It's Okay || Enhypen's Jake

“ You should apologize to Haewon . ”

“ Yeonjun , come back when you accidently snapped on the person you should've avoided in the first place . ”

It was a week ago , when they were having a dinner , or you can call it Haewon's welcoming party . It was clearly awkward for Jaeyun since he had left Haewon at the cemetery few hours before , then came the news of them having dinner together .

Haewon wasn't that type to take actions personally , so she tried her best to make things comfortable between the two of them . But Jaeyun chose to either ignore or walk away from her .

The two voluteered to clean up after dinner . Well , it was Jaeyun who had first volunteered , followed by Haewon . She's like a puppy , following Jaeyun around while cleaning . Not that Jaeyun like her behaving such way , it just didn't felt right for him to have her around .

“ Leave me alone , Haewon ! ” he snapped .

Not only her , everyone in the room was shocked to hear Jake being angry . Haewon accidently dropped the plates out of dissapointment and  shattered right infront of her feet . Taehyun rushed to his sister's rescue , calling her name to snap her out of her daze . She heard him , but forgot that about the shattered plates . Haewon moved her feet to turn towards Taehyun direction and got them pierced .

It was an accident but still , she got her feet wounded because of him .

“ Haewon..... ”

Jake tried to reach out for her , but Haewon backed away instead .

“ It's okay . I'm fine . ” she said before walking away from the kitchen , bloods trailed after her injuries .

The others can't say that they're disspointed , but they were . Only Juhee was brave enough to speak up and judge Jaeyun for what he did . She later then found out that the others stayed quiet because they didn't want to make the worse out of his situation. 

A week went by and they heard nothing from Haewon . Even Taehyun has no idea what she's been up to since she left right after going to the hospital , but it was normal for him since his sister would dissapear out of nowhere most of the time .

“ No news on Haewon yet ? ” asked Subin , who's obviously worried about her .

Sunghoon had to consistently convince Subin that Haewon is fine and she's still alive somewhere . They just have to wait until she's ready to come back .

“ You guys don't have to worry about her . She was absent when I was a kid but still came back for me and Heeseung , so what makes you guys think that she won't come back ? ”

It might be his coping mechanism , but his words really did something to them .

They're terrified of him .

“ Taehyun , that's your sister . ”

“ And I have abandonment issue because of her but let's turn it into a joke , shall we ? Don't worry , I love her more than anything else in the world . ”

They just knew that Heeseung would smack the hell out of him if he ever hear that .

“ When she's back , I want Jaeyun to apologize . ” said Juhee , while pointing her finger towards Jaeyun .

Hueningkai gave her a stern look , putting it down because even so , it's disrespectful to point fingers on anyone .

“ What ? Am I wrong ? He's the reason why Haewon left in the first place . I really don't understand why he's here with us . He's a mur— ”

“ Nam Juhee ! ” Hueningkai raised his voice .

It was the first time Hueningkai has ever raised his voice . He's mostly an observer and just quiet to anyone's liking .

The first time his voice ever raised , not to anyone else but Juhee .

THE Juhee .

“ Kamal— ” Subin called but Sunghoon burried her head into his chest instead , because it might add more flame into the fire .

“ It doesn't matter who he was in the past , Nam Juhee . People make mistakes , so did you , so did all of us . If you want to talk about him being a murderer , why don't you mention Sunghoon too ? He was under Jaeyun , he was the leader , but why did you left him out ? What about Subin ? She's a mind manipulator , why didn't you mention her ? To you , it's always Jaeyun this and Jaeyun that . What about the others that we should've hold accountable for their actions ? ”

“ Subin and Sunghoon were never bad ! ” she defended .

“ Really ? They're not bad ? Can you tell that to those who lost their lives because of them ? Can you tell that to people who had suffered because of them ? Guess what ? You can't ! Can't you see that Jaeyun is trying so hard to change ? Can't you see the guilt in his eyes ? You can't , why ? Because people like you only see the worst in him . You guys might be blind but let me explain this , he pushed her away because he can't even look at her in the face . How could he when he was the mastermind . ”

The others went silent because he was right . When you're blinded by hatreds , there's nothing in this world matters more than guilt-tripping the one behind all .

“ He killed Heeseung ! ”

“ Oh , you want to talk about that now ? Well , Nam Juhee . Heeseung died because of us . All of us here , played a part in his death . You're so worked up on this matter when even Taehyun supports him , even Taehyun is rooting for him to live a better life . You wanted to shit on him so much , so let me say this to you , to everyone . You killed Heeseung , I killed Heeseung , everyone here killed Heeseung . He's dead because of us , so don't give me bullshit anymore . I'm tired of you behaving this way . ”

He knew that his words would hurt her feelings , but if they could stop her from behaving such way towards Jaeyun , he would do more .

“ That's enough , Kai . ” told Jaeyun before walking out of the cafe .

He went to visit Heeseung as usual but he's desperate to stay by Heeseung's side for the day . Even from afar , he could be seen hugging his knees while burrying his head in them .

He was crying .

“ What should I do ? Hueningkai and Juhee might end their relationship because of me , Hee . I don't want that to happen .  ”

He should've left in the first place .

He shouldn't have stayed .

“ Jaeyun ? ”
