Chapter 19

Hurt

Yunho’s pov..

I took Hero home, and I walked him to the front door this time. It is so weird, how come Hero is letting me take him home today? I thought he would always ask me to drop him off by the front gate of school.

“Yunnie..” Hero called and cut off my thought, “You didn’t talk much tonight, is something bothering you?”

I quickly smiled and shake my head but then I frowned a little when an image of Jaejoong flashed in my mind. I looked up at Hero and somehow I could see part of Jaejoong from Hero’s eyes, “Hero ah.. is Jaejoong really like how you described?”

I questioned him, because I am really confused right now. Part of me is not really trusting what Hero said, but I really want to trust this Hero in front of me, but.. I felt like a voice at the back of my head is screaming at me..

“Yunnie, you don’t trust me?” Hero said and stared at me with his big eyes.

“No.. it’s not that..” I answered and didn’t want to upset him, “It’s just.. I really wish to learn more you and your past, so I would like to hear all the stories happened to you before.”

Hero sighed a little: “My past is very sad, and I try not to think too much about it. Yunnie ah, don’t make me recall everything please.”

I nodded and held onto Hero’s hand: “I will see you in school tomorrow then.”

Quickly I pecked him on the lips, Hero smiled at me and waved good-bye to me as the turned to the front door. I stared at his back and there were many thoughts on my mind but Jaejoong’s soft voice and leaving figure kept on appearing in my mind at the second. Sure, Jaejoong and Hero look the same, but I know the person I am thinking right now is Jaejoong.

I could see the deep bruises on his face, and I could see the corner of his mouth still bleeding a little. I could hear his soft voice that I recognized from somewhere that I couldn’t really recall. I could see his leaving figure shaking a little when he took every step out from my vision.

“You are the dumbest man in the world..”

Yoochun’s sentence ringed in my ear. I shake my head hard, and went back to my car as I drove back to my house. I immediately opened my msn, but “Blue” wasn’t online. I really hope that I could meet him one day and tell all about my trouble and ask him what I should do with them.

Without much pausing, my fingers traveled around the keyboard as I typed..

“Blue.. I wish to see you in person soon, how come we meet in front of the bench in DongBang park on this Friday, 6 p.m. I will bring something very noticeable, and I am sure you will find me there.”

I closed the window and I knew “Blue” would meet me there, so I didn’t need to wait for his response. I had been chatting with him for a while, and somehow I felt so close with him already and we could be the best friends ever if we get to meet in person. I lied down on my bed and turned off the light as I went into a deep sleep..

End of pov..

Hero walked back into the house and he knew that Yunho is already starting to suspect him. Hero pov- It’s okay, he won’t find anything else, plus, Jaejoong wouldn’t dare to bring any trouble to me.

“Hero ah..” Mrs. Kim called from the living room.

Hero looked over and walked in: “Umma! You are still awake.”

Mrs. Kim: “Hero ah! Changmin is back!”

Hero widened his eyes and said: “W.. what? Who?”

Mrs. Kim smiled a little: “Changmin! You don’t remember him? He came back from Japan for an exchange student program and he came by tonight but you wasn’t home so he told me to give you his number.”

Mrs. Kim handed Hero a piece of paper with Changmin’s number on there, Mrs. Kim continued: “He wanted to see you soon, and he said he has something important to tell you.”

“See me?” Hero asked, “Are you sure, he said he wanted to see me?”

Mrs. Kim looked up at Hero and confused: “Yes.. he said you.. what is wrong with that?”

Hero shakes his head: “Okay.. thanks Umma.. I am going to rest now.”

Mrs. Kim nodded and Hero turned to the stairs as he held onto the piece of paper tightly, Hero pov- Changmin.. Shim Changmin.. he is back? And he came for.. me? Am I dreaming? Shouldn’t he be looking for Jaejoong?

Hero throws himself on the bed as he looked at the number on the paper, slowly, he closed his eyes as his childhood memories slowly came back into his head.. tears rolled out from his eyes..

The next day..

Yunho walked into the school, but he didn’t see Hero anywhere. Yunho tried to search for Hero, but there was no sighs of him. Yunho looked down at the watch and there was still ten minutes before his class, so he sat down on a bench near a little lake inside the campus.

Yunho stared at the ducks swimming in the light blue colored water and then he looked up at the blue sky. Yunho: “Blue is truly a pretty color.. wonder why “Blue” picked this name.. but how come he said he hates this color?”

Just when Yunho was thinking, Junsu walked over and tapped Yunho’s shoulder: “Jung Yunho!”

Yunho turned over and saw Junsu: “Hey.. why are you calling me by my formal name now?”

Junsu: “Because I suddenly felt that I don’t know you anymore.”

“What do you mean?” Yunho asked with a smile on.

Junsu sighed: “Do you trust him that much? You even went blind because of him? Do you know you are hurting other people with your ignorant actions?”

“What do you mean? Who did I hurt?” Yunho asked in confusion.

Junsu shakes his head: “I can’t say anything, because I promised someone I won’t say anything. Well, anyways, here!”

Junsu handed Yunho an envelop, and Yunho took it in confusion when he opened it there were money in there. Yunho widened his eyes: “Why did you give me money?’

“It’s not from me!” Junsu said, “It’s from Jaejoong!”

“Jaejoong?” Yunho is more confused now.

“He owned you dinner money right? Here is the money that he wants to pay back to you.” Junsu said and his voice sounded very hurtful as he continued, “He worked all night for this money. You better appreciate it, but someone like probably won’t appreciate him.”

“He worked all night for this?” Yunho asked, “What did he do? Why didn’t he give this to me himself?”

Junsu stood up and said as he looked straight at the lake water: “He worked in a construction place over night by carrying heavy metals and brick. He hurt his arm by a sharp metal, and he is refusing Yoochun’s offer to go the hospital again because he doesn’t even have health insurance. Do you know he is an art major? He can barely lift up his right arm to continue to work on his project right now. If you really think you and Hero have the right to make someone innocent suffer like this, then you are really just a stranger to me from now on. Also, for your last questions, I do remember someone told Jaejoong to never show up in front of him again! So there goes your answer!”

Junsu walked away without turning back. Yunho looked down at the envelop and was shocked to hear everything that Junsu, pov- This can’t be, how come he doesn’t have health insurance? He hurt his arm also? He worked all night for this money? I thought.. I thought he is bad.. and he.. I..

Yunho jumped and started to run toward the art department just like when he would run to the gate to meet “Hero” in the old days. Yunho doesn’t even know what made him so worried, but he knows that he has to see Jaejoong right now and see if he is okay.

Yunho ran down every art room and peeked in everyone of them to check for Jaejoong’s figure, and finally his legs stopped him at the last room down the hallway. There he saw Jaejoong trying to get the statue off from the top of the storage place. Jae held out his left arm and trying to reach for his statue, while his right arm was hanged on the side and couldn’t make any usage.

Yunho gulps and slowly walked toward Jae and looking at the slim figure struggling in front of him. Yunho could feel the frustration coming from Jae when he couldn’t even hold onto the piece of art he made himself.

Jae tried hard to reach for it, but he couldn’t get a hold of it at all, pov- Aish! Why can’t I even get this done? This is due very soon, I have to get it finished. But I can’t even hold onto it now.. Aish..

Jae was so frustrated as tears rolled out from his eyes and dripped down on his shirt. But he didn’t care to wipe them away, just then, Jae saw another hand reached over on his statue. Jae turned over in surprise and widened his eyes. Yunho?

Yunho sighed and took the statue off as he held it in his hand, and he looked up at Jae: “Why don’t you go to the doctor?”

Jae held onto his right arm a little and looked down without saying anything..

Yunho: “I never asked you to pay me back the next day, why are you doing this?”

Jae bits onto his lips and still didn’t say anything, Yunho sighed then dragged onto Jae’s arm.

“AHH!” Jae screamed in pain.

Yunho quickly lets go and turned back as he saw blood dripped down from Jae’s right hand. Yunho held onto Jae’s hand and rolled up Jae’s sleeve while Jae bit onto his lips, and then Yunho gasped when he saw a deep cut on Jae’s right arm with blood still dripping out and already dyeing the sleeve of the shirt in red. Yunho looked up at Jae in shock and Jae bit onto his lips trying to overcome the pain.

“Are you trying to kill yourself? What are you thinking? Let’s go to the hospital now!” Yunho yelled and pulled onto Jae’s left hand as he dragged him out of the classroom. Jae looked at Yunho’s back and felt tears rolling around in his eyes.. at least.. he cares.. a little..
