“Hyung . . . . hyung . . . .” Max called out.

Jaejoong and U-Know were both startled as Max hurriedly entered the room.

“Hyung . . . . “ Max said again.

“What's wrong?” Jaejoong asked worriedly.

“Hyung . . . . hurry! Lena has a fever,” Max answered.

Jaejoong hurriedly stood up and ran out of the room. He went straight to Lena's apartment.

In Lena's room . . . . he found Micky sitting beside Lena's bed.

“Hyung . . . .” Micky uttered as he saw Jaejoong enter Lena's room.

Jaejoong immediately went up to Lena. He then gently touched her cheek and then forehead. She really had a fever  . . . . and this made him very worried.

Lena slowly opened her eyes . . . . and then she tried to smile. "Don't worry . . . . it's just a little fever . . . . it will go away in a few hours . . . ." she gently said to Jaejoong as she saw the concern written all over his face.

Micky silently left the room. He knew Lena and Jaejoong needed some time alone.

Jaejoong sat down on Lena's bed . . . . Then he looked at her.

Lena smiled. "Why are you looking at me like that?" she asked.

"You're still the same . . . you always end up being sick whenever you get wet in the rain," Jaejoong uttered.

Lena uttered lightly. "I always end up getting wet in the rain . . . . whenever I'm with you . . . haven't you noticed?"

Jaejoong nodded. "You're right. Maybe . . . . I'm such a bad luck for you . . ."

"Bad luck? No . . . more like a good luck . . . You're my best friend remember?" she said sweetly.

Hearing her say those words, Jaejoong's heart suddenly jumped with joy.

Jaejoong suddenly held Lena's hand.

"Sorry . . . ." he uttered.

"For what?" she asked.

"For everything . . ." he answered.

"For everything? Like what?" she asked again.

Jaejoong just shook his head. "I just want to say sorry . . ."

"Silly . . ." she uttered.

"I was supposed to take care of you . . . But look at you now . . ." Jaejoong said sadly.

"I've already taken a medicine . . . I'll be all right in a few hours. Don't worry about me. It was all my fault. I was the one who foolishly ran out into the rain," she said as she tried to comfort Jaejoong.

Jaejoong looked at Lena again. How he wanted to hold her.

"You need to rest . . ." he softly said to Lena.

Lena just nodded and then she closed her eyes. Within minutes, she somehow had already fallen asleep.

Jaejoong looked at Lena as she slept. He gently arranged a lock of Lena's hair that had fallen out of place. She was like an angel . . . he thought.

"Somehow how I wish you didn't have to marry Daichi . . . There are a lot of things I am really sorry for . . . I'm sorry if I am still unable to decide what I am really feeling for you. And I'm also very sorry for not being able to protect you . . . and take care of you. I'm sorry . . .if I can't love you back. We live in such different worlds that I don't think we can ever fit in each other's lives. You're like a princess who deserves a prince charming . . . who will take you to a beautiful home and provide all the things that you need . . . While I am just a pauper . . . who have nothing to be proud of . . . and who have nothing to give you . . . Yes, I am famous now and have already saved some money which I can be proud of. But I know it isn't enough. I can never match up with Daichi. I can never give you the things that he can . . . I'm sorry, Lena. But I don't think we can ever work out as lovers. Maybe you are really destined to be with Daichi. . . . I admit . . . somehow it hurts me to see you with another man. But maybe it's the best. I just want you to know that I will always be by your side . . . as a friend . . ." Jaejoong softly said as he stared at Lena.
