(Prologue and Chapter 1)
It was almost six in the morning; I was out on the terrace waiting for sunrise. I couldn’t get much sleep. I recalled the kiss Yoochun-senpai gave me after all the Happy New Year greeting. It wasn’t just a simple friendly kiss. I felt something there. It was like he was telling me I was more than just a friend to him and that he was savouring that kiss because he knew he would never get another chance. Sigh.
“Such deep thoughts so early in the morning.” I turned to find Changmin looking at me from the doorway.
“I guess they are pretty deep.” I answered. “Couldn’t sleep?”
“Yeah.” He said as he slowly made his way toward me. He stopped immediately in front of me. I felt my heart beat faster. Suddenly I couldn’t seem to face him, so I turned around again and faced where the sun would soon rise, resting my arms on the railings.
“I’m waiting for the sunrise.” I told him, although I don’t know why. I just felt I had to say something because I couldn’t stand the silence anymore. I heard him move and then I felt his arms encircle my body. I stiffened. Darn it. What is he doing? My emotions are already in chaos from his nearness and he’s only adding to my confusion by hugging me.
“Relax.” He told me. Is he mad? How can I relax when I can feel the heat radiating from him to me? “Just let me hold you Al. Please. I miss you.” He missed me? I was here for two weeks. What did he mean? I could almost sense his desperation for me to relax in the way he held me. So I did, and decided it felt nice to be held that way.
“Thanks Al.” He said when he felt me relax. He rested his chin on my left shoulder and together we watched the sunrise.
We stayed like that for a few about 20 minutes, and then he slowly lifted his chin and turned me around to face him. We stared at each other before he lowered his head to mine. Before our lips could touch, I heard a door open and then…
“Yawn. Darn it. I still can’t sleep. I might as well cook something for breakfast.” I heard Min curse softly at the interruption. It was Jaejoong-senpai. I quickly stepped away from Changmin’s arms before he could see us in that position. I smiled at Min’s obvious chagrin and then went to sit at one of the chairs.
January 4, 2009, 9:00 pm, outside Aline’s dormitory…
“Bye Al. Hope you can join us for dinner next week.” Jaejoong-senpai called from the car.
“I’ll try to be there senpai. I promise.” I called back.
“Come on Lin-chan. Your bags are heavy you know.” Yoochun-senpai called.
“Hai, Hai.”
Once I was inside my room, I began to unpack my things and then I made my bed. I little while later, Chie arrived, and then Utami and Misaki. We had dinner together at a popular grill in the city, then went back the dorm and had a good night’s rest for class the next day.
Friday, after first period…
“Are you okay Al?” Changmin asked me.
“Uh, yeah. I’m fine.”
“You don’t look okay. Are you ill?” He touched my forehead after asking. I took hold of his hand and pulled it away from me. I shook my head in answer to his question.
“I just feel down these days.”
“Why?”
“I’m not quite sure of the reason. I just feel depressed. I have to go now Min.” I said as I stood. I didn’t wait for him say anything. I didn’t give him the chance to say out loud the question or questions I knew he wanted to ask. I just need to be alone now. I think I am in dire need of a counsellor or a psychologist, someone who can tell me what’s wrong with me.
I took out my phone and dialled Yoochun-senpai’s number. After about 4-5 rings, he picked up.
“Moshi-Moshi. Lin-chan, did something happen?”
“Why do you ask senpai?”
“Because you rarely call me, and when you do it’s usually when you’re extremely happy or sad. So, what happened?”
“Sigh. I’m feeling depressed senpai. I feel like jumping of a building.”
“Sigh. Where are you now? Are you in school?”
“You don’t have to come to me senpai. I just wanted to tell somebody I how felt.”
“Yes, I do. Now tell me where you are.”
“Iie. Sumanai senpai. Sayonara.” I hung up before he could say anything else. I switched my phone to silent mode and headed for the library to wait for my next class to start.
At the cafeteria…
=Ringgg=
“Hello. Uh, Yoochun-hyung.”
“Where is she?”
“Who?”
“Aline…where is she? Is she in school? Is she okay? Are you together?”
“Whoa. Whoa. Hyung, I can’t catch up with all the questions you’re asking, slow down.” Why was he so worried?
“I don’t have time to slow down. So did she attend class?”
“Yup! She was there.”
“But you don’t know where she is right now, do you?”
“Aniyo. She left quickly before I could invite her for brunch, and it looked like she wanted to be alone. Didn’t you call her?”
“She won’t answer. Aish! Where is she?!” Yoochun-hyung sounded kind of desperate and really angry.
“Well, aside from the cafeteria hyung, she either went back to the dorm or is in the library.”
“Can you check if she’s there, then call me if she is?”
“Okay hyung.”
“Thanks Min. Bye now.”
“Bye.” I wonder what’s wrong. I’ve never heard Yoochun-hyung sound that alarmed before. I gulped down the remainder of my food and then headed for the library.
At the library…
I saw Changmin the moment he entered the library, since I was sitting on a table where I could clearly see the door. I noticed him looking for someone and then when he spotted me, he took out his phone and has been talking to someone for approximately 10 minutes now. I was watching him from the corner of my eye and I had a feeling that it was Yoochun-senpai he was talking to since he kept glancing my way, and also because Yoochun-senpai almost filled my call register with 50 missed calls. When he finished the conversation, he walked toward me and then sat down on my table. The moment he cleared his throat to get my attention, was the time I took my attention away from the book I was reading.
“Yes?” He looked almost stunned at how cold I said it. Well, I was in my I-get-irritated-easily mood.
“Um, you’re feeling okay right?”
“What makes you think I feel otherwise?”
“Well, for one thing Yoochun-senpai sounded quite alarmed when he called me, and you don’t answer your phone.” He pointed out.
“Well don’t I have the choice if I want to answer a call or not?” (Ding Ding Ding) The librarian was giving us a warning. Apparently our voices were getting louder.
“Why don’t we continue this outside?” He asked.
“Why don’t you just leave me alone?” I ignored him and went back to reading my book. I heard him stand up. I thought he had gone away, when suddenly someone grabbed hold of my arm and bag and ceremoniously escorted me out of the library. The chair I was sitting in made such a loud noise that everyone’s attention was on us. I wanted to fight his hold, but the thought that a lot of people were watching us and that we could be kicked out of the library for good was what made me just follow him in silent acquiescence.
Once outside, I tried to tug my hand free but he just tightened his hold and continued dragging me to who knows where. I finally stopped trying to oppose his strength since he’s obviously stronger than me and instead, I tried to keep up with him so we won’t attract much attention. I didn’t know where he was going since I was busy watching my feet so I wouldn’t trip. By the time I looked up, I noticed there weren’t many people in this part of the campus. We were entering a garden, one of the most beautiful I’ve seen. I didn’t know there was a place like this here. He stopped when we were in front of a bench, under a mango tree, where he sat down and pulled me to sit down with him.
“What’s the big idea taking me here?”
“Well for one thing, we were getting noisy in the library and it’s no place to have the discussion we’re going to have now; and second, I don’t think you like attracting people’s attention any more than I do.”
“You could have just left me alone.”
“Well I won’t, not until we’ve talked about this.”
“There’s nothing to talk about.” I stood up. “I have to go now, if you remember I have a class in fifteen minutes and so do you.”
“Oh no you don’t.” He said as he grasped my hand and pulled me back down to sit. “You and I are not going anywhere right now. So if you want to finish this quickly, cooperate with me.”
“I could scream you know if you don’t let me go this instant.”
“Try.” He said, clearly challenging me to do so.
“Aaah-“ My scream was cut short when he suddenly covered my mouth with his. This is the third time he kissed me, and it was different from the other two. This one was punishing in a way, though I still felt as if he was devouring me. I can feel his controlled anger from his kiss, although I’m not sure if it was anger at the way I answered him, that I didn’t answer his and Yoochun-senpai’s calls, or because I made Yoochun-senpai worry so much. I knew he knew a way to stop me from screaming or he wouldn’t have thrown out that challenge but this wasn’t what I expected. I kept still knowing it would be useless to fight, I refused to respond although almost every fiber of my being was screaming at me to do so. When he finally broke the kiss, I slapped him - hard.
He looked stunned. His left cheek was turning red. I pushed him away and wiped my lips with the back of my hand. He just stared at me and kept nursing his hurt cheek.
“Don’t you ever do that again!”
“And what if I do?”
“You’ll hurt in a more interesting and tender place than your cheek.”
“And that is?”
“Oh, I think you know exactly what I mean.”
