Minchan: Fighting The Storms With You

20

Minho didn't came the next day. I was angry. The whole thing was pretty messed up but I knew Minho must have had his reason. Maybe there was a story he didn't tell anyone. I knew he would never leave someone to suffer. Or even if he did, there must have been a reason.

  So I was angry at Seungmin for being so selfish. On the other hand, I couldn't really blame him either.

So yeah...the whole was fucking messed up.

Our sports season had started from that day. So all the sections were practicing together. And I found Seungmin and couldn't stop my urge to scold him a little.

I went near him and dragged him by his hand to the side.

"You don't have to be this mean to Minho." I said.

He was surprised that I dragged him away from his friends.

"Dude...stay away from...it's none of your business." He said in a corny voice.

"Minho is absent today... He had been so healthy for last few days..."

"Bro it's your fault...you should know that...I said what I said because you pushed us..." He chuckled as he saw my guilty expression.

I looked down.

"He already has a fucked up life...and ...and he said you are his best friend..."

"Well...it's his fault for being a fucking coward."

"You weren't there..."

"What?"

"You weren't there...maybe he didn't have a choice."

"Why the fuck didn't he testify then? If he became the witness, that monster would be behind the bars at this moment."

"I don't know...did you ever asked him?"

He remained silent.

"I know that he is always trying to talk to you...why is he trying so hard? He wouldn't tell me or Han a word. He just wants to talk to you...did you ever give him that option."

"No matter what he says...I will never forgive him."

"Then why do I get this feeling that you still care for him?"

"..... you know what...just stay away from me ...why are you meddling so much?"

"I don't know...maybe because I am in love with him."

I said it. I SAID IT. For the first time, I accepted the truth that I was, in fact, in love with Minho. I loved him. And I wanted to see him happy. I wanted to make him happy.

"What?" Seungmin looked surprised.

"I want him to be happy. My brain says I should keep him away from you...but he said that you were the shoulder he could lean on. Maybe you still are... Don't you think you are being too harsh?"

"..."

"I don't even know all the things that he went through...but I know he is living in hell...but still he had this beautiful smile... And when he listens to music he looks so calm and beautiful... I heard that he even used to dance...I wonder how he looked while dancing..."

"Ethereal...he looked ethereal while dancing...I took lessons with him... No matter how much I tried, I never reached his level... The way he moved his body...was just majestic..."

I looked at Seungmin with surprise.

"But it's hard for me too.... I can't listen to him...I cannot forgive him................not yet" he continued.

After that Seungmin left.

"Wait ..did I just confessed my love for Minho to my biggest rival before even confessing to Minho?.....??...???.!!??... Aaaaaaaaaaaa.... what's wrong with me?"
