Five
Passing By"Who are you tho?"
We were brought back to our senses as Jaewon spoke. I felt my friends' eyes on me.
"Jung Jaewon. What the hell?! Its me, Bobby Kim. Bobby!" Bobby screamed so hard not knowing anything. I wanted to stop him and drag him somewhere and tell him everything but I couldn't move.
I looke at Jaewon and he still has the confused look on his face.
"Waaaah, seriously I was just out for 2 years and you already forgotten about me. It hurts bro. It hurts."
I did not move a single step as the conversation went on. I'm too scared. Why does it have to happen this time? Am I being punished right now? Were my sufferings still not enough for my sin? Should I just die?
"Sorry. I was on an accident two years ago. I apologize." Jaewon bowed and smiled back at Bobby.
That's it.
I quickly ran out of the room and let my feet take me wherever I need to. My vision's blurry but I can't stop running. I need to be alone right now. I need to release it all alone.
My sin started to hunt me down again. They were just nightmares for the past two years but it's happening right now when I'm fully awake and it's scary. I couldn't get away.
I wanted to just die and end it all but it's wrong. I should have just died then. Then everything shouldn't have been like this.
After a long run, I decided to stop. I wiped my tears away and I saw that I'm not inside the university anymore.
I walked down to a bus stop and sat on the vacant bench. I felt so lost. Why do things have to come back where it all ended? I wanted to forget and move on but fate really wanted to make me suffer. Maybe because I deserve it in the first place.
Two Years Ago
"Hayi, sorry I wasn't there. I'm so sorry. Are you ok? I'm so sorry. I should have been by your side." Jaewon rushed to me as soon as he saw me at the hospital corridor.
I couldn't smile at him. My heart hurts too much right now. I couldn't do it. How can I hurt the most precious guy in my life? How can I look at him hurting because of me? No. I can't. I can't.
He hugged me so tight and I can hear his soft cries. He's crying. He's already crying. It hurts too much.
I was about to hug him back but someone interrupted us.
"Son! You're back! How's Tokyo?" I heard Doctor Jung exclaimed at Jaewon's back.
I slowly looked at her, scared. She looked at me and raised her brow then nodded.
Jaewon simply wiped his tears and turned to his
