Precious - SeongSang

41

They stared at me. "Fucken answer me, damn it."

Wooyoung pushed Yunho and Jongho away from me.

"Fucken answer me!"

"Seonghwa. Calm down." San stood up.

"I'm not going to fucken calm down. Yeosang is in there, I don't know what's going on, and nobody is telling me shit!" I grabbed Wooyoung's collar. "What happened?" I gritted my teeth.

"Yeosang was almost assaulted by his sister and her friends." I let him go.

You got to be fucking with me. I swear...

I turned around and turned the knob. It was locked.

I leaned my head on the door. "Yeosang. Please open the door." Nothing. "Sangie. Please."

The door opened and he yanked me inside. He quickly locked the door. Keeping everyone else out.

Yeosang just threw anything he got his hands on. He screamed. This is my first time seeing him like this and it scares me.

I grabbed him. He fought me to let him go. "Don't fucken touch me!" He tried to pull away. "Let me go!"

"Yeosang!"

"Shut up!"

I turned him around and kissed him. He stopped. I pulled away. "Yeosang, you need to calm down. I know she is a bitch, but destroying your own home?"

"I hate her. I fucken hate her." He sat on the bed. "She gets everything she wants, she has ruined my life, she turned my whole stupid ass family against me for years! Even when I moved out of that damn house she is still trying to ruin my life. She doesn't know when to fuck off.

Jumping me today with her stupid fucken friends! She could have hurt Wooyoung, Yunho, and Jongho!"

I sat there and listened to him talk. He let his anger out by ranting and screaming. I would take anything out of his hand when he would grab something. I did miss a couple.

He grabbed his laptop and threw it out the balcony doors.

"Yeosang!" I grabbed him as he was about to throw something else out.

He started crying. He just slumped in my arms. Sitting down on the floor with him. He would mumbled things that I was never able to catch. It would just come out and I couldn't understand him with his crying.

I patted his head and kept him close.

So many hours of him crying. When I was somehow able to calm him down. I laid him on the bed. I sat there with him. Until he fell asleep.

Walking out of the room. Everyone was sitting down on the couch. Even Hongjoong was here now.

"Where are you going?" Mingi asked.

"Is Yeosang alright?!" Wooyoung stood up.

"Can you take care of Yeosang? I have something to do."

"Uh yeah but what are you going to do?" San asked.

I didn't answer.

I felt a stare on me that was completely different from everyone else's. I turned around and it was Jongho. "Honestly... just don't get caught." He whispered to me.

"Yeah, whatever. I won't." I closed the door. Quickly making my way to the store. Buying a lighter and cigarettes.

Opening the pack and lighting one. Haven't done this in a while.

I honestly don't remember what happened. I just remember feeling so much damn anger. I could only remember going to Yeosang's family's house and just feeling hot...

Sitting on the curb in front of the house. Feeling my back hot. Smoking the last cigarette in the box. Blowing out the smoke and tossing the bud to the side. I didn't bother looking behind me at what I did. With how everything was brightly lit up around me, I knew what I did.

I got up and started walking back home.

Getting back, I threw the lighter onto the counter.

"Were you doing drugs again?" Hongjoong stood up.

"Oh, you're still here but no. Ok I did one... pack... I think."

"Did anyone die?" Jongho asked.

"We'll see on the news either later tonight or tomorrow."

He sighed but didn't say anything else.

"Has Yeosang woken up?"

"No." Yunho walked out of the room.

"Seonghwa, what did you do?" San asked.

"I thought it was obvious what he was going to do." Jongho said.

"How the hell is it obvious?"

"He went to go burn down the bitch's house. Can you not smell it?"

"Ok, we aren't as observant as you but you burned down a house?!" Hongjoong grabbed me.

"We'll see if it survives."

"You can't just go around burning shit down! You're already a fucken outlaw! You're just making yourself a bigger one!"

"You think I care? I've been doing dumb shit for years. This is just another thing to add to the list."

"What did you expect from him out of all people?" Jongho asked. Why is Jongho so weirdly calm about all this?

"Jongho. Not now." Wooyoung walked out of my room.

"I do what I want Hongjoong and you know that already. So I don't know why all of a sudden me doing dumb shit is a problem to you now."

"You could have killed people."

"It's just his family. The family that abused him and won't leave him alone." I grabbed his collar. "So fucken tell me Hongjoong. Are you just going to let them do what they want to him? You expect me to let it go?" I shoved him away. "If you really expected me to let it go then you're fucken crazy."

"Do you really expect people to stick around if you're doing this illegal stuff?"

"I don't ever remember telling you to stick around."

Hongjoong's eyes widened. "You're an asshole you know that?" He shoved me. "I did so fucken much for you! I let you move in with me! I let you do all that illegal shit!"

"Yeah? And? I did that shit for you! I started stealing for you! I helped you get that apartment for you! Because I knew your parents kicked you out! They're the assholes! Yet you keep sticking around them. I helped you get to the place you are now!

I did it all for you!

And now that it's not for you it's a bad thing! I risked so much. I completely threw my life away to help you get where you are now and when I know you no longer needed it, I'm a bad person?!"

"YOU SET A HOUSE ON FIRE!"

"I DID IT TO GET BACK AT THE ASSHOLES THAT HURT YEOSANG!"

"YOU COULD HAVE KILLED PEOPLE!"

"THEY FUCKEN DESERVED IT ANYWAY!"

"STOP IT!" Wooyoung screamed.

We all turned towards him.

"Stop arguing it isn't going to undo any of the shit that has happened. We need to make sure Yeosang is ok. If he wakes up to you two of all people fighting, it's going to make him feel even worse.

You guys are best friends. You guys did so much for each other and that's all that matters. People would be lucky to have your type of friendship. So fucken shut it."

"Wooyoung is right. You both need to calm down. Things happened already." Mingi said.

"I don't want to..." Hongjoong started.

I interrupted. "What? Don't want to be friends with an outlaw?"

"I wasn't going to say that."

I scoffed. I walked to the bedroom. I closed the door. I quickly changed. I sat on the bed. I reached over to Yeosang. I moved strands of hair out of his face. I kissed the top of his head.

I turned and stared out the balcony doors.
