Chapter Thirty Seven

🔹Thirty Seven🔹

Third Person's Point Of View

Wonwoo slams the door of their dorm and lunged towards the guy who had made their friend suffered enough. He grabs Mingyu's collar and punch him on the face.

"Is that your way of repaying her kindness? You choose that useless girl over our own bestfriend? What more did you hope from her in the future, Gyu?" Wonwoo huffed in annoyance.

"Are you saying that Serin is useless? Then, same goes to Erin! She will never attend the school if it's not because of my help and in those years which she didn't attend school was the most challenging life for me! Who would be there when I needed someone? Were you? Or Erin? It was Serin after all! You and Erin are the useless freak I've ever met!" Mingyu exclaimed while brushing his side lips that got injured after the punch.

Wonwoo chuckles lightly when his bestfriend started to reminisce the past that didn't need to drag along Erin in those situations because she doesn't even know a thing when all she did at that time was working. He knew it from Seungcheol already about Erin real condition.

*Flashback*

Wonwoo took a seat beside Seungcheol's bed. "You owed me an explaination, hyung." He said while demanding answers from him. Sungcheol sighed in defeat since he knew this moment would come at the end of the days.

"What do you wanna know first?" Seungcheol asked. "Tell me about her actual condition. I don't see the on off fever is the factor of her bad condition after all," Wonwoo managed to let out his words calmly despite the anger he held on to himself.

"The doctor once mention to me that she frequently skip or never took her medicine when she caught a cold. Even it was a common cold at first but it became uncommon after that. You did know about it too right?" Wonwoo nodded slowly as he tried to process every information.

Seungcheol continued, "It all started when Serin came back. I'm sure you know Erin better than I am. She appreciate the friendship she had with you and Mingyu too much until the time Mingyu started to focus on Serin more than her. She wasn't an attention seeker but she only have both of you."

"But, you and her-" "Wonwoo, I'm just a new friend that she need more time to get comfortable with. It's not the same as your long friendship with her," Seungcheol stated firmly.

"Mingyu doesn't know her condition anyway so it wasn't a big deal for him to left Erin alone on the rooftop that day. I'm not blaming him because it was my fault at that time. I promised to protect her but in the end, she got hurt. Did you still remember the day she got attack? We almost lose her that day, Won."

Wonwoo's eyes widened after hearing those words from Seungcheol's mouth. "D-did you j-just said she got att-attack?" Wonwoo stuttered, make Seungcheol pat his shoulder calmly. "Mini attack of cardiac arrest. The on off fever you mentioned just now was giving a bad effect towards her body especially her brain. Don't worry, she safe now in the hand of the professionals."

Wonwoo wanted to mention about her current situation to Seungcheol but seeing his condition, Wonwoo decided not to tell him yet and not making him panic at the moment. After all, Wonwoo made a conclusion that Erin skipped her meal and so on just because of Mingyu.

*End of flashback*

"Are you saying that I'm the cause of her sickness? What are you up to, Jeon Wonwoo? You like her, don't you? That's why you came here to be her knight in shining armor and made a ruckus here," Mingyu said. He stood up and walked past Wonwoo while continued, "I forgive you for what you did to me today but let's not meet each other no more in the future. I already cut our friendship the day she came back. Mind your own bussiness, Won." He left afterwards.

Wonwoo clenched his fist in anger. "What made you changed this far, Gyu?" "Serin is back, I don't need any replacement no more. Isn't it obvious?" Mingyu chuckled and made his way out of the dorm.

"I hope we'll never meet each other from the very first place. So, I wouldn't have to fall for you and hurt you."
