“Eunsung! Have you eaten?”
Kim Hyobin asked breaking the silence.

“no.”

“Why? You have to eat!!”

“It’s nasty.”

“You can’t starve! Let’s eat..”

“Kim Hyobin.. go out for a moment.”

“.......why..”

“Just because.”

“..no.”

“Listen to me.”

“I don’t want to this time.”

“Hey..”

“...........Yehwon has something to say to you. Right Yehwon?”

That foxy b***h.. <_<

“What is it?”
He said turning his eyes towards me.

“What do you have to say to me?”

“...When you do go to school?”

He let out a smile.

“It’s not that.. It’s something else.”

Kim Hyobin said.

“Right.. uh.. when do you get out??”

...this time he lost the smile and just stared at me with a sincere expression on his face.

“What is it you want to tell me.”

................
.....................
............................

"..........."

“Yehwon, do you want me to tell him instead??”

Dammit Kim Hyobin, I feel like breaking your face.

“..........”

For a while. the room was silent..

“Have a good life.. This is my last time coming to see you.”

Eunsung.. what I just said is a lie.. look at my eyes~~~~ My eyes are telling you what I feel.. dammit look at my eyes!! Ignore what my mouth just said and look at my FRICKEN eyes....

Silently.. Ji Eunsung just stared at me...
Damn.. he has pretty eyes.. It doesn’t match a guy a dirty temper like you.

Yes... look at my eyes... or what you can see of it.. <_< (they’re swollen cause she drank so much)

“Is that what you wanted to say?”

No.. No~~ I told you to look at my eyes...~~

“...Stop.. it...”

.................

“Huh?”

“I said stop it.. ****.. how stupid do you want to make me?!?!?!”

.........for a second.. Kim Hyobin and I were so surprised we just stared at him silently. They’re shaking again.. his pupils.. this always happens when he’s mad.. they always shake.

“What are you doing to do if I say I need to see you...”

..O_O.. are you holding onto me.. T_T

“If you won’t see me, I can’t help that.. but what are you going to do I say I need to see you?”

How do I answer him? .. Kim Hyobin’s crying next to me.. What do I tell him??

What she told me is schoing back at me..

I live with my mom..

I was lonely..

I’ve never gotten what I wanted...

Tell him it’s your last...

I can’t tell him.. I can’t tell him I like him in front of this girl who likes him this much.

“Let’s talk next time.”

This was the best answer I could think of for both of them..

“No. Answer me here.”

Okay.. fine.. Kim Hyobin.. I’m really sorry...
But.. I like him too much..

“I li-”

“Wait!”

It was then...when Kim Hyobin said what I’d forgotten.

# 32

With a shaking voice she said

“Ji Eunsung.. you didn’t forget what happened between us that night did you? .. and you promised me also.”
..............
................

If she’s talking about that night...His birthday...
I’d forgotten about that night.

Ji Eunsung was silent.

He looked as is he was keeping back his anger.. or trying to.

Kim Hyobin continued to talk.

“You know what we promised that night right? But how could you do this to me??”

..............
..................

“Shut up..”
Ji Eunsung said.. and silence....

Kim Hyobin silently wiped away a trail of endless tears.

.. Ji Eunsung.. the guy who wouldn’t even touch my hand..
....and ...that night.. the image kept playing my head...

“I’m going to take responsibility of actions.. So shut up.. Don’t say anything more in front of Yehwon.. Don’t say any of that **** in front of Yehwon.”

“****??”

The scene is getting weirder and weirder...

“How can you do this to me??? Han Yehwon.. Listen to me.. Ji Eunsung and I slept together that night!! And he said he was going to take responsibility of his actions. He promised!! Get it??!”

Tears were starting to gather.. dammit.. this isn’t how it was supposed to go.

I can’t get the scene out of my head and I couldn’t say anything.. I wanted to run out..

Ji Eunsung who was just glaring at Hyobin said in a soft voice full of anger, “Kim Hyobin.. you haven’t been hit by a guy have you..”

.................
....................
The way things are going right now.. it really did seem as if Eunsung would hit her..

“Ji Eunsung. don’t talk like that.. I have to be going now. Kim Hyobin, want to go out together?” I can’t leave her alone in a room with him..

I didn’t have enough in my to keep looking at Eunsung..

“Don’t go.”
Ji Eunsung said softly staring at me..

“I’ll come next time..”

“When’s next time.”

“......next time..”

“And I’m asking when ‘next time’ in all my years of living.. I’ve had to wait too much... How long are you going to make me wait..”

"................"

Tears had started to flow.. why did that seem so sad to me?? Exactly what had he had to go through in his life..

“Don’t cry.. if you cry I get pissed of.. don’t cry.”

Right then Floppy opened the door and barged it.. in one hand there was a bag.. and in another was a box of cigarettes.

“Huh? Yehwon’s here. Where’s Kyungwon?! Hey.. why are you guys crying??”

“Sorry.. I’ll be going.”

I didn’t have the confidence or the strength to be standing there right now..
I walked past Seungpyo who had a clueless expression on his face.. I smiled at him and walked out.

“Hey Han Yehwon.”
I heard but I ignored him and didn’t turn around.
I just closed the door behind me and walked out..

“Eunsung!! Where are you going?? You’re not in any condition to get up! Ji Eunsung!! Are you crazy? I’ll go bring her back,.”

I heard Seungpyo yell on the other side of the door.

Before he could catch or even see me.. I quickly stared to run away.
And I ran all the way home.

I can’t get the scene out of my head.. Kim Hyobin and Ji Eunsung together.. I shouldn’t be thinking about that.. It was probably a mistake.. but I can’t. I can’t understand why I’m angry.. why I fell betrayed..

When I walked home.. my mom was waiting for me..

“Jungmin was looking for you.”

Oh yeah.. Jungmin.. I’d forgotten about him.. That day at the arcade..
I wonder how mad he was when he got hit because of me.
And I was crying in front of him saying I wanted to see the guy who’d hit him.

Han Yehwon.. you’re lower than dirt..

If there was any poison.. I’d want to drink it and just die right there.

I should go see Jungmin.. but I’m not in the mood to right now..
And when I turned my head to the right I saw Kyungwon and Jungmin both grinning at me from the front door.

“You’re back! How is he??” Jungmin asked grinning.

“It was fine.. Before that.. why don’t you guys let go of your hands..”

“Oh. oh!! Was Seungpyo there also?”

Kyungwon asked..

“Yeah.. he was..”

“What’s wrong??”

“Oh nothing.?

“So Jungmin! You’re leaving in 4 days!! Where should we go today??”

Kyungwon asked.. she didn’t even ask about Seungpyo..

I’m not in the mood to be with them right now...

But I decided to ignore everything that happened earlier for Jungmin.
That night we were up until 2 in the morning just playing.

Actually it was more like Kyungwon and Jungmin playing and me just thinking..

And the remaining four days passed like that... And on the day of his departure.. oppa and me.. Kyungown.. mom.. Jungmin’s parents and Jungmin were all gathered at the airport.

# 33

“WAHHHH!!!!!!!!! WAH!!!!!! Jungmin!! When you arrive call me!!!” <-- Jungmin’s mom.

“Say hi to your sister for me.. and don’t waste this money.. Study.. And when you come over during winter break.. cut that damn hair of yours..” <-- Jungmin’s dad.

“Hey, be careful dude, of you know like the terrorists and bombs. When you come over next time, don’t forget to buy me chocolate.” <-- the human I call my brother.

I’ll write you letters.. and I’ll send you messages okay?? And you promised to come over during winter break.” <-- Kyungwon.. I know I’ve said this before.. but it’s really suspicious..

Jungmin forced a smile, trying to hide his tears. He’d tied his hair up.. He wouldn’t cut it even though I bribed him with 30 dollars.

Like the first.. he was smiling..
It was my turn.

“See you.. When you get there call me.. and write letters okay?? And you have to come over during winter break.. and.. and I’m sorry.”

“Why are you crying??”

“I don’t know.. They’re just coming out.”

As I started crying.. everyone there started to cry also.. Not including my brother.

Jungmin was crying the hardest.. and it was kind of embarrassing.

“WAHH WAHHHH!! I promise to come over during winter break. I’m going to miss you all. And Yehwon.. there’s nothing you need to be sorry about.. I’m actually thankful that I have a friend like you.. And if that bastard makes you cry again.. I’ll dress up as a gangter and beat the crap out of him for you. Okay? So stop crying.”

<_< why don’t you follow your own advice Lee Jungmin..

“I’m really going!! There plane’s about to leave. I love you all!! BYE-BYE!!”
And with that.. Jungmin disappeared behind the gates and all of us were left to cry except my brother.
If I weren’t one of the people crying, I’d have thought it was funny.

We all left the airport and I got in a car with my brother, my mom and Kyungwon.

“Who the guy?? HUH?”

My mom asked..

“What guy?”

“That guy Jungmin was talking about.”

“Who IS that guy..”
Han Seungpyo.. do you want to die..?

“It’s nothing.. Jungmin doesn’t know what he’s talking about. It’s just a guy I know.”

“Oh I see. Well see what you know then.”
Mom.. T_T just leave me alone~~

I glanced over at Kyungwon who had her eyes closed..

“Mom.. I don’t know anything.. ow.. my stomach hurts..” Even though I’m the one lying I sound stupid..

So for a long time.. my brother and my mom were bothering me to tell them what Jungmin was talking about..

The thing that’s amazing though is how Kyungwon just fell asleep so quickly and when we reached a restaurant her eyes opened instantaneously.

That night when I laid down on my bed.. I could only think of Jungmin...
I feel so bad...
But then.. when I think of him and Kyungwon I don’t feel bad anymore.
I hope the don’t like each other.. nah, it can’t be..

Hmm.. Kyungwon that girl.. where is she? I’ve been calling her but she won’t answer...
Maybe she drank poison and died because Jungmin went back to America..
Nah.. Kyungwon might die from eating too much.. but never from poisoning..
Whoa.. what am I talking about right now?? -_- ? Right then...

+Ring~~+

My phone rang.. Hmm I wonder if it’s Kyungwon.

“Hello?”

It’s silent... I hear loud sounds from over the receiver..

“Hello..”

It’s still silent.. So I just hung up..

As soon as I hung up.. I felt even weird..
Who was it.. maybe it was Jungmin..
I waited again for the someone to call me again. but it didn’t.
I think I even hoped for it to be Ji Eunsung..

So until 12 I waited for the person to call again.. And just when I when I fell asleep my phone rang again..

Thinking it might be Ji Eunsung I quickly flipped it open.

“HELLO!?!??!!?”

# 34

“Hello.. who is it??”

“Han Yehwon.. Come out.”

“...Eunsung...”

“Come out.... this is.. this is... Shinwhul elementary school.. come out..”

“Are you drunk?? Did you come out of the hospital?”

"........"

“Stupid! You’re not even well yet what are you drinking for? How’d you get out with your leg?”

“Come out.”

“Stop staying that.. how’d your leg??”

“.............come out.. I..”

“..................”

“.. I’ve become crazy because of you....”

What are you saying.. Why are you talking like that.. it’s not like you. Exactly how much have you drunk??

“Hey.. are you alone? How much did you drink?”

“Look.. I waited. but you didn’t come.. You said you would.. ****.. I waited.. and in the end you didn’t come..”

“Where are you?? Shinwhul Elementary school? Wait there okay?? Just wait there. And don’t talk to any passer-byers. Just stay there!!!”

The time was 2 in the morning..
Thinking that something had happened to him, I quickly closed the front gate and ran out.
I cried from happiness and I cried from sadness...

I was happy that I heard his voice.. and I was sad that I heard his voice

I seriously think I’m going to go crazy.. Shinwhul elementary school? I’ve only been there once... I can’t exactly remember where it was.. and I finally found it after some time..
I looked around... but Ji Eunsung wasn’t there..

Did he leave already..? Or did I hear him wrong.... it’s not that...
This is Shinwhul’s entrance..
But he wasn’t there.. I didn’t see Ji Eunsung waiting for me..

...I waited.. I waited.. because he waited for me. now it was my turn to wait for him.. it was a chilly Autumn morning.. But I waited for 3 hours.. I think I fell asleep.. and when I woke up... it was morning and Ji Eunsung hadn’t come.

I thought about going straight to the hospital.. but instead I went home...
I’m lucky today’s a Sunday...

I went home and looked at my phone... 15 missed calls?

...are they from Ji Eunsung??

Right then.. the phone rang.

“HELLO!?

“Crap you scared me..”

“Oh it’s you.”

“Were you waiting for a call?”

"......................"

“Something happened didn’t it?”

“............Kyungwon there’s something I haven’t told you.”

“What is it?”

“Don’t get angry after you hear..”

“Well.. tell me!”

And so I did..
I told her I went to Ji Eunsung’s hospital room, and saw Kim Hyobin.. and I told her about the call I got from him but when I got there he wasn’t there.. When I finished she was silent..

“Why didn‘t you tell me....."

“Jungmin was here.. and it felt weird to tell you guys.. What do I do.. I don’t feel strong enough to go to the hospital..

“Han Yehwon.. want me to tell you your mistake..?”

“Mistake...”

“You’re stupid huh??’

“I know.. I know... But what do I do?? I don’t know what to do..”

“It’s not that.. Hey, don’t you know Shinwhul elementary school has 2 gates??? An entrance and an exit.”

“WHAT???????????!!!!!!!!!!!????????????!!!!!!!!!??????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

“Tsk. Where were you?”

“The entrance..”

“Well then. I guess he was at the exit.”

“I’m going. see you.”

"...?"

“I’m going to the hospital. I’ll call you later!!”

“....Eunsung and Kim Hyobin.. are you okay with the fact that they slept together?”

“I don’t care!! Hang up!!!”

It feels as if I got hit with a hammer..

Stupid Han Yehwon.. Stupid idiot Han Yehwon.. why didn’t you even think of there being Exit and Entrance gates?

I quickly ran towards the hospital..
I don’t know where I suddenly got the courage.

And on the way there I was thinking..

Eunsung .. I don’t care what you did with any other girl. I’m not going to run away because of that reason... The only thing I like.. the only think I see is you..

When I reached the hospital.. the nurses all looked at me with unwelcoming glares.


“Eunsung!!”

I yelled flinging the hospital room wide open. And I was shocked to see Wang Bitna.. Floppy.. Hyunsung.. and above that 3 other Sang guys Kim Hyobin.. another girl from Sang... 8 people were all surrounding Ji Eunsung on his hospital cot.

Damn.. oh well it doesn’t matter..
Because I came to see Ji Eunsung.

All of their expressions were cold.

“Yehwon.. you’re here..” Floppy said offering a tiny smile.. I only have you Floppy...

“*pant* Yeah.. how’s Eunsung?”

“....Eunsung has a weird personality. It’s weird Yehwon..”

“Huh??”

“Last night.. He left his room and came back at 8 this morning.. He caught a bad cold.. And he’s not talking..”

“What are you saying??” I quickly neared the cot where he was laying..

“Hey.. what the hell..” Wang Bitna said but I ignored her and neared Eunsung..

“Hey.. what’s wrong..”

“.......get out.”

“Are you okay?? How’s your cold?”

“I don’t want to wait anymore. I don’t want to get mad at you so get out.. I’ll let you go. so get out..”

“Hey.. he said get out.. don’t you hear him?? Get lost!” Wang Bitna yelled.

“Even if you say you’re going to let me go.. I won’t... I’m going to stick to you no matter what. Besides.. you sound weird talking in that kind of voice so stop it. So get up.. I have a lot to tell you.” Even though I said it, it sounds crazy...

Ji Eunsung’s face expression didn’t change once..

“The thing I hate the most is being made a fool.. and right now and this morning.. it’s what you made me..”

“It’s a misunderstanding!! Now I’m going to stick to you even if you don’t want me to!!!”

There was a chilling silence in the room..

“Get.. out...”
He said coldly..

“****.. he said get out!!!” Wang Bitna yelled again...

And right then.. I got the biggest boost of courage I’d ever had..

I grabbed the guys neck.. luckily he was sick and didn’t have enough strength to push me away..
And before anyone could say anything I smacked my lips of top of his.. And this was our second bizzarro kiss..

I knew he was going to push me away.. but.. what the hell is this.. he’s not..
..so ... we were making out in front of like 8 kids.. and the only thing I could think was. is this really his first..?

Of coarse for me it wasn’t.. hehe. there was this guy in 8th grade.. ^_^
No one even bothered to stop us.. and the only thing that stopped us was Kim Hyobin’s cry.

# 35

I think at least 4 minutes have passed... Damn I can’t breathe..

Making weird noises I lifted my lips off his..

Everyone was staring at us with a stupid expressions...

And I could hear Kim Hyobin’s cries..

“Do you want to die?!?!” Ji Eunsung asked returning to his old self.
One of his eyebrow’s are scrunched near the front ... hmm.... it’s been a while since I’ve seen that face of his..

“You’re the one who accepted!!!”

“Who are you saying accepted?!?!?”

Haha.. you’re funny... <_<

“Did you turn your neck?? Or did you NOT turn your neck?!?!”

I don’t know what possessed me to say those things to him. It was probably the fact that I didn’t see anyone within my sight except Ji Eunsung.”

“****.. What number was this one?!” (TN: They’re talking about the kiss.)

“What are you talking about? I can list them off the top of my fingers..”

He glared at me again.. Like when he gets mad.. his eyes are shaking..

“I’m just kidding..... ( I said thinking that if I didn’t say that I’d get hit with a casted leg)

But still his eyes were shaking..
I’m serious.. it was only the guy next door and you.. T_T

And it was then..

“Come out here.”
Wang Bitna said.

Kim Hyobin continued to cry...

“You go yourself..” It was Ji Eunsung..

“Hey Ji Eunsung.. Do you have anything in there? Huh?” She yelled pointing to her head.

“Eunsung.. it you were too harsh..” One of the guys said..

“Right.. you don’t do that in front of your girlfriend.” Another one said..

What do I do.. it’s 2: 8

“What? How do I have to act in front of Kim Hyobin...” Ji Eunsung asked quietly..
Everyone was silent...

Except Wang Bitna..

“Hey. Han Yehwon.. after I asked you to.. After I practically begged you too... How could you do this to me?” Kim Hyobin yelled crying.

Wang Bitna smirked at me, “you die today you ****ing b***h.”

“Wang Bitna.. get out.. And Kim Hyobin.. what did you ask Yehwon to do for you?”

........silence.............

“Fine.. I asked her not to see you or meet you.. I begged her not to meet you.. There are you happy?! You know how much I like you!!! But how could you do this to me?! You said you’d take responsibility!! You promised me!!”

Kim Hyobin yelled loud enough for the hospital to shake..

Everyone stared surprised at Kim Hyobin.. except Wang Bitna and Ji Eunsung.

“I told you I would didn’t I? Hey, I’ll get married to you.. happy?? But I’m going to get married when I’m 70 so come find me then. Before I turn 70.. don’t appear in front of Yehwon or my eyes.”

...Isn’t that a little harsh...? No.. it was really harsh...

“And everyone in here listen to me.. Do I seem easy because I’m laying here with a cast? Don’t piss me off.. Wang Bitna.. from this moment on.. don’t make me hear your voice..
Don’t lay a finger on Yehwon.. If I hear one word that you did.. That day.. you die and I laugh got that? If you think I’m joking.. just try it..”

Eunsung.. you’re so perfect...

And with those thoughts I slowly stood behind Eunsung..

Even with Eunsung by my side they were all so scary..

“Ji Eunsung.. I’m disappointed in you..”

# 36

It was Hyunsung...
The atmosphere of the room turned quiet once again..

“What is it this time?”

“You’re were a little harsh aren’t you?”

“Do you still like Kim Hyobin?”

Wait. wait.. what’s this I’m hearing?? So Hyunsung likes Kim Hyobin?? Is that what he’s saying...

“What?” Hyunsung’s mad.. oh no..

“If you like Kim Hyobin go tell her.. Don’t come to me and say Kim Hyobin Kim Hyobin.. Just hearing her name pisses me off!!!”


..............
................
...................

Crying.. Kim Hyobin ran out of the room with Wang Bitna and the other Sang girl.

“Dirty bastard..” There wasn’t even enough time to stop him. Hyunsung let his fist fly and hit Eunsung square in the jaw.

The other guys grabbed ahold of Hyunsung and kept him back. Ji Eunsung just fingered his jaw shocked.. not from the fact that it hurt.. from the fact that his friend had hit him...

“Kim Hyunsung.. ... Of all the people in the world YOU decide to throw me away because of some girl.”

“Bastards like you have to get hit more often you know that? Have you ever thought of anyone’s feelings besides yours? Have you?!”

“Haha.. Why? Why do you think I did?? The person who knows why I hate Kim Hyobin so much.. The only bastard who knows why I hate her.. You’re saying that to me? .. do you really want to die?? Do you want to see what’s scary?”

For a moment.. Hyunsung froze... I think he felt the coldness and seriousness of Eunsung’s words..

He stormed out of the room along with the other 2 Sang guys.

Inside the room was Floppy.. Ji Eunsung and me.. us 3..

Eunsung was looking down silently..

“Eunsung are you okay?”

Floppy asked quietly..

"................"

Ji Eunsung was silent...

The reason he really hates her?? I wonder what it is...
I was curious.. but it wasn’t time to ask that..

“Eunsung.. are you okay??”

“WHATEVER!! YOU SHUT UP!!”

“Why are you yelling!!”

“...bet you went around kissing every guy you could see.”

“Are you still pissed about that?? ^_^ How cute~ My little baby..”

“Shut up.. Do you want to die? Don’t call me baby.. I hate that word.”

“When I ask you how you’re doing you ignore me and when Yehwon asks you answer.. Eunsung’s mean!!” Floppy said.

Oh! This is more like the Floppy I know.. Whoever knew I’d be glad to see him act like this??

“Aren’t you leaving??” Ji Eunsung asked... He’s going to hit me as soon as Floppy leaves.. I just know it..

“I don’t want to.. It’s scary out there.”

“Then go out the window..”

“But it’s the 3rd floor!!”

“Then shut up!!”

“Eunsung’s mean! Did you leave me for HER already?”

“Shh.”

With that one ‘shh’ Floppy shut up.. Whoa.. I don’t know that actually works..

Oh yeah.. I have something to tell him..

“Ji Eunsung!! Shinwhul has two entrances, an exit and an entrance!! I was at the entrance and you were at the exit!! I was there until 7 thin morning!! I swear!!”

“Loud of crap.. don’t lie..”

“I swear!! Ask Kyungwon..”

“Oh! Right! Where’s Kyungwon?!”

Crap.. I shouldn’t have said her name.. now Floppy’s looking for Kyungwon.. what do I do?”

“Uh.. Kyungwon’s not feeling well.”

“Where!?”

“Her... uh.... neck!!”

“What happened to her neck?!”

“She got it .. uh stuck in her window ( sorry Kyungwon.. but this is the only way to get him to shut up..)”

“Is it broken??”

“No it’s just...”

“I’m going to go visit her!!”

“Huh?!”

“I’m going to her house!!”

“You know where she lives?”

“Duh!”

“No! You can’t go, her dad’s home and her grandpa!! A-and that’s not all!! Her great grandma’s there also!!”

“.........I just go in front of her house and look at her through the window.”

“No!!! Seungpyo~~~~~~~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

Before I could stop him.. Seungpyo ran out.. T_T
I couldn’t even hold him back because of the scary Sang kids outside the room.

Damn.. Kyungwon’s going to kill me.. T_T.

“Where’s the Yankee?”

Yankee? Jungmin..?? A word they used often in the 70’s : YANKEE.

“He went to America!”

“He’s the one from America right??

“Yeah..”

“Do you like him?”

“What the.. I’ve known him since I was 7!!

“Load of ****..”

“Stop cussing!!!!”

".............."

"......................."

“It’s been a while.. us talking like this...”

“Yeah I know.. ^_^ ”

“You’re not going to avoid me anymore are you?”

Stupid dork.. at times like these you’re supposed to say, “don’t go away from me now..”
It sounds nicer that way....

I nodded and he grinned at me..
During the time we were going out.. he’d only smirked at me.. But this is the first time he’s ever grinned at me.. It was kinda funny...

“When do you get out??”

“I don’t know!! My condition got worse after leaving yesterday!!!”

“You brought this upon yourself!!”

“I went out for you!!! Stupid!!!”

“Don’t cuss!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

...This is how we spent the first day back together.. fighting immaturely..
I promised that I’d come to the hospital right after school...
AND I promised to call before I go to bed.. and on the way to the hospital tomorrow.. he made me promise to buy him something to eat.

I sneaked out slowly so that the Sang kids wouldn’t catch me.. T_T It’s going to be hard sneaking in tomorrow since Kim Hyobin’s room is next door.

# 37

Next day at school

“Han Yehwon.. say it..”

“Say what??”

“What the hell did you tell Seungpyo yesterday!??!!?!?!”

“Oh.. he asked why you didn’t come.. so to save myself I told him you hurt your neck.”

“WAHHH. WAHHHH... He yelled so much yesterday!! T_T”

“Like you’re any better!! Why are you ignoring and avoiding him!!”

“What?? I’m going to surprise him on Saturday (TN: Korea has a half day on Saturday.)

“You’re lying! Do you think I’m stupid!?”

“What?? No I’m not!”

“Why’s your face red then!?”

“My face is not red!! What’s wrong with you these days??”

And with that.. she fled out of the room..
Weird..? Me..? You’re the weird one..

After lunch... and after 6th period.. Kyungwon was still mad.. Now that loves comes back.. Friendship leaves.. T_T

“Hey....Lee Kyungwon..”

.............

“Kyungwon...”

.....................

“You b***h!! You promise to go to Sang this Saturday!! You’re going to say sorry to Seungpyo right?!”

“Okay!! I’m going!! Stop it!!”

“Why are you yelling.. Whatever.. I’m going to go visit Eunsung.. I’m not going to care about Seungpyo and you..”

What’s wrong with me..?? Everyone I know is weird..

Hmm. what do I buy Eunsung??”
Oh yeah.. since I wasn’t with him on his birthday.. I guess I’ll just buy him a cake.

^_^ Han Yehwon.. you genius..

I grabbed all my money from my wallet (which wasn’t much) And threatened Kyungwon to give me money so I got 8 dollars from her.

I bought a cake.. and I headed over to the hospital..

Actually.. I was scared of Wang Bitna so I tried covering my face with the cake...

I could hear loud sounds coming over from Kim Hyobin’s room..

The girls were yelling loudly and cussing.. They’re probably talking about me.. <_<.

“I’m here baby~!”

“I told you not to call me that.”

“What the hell are you doing?”

“I’m reading!!!”

And so he was.. Ji Eunsung was reading a book with his leg up in a sling... and his broken arm behind his head.....

“Are you really?” I asked nearing him..

“Well I’m bored!!”

“.. is that book.. fun??”

“It’s okay..”

.... you’re calling a picture book ’okay’ ... not just any book.. Ali Baba and the 40 thieves... Exactly what is your IQ? If I opened your head.. what would I find?

But I couldn’t find the nerve to actually make fun of him because he looked so cute reading the picture book.”

“I bought a cake~~”

“What kind is it?”

“It’s whipped cream! It was expensive~~”

“I don’t like whipped cream!!”

“You could have at least pretended to be happy!!”

“How can I pretend to be happy when I don’t like it?! Are you stupid?!”

“...<_< never mind.. Well.. more for me..”

“NO NEED TO DO THAT~~~~!!!!”

Holy crap..

Seungpyo (Floppy) you came in so quietly..

“I like cream cake!! Yehwon, thanks~~!!”

“You- you welcome.. at least someone likes it.....”

“Alright!! It’s Bbari Baguette!! (TN: I have no clue what that is.. probably the maker..)

Seungpyo opened the box like a crazed animal and picked up a fork just about to stab it.

“Don’t eat it!!!!!!!!!”

What’s wrong with him....”

“Eunsung.. you don’t like whipped cream..” Seungpyo said with a clueless expression.

“But why are you eating it?!”

“...what do you want me to do with it??” (still with the clueless expression)

“Just leave it there!!! If you touch it, you die!! If you want to get hit with my casted leg just smear the tiniest bit of that cream!!!”

How immature.. How can an 18-year-old be that immature??

“Ji Eunsung.. If you leave the cake it’ll get mold all over it!! Just let Seungpyo eat it!”

“Shut up.. It’s MY cake..”

Seungpyo put the cake down knowing about Eunsung’s tantrums.. instead he started teasing Eunsung..

“You’re not letting me eat it cause Y~~~~~~~~~~~ehwon bought it.!! HUH?!? HUH!??!?!”

“I told you not to come today... <_< “

“Okay. I’ll shut up.. But I’m not leaving. I don’t have any other place to be..”

“Is Hyunsung still pissed??”

“Yeah... he hasn’t said anything...”

“..dammit.. “

“Just make up.”

“...........go ask the nurse when I can leave..”

“Me?”

“Yeah! I think I’m going to go crazy from being cooped up here!!”

“..okay..”

How kind and obedient you are.. Seugpyo got up and walked out the door to ask the nurse when Eunsung would be able to leave. Kyungwon.. how could you cause that kind and obedient child pain?? The more I think about it.. Kyungwon’s a b***h..

“Hey.. lock the door.”

“.. what..”

“Hurry!! Hurry!! Lock the door!! He’s going to come in again!!”

...You call yourself a friend.... -_-

“I can’t do that.. How could you do that to kind Seungpyo??” (My hands were reaching for the lock while I was saying this <_<)

“I did good huh? ^_^”

“Yeah..”

# 38

THUMP .. THUMP... <-- sound of Seungpyo running towards us..

“Eunsung!! You can leave this Sunday!!” Seungpyo yelled cheerily.. (<-- for some reason I felt a little guilty.)

“What the..” Jingle.. Jingle.. ( sound of him trying to get the door open.)

“You assholes!!!”

“Sorry Seungpyo.. Eunsung made me do it..”

“Open the door~~ I seriously have no where to go~~”

“I’ll see you at night~~ Bye!!”

Ji Eunsung you’re so mean..
And while I’m thinking this I don’t even bother to go near the door..

After ten minutes of Seungpyo whining... he was gone. I think someone dragged him away.. probably another one of Eunsung’s friends...

“How can you do that to a friend.”

Right when he was respond.. My phone started ringing..
For some reason.. I don’t think I should answer in front of Ji Eunsung..

“Aren’t you going to answer?”

“..it’s not important..”

“Bring it here. I’ll answer it.”

“Not it’s okay. Hello?”

“Yehwon~~!!!”

“Huh? Yeah! It’s you!!”

“You? Do you know who I am?”

How can I not know?? You’re Jungmin.. But I can’t say your name in here right now..

“Of coarse I do~”

“Tch.. Who am I?”

...son of a b***h.. I can’t say your name right not..

“You’re my best friend!!!”

“Which one?!”

“Dammit Lee Jungmin!!”

...crap I said his name..

“Now you know!! You didn’t call!!”

“You know how much international calls are? Did you get there okay?”

“Of coarse!! Of coarse!! Hey.. I might move to Korea in the winter!!”

“What?!”

“HEHE. I called to tell you that!!”

“That’s great!! (but when I think of Kyungwon and Seungpyo.. It’s not that great..)

“Where are you right now??”

Where do you think?? I’m in the hospital room of the guy who punched the crap out of yu..

“..here?? It’s ... Kwachun!!”

“You think I don’t know that?? Where IN Kwachun.”

If I tell him I’m in a hospital he’ll start freaking out.
Right!! I’ll say it in English! Ji Eunsung won’t know what I’m talking about..
I guess I’ll say +++house++++

“Here?? +++HOUSE++++”

“Oh I see!! I’ll call you later!! Nuna’s calling me~”

“Okay bye!!”

Right after I hung up the phone I looked over at Ji Eunsung.. He was smoking..
Why’s he doing that??

“^o^ I hung up~~”

“...........”

“Are you mad?”

“.....”

“Oh come on! He’s a friend!!”

“It’s the Yankee isn’t it?”

“I told you it’s a friend! FRIEND.. He has a girlfriend!! (truthfully.. no he doesn’t.)

“Come closer.”

“You’re going to hit me aren’t you?”

“Come here.”

“No. It hurts when you it.”

“Have you ever been hit by me?!”

“..no..”

“Oh yeah.. what’s +++HOUSE++++ ?”

EHEHE.. I knew you wouldn’t know..

“++HOUSE++ is hospital in English~~”

“Stop lying!!”

“I swear it is!!”

“What if I know what hospital is in English?”

...haha.. I doubt it! I don’t even know what is it...

“... Wha- what is it?!”

“..Caught red-handed.. ****.. I’m going to kill you.”

“What is it? HUH?! HUH?!”

“Anyways.. you’re dead..”

“.... <_< (.. I don’t think he knows what is it..) WHAT IS IT?!”

“Don’t you know my mom is a translator?!”

I don’t remember hearing anyone ask you that..

But I pitied this guy here I call my boyfriend with sweat starting to gather around his forehead.. So I decided to change the subject..

“Mom? I want to meet her!”

Actually I don’t.. you know that thing? The son is always an exact image of their mom.. so she’ll probably have a crappy temper..

“...whatever...” He said in a dark expression..

“She must be smart if she’s a translator..”

“...don’t talk about her.. I’m tired. I think I’m going to take a nap.”

“Hey.. Ji Eunsung..”

“What?”

“...why do you have so many secrets?”
...........................

# 39

“............I don’t.”

“Liar. You have a lot.. You don’t like people touching you.. You don’t want to show me your mom..”

“That’s all I have..”

“..no.. there’s more.”

“Like what?”

That night with Kim Hyobin.. I wanted to ask. but I couldn’t...

"............."

“Like what??”

.......................

“No it’s nothing... It’s only those two..”

“Were you just curious why I don’t like touching people?”

“Yeah..”

“...you want to hear the reason right now..”

“Well yeah.”

“I can’t.”

“What?”

“I might tell someone else.. but I can’t tell you.. Even if you slit my throat or torture me.. I won’t tell you.. So don’t ask about that..”

I was silent..

"............."

“Are you mad?”

“................”

“Hope you understand it’s not easy for me to keep this from you..”

“Don’t worry.. I’m not mad.”

“Smile.”

“What?”

“If you’re not mad. Smile.”

....Just make me stand on my head why don’t know..

“^_^.. happy?”

“^_^;;; Happy?”

“Wipe that sweat away..”

“<_< ....................... ^0^ Happy?”

“Yeah.. now stop it.. I think I’m going to go blind..”

“<_<“

“It’s late. You better be going.”

“It’s only 6.”

“Girls like you have to be home before the sun sets!!!”

“...but that one time we came home at 12!!!”

“I didn’t like you back then..”

“So you ... like me now??”

“Stop talking stupid.. Hurry and go.. the sun’s setting.

“Tch. Have fun reading Ali Baba and the 40 Thieves!! I’m going!!”

“Buy me chocolate cake tomorrow!!”

“I don’t have money!!”

“Hey.. leave your phone here.”

“What? Mine?”

“YEAH!”

“Are you crazy?”

“You’re going to talk to that Yankee bastard again..”

“Fine. I’ll leave it here.. Give me yours.”

“What?”

“Give me your phone!! I’m going to take yours!”

“Mine’s a SKY phone..”

“..forget it...I’m going..”

“NO SWITCH~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!!!”

So we did....

# 40

..Ji Eunsung.. is stupid.. I could just call Jungmin to call my house instead of my phone..

-_-...

“Hey.. can you write text messages on this piece of crap?”

...<_< do you want to die?

“I’m going. I’ll see you tomorrow.”

Before he could say anything about switching back the phones I quickly headed towards the door.

“Don’t forget to eat dinner!! I’ll bring you Dduk Bbok Kki tomorrow!! BYE!!”

“HEY!! HAN YEHWON!!”

I heard the dude yell as soon as I closed the door behind me.

“What now?!”

“...just wanted to tell you I hella like you a lot. Get going!!”

...did you have to tell me that with the cuss word in it? Did you HAVE to say +hella+ ?

“Yeah.. I hella love you a lot~”

“Do you want to die?!”

Before he could go into one of his cussing rages.. I quickly closed the door behind me.

Hehhee. I’m going to snoop around.. I’m going to read all your messages and see how many girls you have in your phone book.


“Mom, I’m home!!!”

“Where do you go everyday?!”

“I was at school..”

“..you were at school until 7...”

“You know my school ^_^..”

“Shut up and go check up on your brother. I think he’s gone crazy.”

“Why??”

“How would I know why your brother’s gone crazy? I’m too scared to even ask.”

“Mom.. let me tell you one thing..”

“..?”

“He’s not my brother.. he’s your son.”

“Come here..”

“Oppa’s in his room right!?”

....
...

“Oppa?”

“DAMN! Kim Hansung that ****ing bastard!!”

“...oppa?”

“What? Who the hell is it??”

“Guess.” I said sarcastically.

“Go to your room.”

“What’s up?”

“Kim Hansung that bastard..”

Did that human lend money and not get paid back?
Wait.. Kim Hansung?? I’ve heard that name before..

Oh yeah.. What do I care about this human?

HEHE. I have to go look through his messages.

...3 text messages..

“I’m serious.. call me.. I’m going to tell...”

That was the newest one..
It came 10 minutes ago.. Why didn’t I see it?? Last??

“Eunsung.. call me.. I have something to say..”

That came 2 hours ago.. same number.. It’s probably Kim Hyobin.. right?

“Answer the phone.. I’m the one who should be mad.”

This is the same number.. I’m sure it’s Kim Hyobin..

What is this? This is no fun..

So I went to the sent folder.. and saw one..

“Okay..”

This was is.. Well. he doesn’t know how to use email...

+RINGRINGRING!+

..What do I do? Do I answer?

There was a number.. but it wasn’t Kim Hyobin’s...

+RING RING RINGG!!+

What do I do.. I just stared and it stopped..

But it started ringing just a few minutes later..

Sky phone’s are good.. there’s a blinking light...

A while later.. the phone stopped.

What do I do? I should probably tell him that he had a call.

..There’s a message..
Wait.. not a text.. a voice mail..
Who is it..? I guess it’s okay to listen to it.

“1 New message... BEEP....”

“Eunsung it’s me Hyunsung.. What are you doing right now? You’re not even answering the phone... Right now. Hyobin’s threatening to tell Yehwon.. She’s going around asking everyone what her number is... That time I sided with Hyobin.. I was just doing that to get her to shut up.. It was just a misunderstanding.. Anyways.. I’m going to try to stop her so don’t worry.. BEEP..”

....what’s all this??
What’s Kim Hyobin going to tell me?
Is there something else she has to tell me?
...what other happenings were there between the two?

I quickly called Hyunsung..

“EUNSUNG?!”

“It’s Yehwon..”

“.....oh.. uh.. hi..?”

“I have Eunsung’s phone.. I heard the voicemail.. sorry for snooping..”

"................"

.............
.................
...................

“Do you think you can tell me?”

“What are you talking about?”

“..the thing Kim Hyobin is trying to tell me.. Do you think you can tell me??”

“..sorry.. I don’t think I can.”

“Why?”

“Because I promised Eunsung.”

“Please can you just tell me?”

“Sorry.. I promised Eunsung.”

“What if I hear if from Kim Hyobin? It seems like it’s about me.”

“..............I promised Eunsung..”

“But don’t you think it’s better for me to hear it from you than Kim Hyobin?”

“......what’s your address...”
