Saved by an AngelI am standing right in front of Yuju's house. I want to settle everything between us once and for all. I want to say my apology for abandoning her in her down times, for not being a good angel and a friend to her, and for being so immersed by my own feelings when I am well aware that she's having the most painful time of her life.
I've been standing here for almost half an hour and I can't bring myself to ring the bell so I can be done with it. I don't know, I'm afraid about facing her. How can I face her now when I literally left her? Even though she has told me multiple times that I should just get lost and leave her alone, an angel shouldn't do that for I had a contract of being forever with her no matter what happens.
" Yuju, I'm... " I frustratedly brushed my face as I practice what I am going to say.
Why do I feel like I'm going to my crush' house? Why do I feel like I am going to confess to my ultimate love? Jeez.
" good morning? " I hissed at myself when I tried to come up with a not so awkward greeting.
I left the apartment early in the morning, the sky is still pretty dark that time and right now the sun is already up but I haven't done what I came here for. I'm such a puss.
I didn't bother bringing SinB with me because I'm not going anywhere else after this. I can manage to bring myself home alone after I am done here, I guess. I wish I can.
" can I really finish this? " I sighed.
I bit my lip and took a deep breath— whatever may happen, let's just settle this once and for all.
I reached for the doorbell and slowly pressed the button. I clicked it exactly three times and I almost run after, but I gather myself up and stayed at my position, waiting for Yuju to open the door.
A half awake Yuju opened the door, she's wearing a white tee and night shorts. She's frowning at me but I bet she's still not aware of who I am because her eyes are still half open. She's yawning while rubbing her left eye— what an inappropriate behavior she got here.
" good morning? " this is not the tone of voice I've practiced earlier! Jeez.
She stared at me for a second. I saw how startled she was to see me, but she's quick enough to hide it away and her eyes went emotionless so quick when she finally recognized who I am.
" what are you doing here? " she asked me.
" I just want to talk to you "
" we don't have anything to talk about " she said and about to close the door when I stopped it with my hands resulting for my hand to get caught in it. I softly whined for the pain that I felt and Yuju immediately opened the door and grabbed my hand. The emotionless eyes of hers turned into a worried one real quick.
" ya! Why did you do that! " she shouted at me while looking at my swollen hand.
" you're about to close the door for me " obviously.
She annoyedly looked at me and pulled me inside the house.
For the first time after how many years... I once again stepped my foot on my first home. Everything changed, the sofa that I love to take naps during afternoons aren't there anymore, the walls are painted in different color and more, but the memories I had in this house is perfectly playing inside my mind. Like how I tripped on the stairs, how we watch the television in the living room along with her parents and the dining room where we used to eat togeth
