She loves Jong Hyun's best friend, Minho now
The silence was broken when a screeching sound was heard. The blade of the knife on Su Yeon’s hand was dragged against the metal pieces in the empty room. Her eyes hinted her insanity and hatred that made her crazy. Looking at the person that was tied to a wooden chair in front of her, she smirked a little, as she said to herself
“Kim Jonghyun, everything that happen is nothing compared to what you did to me.”
Su Yeon POV
Knowing Kim Jonghyun seemed to be something that happened yesterday. I remember the day when I walked down the stairs after the school bell rang, hearing the disturbing murmurs around me. I hated the fact that I was mentally ill. As the murmurs get louder and louder, I cupped my hands on my ears, feeling out of breath. Then it came. Someone pushed me hard on my back, as I lose my footing and started rolling down the stairs. I hit my head on the metal railing and a deep gash appeared on my forehead. The murmurs were getting louder and louder as everyone around started pointing their fingers at me, laughing at the state I’ve become.
Just then, I heard someone’s hurried footsteps down the stairs. I was terrified. I started backing away as far as I could even though it was just a few centimeters away. The person lifted my head up and let me rest my head on his shoulders as he attended to my wound with his handkerchief. I squinted my eyes a little, only to see him~ Kim Jong Hyun.
He smiled at me as he carried me on his back. I never knew this day would come. After that, he was always there for me. It seemed to be the happiest days of my life.
Jong Hyun POV
My head hurts. Hearing the disturbing screeching sound coming from the back, I forced myself to open my eyes, and looked around the place I am in. Where am I? Both of my hands are tied to the back of the chair and my wrists start to hurt whenever I tried to break free. My legs were tied together with a thick rope. Just then, I heard a familiar voice calling me from the back.
“Jong hyun sunbae.”
Before I can turn my head any further, the person’s face stopped just in front of me, and the blade of a knife was just a few inches away from my cheek. It was Su Yeon. She looked at me with those crazy eyes, I’ve never seen her like this before, even before the time when I helped her at the staircase.
“Su Yeon…what are you doing?”
Before I would say anything further, she began to sob, and just like before, she placed her palms on her ears and started screaming in fear. She squatted down on the floor in front of me, as she buried her hand in between her legs. Her conditions seemed to be worsened after I left her.
“Let’s break up, Su Yeon. It would be better for us.” I started at her, as the smile on her face disappeared. She touched the bruise on her mouth, and grabbed my arm with her hands.
“No...no! Jong hyun Sunbae! What have I done wrong?” She sunk her fingernails into my flesh, although it hurts, I did not try to release myself from her grip.
“No, Su Yeon. It’s not you…it’s just…it’s just because I could not help you. I only hurt you.”
“You are leaving me because I’m crazy!” She shouted at me, and started to cry. How I wish I could tell her that I love her too, I really do. But all I could remember was that I hit her, not once or twice, but umpteen times. I told her to shut up and said the meanest things to her. I am not the ideal person to love her and take care of her.
“Minho will take care of you, Su Yeon, you know he would.”
“You don’t love me anymore. You are throwing me away.” I said nothing, but only to place my hands on her cheeks to wipe her tears away and I put my lips on her forehead. Backing away after a few seconds, I turned around swiftly and walked out of the room briskly. Forgive me, Su Yeon.
3rd person’s POV
As Su Yeon’s sobbing began to subside, she grabs the knife that she dropped on the floor and swiftly put it just a few centimeters away from Jonghyun’s throat. Jonghyun backed away as far as he could, while looking into Su Yeon’s eyes.
“Su Yeon, why are you doing this?”
“You never have the right to ask me, Kim Jong Hyun! You hit me just like an idiot, you told me that you love me, but you hit me.” Su Yeon screamed at him, as she put the knife closer to his throat.
“I left you a year ago because I never want to hurt you ever again!”
“You left me because I’m crazy! Not because you did not want to hurt me.”
“I left you so that Minho could take care of you. Minho is capable of taking care of you and loving you. He would never hurt you.” Hearing Minho’s name, Su Yeon start to lower down the knife, and looked at the bracelet on her wrist. It was a gift from Minho on her 20th birthday.
Minho was the only reason that she wanted to live for and she realized that she loves him more than Jong Hyun.
Taking advantage of Su Yeon’s emotions, Jong Hyun talked to her as calmly as possible.
“Su Yeon, listen to me. Release me and look for Minho. He will help you; he will protect you from everyone including me.”
Su Yeon looked at him with hatred again, as she grabbed Jong Hyun’s collar threateningly. “Have you ever released me in the past? Have you ever stopped when I pleaded for you to stop hitting me?”
Before Jong Hyun could reply, Su Yeon stood up and grabbed a chair wooden chair from the side. Filled with hatred, she swung the wooden chair towards Jong Hyun. The legs of the chair gave way and wooden splints start to drop on the floor. Jong Hyun fell to the side with the chair he is tied to, with deep gashes all over his body. His blood flowed from his wounds to the floor, and the strong metallic smell of his blood filled Su Yeon’s nose.
It agitates her even more. Su Yeon grabs the knife in her hands and plunged it towards Jong Hyun’s chest. But just a few inches away from hitting him, Su Yeon stopped abruptly. The murmurs are back again, they filled her ears and her mind like virus. She dropped the knife from her hand on the floor and started to scream in agony.
Minho POV
I dashed out of my house once I received the location of where Su Yeon is with the detector on my phone. It has been a year since I feel panicky about her safety. Her condition was improving until recently, when I accidentally mentioned about Jong Hyun, a name that we have not talked about for a long time. I am still in contact with Jong Hyun Hyung, we are still best friends and I know he did not expect things to turn out like how it is presently.
Morning
Waking up by nuisance alarm clock ringing, I opened my eyes stretched my arms. Letting out a big yawn, I sat on the bed as I look to my side. On the other side of the “boundary line” that Su Yeon set with a line of cushions, Su Yeon started rubbing her eyes like a little girl, as she woke up and looked at me. Even though she did not wear any make up, she looks gorgeous. Su Yeon blushed after I kissed her on her cheek and forehead.
“Good morning.” Su Yeon whispered to me, as she removed the line of cushions that lay between us. I rest my head comfortably on her thighs, as she caresses my hair. She smiled at me sweetly, while I played with the rim of her oversize T-shirt. Suddenly, her smile vanishes and she looked at me, as if she was going to leave me for good.
“Minho oppa… what if…what if I left you? Would you dislike me? Would you hit me like…”
“Like Jong Hyun Hyung?” I felt her shudder. I lift my head up and hugged her in my arms.
“I’m sorry Su Yeon, I don’t mean to mention…it’s over now. And you know he did not mean it.” She shifted away from my arms but held my hands in her palms.
“Minho oppa, you didn’t answer my question. What if I left you?”
“I will wait for you, till you come back to me.”
Su Yeon caresses my hair once again, as she mouthed a thank you. I place my lips on her cheek, just a few centimeters away from hers. Just as I was about to reach her lips, she backed away playfully, and got off the bed.
I got on my bike and rode it to the location she is in as fast as the bike could take me. Thinking of the question she asked me in the morning, I realize that I did not told her truthfully. If she left me, I would be a soulless man. She means everything to me.
Su Yeon POV
I lay on the floor, while I screamed in agony. The voices are tearing my apart, and it hurts so much. All that I could think about now was Choi Minho. I feel guilt and fear. Guilty because I love Minho too much, and I fear that I would hurt him for the things I do.
Looking at Kim Jong Hyun, I was sure Choi Minho would hate me because I hurt his hyung. Not knowing how to face Minho sunbae, I reached for the knife with the tip of my fingers. Grabbing on to the handle, I angled the blade on my wrist as I closed my eyes. Taking a deep breath, I pressed the blade hard on my wrist, as I feel the piercing pain. Feeling the blood flowing out from the wound, it felt as if the sin that was flowing within me was released.
I turn my head to look at Jong Hyun, who was lying subconsciously beside me.
“Mi…Mianhae.” I whispered softly as I looked towards the door. My vision became blurry but I would sense the existence of someone else outside the door. As my vision became even more blur and my body gets colder, I saw Minho Sunbae running towards us.
“Su Yeon!” He called out my name, but it seemed so far away. I blacked out.
Minho POV
Seeing Su Yeon and Jong Hyun lying on the floor unconscious felt like the end of the world to me. As I saw Su Yeon closing her eyes, I ran towards her and knelt beside her. Tearing a piece of fabric from my shirt, I tied it tightly before her wound to stop it from bleeding even more. Lifting her head up into my arms, I touched her cold cheeks with my hand. I pressed my lips on hers, while I childishly hope that she would wake up after doing that.
I let her rest on my thighs as I fished out my handphone and phoned the ambulance. I dropped my phone on the floor, looking at the blood that stained my hands. I shook Jong Hyun hyung hard, as I felt helpless and afraid.
“Hyung…Please wake up, please.”
For the first time, I started to tear out of fear. I cannot afford to lose either of them… they mean too much to me.
Jong Hyun’s POV
“Jong Hyun Hyung! Hyung!” Someone called me, as he shook arm like a young boy. I opened my eyes and felt a stinging pain on my head. I look around, seeing Minho sitting beside me. When I tried to remember what happen before I lose consciousness, the only thing I recalled was Su Yeon lying beside me. She told me she was sorry.
I look at Minho as I reached out my hand for him. Minho grabbed my hand, and sat beside me.
“Su Yeon…how is Su Yeon?” I asked weakly
“She is okay, Hyung. Do not worry.”
“I did not expect things to be like this.”
“I know, Hyung. No one does.”
Just then, someone suddenly dashed into the room panicky. The person turned out to be Taemin. Minho looked up at Taemin, sensing that something bad has happened.
“Minho hyung! Su Yeon is on the rooftop!”
Minho let go of my hand immediately as he ran out of the room towards the staircase.
No One’s POV
Minho’s footsteps struck the stairs quickly, as he ran up the stairs as fast as he could. Opening the door to the rooftop, he saw Onew and Key standing side to side, as Su Yeon was standing at the edge of the building.
“Su Yeon, get down.” Key shouted at her, but she ignore him and spread out her arms to feel the wind.
Sprinting towards Su Yeon’s direction, Minho suddenly stopped when Su Yeon turned around and looked at him.
“Minho…”
“Su Yeon… please don’t do this. Please get down.”
“Minho…I shouldn’t be alive. I hurt Jong Hyun Sunbae… I don’t want to hurt you too.”Minho started to tear again. Su Yeon looked at Minho’s watery eyes, as she said to him
“You should not cry for me, Minho. I am not worth it.”
“You are everything to me Su Yeon. Remember that morning when you asked me what would I do if you left me?”
After what Minho said, Su Yeon stared at him, waiting for his answer.
“Lee Su Yeon, if you leave me, I would lose the reason the live.”
“You still have your Hyungs and dongsaengs.”
“Holding you to sleep in my arms every night is more realistic than my own heartbeat. Please, Su Yeon. Please…I love you.”
Minho walked up slowly, but grabbed her waist as fast as he could. He carried Su Yeon off the edge of the rooftop, and hugged her tightly in his arms. Su Yeon hugged him back, as she burst out into tears. Wiping the tears away from her face, Minho carried her in his arms, while Su Yeon wrapped hers loosely around his neck.
Setting her back into bed in the room, Minho smiled, as he sat beside her. Su Yeon held his hands near her chest, as she told him
“Please tell Jong Hyun Hyung that I am sorry for everything I’ve done. And…I have never regretted loving him.”
Minho nodded as he moved his head closer to Su Yeon’s. Kissing Su Yeon on her lips again, but she did not back away this time. After a few seconds, Su Yeon shifted her lips to Minho’s ears, as she whispered in his ears
“But…Saranghae, Choi Minho. You are the only reason I live for as well.”
P.S. I know I am pretty mean to write Jong Hyun Oppa as a bad guy in my first attempt.
If you guys are not sure what is going on, here it is:
Lee So Yeon is suffering from mental disorder, and her first love is Jong Hyun
Jong Hyun hit her during their relationship
After breaking up for 2 years or so, Lee So Yeon and Minho are deeply in love with each other.
