YOU AND ME FOREVER (FOREVER YOUNG) [Chapter Two]
It took me a lot of self-control not to cry after I let that boy into my apartment. After a painful brief introduction, I showed him this so called Dongwoon into his room. I watched him unpack, as I stood at the door of the room.
He had nothing much to unpack. When he opened his suitcase, there was only three set of proper clothes,One being a set of the school uniform. I rolled my eyes. Does he know that he's NOT on a holiday, that he was staying with me? He'd definitely need more clothes than that.
" Do you know that you're like staying here until the year is over? Why didn't you bring over all your clothes?" I asked
er these are all of my clothes..." he said, not looking up at me.
Was this boy serious?
" dude are you kidding me?! don't you go shopping ? or did you totally burn down your last school, that they disowned you and refuse to give you money to buy clothes," I said, amused at my own joke.
"They died when I was 3, " He said, looking up, and I saw pain and loneliness reflected in his eyes. Our eyes met for a brief moment, before he sighed and turned away.
I started to feel guilty for what I said. I slowly went back to my room, to avoid the awkward silence. For once, me, the almighty key feels guilty for what I said. I never ever regretted saying anything to anyone, until this boy comes along.
I sat on my bed for hours contemplating on what to do next. Just then, something on my table caught my attention. I grinned to myself, deciding that that was the best thing to do, as I ran into Dongwoon's room and pulled the shocked boy out of his room, and eventually the house with me .

"I cannot afford this ,Kibum-sshi..." he said weakly.
Rolling my eyes,
"FOR THE LAST TIME JUST CALL ME KEY , YOU NOOB. And so ? I have all the money in the world . I'm sure my dad wouldn't mind me spending some on you, since he seem to adore you so much from the way he talks about you...Either take this, or I'll make you sleep in the balcony today . I heard that there are rats..." I said, slightly annoyed by how nice this kid was. If some guy offered to buy things for me, I'd never refuse.
There was a hint of confusion on his face, until he realised what I was trying to do.
"Thank you kib.. Key! i don't know how to ever repay your kindness! i'll pay you back for every single clothes that you bought me today..." he exclaimed, bowing to me repeatedly.
I frowned. It wasn't as if all these stuffs from Topshop and Bread&Butter were that expensive anyway. It really wasn't. The cost of everything, only amounted to three days of my daily allowance.
We paid for the last piece of clothing, and then we were on our way home.
~~
The next day, I woke up to the smell of bacon and egg. I followed the trail to the kitchen and to my surprise, I see Dongwoon setting down a plate breakfast on the table. He was already dressed smartly in his uniform.
"ahh good morning~ I thought that I could at least show my gratitude to you by making you breakfast.." He said shyly.
I smiled and immediately dug into my breakfast. After a while, I looked up at Dongwoon and I saw him still standing at that same spot.
" Why aren't you eating too..?"
"I..er..ate already" he said, not meeting my eyes.
"Liar!Eat this. NOW" i forced him
He just shook his head and said,
"I know you mean well. But I'm not used to these kind of luxurious food... At the orphanage, we only had two pieces of white bread for breakfast, and to me, that's enough,"
He walked past me and gave me a smile, before heading to his room.
I frowned. Bacon and egg is definitely NOT a luxury. As soon as i managed to sort out my thoughts, i headed to the bathroom, wanting to get ready for school.
Oh god, school~
How was this boy going to survive in my school, where everything is about money or popularity...
