The Pain Inside Us
INFATUATION"I will hang up this call." Jessica answered it cold.
"It's raining a bit here."
"Bye, Soo."
"Can you look down?"
"What do y..."
Jessica opened the window. She looked down from her room at the 2nd floor and found Sooyoung stood there, waving her right hand and carry a kind of lunch bag on her left hand. She recognized that bag. It was the same bag Sooyoung always carry to school as she really loves her mother's cook. Jessica was too drained today to face another thing so she tried to send Sooyoung back to her house. After everything that happened, it wasn't, never easy for her to see Sooyoung. Somehow, it's still feel hurt, no matter how she try to deny it.
"Go home, Soo..."
"Are you hungry? I bring you some hamburgers from the uncle near to our school."
Jessica was surprised. It was 7 years ago, when the last time she enjoyed that hamburger. She loves everything about that hamburger, making it her most favorite food that she mostly enjoyed it with Sooyoung, who was her bestfriend, her dynamite duo pairing. Jessica starred at her and couldn't say a word, tried to understand what did Sooyoung want and brought her here. To her, everything was just too late that she already changed and became someone else.
"I know you're hungry. You always are."
"Go to the hell, Choi Sooyoung."
Sooyoung laughed a little. "Okay. I will." She lifted her chin up and looked at Jessica. "But will you accompany me? There, in the hell."
"You're crazy. Now go."
"I bring you your favorite food and you call me crazy?"
"If you think bringing my favorite food will make me forgive you, you must be the worst jerk alive, ever."
"I don't... I don't come here for that. I know what I did was too hard to forget."
"Then why are you here?"
"I want to start it. I want to try to make you forgive me. I will do anything."
Jessica was stoned for a while, couldn't believe what she just heard. Choi Sooyoung was standing there in front of her house, asking for a chance from her to forgive her, and let her do whatever she wants to make it come true. On the other side, she's still pretty much remember how the pain made her, her right now. She dealt with it, and survived it. From the last time she remember, she stopped to believe in love. People might think it's just a young love but to her, it ruined everything. Jessica woke up from her reverie when realized the raining is getting heavier. From the top, she could see Sooyoung ran to her house just to put the food box and came back to her spot.
"Will you eat with me, Sica?"
"Soo... Please go home... It's raining." She shouted, a bit louder to beat the sound of the rain.
"Eat with me. Or I will stay here."
"I couldn't care less..." She closed the curtain and thrown her body on her bed. 15 min
