Kim Ryeowook was a boy full of happiness and care. He was easy to become friends with and easy to love. He was a honor student and basketball player who was loved by most of the cheerleaders the others either had boyfriends or had interests in other people. Ryeowook wasn’t interested in relationships just yet he was still young and had a lot of things he found more important than having a girlfriend. The top thing on the top of his list was befriending Yesung. Ryeowook was positive he could do it and would stop at nothing to do it. He walked to his lunch table with his normal friends before seeing Yesung and walking to sit with him instead.

“Annyeonghaseyo Jongwoon.” He greeted.

“Annyeong.” Yesung sighed looking at his cheese steak.

“Can I sit here?” Ryeowook asked.

“Sure.” He answered. Yesung didn’t talk after that making it awkward for Ryeowook. He stared at Yesung for a full minute hoping he’d look up until he realized.

“Oh my I just realized something awesome.” Ryeowook giggled.

“What?” Yesung asked confused but actually caring enough.

“You’re talking to me!” Ryeowook giggled. “You usually never talk.”

“No one ever talks to me so I don’t talk to them.” He answered silently. “Plus I hate everyone.”

“Even me?” Ryeowook asked. Yesung remained silent for some reason he wanted Ryeowook to stay with him. “Would you like me to leave you alone?”

“No.” Yesung murmured taking Ryeowook by surprise. “Talk to me but don’t tell anyone.” Ryeowook smiled nodded and sat back down next to Yesung. They talked about their lives and how what to live after high school. Ryeowook couldn’t help but feel terrible for Yesung and his situation. He wanted to take Yesung out himself. When Yesung told Ryeowook he didn’t know how much longer he’d be alive Ryeowook placed an arm on Yesung’s shoulder. “I didn’t want to become friends with anyone because I don’t want anyone being affected by my death. I’m like a ghost here and I want it to stay that way.”

“You’re not really a ghost around here. People talk about you all the time. They wonder what your voice sounds like and if you’ll ever smile or laugh.” Ryeowook said.

“Well they will never know or see.” Yesung said back. “Only you will and when I die if they cry over it then I can’t do anything about it.”

“I think the whole school would cry if you died. You’d be better known if you died in the school due to one of your heart attacks.” Ryeowook brought up. “But please don’t die. You’re a very kind person who looks like he needs a caring friend and I want to be that friend for you.”

“Really?” Yesung blushed. “Thank you.”

A group of people saw Yesung talk but could hear him so they tried to get closer until Ryeowook told them to leave.

“But we want to hear his voice.” One said.

“He won’t talk if you crowd him like this!” Ryeowook lied. “Now please go.”

Once they finally left Yesung felt more comfortable.

“Thanks Ryeowook.” Yesung smiled making a nearby group of girls blush remembering his smile.

Later after school Yesung and Ryeowook met up again at the library to study for a test. By study for a test it means they’re just hanging out and talking. Ryeowook and Yesung soon became good friends. One day Ryeowook went to go visit Yesung in the hospital.

“Hey hyung.” Ryeowook smiled holding a dozen flowers.

“Oh god.” Yesung jumped.

“Did I scare you?” He asked.

“No I’m allergic to flowers!” He joked.

“Oh crap you should have told me!” Ryeowook said

“I’m joking.” He giggled. “You actually came to visit me?”

“Yeah.” Ryeowook said sitting on Yesung’s bed. “I have no friends anyway.”

“No you have a lot of friends. Way more than I ever will.” Yesung said.

“You just need to be more social.” Ryeowook advised.

“I really don’t want to.” Yesung said.

“Okay then.” Ryeowook replied. “So are you hungry?”

“No.  I ate some hospital food.” Yesung frowned. “It’s so plain since it and school food.”

“You’ve never eaten anything else?” He asked.

“Nope.” Yesung answered. Ryeowook picked up Yesung. “Whoa, what are you doing?”

“Changing that.”

“Now?”

“Sure! Let’s go!” Ryeowook giggled.

“I don’t know if I can even go due to my heart condition.”

“Oh. Well that .” Ryeowook paused soon letting Yesung down.

Sorry that the chapter was so boring. Next chapter will be sad.
