Something Deep Inside (Chapter 3)
Something Deep Inside - Chapter 3
Weekend for YunHo is helping out at the university's cafeteria right after football practice. Not like he needed the money, YunHo's parents own a commercial enterprise in Beverly Hills and that speaks for itself; YunHo just want to spend some time with his friends and what better place than the local cafeteria. The cafe is by far the best place to hang out during weekends. It's located right in the middle of everything, the football field, basketball field, tennis court, baseball field and anywhere near club meetings. The cafe isn't that bad either, there's pool tables, foosball machine, music box, a huge slide projector, and a cybercafe, just a door away.
Just then, KiBum and JaeJoong enter the cafe, along with their rackets in hand, a tennis and badminton respectively. They just got off their club meetings and wanted to have a light breakfast which KiBum recommended to bring him here where all the meals are extremely exquisite.
They took a seat at a table, JaeJoong was looking around the interior design, it's good and if he wasn't told earlier about the cafe, he would easily mistaken this as another Starbucks.
"Can I take your -" YunHo recognizes JaeJoong "- oh, it's you"
"You're not going to scald me, are you?" JaeJoong pretends to duck as he recalled the warning YunHo gave him yesterday.
"Haha...funny" YunHo just remember the warning he gave, it wasn't intentional. YooChun said it was his fault to have knocked him down when he was clearly standing there, right in front of him. But he's not going to admit that.
"We'll have two cappuccinos" KiBum orders his favourite, knowing JaeJoong will not be able to decide which one yet.
"Two cinos" YunHo nodded. "Anything else?"
"I suppose an apology is out of the question?" JaeJoong posed a mocking smile.
"That's extra" YunHo faked a smile. "I’ll be back with your order.
"Why didn't you warn me of this?" JaeJoong leaned forward to KiBum, whispering to the latter with whom he had confide to about his encounter with the football star yesterday.
"Call it..a learning experience" KiBum laughed, eyes were around the place, JaeJoong noticed.
"Who are you looking for?"
"No one in particular"
"The boy living right across?" JaeJoong smirked with brows wriggled.
KiBum looked down in embarrassment. The events where he was caught peeking out the window from his bathroom last night flashes in his mind. JaeJoong was on his way to his room from JunSus' when he saw a figure standing on the toilet rim, looking up the window, snickering. He thought maybe KiBum saw something so he quietly stood next to him and saw a shirtless boy standing in front of the mirror. A laugh was heard and that's when KiBum noticed someone is standing next to him as he fell to the floor, butt first.
"Yeah" KiBum nodded. No need to deny, it's so obvious.
"How long did you like him?" JaeJoong asked, almost whispering to not let anyone hear.
"Since he got here" KiBum thought earnestly "Two semesters"
"He knows?"
"Nope" KiBum shakes his head. "I don't think so"
"Plan on telling him?"
"I think that day will never come" KiBum sighed, leaning against the backrest.
"Here we go. Two cinos" YunHo serves the drinks, walks away to take an order.
"Don't you wanna buy something for JunSu?" KiBum asked, leanings towards the table.
"That boy can live literally without any food, as long as he stays in his room" JaeJoong shook his head.
"May I ask -"
"JunSu's completely anti-social" JaeJoong interrupted, knew exactly what is he going to ask.
"Why?"
"Unsolved mystery. He used to be really cheerful when he started mid-school, then something happened which leads him to now"
"What happened?" KiBum asked, curious, sipping the warm coffee as he listens.
"Bullied. He was stripped and tied to a pole. They left him there to laugh at"
"Serious!" KiBum was shocked. He thought this can only happen in manga.
"He's getting better now but he still needs someone to watch over him, you know?" JaeJoong nodded.
"Is there anyway I could help?" KiBum felt bad.
"Don't hurt him, it may trigger something!" JaeJoong nodded, finishing his coffee "And don't tell him I told you"
"No problem" KiBum did a 'cross-my-heart' with his hand.
"I should get going" JaeJoong looks at his watch, quickly gets up "Damn, I really should"
"What's the rush?" KiBum slung his bag, holding his racket.
"Promised JunSu to get to the clothing store. We didn't know it will be this cold here" JaeJoong pushes the door open as both boys walk out of the cafe. "And then, off to the bank our dad wants us to meet"
As YunHo comes by to clear up, he notices a cell phone, he picks it up, looks at the door.
=====
JaeJoong stopped as he fumbles in his pocket.
"What?" KiBum offers to hold the racket as JaeJoong continues to search...
"My phone" JaeJoong turns back at the cafe. "Hang on"
JaeJoong turns about to enter the cafe. YunHo pushes the door.
THUD!

ChangMin stood beside a guilty cousin in the hospital room. He was on his way to the cafe when the accident happened. He had to use his car to transport them to the hospital to get treatment when JaeJoong didn't respond to any 'waking-up' method. KiBum stood next to JaeJoong who was laying in bed with a bandage wrapped around his head, both cheeks were red because of the constant slap YunHo gave to wake him up.
"Look, I said I'm sorry. What else can I say?" YunHo has been apologizing for the umpteenth time.
"Twice you've knocked me down" JaeJoong showing two fingers, another hand is holding a mirror, looking at his face "Is this some kind of revenge?"
"No. It was unintentional. I'll take back the warning" YunHo cursed at his luck.
"How can you take back a warning when you already got me this far?" JaeJoong's about to rise up from the bed.
"JaeJoong-hyung, you should rest" KiBum hushed him from getting uptight.
"Well, Mister Kim, you’re a lucky man. Minor concussion. We’ll keep you overnight for observation" The doctor checks the bandage "Nasty fall. Some bruising but you should be okay in a few hours once the sedative takes affect"
"Sedative?" JaeJoong was already light-headed.
"He'll be out soon" The doctor wrote something before leaving the room.
"Good. I like loons" JaeJoong slowly closes his eyes.
"Sooner than that" KiBum chuckles, tucks him then leaving the room with YunHo and ChangMin.
"I'm really sorry, KiBum but I assure you it's not intentional" YunHo apologized again when they are already outside.
"No need to apologize to me. The person you should do that, is him OR his brother" KiBum motioned him to relax, sending a smile to ChangMin which the latter blushed, looking away.
"His brother?"
"Now, talking about him. Where is he?" KiBum takes a look at his watch.
+=+=+=+=+=
JunSu took a final turn, turning off the engine and got off his vehicle. He was waiting for his brother to return when he received a call from KiBum about his brother got into an accident. He took his time coming here when KiBum assured him that JaeJoong is alright and wanted him to cancel the meeting with the accountant they supposed to meet.
YooChun parked his car next to a white van. He had no idea why he is here either. He woke up a few minutes ago with a vex he couldn't quite get. He was asleep for six hours, a good sleep but he didn't know why he was getting all mess up over something he wasn't able to figure it out. He has a sudden urge to grab his car keys and drive all the way here, to the hospital.
JunSu locked his car, looks at the white building when he was strucked with a bizarre feeling. He really needed to know what it was. He turned around, he saw nothing. He walked away from his car to see a shadow coming out from the other side of another vehicle parked next to the van.
YooChun took a few steps to the back of his car. He could see a shadow standing next to a car but he couldn't quite see who it is as the van was blocking his view. He didn't know what is going on when his mind suddenly flashes the face of the boy he met at the supermarket, trying to peek as he steps out.
JunSu peeks out from the sides of the van. When he realized who it was, he came out of his 'hiding' place and was bewildered.
They were looking at each other without any words exchanged. They were both very confuse. None could understand why but their little beating hearts were doing rounds of flips. They were blushing unknowingly.
Neither want to look away or move. Neither could understand about this feeling they're having. Joy. Pure Joy....
