His friends all stared at me...
....
......
I’m right....
That girl.....
It’s Blue-Eyes!!!!
She was sitting next to Jaegwang’s friend and was looking at me surprised..
“Nuna! Why the heel did you wake up?! Go back to sleep!”
“You think I’m a bear? I don’t sleep all day you know, what the hell are you doing? Drinking at home as soon as mom and dad left?!”
“Who cares? I got first place. Don’t scare my friends away, they said it’s scary to come over because of you!!!!!!!!!!!”
..
...
Even while Jaegwang and I were arguing,
Blue-Eyes continued to look at me...
“That girl.. who is she? Is she your friend....?”
“Oh~ Nari? She’s his girlfriend. She’s pretty huh? Not as pretty as my Sohyun though...^0^”
He pointed his finger to one of his friends,
Oh I see, I see..
After hanging up with Eungyu yesterday about it he was okay with her going out with someone else.
She eventually became my brother’s friend’s girlfriend~
I smiled...
“Okay, have fun... I’m going to go on the computer~ So I’ll just leave you all to enjoy your drinks~~”
Jaegwang’s friends all got up quickly and bowed slightly....
I went up to Jaegwang’s room, and turned on his computer..
“Uh.. hi~”
A babyish voice...
It’s Blue-Eyes, I’ll just call her Nari...
“...hi~ What are you doing here? Shouldn’t you be drinking with the others?”
“I was so suprised, and it felt nice seeing you again ^0^.”
Blue-E- no wait, Nari smiled....
She carefully sat on the edge of Jaegwang’s bed.
“I go to Jaegwang’s school, but I never thought that he’d be your younger brother... You guys seem close...”
“Close...? Not at all.. He doesn’t listen to me at all... Are you going out with that guy down there? Blah, you can do better~”
“.…^_^..”
Instead of answering, Nari smiled...
“Unnie, have you known Eungyu oppa for a long time?”
“No~ ^-^”
“.....I didn’t think Eungyu oppa would go out with anyone.. I’m so jealous ^_^..”
“....you are....?”
“Oh right! Doesn’t oppa live right next door?”
“..uh, yeah he does... I think he’s out though.”
“I hope you guys last a long time~”
“You too!! ^0^”
“.......thank you......”
She smiled every time she answered a question or finished talking......
But.. I could see tears in her eyes..... I wonder why.....
She quietly got up and bowed her head,
And Nari left the room.....
I didn’t really like her,
But she has a cute side to her...
I want to see Yoon Jaegwang and buy her~~ TT_TT...
I turned back to the computer and started playing my game...
Chapter 27
After that,
A short but long week passed by...
School started again.....
During that week, I met Shin Eungyu over 30 times....
Although none of them were exactly planned..
But he’s been busy with playing at outdoor concerts and stuff.....
Everyday, he’d make me listen to new songs he’s composed....
And Jaegwang’s love towards his One-and-Only got bigger..... TT_TT...
“The person I’m madly in love with is older! But only by a little!!!!” (<-- The song Yoon Jaegwang sang over 10 times every day..)
It was Yoo Seungjun’s, ‘I love you, nuna.’
Luckily, because of my stubbornness, I was able to keep him back from melting his trophy...
+Satuday Night+
I promised my friends to all go drinking with them,
....and for the first time in a long while, I got dressed in a casual suit...
And crept out towards the attic....
I carefully made sure I didn’t knock any plants down...
I have to be careful when I’m going down the stairs also...
“...come back up... <_<....”
I thought my heart was going to shatter...
When I looked up,
I saw Shin Eungyu glaring at me with a cigarette in his mouth...
“Oh~ Uh, my friend is drunk and my other friends wanted me to take her home... ^0^ I’ll be right back..”
“Nice outfit~~ ^0^”
“....oh! This?? Hahaha, all my clothes are in the dry clreaners.... And this was the only thing left...”
“...I want to go too.. hold on.~~”
With those words, Shin Eungyu went down his stairs....
“Hey~~ w-wait, hey...”
“Yeah?”
“...just today, come on.. It’s been forever since I’ve drank anything.. just today~~”
“You promised though.... I heard that every time that someone lies, their relationship grows apart one meter....”
“Who said that?”
“..you said it yesterday....”
“Just a little!! Please? My friends are going through hard times these days, I’ll just help them and be right back.... Just 1 hour!”
“.....1 meter, 2 meters, 3 meters....”
“What are you saying? You drink everyday! Did I do anything to you when you went to go drink?!”
“...yeah, you hit me.”
Eungyu showed me a bruise on his arm.....
“Fine, then you can hit me too~ There, happy? I’ll be right back!”
I started on my way again....
“Bye! Be happy! Bye! Have a good life!!”
Why I oughttta <_<...
....
....
Eungyu’s face was too serious to pass this as a joke....
.....he was just staring at me....
"..............."
“I’ll be right back! Just wait okay? I’ll buy you strawberry ice cream on my way back.”
"........."
..
...
I headed down the stairs.....
We’d planned this a while ago~ I can’t bail on them now! TT_TT...
..
..
I waved my hand to grab a taxi,
And walked into the bar.
I quickly walked over to my friends.....
“Hey! It’s been forever huh?! Jiyoung~ You look so hot!! ^0^”
“You don’t look bad yourself!!”
“Ahahaha!”
The beer bottles kept coming.....
When it seemed as if we were almost finished, we’d order more.....
Half the girls were drunk as hell,
And Yoona and Jiyoung continued to drink...
The time was almost 2...
I kept drinking to get rid of Shin Eungyu’s face.....
“..two bottles left, hey Yoona. How are we supposed to take them home?”
“Us three will have to take one of them home.”
“Jiyoung’s starting to get drunk also~ Take that away from her~~”
Yoona snatched the bottle from Jiyoung.....
“Give it to me~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!!!!”
“No, you byatch~ If you get drunk it’s the two of us taking 4 of you home.”
Leaving the two behind to argue, I went to empty my bladder....
...
...
As I was heading towards the bathroom...
...
I heard a familiar voice that belonged to a girl......
It was coming from inside a room,
....and I peeked in......
.......
I saw Byatch 1, 2, 3, 4 with 2 guys....
Before they could see me, I headed towards the bathroom......
“Huh?! It’s that b***h!!! That b***h Yoon Jungwon!!!!!”
....
.........damn....
I gave up on the bathroom, and I ran towards the room with all my friends.....
Yoona looked at me as I gasped for air....
“What the hell’s wrong with you?”
“...fawk, lock the door...”
“There isn’t a lock.”
“****.. ****.....”
“...why? What happened? Are the police here???”
“The b***hes from Ahnhyun are here... the 4 from before... They’re drinking..... what do we do?”
“Who cares? You can take on 3, Jiyoung and I will take on one~”
“There are 2 guys also!! They’re as big as Hyungpal!!”
“WHAT???”
Jiyoung and Yoona yelled at the same time....
“Just hurry! Let’s go!”
Jiyoung said in a panicky voice...
“What about them though?”
I asked pointing to the three on the ground...
“...there’s nothing we can do~ They’re going to come here, I’ll try blocking the door, so Jiyoung and Yoona, go call some oppa’s you know. Hurry.....”
+BANG BANG!+
“Hey open the door!!” Byatch #1.
“We just called Heewon, you’re dead now~~ Open the damn door!!!” Byatch #2..
.....****....
“Hey, push the bell, then the lady will come~~” Yoona said.....
“Hey stupid, then we’ll all get kicked out. And then we’ll get beaten up~~ The door’s about to break~ Hurry call some oppas you know!”
Jiyoung and Yoona quickly dialed numbers into their phone.....
“No one’s answering!! What do we do?!”
I took out my phone and tossed it to Yoona...
“Number one is Yoon Jaegwang... number 82 is Shin Eungyu, tell them both that I’m about to go to heaven...”
“Okay!”
“Yoon Jungwon!! Open the door!! I’ll beat the **** out of you for last time!!! Open the damn door!!” <-- Byatch #3.
“...whatever, it’ll be better when Hewon gets here... Hey, don’t waste your strength.....”
“No! I want to hit her for twisting my arm!!!!!!”
What the hell did these people grow up eating...... Why are they so strong.....?? TT_TT....
+BAM!!!!!!!+
....the door opened... TT_TT......
Chapter 28
Both Yoona and Jiyoung wore nervous expressions on their face.
Gathering all of my nerve,
I looked at Byatches 1, 2, 3, 4 up at down...
“What are you doing here??”
“You- you b***h~!! Come out here!!!”
Byatch #1 yelled.
....
.....this might turn out for the better....
“Yoona come with me, Jiyoung get all the others into a taxi and send them home. Have you called Jaegwang and Eungyu?”
Yoona nodded...
And I headed out of the bar...
Of all the places to build a bar, why here..?
Luckily, I didn’t see the two huge guys who were with them earlier.
1, 2, 3, 4 all stared at me...
“Hey, your eyeballs might pop out if you stare any longer.”
“Don’t you know what’s going to happen to you?!” Byatch #2 yelled.
“Yeah, I’m so stupid, I don’t know what’s going to happen to me, what are you going to do about it?!”
For a second the girls froze....
“KILL HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
With Byatch #1’s yell,
They pulled their sleeves up and charged towards me...
“Yoona! You go after Byatch #2!!”
“Which one is #2?!”
“Aish, forget what I said, just beat which ever one you can!”
The moon seemed especially bright that night.....
“Ow!!! Let go!! Let go!!!!!!!!!”
“Damn, why the hell is she so stringy?”
Right then,
As if they had given up on me, they charged towards Yoona..
“YOONA!”
It took them 5 seconds to knock Yoona on the ground...
For a second, my head was a blur...
With my shaking legs, I went to grab two heads...
As soon as I started pulling, Byatch #1 and #3 were screaming like hell...
“Hey~ Come here... come here..”
Byatch #2 and #4 slowly started backing away....
#4 who was looking forward to the fight the most was the one backing out of it the first.
She sped out of there.....
After losing her chance to run away, Byatch #2 stared at me with tear filled eyes...
“It’s not me! I never wanted to hit you~~”
“Fawking b***h, you hit my friend...??”
I hate it when people pick on people I love....
I grabbed Byatch #2 collar and shoved her into a wall and started pressing on her throat....
Right when Byatch #2’s eyes were about to close.......
“...haha~~ Not bad...”
........
How long had he been standing there?
Kang Heewon looked down at the girls on the floor,
And stuck out his tongue.
And....
Byatch #2 quickly hid behind Kang Heewon...
“Kang Heewon, you again....?”
“When I heard my friends were getting picked on, I came as fast as I could ^_^.”
...
.....
He took a step forward.....
“...why are you so disgusting...”
I asked leaning against the wall...
“I warned you to leave Eungyu... didn’t I? I told you to make sure I don’t see you.. didn’t I?”
“Hey, instead why don’t you just pop out your eye balls? Then you won’t have to see me ^_^.”
“Why don’t you get anything I’m telling you.. Yoon Jungwon, were you always this stupid?”
....
......
He put his face 10 in front of mine,
And like in my memories, he smiled....
.....
Right now....
.....
I’m not as mad as I am sad........
“Kang Heewon, when’d change? Why’d you become someone I don’t recognize... You were my friend... I was your friend....”
I said bravely, but... Kang Heewon just laughed loudly as if it were the funniest thing he’s heard..
“Are you trying to make me feel bad.....? Yeah, were friends... that’s why I hate you even more... Because the person who made me like this was my friend... ^_^..”
“How’d I make you like this...?”
“Betrayal...”
With his last words...
He closed his eyes ,
As if remembering The Day....
He closed his eyes and then opened them slowly....
He grabbed me by the collar....
It’s weird... really weird isn’t it....
......I hate this person in front of me... no... he’s more disgusting that hateful....
....but I can’t lift my hands to push him away..... my hands won’t move....
Why can’t I push him away...
Is it because I miss the 5 years of friendship with him....
I found it difficult to breathe.....
My throat was being squeezed....
“....tell me now... tell me that you won’t meet Eungyu anymore..”
I shook my head twice...
“Yeah...?”
Kang Heewon tightened grip around my neck....
“Let’s see who’ll last longer.. you or me..... I’ll give you another chance. Are you going to meet Eungyu...?”
Kang Heewon lifted me up higher....
I started getting light headed....
Why’d you even smile for me...
Why’d even be my friend...
If this is want you were going to do??
.....
Right when I felt that my throat would burn from the lack of oxygen....
“Okay~ stop right there............”
Behind him....
Was a guy’s voice...
“Fawk.”
Kang Heewon left go of my collar....
And I feel to the ground....
Chapter 29
When I looked up, gasping for breath,
I saw Jaegwang with his Kendo stick.
“Yoon Jaegwang... what the hell.. why’d you bring that??”
“ARE YOU OKAY?!”
“...yeah, I’m fine.. thanks for coming quickly you little bastard.”
“Hey, what the hell were you doing to my nuna!??!?!?!?!?”
Yelling,
Jaegwang neared Kang Heewon.
I’ve never seen him so mad....
I can see his fist shaking....
“..Yoon Jungwon, it’s your kid brother~ Hahaha, did your sister call you? Still a rude little bastard aren’t you?”
Jaegwang threw his Kendo stick on the ground.
And shoved his face into Kang Heewon’s.
“I kept myself because of my nuna, you know that? I’m going to have a good night’s sleep knowing that I finally beat the sh*t out of a guy I’ve wanted to kill the past 3 years.”
He said trying to sound really tough.
“....nuna, go take Yoona nuna and leave.”
“No, I want to watch...”
“Yoona nuna’s started foaming dipsh*t!!!!!!”
....
When I looked over,
Sure enough, foam was starting to come out of Yoona’s mouth....
“Yoona!!!”
I picked Yoona up,
....Kang Heewon and Yoon Jaegwang had already stated beating each other and were rolling on the ground.
“Jaegwang!!!”
“Get lost retard!! I got first place remember?! First place doesn’t lose!! Hurry and take her to the hospital, when I get home make me some Rame- Ow~ Fawking bastard!!!”
Okay, Yoon Jaegwang, I’m trusting you...
You’re only a year younger...
But.. I’ll trust you since you got first place... TT_TT...
“Yoona~ Wake up.. stupid girl, wake up....”
I said patting her face, but she was still out cold.
I lifted Yoona and went to the front of the bar to see if I could catch a taxi.
It felt as if I’d walked a mile...
But when I looked back, I wasn’t that far away from where I had started..
AGH~ She’s so heavy TT_TT...
“Do you have a beer belly already TT_TT.... A bag of rice would be lighter.. TT_TT...”
....
Anyways....
I didn’t know Jaegwang was this trust worthy....
I smiled for a small second....
Wait, I should be smiling at a time like this...
I quickened my pace....
......
It happened in no time at all....
I spotted a guy running quickly over to me...
...with brownish hair....
“Hey! Shin Eungyu!!!!!!!!!!!”
He didn’t stop.
“Eungyu!!!!!!!!!!!”
......
.............but he was too far away to hear me...s
If he just goes right now, he’ll see Kang Heewon and Jaegwang...
He might find out everything....
I laid Yoona down on the ground...
And chased after Shin Eungyu...
No~ You can’t know yet, you can’t find out yet.. TT_TT...
You still like him more than you like me!! TT_TT......
“Did this bastard grow up eating fuel?! Stop for a second!!!!!!!!”
He stopped...
About 50 meters in front of me he stopped,
And Shin Eungyu turned around.
Spotting me,
He started heading towards me...
And then....
He pulled me into a tight hug....
With one hand messing up my hair....
“Let go, will you?”
He squeezed my shoulders,
And wordlessly looked down at me..
“Hehehe, I wasn’t going to look at you ever again if you never came. ^_^, you came though~”
“Will you stop getting beat up!??!?!??!!”
He yelled at me....
“It’s not like I plan it out... I hit them back!”
“Where are they?! Where are they?!?!”
“They went home... I sent them running...
“Where’d you get hurt?! Where’d you get hurt?!”
“...just my neck...”
.....
.....
Quickly, Shin Eungyu moved my collar away from my neck...
“What the hell are you doing?!”
“Sh*t!! It’s swollen red!!!!!!!!!!!!”
“Well of course it’s red! You think it’d be yellow?!”
“Oh my God! You’re starting to piss me off!!”
“..you’re starting again....”
“Where the hell do they live?!?!’
“How the hell do I know?! It was my first time seeing them!”
“How old?!”
“...I think the same age....”
“What school?!”
“I don’t know....”
With a really pissy expression, Shin Eungyu just looked at my neck....
“Fawk, did you break your promise to get beat up again?! Are you still going to sneak out?!?!”
+SHAKE SHAKE+
“.......1 meter...... don’t go any further apart okay?!?!?!?!!”
+NOD NOD+
“Let’s go to the hospital.”
Eungyu pulled my hand towards where Yoona was laying down....
“Eungyu, hold on.”
"....ㅇ_ㅇ..?"
“Can you take Yoona to the hospital? I have to do something real quick.”
“Do what?”
“ I left something at the bar~ Take Yoona to the hospital~”
Before he could ask anymore questions,
I ran towards where Kang Heewon and Jaegwang were fighting.
....
......
I slowed down my run....
.. ....
.....
I saw Jaegwang looking pretty normal
(But he was on the ground panting..)
And with dirt on his clothes,
Was Kang Heewon wiping blood from his face while laying down...
“...Jaegwang, are you okay?!”
“I said I was first place didn’t I?? <_<..”
“Can you get up?!”
“I don’t know.. help me up.”
...
....
Jaegwang slung his arm around my shoulders....
For a second, I looked over at Kang Heewon...
“.....get lost..........”
He spit at the ground that Jaegwang I were both standing on.
“You fawking bastard~~!!!”
Jaegwang yelled, his temper flaring again...
“Calm down, calm down...”
“....Yoon Jaegwang, it’s not over...’ <-- Kang Heewon
“Get lost before I break your face..” <-- Jaegwang...
...please... don’t let them meet again... I beg you..
I half dragged Jaegwang and started heading forward...
And....
Once again, my heart missed a beat...
In front of me..
Was Shin Eungyu looking at me and Kang Heewon...
.....
......
Jaegwang’s eyes grew large and he grinned...
“Huh? Hyung! Long time no see!!!!!!!!!”
He passed Jaegwang and me,
And ran towards Kang Heewon...
“Kang Heewon!!!”
...
....
Chapter 30
“Kang Heewon!!”
..
..
He crouched down on the ground,
And Eungyu wiped the dirt off Kang Heewon’s clothes for him.
....what do I do.... what do I do...
What and I’m supposed to tell him.....
“Nuna, what the fawk.. is that bastard the next door hyung’s friend?”
Clueless Jaegwang asked me..
“...Jaegwang, don’t say anything... I’m begging you okay? So for 20 minutes shut up. Just have your mouth closed and just stand still okay?”
“Why?!?!? No!! I can’t!!! How the hell can I have my mouth closed for 20 minutes!??!!!!?!”
“..TT_TT...”
Eungyu helped Kang Heewon up and I can see Kang Heewon muttering something to Eungyu.
...he’s not telling him everything... is he??
Eungyu stopped in front of us....
It looks a little funny right now...
Me helping my brother stand up, and Eungyu holding Kang Heewon up.
“Yoon Jungwon, you said you had something at the bar...”
“..oh that~ When I got there, I saw my brother and your friend Kang Heewon fighting.. I was so surprised.”
“.....2 meters....”
“What........?”
“You lied again.... you knew this was going on... You didn’t keep your promise so we’re two meters apart retard....”
“......okay........”
“Kang Heewon, what the hell is all this? You know Jungwon’s brother?”
Eungyu’s attention turned towards Kang Heewon...
And Kang Heewon started making up lies....
“...no~ It’s not that. My friends and I came for a drink, and then all of the sudden, this bastard starts getting pushy with us. Then all of a sudden, your girlfriend ran towards us. I didn’t know they were siblings.”
Eungyu looked at Jaegwang...
And asked me again.....
“I thought you said that you met the girls who hit you... did you fight there then too?”
“Yeah...”
“..then did you see your brother drinking here too?”
“...huh? Yeah.”
I quickly covered Jaegwang’s mouth as he opened it to say something.
“...dammit, none of this makes any sense.. Hey kid, you’re not supposed to hit someone a year older than you.... don’t do that next time... I’m letting you off easy since you got hit too...”
Eungyu hit Jaegwang in the head once.
“Hyung! That bastard and my nuna used to be hella cl-”
“....I’m going.. go take your friend to the hospital.”
Before Jaegwang could yell anything else, I quickly dragged him with me.
When I turned around,
I could see Eungyu handing Kang Heewon something to wipe his blood off with..
Not yet huh....?
It’s still him before me... huh?
That’s why I can’t tell you ....
....sometimes it’s too hard to handle and I want to lean on you....
But I’m afraid you’ll run away. Run away to Kang Heewon...
I’m scared of that...
.....and so I can’t tell you...
+Alleyway+
Jaegwang continued to limp as we walked.
“...hey, how’d you get out of the house?”
“I snuck out like you did, what are you going to do about it.. <_<...”
“Hey~ You looked pretty good out there today~ Was he good at fighting?”
“.....who.. Kang Heewon...?”
“Yeah.”
“He was okay.. but nuna...”
“Yeah?”
“Is the hyung next door and that bastard friends? Why are you keeping it from him? Just tell him that he hit you.. then they’ll be like... not friends anymore.”
“That guy next door? He’s different that you, stupid, friendship comes before love to him.”
.......
.......
Right then, a familiar white car passed our house.
....and stopped in front of Eungyu’s house.
I hurriedly covered Jaegwang’s eyes.
And he threw my hands off...
Out came Sohyun unnie out of the white car and her ugly suitor.
He was silent...
“.....Jaegwang....”
".............."
“..Jaegwang....”
“...what the hell... I was just making myself look stupid....”
I don’t know what to say.......
“Nuna, can I have a smoke...?”
“Yeah.”
.....
.......
..........
“....I’m going to grow up to be better than that guy. And I’m going to get a car better than what that guy has, I’ll make Sohyun regret that she chose him over me...”
“Okay, make her regret that she didn’t choose my little brother!”
“Yeah....”
That morning us two,
Snuck inside,
And both fell asleep.
+Next Morning+
“Jungwon! Go get the clothes from upstairs!!!”
“..okay~”
These days, I can’t talk back to her....
Helplessly,
I opened the attic door.....
And was gathering all of our clothes when....
.....
“Why didn’t you answer your phone when I called you this morning?”
“...huh?”
I spotted Eungyu with his arms lightly crossed on his attic.
“Are you going somewhere?”
“Yeah.”
“Must be a pretty nice place, seeing that you’re dressed like that.”
“I’m taking music lessons today~ ^0^”
“With your band?”
“No, just the vocals~! ^0^ , oh right.. here..”
...
...
He pulled something shiny out of his pocket and he aimed it right at my laundry basket...
“What is this?”
“A knife~~~”
“Knife??”
“If someone bugs you, just stab then ^0^. Go inflict some damage on them!! You’re always getting hit! Oop! I’m late, see you !!”
“Wait! Vocal? Who are the vocals?”!
“Nari~ Nari~ Gae Nari~~!” (<-- TN: That’s a kid song in Korea.)
“...you two are going together....? When are you getting back?”
“Tomorrow.”
“Tomorrow? You’re skipping school....? Crazy! Hey, why are only you two going?!”
“...I don’t know. Her uncle told her to only bring the singers~ We’re riding the train there~ Lucky me, huh?! ^0^, I’m late, I have to go!! I’ll call you!”
“Be careful okay? You BETTER call!!!”
Grinning brightly, Eungyu skipped down the stairs...
..something inside me bubbled....
....
.....
Well, Nari has a boyfriend.... she’s a good kid... I don’t have to worry. ^_^...
I shoved the laundry into my basket, and gave it to my mom....
A little while later, after hearing my mom’s scream... I had to kneel in front of her and lift my arms above me head.
The this she had found when she dumped everything out.. was my knife...
It was as big as my pinky and had a pinkish tint to the blade.
On the handle, there was a picture that Shin Eungyu had taken...
....with ‘My Piggy <3’ carved under it….
