Chapter 6



Taec went home after leaving the hospital with a mission. He knew that he wasn't exactly the most artistic person around, but he had a lot of sincerity when it came to expressing himself with art. He searched around for a few small notice boards about the size of an A4 paper each and went home to make something for Jay.

Though his room was majorly messy, the only place that was kept neat was the "Area of Memories" as he put it. He kept all the photos of himself and Jay there in a box, neatly and dated. He picked out the prettiest of them and started to paste them on the board. He wrote little letters below them about what they did that day. He spent the whole night on this and brought them back to the hospital the following morning. He was bleary-eyed but he did it for Jay and for Jay, nothing mattered.

"Hey Jay?"

"Yeah? Oh I remember your name. You said you were TaeYeon or something?"

"TaeC Yeon."

"Ahh sorry about missing out that C there... >..<"

"It's fine. I... I actually brought something for you. I made it. It's not very pretty but I think you can find bits of your past there."

He left the few notice boards on the tables and stepped back. Jay picked them up gingerly and said in a really touched voice "You made them for me? I.. I don't know what to say. They are really pretty... Is that me and you? You look tired. You must have stayed up to make them..."

"Ah. Ah it was fine. Uhm. I'm glad that you liked them... Well, uh, I'm off to school. I'll be back after school to visit."

With that he left for school and Jay read those carefully written notes. Unknowingly, tears fell from his eyes onto the bed. He was touched by this guy's actions. Sure, it wasn't perfect and some of the colours clashed really horribly, he could feel the sincerity. This guy is really touching his heart... Were they really lovers before the accident?

After school, Junsu arrived first cos he didn't have to stay for dance practice. He refused to learn from anyone but Jay so he made his way down to the hospital. He brought his guitar along with him and also the scored from the past and sat down on the edge of Jay's bed singing to him the melodies of the past which they wrote together. Jay of course didn't remember anything but he enjoyed himself immensely, listening to that perfect vocal.

"Only you~~"

"All night long, baby all night long..."

He sat there singing for three hours and Jay sat there listening. He fell asleep after some time and Junsu stopped playing. He placed his guitar on the floor beside him and pulled the chair closer. Lovingly, he stroked Jay's hair and tried to memorize all of his sleeping features. He looked so peaceful, so angelic sleeping there... He sat there for a long time until the nurse came and told him to get out and that Jay needed some undisturbed rest.

He left for home then leaving behind the scores. Not long after, Taec arrived with yet another thing that was definitely not given to patients -- dried mangos. He knew Jay loved them and brought a few of them along. Opening the door softly, he peeked in and saw Jay sleeping. Deciding not to disturb him, he asked for a piece of paper and a pen and wrote a short note for Jay telling him he missed him and that he came. He left the mangos next to the note and left too.

When Jay woke up, he saw those presents on his table and his heart clenched again. He knew they were chasing him but he didn't  know who to choose. He was so confused. He liked both. Each gave him a different vibe, a different feeling. He saw those photos and knew he was with Taec in the past, he heard those songs and was really touched. He saw the mangos and  seemed to remember something...
