Echoing

Within Me

~Changmin~

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My conscious was coming back, as I was feeling all numb in my body

I opened my eyes slowly to see the ceiling, plain grey and boring.

I looked to the right to see the clock on my night desk showing me 10 pm

Well.. I had been sleeping all day then

I sat up slowly, groaning a bit and tried to not do it fast or else my mind would make me all dizzy

"Hyung?"

My voice cracked before I could even end the sentence

"Hyung?" I said a bit louder

I squinted with my eyes, the pain hadn't disappeared yet

"Hyung?"

My voice was more.. like.. pleading now and.. desperate

SooN i heard someone walking outside and Yoochun entered

"Oh Changmin.. I thought I heard someone call"

he walked over to me and sat down next to me

"Gwenchana?"

I shook slowly

"I need my medicine.." I said tiredly

"It's right here.."

He reached for the bag on the night desk and gave it to me, He then took the glass of water and handed it to me as well

I drank it slowly and tried to not think too much

"Feeling better?" Yoochun asked after a few minutes

"Yeh.. Gomawo" I smiled

"Junsu and Yunho is sleeping already. Me and JaeJoong are in the livingroom watching a movie. We're going to sleep in the livingroom tonight" He said

I looked at him

"Wae?"

"Since Eunmi is borrowing our room"

"She's still here?" I gasped

he nodded

"She's been with you all day.. She took care of you all day. even though you were just sleeping, she cleaned your face, cooked you dinner even though you weren't awake.She made us dinner as well and she was reading from a book of hers while you were sleeping"

I fell deep into my thoughts and I slowly remembered her words that I've heard earlier

"Oh.. I think.. I woke up while she was reading for me.." I said

He nodded

"She then, after dinner sat down next to you on the bed and kept reading from the book. I don't know why she did it but she really didn't stop. She then fell asleep when I was checking up on you.. I think it was about 20 minutes ago" Yoochun shrugged

"oh.."

"Seems like she's a really kind person.." Yoochun said

"Indeed.."

"I've never seen or met a girl like that before" He said

"Me either" I agreed

We both laughed quietly

"She's really innocent.." Yoochun said

I nodded

"She's so caring.. towards others.."

"Yeah.. I've noticed.. She has been taken care of you like you were very close to her.. and you guys aren't not even that close.. You like.. just started to get to know each other"

I nodded

"I know.. but somehow, for everyday that I spend time with her, I get to know her more... Her happiness, her brightness.. she's so pure" I said

We both laughed

"Well..s he's sleeping now. The dinner was great too.. She made us some dukkbokki" Yoochun smiled

"Oh chincha? I want some!" I smiled

He nodded

"She saved a lot for you.."

I nodded

Yoochun helped me out of bed slowly and I put on a sweater and walked out to the kitchen, taking every and each step carefully cause I was afraid that the pain might come back

"oh.. you're awake"

JaeJoong stood up and walked over to me

"Gwenchana?"

"I'm fine Hyung"

JAeJOong nodded

Both Yoochun and JaeJoong accompanied me in the kitchen while I was eating

We started to talk about Eunmi which turned into a really funny conversation

"She's really odd.. too" JaeJOong laughed

I looked at him

"Wae?" I laughed

"She demanded us to leave the kitchen right after we had finished our dinner. She then cleaned the table and made all the dishes.. She peeled fruits for us afterwards and put the bowl in front of us in the livingroom, after that she went back into your bedroom and didn't leave your side until she fell asleep" JaeJoong laughed

"Chincha?"

Jaejoong nodded

"Well.. Yunho carried her into my and Yoochun's bedroom so.. we're sleeping in the livingroom for the night"

"Oh.. But you can sleep in my bedroom" I said

They shook their heads

"I think it's better if you get more peace and quiet.. We don't want you to have that pain coming back again" Yoochun said seriously

I nodded

"We were thinking of calling your parents, but we thought it might be better if you did it" JaeJOong said

"No need.. I don't want them to worry about me" I shrugged

"But.. they should know" Yoochun said

"I know.. BUt they are so caught up in this thing with finding the best doctor who can remove my tumor.. So I'll just bear with the pain a bit more.. If I can't take it then I promise I will call home" I said

They nodded

"Araso.."

I finished my dinner and JaeJoong cleaned the dishes. Yoochun went to back to the livingroom and I felt more stronger since I had more energy now

I decided to check up on Eunmi . I knocked silently on the door but there was no answer

I opened the door slightly . My eyes wandered around in the bedroom and soon I found her sitting at Hyung's writing desk. Well not sitting actually, more like.. sleeping..

I laughed quietly

I entered and walked towards her and looked at her..

She had been writing in her report book

Whoa.. so she did take this project seriously huh ?

I decided to help her over to the bed.

But I thought Hyung said that she had fallen asleep on my bed earlier..

Well she maybe woke up and started to write something and then she fell asleep again

Carefully, and with all my strength, I lifted her fromt he chair and over to the yoochun Hyung's bed and tucked her in.

She changed her position and breathed slowly

I took it easy and walked over to the desk. I cleaned the desk up and took all the pencils and put it into the pencilbag.

When I was about to close her report book I saw the sentence that caught my attention

I leaned closer to see what it was saying

"... I'm worried.. He has been sleeping all day . But I can't sleep in the same bedroom with him although i want to. I want to because I want to take care of him, watch over him. I hope he'll get better soon.. It's not fun when he's sick.. Please get well Nam Pyeon ^o^ .. .I guess I'm a bit tired though.. but it doesn't matter.. someone else.. needs..."

The sentence seemed to not be finished and seems like she had fallen asleep while writing it

But I couldn't help but smile at it

She was so caring..

Chincha..

I grabbed the pen and wrote a sentence before closing it and turning off the light

I walked out of the bedroom silently and closed the door behind me.
I passed the livingroom to see JaeJoong Hyung and Micky Hyung had fallen asleep. I sighed and shook my head with a smile

They must have been exhausted. They had stayed at the hospital with me the whole night before.. so I guess they were pretty exhausted.

I turned off the tv and the lights and tucked my hyung's in before going back to my bedroom. I lied down on my bed and took out my black notebook..

I opened a new page in it and started to write in it..

IT was some kind of memoir.. I liked to write everything that I've been through down. . I wanted to remember those memories..

I smiled as I kept writing..

After half an hour I closed the book and put it under my bed. I turned off the lights and went to sleep

even this time the same love quote that Eunmi had been reading for me earlier was echoing before I fell asleep

"As much as the sun that rises above you,
I’ll keep you safe as much as you’ve waited for me, with this glaring heart,.. all the dreams I've prayed for, they're going towards you with my sincere scent.... I hope that my wishes of smiling next to you every new morning,
Will be able to come true.."

Chapter 58: new reader & subscriber :) just found this story of yours & I like it even though it's sad :( love how Changmin & Eunmi fall for each other & the friendship of DBSK. It was really sad that it ended Changmin being died just to save her but it just shows how much he loves her. this is really a heartbreaking story but it is also a wonderful story that it can be really happening in true life. And also those loved ones we lost may not be with us but the memories we had with them will always be remembered & stayed in our hearts just like what I had realized after losing some of my loved ones. continue on creating good stories like this :))
