Chapter Four

The World Against Us

 

''You know that the media will find out about your affair sooner or later, '' said Yixing with the coldest tone of his. ''The fact that you're cheating on him—''

''Look, '' Chanyeol interrupted him, ''Stop pointing every mistakes to me. I did hurt him, I should apologize to him. But you have no rights to accuse me for mistakes that I've never done, you don't know what's exactly going on here. ''

''Then tell me, what EXACTLY it is?''

There was a long silence, the three of them only stared at Baekhyun who were laying on his bed, pale and stiff. They almost couldn't see his chest was moving under the blanket, the oxygen mask was covering his peaceful face. They tried to convince themselves that Baekhyun was okay that he hadn't fought for his life right now.

''Tao is close friend of Baekhyun. It only matters of time for him to find out. '' Yixing didn't mean to start for an argument but he couldn't help to say what's on his mind. ''Even though his family were against him and Wu Fan ge, but he has managed to convince them. You know that it won't be that long for them to be separated, right? You know that they're loving each other—“

''No, I don't know—''

''And they would end up reuniting, no matter how far they were apart. You know exactly that Wu Fan ge only has his eyes on Tao, right? So what are you doing this to him?''

''Yixing, please, stop!''

Kyungsoo knew that it was better for him to stay quiet, since Yixing had already saying what's on his mind too.

''You know it was wrong for you and him. You know how much Baekhyun loves you more than the pleasure of Wu Fan ge had given to you. You know it was wrong to hurt him and Tao if you were together. There were many hearts be broken and damaged. You hurt him, Tao, and us. You didn't realize it, did you?''

And Yixing couldn't be more right than this.

Chanyeol reached out to hold his lover hand. It was cold, stiff, and he couldn't tell if his soul was still with his body. Silent tears were streaming down Chanyeol's face, and he wouldn't wipe it off.

''Chanyeol-ah, if you want him in your life, put him there. No one should have to fight for that spot. ''

 

***

 

He opened the door when he heard the doorbell. Kris was there, with a smirk curved on his lips. Like they used to be, they were now pressing and embracing each other. But Kris felt something different with him.

''What's wrong now?''

''It's us, '' Chanyeol simply replied him with rather blank expression. ''We are wrong. ''

''Not again, Chanyeol, '' He rolled his eyes and pulled away.

''Go back to Tao, your heart tells you that you're still loving him. You shouldn't be here. I don't belong to you and you are not belong to me. ''

''B—but, I want you and you want me, don't you? Just simply like that—“

''No, it isn't that simple as it is. You want me but you don't need me, and I think I feel the same way. It's over, we're over. ''

''Chanyeol, I just can't—and I can't be with Tao...''

He was ready to close the door when he said, ''We can't be together either. You must aware that we hurt many people if we were together. You must aware that the world is against us. ''

It was a long silence before he finally spoke up.

''So this is a goodbye?''

Chapter 6: Can i slap yixing? I hate how he said those words to chanyeol. Theres a reason why chanyeol stayed w kris and not run after baek eventho he wanted to. Its like he planted it inside chanyeol's head that its wrong to be w kris eventho he wanted to

Makes me wonder how ed up chanyeol is. Does he convince himself that he still love baek and he cant love kris after all those shenanigans he did w kris?
