One Way Or Another | Sansang

- Left for dead -

"Dami..."

Was all that yeosang could repeat, their eyes locked onto each other's as yeosang couldn't believe his eyes. He thought she was dead, gone or just left him behind to deal with San. But could he really blame her? San was going insane and yeosang wouldn't wanted anyone else deal with his problems. Dami looked completely different, wearing an thick long sleeve shirt in the middle of the hot sizzling day. Her hair was even shorter than before, an slight scar was on her life cheek. Her knuckles bruised. His mind tried processing if he was seeing her or just imagining things since lately that's all he has been with... some certain things. "You're alive?" He finally spoke, his eyes tracing every part of Dami's frame. Taking in the shock and weird emotions he was feeling...

"You are too?" Dami asked, slight fear and confusion could be heard in her tone. "You look so..." Yeosang trailed off as he took an small step closer to Dami, "Different? Yeah I know." She finished for him; she snickers, fixing her sleeve. "You look like you went through hell." Yeosang sighs, his gaze tracing down to the floor before looking up at her. "I did..." Then an awkward silence filled the room and hallway, the two held eye contact before yeosang spoke up, "Dami... where did you go when I needed you?" Dami rolled her eyes, maybe she was showing an sign she wasn't in the mood, basically not in the mood for anything. "Look yeosang, I don't wanna talk about it."
That reply did hurt him just an bit, like she didn't care he was in danger. "Why not? I want to know some much.. you left me and I tried contacting you yet you never replied. It's like you didn't care at all about me or my safety." 

Dami snapped her head towards him, all of her attention was now on him as she pointed her finger. "Listen here, yeosang! Don't you see how fucked up I am?! Hongjoong and Seonghwa went after me just so San could find you and get you, I tried my hardest to get there! All you care about is your safety and no one else's. I could of died too, Yeosang.. don't you see how bad I look? i put up such an fight, and when they knew they couldn't tackle me down, they drugged me." Dami was somewhat lashing out on him yet expressing her true feelings, was Dami actually telling the truth or not? Things like this made it hard for yeosang to believe anything. But those two names ringed an bell... Hongjoong and Seonghwa those two were San's helpers.. now he knew exactly who else should be caught. Yeosang took in Dami's form again, before looking at himself. Although his wounds were taken care of and he was in an better fit than his own ripped clothes. He could still feel the trauma he was put through. 

Yeosang looked down at his hand, the one that was wrapped due to cutting himself on accident when he broke something; he could still feel San's presence when looking at it, since San was there when it happened. Anywhere he goes, feels he could always feel San was there.. especially right now at this moment. "Dami I..." He couldn't process much to say but that would explain a lot, it would've of been impossible for her to try and continue coming back for him especially if those two had her in their grip. Even if she would've of woken up, and tried to get there on her own two feet it would've of been impossible.. was yeosang being selfish? Maybe the police shown up because of her.. He thought hard about it, but it was hard to decide if he could trust her. But since she was still alive and in the worst state like him, he believed her without any hesitation now. "I'm sorry Dami.. I didn't think about that, I'm so glad you're alive still though." 

"You're acting as if you actually care."

Yeosang's eyes widened at Dami's words, he reaches out towards her. "Wait Dami, I really do-" Dami's eyes slightly narrowed at him, therefore she moved out of his reach. "Look, yeo... I can believe you for now. But I don't need San coming up here and ruining everything we got here." Yeosang's eyebrows furrow in confusion, was Dami now switching up on him? 
"It's like wherever you go, he follows and ends up destroying everything in his path. He doesn't care who it is.. just like with wooyoung, he didn't care one bit because it made it easier for him to finally get a hold of you." The words she spoke struck yeosang's heart like being jabbed with an huge sharp knife. But he couldn't lie, or shake it off.. it was like she was speaking facts. As if yeosang was an cursed object due to San. He frowns, taking his arm back to himself. "I'm sorry Dami, I just wanted to be free and away from him.." "Who even allowed you to come here?" Yeosang hesitated to speak, "Jiu.. she saved me. She saw me on the side of the road and-" Dami cut him off, raising her hand up gently. "Now see, that tells me San is around here." 

Yeosang couldn't help but feel sadness fill up inside of him, he hated his own life now. 

"You don't even belong here, yeo. You're causing danger to everyone here."

Yeosang was about to speak until Dami let out an gasp, seeing Jiu standing with her arms crossed; an small frown plastered across her face. "Deedee.. what has gotten into you?" yeosang remained silent, his eyes began to water up. He thought Dami and him would make it work out but sadly not. He couldn't believe his ears and neither could Jiu... all of this hit him hard. "Don't believe him because of San's actions, all he wants is safety." Jiu spoke, her voice soft and gentle as she made her way pass yeosang to give him an hug, "He belongs here." Dami stayed silent, her eyes were emotionless, she parted her lips to speak but nothing came out. Therefore, an soft laugh left her mouth, "You are going to regret that once San shows up here." with that Dami left the two alone, heading downstairs since it was time to eat. 

"What has gotten into her?" Jiu sighs, mumbling to herself before letting go of yeosang; giving him an reassuring smile, "Just ignore her.. she's been through some things, she doesn't know you personally. She can't just blame you, but I'm here for you and so are the others."

If only you knew Jiu, if only you knew...

"Let's go eat," Jiu suggested. "I want to make sure you feel better tomorrow morning! I have a lot of plans for us." Yeosang smiles, the tears in his eyes disappearing almost fast due to his mood change. "Yeah, that sounds good." Jiu laughs softly, smiling brightly as she claps her hands together, "Great! Let's go!" She took yeosang's hand into hers, rushing downstairs with the other.. yeosang shown signs of happiness but due to all those words.. His mind was like an minefield, explosive and unaware of what to do and believe. Yeosang was now constantly thinking about to run away so no one else but himself gets hurt..
