Seventeen

Young Love, High School Love (Discontinued)

Next morning, JR left before Yuna's father arrived. Yuna discharged from hospital and went back home with her father.

[ Inside the Car ]

"I’m happy that you're feeling better. From now on you have to be careful. Take medicine on time and eat something healthy a lot! Also, I'll take you to get check up every Saturday." -Mr. Song-

"Why do I need a check-up every week, Dad? Do I have any serious disease?" Yuna surprisingly asked.

"No, dear but I wanna make sure your health is fine. Don't worry! I'll take care of you by my life. I love you, my dear daughter! I'll repay everything I've been lack to you." -Mr. Song-

"I love you too, Dad. Thank you!" Yuna hugged her father.

"By the way, from now on you'll have personal driver to take and pick up you from school. I don't allow you to go out alone anymore. If you have any party or appointment with friends, just tell me in advance. I'll consider if I should allow you to go or not." -Mr. Song-

"Dad, I'm totally fine. I don't need a driver." Yuna quickly refused.

"I've decided. I see you often come home so late. You should come early by own car not train. Train is so messy. Don't oppose me! I do it for your own safety." -Mr. Song-

Yuna couldn't refuse but she felt very sad.

"One more thing, I've met your boyfriend and I don't like him. He doesn't suit you at all. Stop dating with him!" Mr. Song started showing his disappointed reaction.

"No Dad! He may look scary and gang but he's not all bad." -Yuna-

"Not all bad means he's bad. You should find someone who is all good. Break up with him!" -Mr. Song-

"Dad, I can't do that. I'm sure I can change him and he promised to change and listen to me from now on too. Please give us chance!" Yuna cried begging.

"How could you fall in love with that gangster this much? Look at yourself, you're crying because of him. I'm not opposing you having a relationship but find someone who is better than this. He didn't even know how to impress me at the first meet. He was so impolite and all his friends can't be acceptable too except the one with blonde." -Mr. Song-

"He's very nice to me, Dad. Please don't break us! I promise I'll change. Please give me a chance!" -Yuna-

"Yuna, you're very young. Young love may not be last forever. You don't have to put it this serious. High schoolers fall in love and break up after they graduate. You'll meet many better men in the future." -Mr. Song-

"I don't know what happens in the future but for now I love him and I want to change him. Please don't break us, Dad! I beg you." Yuna cried louder to beg her dad.

"Alright, I'll give him a chance but if he makes any mistake or problem, you have to break up with him immediately. I won't give him a second chance. Stop crying, my dear!" -Mr. Song-

"Yes, Dad! Thank you!" -Yuna-

"However, you shouldn't go out a lot at this moment. You still need to take more rest." -Mr. Song-

"Yes Dad!" -Yuna-

-----

Yuna took rest from school a week. She kept contacting her friends and her boyfriend by phone.

-----

[ At School ]

JR, Aron, Ren and Baekho were at rooftop, talking about something.

"Did you get any news from those guys who bullied Yuna's class monitor?" -JR-

"I have asked all of people who are doubtful but it looks like none of them did it. They all look innocent." -Ren-

"How about you, Baekho? After stalking Yuri and Minhyun for these few days, is there anything noticeable?" JR turned to ask Baekho.

"Nothing is noticeable but Yuri likes going to meet Minhyun in the musical classroom so much. However, I see Minhyun ignores her sometimes. Look like they don't really have good relationship like when they meet in front of us." -Baekho-

"I'm afraid Yuri is dragging Minhyun to do something bad. Help me keep eyes on them!" -JR-

"Don't worry! I still contact with Minhyun a lot. I'm trying my best to drag him back to our group. Yuri has no good purpose on anybody. I'm worried about Minhyun so much." -Aron-

"If she dares to do something to Minhyun, I'm gonna teach her some lessons." -Ren-

"Oh by the way, this Sunday is your birthday. Should we celebrate it together?" -Baekho-

"Yes let's go out and have party together!" -Ren-

"I want to take rest this Sunday. I've been so tired, honestly." -JR-

"Your girlfriend isn't gonna come out until next week. You can't celebrate it with her too. Go with us! We'll make you relaxed! Birthday party at game center, isn't it nice?" -Baekho-

"What? Who would do birthday party at game center? But I really want to rest. Maybe I'll stay at home for full day. Birthday has no meaning for me after my dad passed away. He was always the one who celebrated it with me on my birthday." JR remembered the past and started feeling emotional.

"He has gone to a better place now. You've to move on. Cheer up! Stay at home and relax if you don't want to go out." -Aron-

They decided to let JR rest on his birthday because they knew JR has been tired with what happened recently.

-----

JR and Yuna talked on phone every day. They miss each other a lot. Yuna also shared how her father became so strict with her life and relationship. JR felt sad but he understood Yuna's condition.

On his birthday, he turned off phone for full day and he didn't tell Yuna about his birthday too.

[ At JR's House ]

"Jonghyun-ah, where are you going? Will you come back home early? I wanna cook for your birthday. Let's have dinner together! It has been a while." JR's older sister talked to him before he left home.

"I wanna go to relax a little bit. If that old woman doesn't come, I'll come to have dinner with you." JR referred to his mother.

"Mom won't come. Alright, go to relax and come back early. I'm waiting!" -JR's older sister-

JR agreed to come back for dinner with his noona(older sister) then left.

-----

[ At Han River ]

JR came to relax at Han River, laying on grass and slept like he does every time.

Yuna knew it's her boyfriend's birthday today so she asked permission from her dad to go out today. She tried to contact JR but he turned off the phone so she couldn't contact. She even called Aron to ask if JR is with them but he also said he couldn't contact him. Yuna decided to go to find JR at Han River. She finally found him there.

Yuna quietly sat down next to him, made sure she didn't wake him up.

"Dad, I miss you." JR talked in his sleep.
"I'm so lonely. No, I've been lonely since you left. Dad Dad..." he continued sleep talking and even cried in his sleep.

Yuna held his hand to calm him. JR woke up and saw her.

"Yuna? Am I not dreaming?" he quickly got up.

"Why are you here?" -JR-

"I tried to call you since morning but you turned off your phone. I came here, hoping you're here and you're really here. I know it's your birthday so I want to celebrate it with you." -Yuna-

"You can come out now? Are you feeling better?" he patted her face.

"Yes I'm completely fine now." Yuna gave him a fine smile.

"How about your dad? Did he allow you to come out?" JR was hesitating to ask.

"I got permission from him for today. Don't worry!" -Yuna-

"Sorry to turn off my phone! I just want to relax." -JR-

"Do you want to be alone? Should I leave?" -Yuna-

"No no, please stay! I'd love to be with you. I miss you so much." he hugged her.

"I miss you too. Happy birthday!" Yuna hugged him back tightly.

"Thank you! It's the best gift I ever have on my birthday." -JR-

"I've baked you a cake. Let's eat now before it's melt." -Yuna-

Yuna took out the cake from box.

"Feed me, my love! Feed me with the love you have for me." - JR-

Yuna looked at him with a sweet smile then she gave him a quick kiss on his lips.

"You surprised me. It's rare that you kissed me first." -JR-

"You said feed you with love." Yuna shyly replied.

"Since when you became this naughty. What else can you show me your love?" -JR-

Yuna covered her hands over his neck and looked at him with a smile before she approached him. She kissed his left cheek then right cheek and last she attacked his lips. JR hugged her tight and returned the kiss. They were kissing with love and miss.

"I can feel your love now. Thank you!" he kissed on her forehead and gave a deep hug.

"I hope you don't be hurt. Please be happy! I saw you were crying earlier, sleep talking about your father. I don't know what happened but please don't be hurt. I love you, Jonghyun." Yuna patted his head.

JR burst out crying. Yuna released the hug.

"Why? Why are you crying?" Yuna asked worriedly.

"I've been coward. I dare not to tell you about my family." -JR-

"I'm not insisting. You can tell me when you feel like telling. Don't be hurt! Don't cry!" Yuna wiped his tears.

JR grabbed her hand to kiss and kept crying, kissing her hand.

"Jonghyun-ah, don't be like this! Why are you crying like this? Don't be hurt!" Yuna patted his head.

(He seems to have problems inside his family. Is this how he became a gangster? Jonghyun, I'll try my best to help you from this pain.) Yuna was talking in her mind. She felt so pity on JR.

After a while, JR stopped crying.

"Sorry to let you see me like this! Let's eat your cake!" -JR-

"I hope you feel better now. Let's eat the cake!" -Yuna-

Yuna feed him the cake. JR finally could smile and enjoyed the moment with Yuna.

-----

"Yuna, would you like to go to my house? My older sister is preparing a dinner for me. I would like you to join too. What will you say?" -JR-

Yuna was surprised to be asked for a dinner at his house all of sudden.

"If it's really ok, I'd love to go." she agreed.

Then they went to JR's house.

-----

[ At JR's House ]

"Come in! It's my house." they arrived in front of his house.

"It's so huge." Yuna got surprised to see JR's house.

They entered the house together.

"Hello, young master!" a few servants came to welcome JR.

"Where is my noona?" -JR-

"She hasn't come back from shopping yet. She said she'll cook for you tonight." -servant-

"I got it. When she's back, tell her I'm already home and my girlfriend will have dinner with us too. I'm gonna go to my room now." JR said then grabbed Yuna's hand to go upstairs with him.

-----

[ In JR's Room ]

"Jonghyun, wait!" Yuna was hesitating to enter his room.

"What? Are you afraid to be with me alone in the room? I just want to have private place to tell you about my family. I know you always doubt about it when Yuri said I'm a bad child. Come in, I'll tell you everything. I won’t disrespect you. Don’t be scared!" -JR-

Yuna came in.

"Here a seat on my bed! My room is very neat, right? I may look messy but my room is always neat and clean. I like it this way." he said then went to take a guitar then came to sit next to her.

"You play guitar?" -Yuna-

JR was playing guitar for her before he answered her.

"I play guitar. I love it a lot. Maybe because my dad was an guitarist. But he has passed away 5 years ago." -JR-

"Why did he pass away?" -Yuna-

"Because of me! I made my dad die." JR lost his smile and started sobbing.

"My father likes playing guitar so much. He was a guitarist and even had his own band when he was young. After married with my mother, he still wanted to continue playing his guitar so he didn't help my mother with her company. Every day he would go to musical class to teach his students playing guitar. My mother doesn’t like it at all. She never respects him because she is richer. She looks down on my dad and called him useless. One night they argued so much. Mom asked for a divorce but my father didn’t agree. He was begging her as well as my sister and me. Mom decided to leave this house. She left on her car. I was begging her not to leave but she didn't care. I was running on the road to beg her but she ignored. I was about to get hit by a car while running to follow my mother, but dad rushed to push me from the road and ended up got hit himself. My dad died right away and that woman didn't even bother to come back to see him at his last breath." JR told Yuna his story and kept crying.

Yuna got so shocked to hear about his past. It's such a nightmare for him.

"It's not your mistake Jonghyun, not anyone's mistake. Stop blaming yourself for your father's dad! Instead you should try to be a good person that your father can be proud of." Yuna kept patting his back to console.

"This nightmare haunted me every night. I never have a good sleep. I hate how heartless that woman is. My dad may be a bit selfish but he never hurts this family. He loves us so much. He just wanted to do what he loves." -JR-

"You have to move on. Stop hurting yourself! He must be watching you from heaven. You have to live well so that he doesn't have to worry." -Yuna-

"Yuna, can you give me a hug but ignore me crying, please! I wanna cry my pain hurt. Just a moment, I won't take it long. Please ignore me crying!" -JR-

"Do as you want, Jonghyun!" -Yuna-

Yuna gave him a warm hug. JR laid on her chest, crying his pain out inside her arms. He cried till fell asleep in that position. Yuna kept quiet, patting his head and let him sleep. She felt really sad to know about his past. Now she can understand why he became this kind of person. He is lacking of love from parents.

-----

A moment later :

"Jonghyun, Jonghyun!" JR's older sister knocked the door and entered the room. She saw them in that position.

Yuna was shocked then JR woke up.

"Noona(older sister)! You come now!" JR talked with half asleep.

"Dinner is ready. Let's go to eat!" -JR's Noona-

They went to dining room.

[ At Dining Room ]

"Noona, this is my girlfriend, Yuna. Yuna, this is my older sister." JR introduced them to each other.

"Hi, unnie(older sister called by girl)! I'm Yuna. Nice to meet you!" Yuna bowed.

"Hi, Yuna! Nice to meet you! Make yourself at home. Please eat a lot!" JR's noona warmly welcomed Yuna.

"How long have you been dating?" his sister asked.

"Like a month now! But Noona I will make a family with her." -JR-

"What? Just one month and you're already thinking of making a family? How did gangster like you be this sure?" his sister teased him.

"I'll make you see. I'll make this young love grow old together." -JR-

"If you want to give her a good family then you should stop fighting and try to study instead. This is what you should so, Young Master. Mom has only you." -his sister-

"I'm not gonna work for that old woman." -JR-

"Why do you address your mom that way in front of your girlfriend?" -his sister-

"It's my birthday. Can we just stop talking about something disturbing me like this?" -JR-

"Alright alright! By the way, Yuna, how could you fall in love with my gangster brother? You're very beautiful. You can find a better boy. This kid is very lazy and gang." his sister teased JR again.

"Noona!!!" -JR-

"I know he's a gangster but the more I know about him, I can feel his beautiful heart. I know he's not all good but he's not all bad too. So I hope we change learn about each other and correct each other 's weak and bad points. I'm not all good though. We're still learning about each other. I hope you don't mind our relationship." -Yuna-

"Yuna, hearing your words like this I think my brother finally did the best thing in life. He's choosing the right girl. You're very thoughtful. Please help me to educate my gang brother! He’s very spoiled. We have only two siblings and our family’s future is in his hand. But look at what he is doing every day. My mom and I are really worried." his sister felt proud of Yuna but showed her worries for JR.

"Thank you for accepting our relationship and I’ll try my best!" Yuna slightly bowed to her with a smile.

They were talking and having a great time together. Suddenly, JR's mother made a phone call to his sister.

"Hello, Mom! Yes he's here. Ok I'll hand the phone to him.... Jonghyun, Mom wants to talk with you." she handed the phone to him.

"No, I don't talk with that woman. Take it away!" JR quickly refused.

"Please! She just wants to wish you a happy birthday. You turned off your phone. She has been phoning you for full day. Stop ignoring her! Talk with her!" his sister insisted.

"No! Stop forcing me!" JR hit the table and stood up angrily.

His sister became teary.

"Jonghyun, don't be like this! Just listen to what she says if you don't want to talk. Don't hurt your sister and mother like this! It's very good feeling to receive a wish from parents on birthday. I beg you. Please take the phone!" Yuna held his hand to calm his anger and begged him to answer the phone.

JR was silent for a while then decided to take the phone. He didn't speak anything just listened to his mom speaking.

"JR's Mom : Jonghyun-ah, happy birthday to you, my dear son! I wish you healthy, happy and graduate from highs chool successfully this year, I love you, my dear son."

JR listened and cried. Yuna kept holding his hand tight. After finished talking on phone with his mother, he burst out crying. Yuna hugged him to console. His sister walked to pat his back to console too.

-----

After dinner, JR sent Yuna home by car, drove by his driver.

[ Inside the Car ]

Yuna laid her head on his chest and their hands kept holding each other.

"So tomorrow you're going back to school, right?" -JR-

"Yes, I feel better a lot now. I want to go back school." -Yuna-

"Good! I want to meet your classmate who I hit at Karaoke that day." -JR-

"Why?" Yuna broke the hug and looked at him. She surprisingly asked.

"To apology and I want to ask for more detail how those guys who beat him look like. I will find justice for him and myself. Can you take me to meet him?" -JR-

"I'm so proud of you. Let's meet after class then!" she smiled and hugged him again.

"I said right I'll listen to you. I want to see you happy. I love you, Yuna." he kissed on her head.

"Don't kiss me like this! We're not alone." Yuna referred to the driver.

"Who cares?! We're reaching your home soon, I wanna hug and kiss you like this." he teased her by kissing her head a few times more.

"Stop it! You're so naughty." she looked up to stop him but JR took chance to kiss her lips instead.

"Your boyfriend is this naughty because of you. You're so lovely. I love everything about you." he gave her a soft smile.

"I really love when you smile and look at me like this. Don't cry too much, please smile more!" Yuna patted his face.

JR

"Ouch, young master, I wish I had a sweet love like this when I was in high school. Young love isn't that bad. You look so happy. I rarely see you smile like this. I wish you both would be like this forever." the driver couldn't stand with their sweetness.

Yuna became so shy, hitting JR's chest. JR held her to his chest to calm her shyness.

"Thank you, Uncle!" -JR-

-----

They arrived at Yuna's house and her father was waiting in front of the house. They quickly came out from car to show respect to Mr. Song.

"Dad, are you waiting for me?" -Yuna-

"Uncle, good evening! Sorry to take your daughter home this late." JR gave a deep bow.

"Where have you both gone?" -Mr. Song-

"Today is my birthday. I took Yuna to have dinner at home with my family." -JR-

"Like I told you it's his birthday so I wanted to celebrate with him." Yuna added.

"Ok it's late night now. Let's go inside! You need to take rest and tomorrow you will have class too." -Mr. Song-

"Yes Dad"
"Jonghyun, goodnight! Take care on the way back home!" Yuna waved good bye to JR with a smile.

"Goodnight, Yuna! Goodnight uncle! Please have a good sleep tonight!" JR bowed politely to him.

JR kept standing with respect until Yuna and her father enter the house. Yuna kept turning back to wave at him.

"This is the happiest birthday I ever had for 5 years. Thank you, Yuna! I love you. Have a good sleep tonight!" JR felt very happy to spend birthday with his girlfriend.

He went back home and couldn't stop smiling about his happy and sweet moments with Yuna today.
