 TRUTH BENEATH 
THE LIES

❝why do you keep getting far from me? 
stay by my side, hold my hand
if you love me.❞

—hyorin, crazy of you.

"you know," she breathed out heavily, pushing her hair to the back in frustration, "I thought you'd be different." her words pierced through my heart and it stung me even when the day came to an end.

I watched as she walked away from my sight with the others as I listened to her footsteps slowly getting silent. I raised my head and stared at the ceiling for a couple of minutes until I heard chohee's door was opened by her doctor.

did hyemi really thought I was cheating? all I did was giving a hug to someone who was dying. she didn't even allow me to speak—simply she just slapped and left, as if she didn't cheat on me with that son of a bitch?

I tried dialling for her number while I entered chohee's room quietly. every each time I was sent to voicemail, I could feel my heart beating fast with the heat inside my body reaching the top of my head. "answer the damn phone—"

"miss choi, I don't think I can proceed anymore." I narrowed my eyes once I heard what the doctor confessed, I stepped a little closer but not close enough for them to see me. "I am sorry but this is wrong—"

"I paid you more than enough, Dr.Kim! you can't just drop everything after the amount of money I gave you."

I heard him sighing in distress, "I know but the young man isn't going to love you by faking about your cancer—" he sighed once more, but even louder, "I am busy doctor, and I have no time to fake your radiotherapy and chemotherapy."

she laughed wickedly, "how did you get your doctorate degree, Dr. Kim?" I could hear the bed creaked as she got up from the bed and stood in front of the doctor. "I paid you that much, to cover all the busy shits your doing to take care of my motherfucking cancer."

eavesdropping this leech's interesting yet so exasperating scheme made me furious but I was so amazed of how disrespectful of her to the doctor, and I was even more astounded that the doctor didn't even fight back his rights as a doctor and as someone who is older than her.

I clasped my hands together and applauded as I exposed myself to both of them. "what a drama," I said with an amused smile plastered on my face. the shocked on her face made me want to laugh but I could feel my heart burning that I wanted to punch the wall so badly.

"jungkook—"

"am I a fucking joke to you?"

I looked at the doctor who had his head hung low, "it's not what you think it is!" then, I looked at the woman who I thought was dying from her diagnosis. "this is all an act—" I let out a loud laugh that cut her off immediately.

my laugh got louder when I saw tears running down her eyes—I didn't even know if she was faking her cry or not but she amazed me so much that I could only laugh. "I heard enough. I heard exactly what I should know."

"I can explain!"

I shook my head vigorously, "there's no need for more explanation, chohee. I'm sorry doctor, you can go out now," I instructed to the doctor and he left quickly with a loud bang from the door.
