Chapter 40.

Numbed.

 

 

Friday; November 23.

 

"There's this littel girl that I met when I was a kid. She's really pretty and it's as if the world stopped moving whever she smiles. It's true though, her smile is really captivating." 

"So are you still in contact with this girl?"

U-kwon turned and looked at me, "I moved house after a year after I met her so I lost contact with her ever since." 

"Oh, I'm sorry about that." 

*But she's standing right in front of me now. It's feels different, it's as if she isn't the same girl that I knew in the past.*

U-kwon was staring at me without any expressions on his face. I blinked a few times at him and waved my hand in front of his face.

He stopped walking and I did the same.

"Yah, are you okay?"

3 days have passed since I met U-kwon and the both of us got really close. And Youngjae wasn't replying to my texts too, he's most probably busy preparing for their comeback. 

"Yeojin." His voice sounded really serious.

"What is it?" Seeing that he suddenly became so serious, I was getting nervous too. 

"Do you remember a little boy when you met when you were a child?"

I looked at him, confused. 

My eyebrows furrowed in confusion as I tried to place back the small bits of my childhood. 

 

-----Flashback-----

"Yah!" Mini U-kwon screamed at me. I stuck my tongue out at him and ran away from him. 

"Get back here you little devil!" U-kwon yelled at me while chasing after me. 

"Yukwon!" I stopped abruptly in my tracks and looked up. U-kwon's mother was standing in front of me. 

"Omma? What are you doing here?" U-kwon stood beside me, panting. 

"Hurry and come with me, we need to go now."

"Go? Go where?"

"We are moving to another place so we need to leave now. Hurry." His mum extended her hand out to him. 

U-kwon glanced at me worriedly. 

"Omma, can you give me a minute?" His mum took a glance at me and nodded before walking away. 

He walked over and stood in front of me. He reached into his left pocket. 

"This is for you." He took my hand and placed the necklace in it. 

"Promise me that you will never forget me." 

-----End of flashback-----

 

I stared at him in disbelief. You mean you are Kim Yukwon?! 

"Yah, are you okay?" He shook my shoulders gently. 

"K-kim Yukwon?" I stammered. 

"So you finally remembered me huh. Took you long enough, little devil." He flicked my forehead. 

I stood there, not moving an single inch. 

"You are not happy to see me?" He looked at me worriedly. 

No no, it's not that. 

I shook my head, "I don't know." 

"Did something happened after I left?" 

No, U-kwon ah. Things were already that way since you came. You just made me forget everything when I'm with you. 

"Kind of." 

"Yeojin, what exactly happened?" 

I let out a soft sigh before telling him everything from the beginning. 

*****

"And you didn't even told me about it?" His eyebrows furrowed. 

"Having your company is already enough to make everything bad disappear for a moment." I smiled at him. 

He ruffled my hair, "But that isn't an reason for you to not tell me about it."

"Yah, you were just 9 years old then. What could you possibly do!"

He pushed my head lightly, "It's still not an reason for not telling me." 

I scowled and fixed my hair. 

"But it's okay, I'm back now." 

I snickered jokingly.

"Yah! Shouldn't you be saying 'Oh I'm so glad you are back, oppa!' and hug me!?" 

I chuckled, "Do you really think I will do that?" 

He made a face, "Yeah well you can't blame me for hoping, can you?" 

I rolled my eyes at him. "I'm glad to have you back." I said as I closed the small gap between the both of us and hugged him. 

The scent reminds me of... Daehyun. 

My heart clenched at the thought of him. 

He patted my back, "Now, let go." 

I let go of him and smacked his arm. 

"Yah!" 

I made a peace sign beside my face and walked away from him. 

He caught up with me and slung his arm over my shoulder. "Tell me more about your life in Seoul." 

Hmmm. I thought of a way to keep it short and simple. 

"I was preparing for my debut but I left the company to come here and I met really great friends at the company too and I miss them. End of story." 

He turned and stared at me, "Seriously, Choi Yeojin? You got to be kidding me."

"Hmm, nope, I'm not." 

"Can't you be a little bit more specific? Like did you have a boyfriend? Who were you the closest with in the company? Tell me more!" He demanded. 

Aish, this idiot. 

"I'm the closest with a guy named Youngjae. You are a little like him though, sacarstic and demanding." I smiled in victory. 

"I did have a boyfriend. His name is Daehyun." I said in a softer voice. 

"Did?" He caught my hint. 

"Yeah, did." 

"Don't be sad! You have me now!" He smiled cutely at me. 

I pretended to gag, "Yeah right." 

His smile became a scowl right away, "Fine then." 

He started walking away from me. 

"Childish!" I stuck my tongue out at his back. 

*****

Aish! Where are you, Kim Yukwon! 

I stopped and looked around, there wasn't a single soul around. I was in a part of the campus, all the buildings looked the same. 

Dance studio? Crap, I don't have my map with me. 

I gave up and went into the dance studio. It's been quite some time since I danced. 

Wow... The studio was huge and it was brightly lit. 

I walked over to the music player and inserted a random disc into it. 

I moved to the rhythm of the music. How I wish Jongup was here. 

"You dance?" I stopped and turned around. 

"What's so surprising about it?" 

"I dance too. I belong to a dance crew, I'm not the best but not the worse as well." He smiled cheekily. 

"Well, what are you waiting for then?" 

Without hesitations, U-kwon walked over and joined me. 

*****

Saturday; November 24. 

 

"Do you want to go somewhere with me?" 

"Where?"

"You will know when we get there." 

The both of us went out of the campus and boarded a bus. 

We alighted from the bus and I looked around. Where are we? 

"Just give me a minute." 

He called someone with his phone, "Hyung, where are you?" 

Hyung? He's talking to someone who is from Korea as well? 

"Cafe? Ah okay I got it. I will be there in a few minutes." 

He ended the call and looked at me. "Let's go." 

I followed him without saying anything. We entered a cafe and U-kwon went over to the counter while I just stood by the door awkwardly. 

"Oh hyung!" He greeted someone.

"Hyung, meet my friend." 

I felt someone nudged my arm behind me and I turned around. 

"Yeojin, meet Jiho hyung." 

My mouth opened slightly when I caught sight of him. 

It can't be.
