Polluted

Loud coughing fits could be heard from the hallway where London stood. She was in an apartment complex in the worker’s district. Next to her stood Jaebum and the rest of the team members waiting for news.

An elderly man finally walks out and takes of his mask, clearing his throat.

“Yugyeum has contracted Polluted Lung Disease.”

A sense of shock settled among the members, “How bad is it?”

“I think you should notify his family, it is in the second last stages progressing quickly to the final stage. He has had it for quite of period of time, had he shown any symptoms before this?”

“He always seemed fine until he collapsed today!”

“Isn’t there anyway to help him? He’s still young right?”

The doctor shakes his head, “There is still no cure for his disease. Especially when is presents this way. I am sorry that there isn’t anything more I can do for your friend.”

London follows Jaebum back to his home quietly; it was obvious he was barely holding one. Jaebum unlocks the door and goes to the sink and starts cleaning up. Without Jaebum yells, frustrated at himself for not noticing, angry at the people who sent them out there.

“It’s not fair, he’s so young!” He spits and sends a glass he was holding across the room and it shatters sending shards in every direction. London runs over and wrapped her arms across is body holding his arms down tightly

“You’ll hurt yourself.”

It takes some time, but London slowly felt the anger subsides into shallow breaths and wet eyes. He eventually looks up

Jaebum sighed

“Sorry you had to see that- “Jaebum couldn’t finish his sentence as he swore under his breath

[SPOILER ALERT; Please DON'T read this comment]

I can't believe I forgot to drop a comment after I finished reading this! I was prowling through my subscriptions (because I sometimes clear them out if I lose interest in a story) but I acutely remember your story--I think I read it a month or so ago.

It was very beautiful and I also acutely remember liking your writing style! Like the person who commented below me, I think the saddest (and also the most beautiful) part of this story was that Jinyoung and our OC's fate was to meet but never be together and that he would aid her with finding Jaebum and saving him. What's wonderful about your characterization of Jinyoung is that he could have been the antagonist but he was so human and he loved her so much that he was willing to help her no matter what. I mean, that's life, right? Sometimes things happen for a reason and not everything can go our way, no matter how much you love a person and you just have to learn to let go. Thanks for this awesome story! :)

Chapter 20: This is beautiful!! I really like how the character Jinyoung was developed. He had all the elements to turn into a bad guy but he chose not to. Also, I think it was his fate to make sure that London and Jaebum would find each other and will be together ever after. His destiny was not to love London but to help her find her love. Beautiful!!
