Memory of Love

 

Day of the auction,

"Today your mom and dad come home, are you going?" Nichkhun asked confused

"I will late. Do not wait until I get home, maybe I'll be home late. Especially Jongwoon, he should not be followed. Make sure he does not disappear from next to Nichkhun. I ask you, please" I begged "Then I'll go first"

                And I had to walk away. Already from the morning to the place they split the auction. Mine is the night, no problem for me to get it later. But I'm looking forward and keep on asking this on Joongki.

"Who will go?" I asked at last

"Yuri, you can not stop make questions, can you? There is secretary of the Kim Donghee and one from Division A.. I told them, basically you do not bother them" he said

"Yeah I know. Hm, but what the heck kind of auction is? I've never been to a show like that" I muttered finally

                Who knows, Joongki heard it. He quickly explained how I should dress, and so on until finally arriving at 5. I leave to go.

                Musical instrument store is not as I had hoped. This store is old and even looks almost collapsed, very different from the auction house stood firm and majestic. I and two strangers entered. We saw the stolen goods. Clever thief. This stuff is nice stuff.

                I mean really if one of the guests was the thief.

"800,000 won!" said one of the mothers

                I saw her and gaping shocked to see how much she dared to offer. Furthermore turns people collect prices. Eventually sold to 2,500,000 won.

                Wow.

                The auction ends. We followed the buyer to take the stolen stone. Surprisingly, shoppers were herded into a small room locked by a strange man. The man who hosted the auction at the event. I told the two men beside me and followed me into the room. We break it down.

"Police! What are you doing here?” I shout put the gun up to people those are here

                Who would have thought people here are apparently unexpected person.

                In front of me, has tied up the mother and their hosts had the highest bidder. Their mouths covered with cloth so they can not scream. While in front of them, on top of a red pillow, put jewelry in a glass box that was tempting.

                And in front of them?

                There he is. Kim Donghee.

                Our police chief.

                Simultaneously, his secretary behind my back turned and tied my hands

"Oops .. Ms. Kwon has come.. Sorry, we are also the police” said Kim Donghee

                Something is wrong with his voice.

"Sadong!" shouted the chief Kim called his secretary "Quick tied your friend behind her, put him into this useless crowd of people. Now, take Yuri here" commanded Kim

                I cringed when the secretary was pull me hurt.

"Still young. Devoted to the nation she said? Yet rather than dangerous job like this, you're better suited to be secretary in the offices. Why? I was surprised to see the mastermind behind it all? Well, you'd better know before you die curious. Sadong, sadong. Sadong!! Where are you? I need a gun!! This girl should be killed quickly" he shouted

                The smell of alcohol, he was drunk

"Is something wrong with your eyes?" he asked angrily glaring at me "I am your boss. Attitude!" he called for the secretary took the gun for him

"Evil! Wicked! So you're only blame Jongwoon! No thanks!” I said "What kind of police you are?" I called again

"Police? Well, what actually duty cop? The cop was not a guard dog! You know it's not overly glorify cop? So stupid youth of today" he said not audibly

"Did you know? Jongwoon was just petty to me. He himself happy in jail right? Oh come on, I just gave him a pleasure. What about me? I gave him a place to stay, I give him food every day"

"But not in jail" I called upset

                . Why I want to cry at this time?

"Hahahahahaha!! What is the difference between him in jail or at home? His parents are dead you know? Dead! He was living alone. Its no use his life, hi dream as a pianist also has faded due to his illness. I just give the color in his life, so that life is more meaningful, I make him as.."

"Thief? You're the rotten! Jongwoon was not a criminal like that!" I called more upset

                So he's just toying Jongwoon? He deliberately uses Jongwoon’s background?!

"Excuse me? I'm good person. By making him as thief, it makes his life more meaningful, right? So he can defend my good name! Hahahahahha. At least he's useful for me. He has useful life for the moment, although at the end of the episode I might kill him" added Kim laughing happily

                Without realizing I cry. My tears stopped when a dark shadow meets my body. And the sound coming from behind me bedebuk toned.

                Sadong successfully beaten unconscious by a man dressed in black. And Kim Donghee also lay helpless in front of me because the hard knocks of the man standing over me.

000

                They are Nickhun and Jongwoon.

"How.. How can you guys here?" I asked in shocked

"We followed you, sorry.. Actually we've seen for a long time. We see you when you're on the belt like this, but we need proof, so we record all the words of this first" said Nichkhun untied me

"So this is the guy? People who steal, use me and your boss? Hm, he's so stupid. Listen, right now I have a happy life. I'm not a quiet person who thought of the past continues to. Listen, I am a cheerful Jongwoon now" said Jongwoon patted Kim Donghee

"Everyone!! Get out! Fight them! Take proof of that!" Cried Donghee suddenly

                And a lot of people out of doors. Nichkhun and Jongwoon docked directly to me.

"Yuri, we will protect you. Just relax" Nichkhun said sure

"And it looks like our hero song needs to be repeated once again" added Jongwoon

                They began to fight.

                Jongwoon empty-handed punching them one on one. Then take the wood between them and join their battles.

                How about Jong Woon had not come? Am I going to die just like that?

                For some reason I could only see Jongwoon now.

                He's not a thief. And the truth was evident.

                He is not a criminal. Then what am I waiting?

                Yes. I knew I liked Jongwoon. Not because of his dazzling. But I love him, love how he treated me. Love how he played the piano for me. Love how he made me laugh..

                Love how...

                Suddenly he stand in front of me, back face me, make me whispered that word spontaneously.

"Saranghae" I said while hug him from the back

                Jongwoon turned back, smiled and kissed me. 

000

"Saranghae..."

                After long passionate kiss, that word came from his mouth when Yuri managed to beat the last opponent unconscious. Jongwoon immediately embraced Yuri and had my hopes dashed.

                Nichkhun, from the beginning you did not get a chance..

                Anyway, anyway Jongwoon is also not a thief anymore..

                I turned around and heard that voice..

                Gunshots.

000

                DOOR..

"No!!!" I cried hysterically

 

 

                The shots was floating beside my ears.  My hands are still hugging Jongwoon, now drenched in warm fresh blood. I looked at him.. His eyes are still looking at me.. But his view is empty.. He no longer look at me like seconds before, now empty eyes staring at the sky, and a second later I fell with him..

 

 

                With.. His lifeless body.

000

 

 

"Ri.. Yuri.. Yuri-ssi!! You're awake!" asked someone in front of me

                I opened my eyes and looked at Nickhun are standing worry in a hospital bed next to where I lay.

                Why am I here? My head hurts..

                I gave up trying to get up ..

"Nichkhun, what happened? Why am I here?" I asked confused

"Your hands hurt earlier.. Damn Donghee! He shot you! I thought he was unable to move. But do not worry Yuri, Donghee had been arrested!" shout Nichkhun upset

"But.. But he.. " he said faltered

"Donghee? Who is he? Shoot? Yah, what’s happened? As I recall, yesterday you asked me to eat, then?" I asked more confused

"What? What did you say?" Nichkhun asked me, shock with something I did not know

"Do not joke! Actually what happens.. Tell me the truth" I called curiously

                Without saying anything, Nichkhun out of the hospital room. Still confused, I'm trying to remember exactly what I forgot. But remember that just made my head dizzy. I gave up and see what date it.. It's almost the end of the month.

                How long was I lying? The last memory I have when I eat with Nichkhun, but it is earlier in the month.

                Soon, Nichkhun comeback.

"Yuri" he said

                I saw his eyes were swollen. Looks like he had been crying for many days.

"Why you are crying?" asked me worried "What's the matter?" I asked again

"Ah.. No.. Hm, already 4 days you lie. Want to get out a little walk?" he asked, try to hide his sobbed

                He pulled me out of the room. He took a wheelchair for me. Out there, Lee ajushi, Ha ajshi, ji ajushi, Kang ajushi and another unidentified young man also came up.

"I'm sorry, I should believe what you said" Lee ajushi said in sad

"I should go with you!" shout Kang ajushi

"Although I was not able to do anything." added Ji ajushi

“Seeing you are here, it is very good, you know?” asked Ha ajushi, he really is crying now

"Who is he?" I pointed at the young man next to them, he just opened his mouth

"You do not know me? I am Song Joongki. Joongki from suspicious items divission." said the man confused

"I’m sorry for interrupted, but let we speak together. Yuri, please wait here" said Nichkhun

                His voice was getting lost. I try to hear it and he said I have amnesia.

                Amnesia? Then I really lost something, right?

                Suddenly I heard the strains of melodious side. A small child is being taught his mother playing the keyboard.

"Nichkhun, what song is this?" I asked suddenly

"Fur Ellise" Nichkhun said suddenly uneasy

"Fur Ellise" I replied, turning my face to see the boy

"Well, this is Beethoven’s. The famous song, do you know why?" he asked again

                I shook my head

"This song is the only Beethoven’s song that was not echoed. This song is legendary because his sad music" Nichkhun explained "to her loved ones" he added

“So the boy is really great, right? I love this song” I said

"Actually there is one more person who could play the piano is more beautiful than this .."

"Who?"

"You'll never see him again Yuri" Nichkhun answered "again .." he added

000

 

 

"Hey, your hair clip fall" called the boy who is talked by everyone

                I my hair and realized that really is my hair clip.

                It means, he call me, right?

"Here. Let me put in your hair" said the man

                He came up to me and put that hair clip in my hair. We do not differ much higher this time, but I'm taller. He needs to stand on tiptoe to put the hairclip in my hair.

"When I grow up, I will be taller than you" he said suddenly

                And I laughed.

                He is adorable. I thought he was a cool kid because his talent is not usual.

"Hehe, my name is Yuri, and you?” I said give me a hand

"Jongwoon!" A yeoja shouted behind him

                We both turned and that boy waved at the woman.

"Umma I'm here, I'm going there now!! Wait!" shout him "My name is Jongwoon. Yuri, I’m going first. See you later" he said, smiling at me

                And I also smiled back at him.
