Do You Still Love Him?
Promises. Meant to be kept or broken?Kibum's P.O.V
Minutes after Jonghyun left the room, I walked out of the bathroom after fixing myself up and head to my bed sitting myself down when I heard the door suddenly cracked open. I looked at the doors direction, titling my head to at least see who's out there. The door opened revealing a vey familiar man in his white coat beaming a smile at my direction.
"Good Morning Kibum." he greeted happily.
"That's Key for you you chicken maniac." I told him with a fake cheery tone in laced in my voice.
"Well, it seems like you really had a good morning Kibum" he said again now emphasizing my name as he settled himself on the chair beside my bed.
"What brings you here?" I asked him.
"Nothing actually," he said smiling. Nothing? Aish! Onew-hyung sometimes really gets into my nerves. "Just checking out my most favorite patient." he added chuckling. "You're getting discharge this afternoon though."
I looked up at Onew-hyung upon hearing the word discharge from him. "That's good." I said flatly.
"Are you not glad?" he asked me giving me an innocent facade.
"Got used to it." I said in monotone. "Besides, I don't really have to stay in here much longer. I'm feeling okay now. You know, I just had some minor head aches and you guys over reacted." I said.
"We did not over reacted." he said seriously. "You're condition is not a joke Kibum." he added.
"I know." I answered lowly, bowing my head. Of course I know what my condition is. It's my body, and I am the one feeling those. How would I not know.
There was a moment of silence between us. No one even dared to say a word.
"Don't you really want to take the operation?" Onew-hyung asked breaking the silence between us two.
I shook my head in response and replied a 'no' flatly.
"You know Kibum-"
"Key." I cut him off.
"Kibum!" he said with a more serious tone now. "I'm being serious here."
"Call me Key at least." I said back with a serious tone as well.
Onew-hyung just sighed in defeat. "Okay. Okay. Key." he said,
I beamed a smile at him. "Much better." I said.
"Key!" he called. "Can we be serious here for a minute?" he asked. "You know Key, it's your life we're talking here." he said seriously.
I sighed knowing that I lost in changing the topic. I know he will end up talking about my condition again which I am already tired of hearing.
"I know." I replied. "But my answer is still no." I added not daring to look at him to be not able to meet his eyes. I know Onew-hyung can see through me. Onew-hyung knows me better than I know myself. It's just some power he possess I think.
I heard Onew-hyung took a deep breath and exhaled it out. "But Kibum-"
"Key!"
"KEY! If you take the operation, everything will go well." he stated.
"You're not a god to know that." I said back.
"I really am not. But doctors are here to help Kibum. We.. I will help you. I will be there during the surgery to check what they will be doing. All you have to do is trust us. Trust me Kibum!"
"Hyung! It's Key!" I said. Even though his words actually hit me, I don't want to react over it. I'm tired of arguing with Onew-hyung about taking that operation.
"Shut up! I will call you Kibum no matter what! Key's not your name! Kibum! Kibum! Kibum!" he said furiously.
I looked up at Onew-hyung. I can tell that he's already mad about me insisting to be called Key. I laughed at him. Yes. I laughed at Onew-hyung despite him being furious in front of me.
"Kibum. This is not a laughing matter." he said, his voice now turning soft.
"But you're reaction's really funny hyung!" I said back laughing harder and stopped when Onew-hyung did not laugh with me. "Okay. Okay. I'm sorry. I'm sorry hyung!"
Onew-hyung sighed for the nth time since he came in my room. "I'm leaving." he stated, standing up from his seat and I nodded.
"By the way," he asked before starting to walk. "Have you seen Jonghyun?"
My mood suddenly changed with just the mention of Jonghyun's name. From a laughing Kibum, now I'm feeling something I can't actually describe. Guilt maybe.
I looked up at Onew-hyung and meeting his eyes. I quickly averted my eyes and looked somewhere else. "H-he went out t-to buy breakfast." I answered stuttering putting a tone of uninterest, receiving a hum in response.
Onew-hyung walked to the door and opened it when he suddenly called me again. "Kibum."
"What?" I asked somewhat irritated. "You said you're leaving?"
"Do you still love him?" he suddenly asked which caught me off guard.
"What are you talking about?" I asked again, looking at the other side of the room.
"Jonghyun." he said it. He said the name I've been expecting he'd say.
