Yoong's POV

 

 

CRASHHHH

 

 

I heard it, I heard it loud and clear, it was a crash, and I knew from the reaction of the people that it wasn't good, but I

didn't want to see it. I was afraid. Afraid to see what or who it was.

 

 

“JESSICA UNNIE!!” I heard Seohyun's voice, and I felt my whole world start to fall apart.

 

 

Please, not Sica, anyone but Sica. Please let me be hearing things, please please please. I kept chanting in my head

as I made my way through the crowd.

 

 

Finally reaching the clearing, I felt my knees weaken. There she was. Laying there. Seohyun was besides her, but she

just stared, probably shocked and surprised at what just happened. I made my way towards her, each step heavier than

the last.

 

 

“O-o-oppa..” Seohyun stared at me.

 

 

“Sica..” I sat down and pulled her into my arms.

 

 

“Sica, wake up. Hmm, wake up now, Sica-yah. Wake Up.” I held her body in my arms shaking her, trying to wake her,

but then I felt something wet on my hand. I lifted it out from under her head, and it was covered in her blood.

 

 

Again, my whole world shattered.

 

 

“Sica-ah~ wake up now, I'm here now. Please wake up, you know you shouldn't be sleeping on the sleep. So wake up

hmm?” I kept trying, my tears blurring my vision.

 

 

“Sica...please.” I whispered, holding her body tighter, but she wasn't responding. I didn't get to see her open her eyes

that always manage to me in.

 

 

“Sir.” A man tapped my shoulder, and I looked up to see it was one of the paramedics.

 

 

“Sir, please let us take her.” He pleaded, while 2 other men brought a stretcher, but I kept holding her in my arms.

 

 

“Sir, we'll take care of her we promise.” the man said, but I didn't give her to them, instead I carried her myself, I placed

her on the stretcher myself, and I, somehow, managed to get her up on the ambulance myself.

“WE HAVE AN EMERGENCY PATIENT!” The paramedics yelled as they dashed inside the ER, my hand still holding

tightly onto hers.

 

 

“Get a CT scan and an X-ray, and get an OR ready!” I heard the doctor yell, but my focus was still on her angelic face. I

was only brought back to the harsh reality, when I felt her hand slip away from mine, and I was too slow to hold on

tighter.

 

 

“Sica.” I called out and tried to follow the doctors and nurses who were wheeling her away.

 

 

“Sir, you can't go there.” the nurses stopped me from going any further, I tried to push forward, but the nurses were firm.

 

 

“Sir, please you can wait out here. She'll be fine.” They tried to reassure me, and I couldn't do anything but slumped

down to the floor.

 

 

I couldn't do anything. I didn't even, notice that she and Seohyun left. I was too angry at that jerk, that I didn't see her.

I...it's my fault. Sica..please please please be okay, I prayed.

 

 

After a couple of minutes, a nurse came up to me.

 

 

“Sir, if you'd like, you can wait in front of the OR.” She said, and I just followed. At least I can be closer to her.

 

 

Minutes passed, and soon Seohyun arrived.

 

 

“Oppa.” Seohyun approached me slowly.

 

 

 

“Oppa, Jessica unnie, she'll be fine.” She held me in her arms.

 

 

“Hyunnie..this is all my fault. I'm so so sorry Hyunnie. I shouldn't have gone looking for him. I did so many bad things

tonight. To you, to him, and to Sica.” I cried.

 

 

“Shhhh oppa, It's okay. I forgive you. I know that I was overreacting too. I'm sorry. And this isn't your fault oppa, it's mine.

If I hadn't been so engulfed in my emotions, then Jessica unnie..she..she wouldn't be here right now. Oppa...please

forgive me.” Seohyun cried.

 

 

“Hyunnie...you shouldn't be sorry. You did nothing wrong.”

 

 

“Oppa..” I felt Seohyun's stare on me, and soon, she too started staring at the doors, waiting.

 

 

Minutes passed, and Jessica's family came.

 

 

“Yoong!” “Oppa!” I heard their yell.

 

 

“Yoong, Sooyeon..what happened to Sooyeon hmm?” Mrs. Jung knelt down, her tears already falling.

 

 

“Yoong answer her. What happened to Sooyeon? What happened to my baby girl?” Mr. Jung shook my body.

 

 

“Jessica unnie, she..she saved my life.” Seohyun answered for me, and Mr. Jung finally let me go. While Seohyun told

them what happened on the streets.

 

 

“Yoong oppa..” Krystal came next.

 

 

“Yoong oppa...” She called me again.

 

 

“Yoong OPPA!” Krystal lost her temper and yelled at me.

 

 

“Oh Krys..” I briefly peeled my eyes away from the doors, and looked at her.

 

 

“Oppa.. you...you promised me that you'll protect unnie..wh-what is this?” She asked me, and I just looked down, I

couldn't lift my head up to face her.

 

 

“Oppa Answer me!” She demanded.

 

 

“I'm sorry Krys. I'm sorry.” I lifted my head, tears falling down again.

 

 

“Unnie...” Krystal began to cry.

 

 

“Yoong what the hell happened!” A loud voice suddenly echoed throughout the hall.

 

 

“Yah! Im Yoong!” Tiffany yelled.

 

 

“Fany-ah calm down. I'm sure Jessi's okay.” Taeng tried to calm Tiffany down.

 

 

“Im Yoong, if you don't answer me right now, I swear I will hit you..hard. So tell me what happened to my best friend that

she's in the OR right now?” Tiffany said in a hushed but very threatening tone.

 

 

“Fany unnie, I'll tell you. Oppa..he's been like that, let's just let him be.” Krys, with the help of Taeng, dragged her away

from me.

Seohyun had already left, and hours had passed, until the doors finally slid open, and the surgeon finally came.

 

 

“How is she?” I ran up to the doctor, with everyone else following.

 

 

“Are you her family? ” He asked.

 

 

“How is she?” I asked again ignoring his question.

 

 

“Ms. Jung suffered internal bleeding and her head was injured as well, we managed to save her, but her condition is

critical, so we'll be placing her in the ICU for now.” The doctor gave us the summary.

 

 

Sica...please be okay. Please.

 

 

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

 

 

“Sica..I'm here.” I whispered, while I held firmly to her hand after she was moved to the ICU.

 

 

“Sooyeon..appa and umma are here too.” Mr. Jung said, holding tightly to her other hand.

 

 

“Jessi, TaeTae and I are here too.” Tiffany said, her eyes puffy and red from crying.

 

 

We all stayed in the ICU with her, though we weren't suppose to all be in there, but the Jung's funding the hospital they

let us.

 

 

More hours passed, and the Jungs, Tiffany, and Taeng decided to head home, they tried to get me to leave but I

couldn't leave her again.

~2 weeks later~

 

 

“Sica~ I'm here.” I happily chirped, while heading inside her VIP ward.

 

 

“Seohyun wanted to come, but she's too busy with her new friend, Yonghwa, but you know what I think, I think she likes

him.” I chuckled to myself, remembering how Seohyun accidentally ran into Yonghwa in the hospital's cafeteria spilling

his meal all over him a week ago.

 

 

“Sica guess what? Won Geun, that jerk, he left for good. He left Hyunnie and me a letter apologizing for what he did and

promised never to appear in our lives again. Tch~ didn't even have the guts to do it himself. But oh well as long as he is

gone, I'm okay with it.” I kept talking.

 

 

“Oh and Sica, did you know that boy that Krys is always with, well he finally confessed to her. But he had to go through

me and uncle first. He was so scared that I think he was about to wet his pants.” I laughed to myself remembering

Minho's face.

 

 

“Oppa! What are you telling unnie?” Krystal suddenly barged in with Minho trailing behind.

 

 

“Krys chill, I wasn't telling your unnie what you and hmmmmpppphhhh.” Krystal clamped my mouth shut.

 

 

“Hyung hello.” Minho bowed politely.

 

 

“Ah Minho, what are you doing here?” I asked.

 

 

“I just wanted to accompany Soojung.” Minho smiled.

 

 

“Yah~ why did you use my Korean name?” Krystal glared at Minho.

 

 

“Why? I think it's cute. Forward it's Jung Soojung, backwards it's Jung Soojung.” Minho said in a sing-song voice, while

Krystal had her you-are-so-dead look on.

 

 

“Minho.” I called out.

 

 

“Yeah hyung?”

 

 

“Run.” I chuckled, seeing him suddenly d
