A MAN TO HEAL

chapter thirty one

POV Jimin

I glance at my watch, I can't believe that I'm waiting for this man in his neighborhood like a damn stalker

But, what can I say? I'm gonna do anything for Suki

It's a relief when I finally notice a car parking at what is supposed to be his parking lot

I get out of my car and cross the street to make it to his front yard

He stops when he sees me with a frown

Well, I gotta say...Suki set that bar very high for me to reach cause...is that really her boyfriend?

Pure Italian looking man built like a twelve floors building?

I clear my throat

" Good evening, are you Mr Mancini? " I ask, my tone blank

Well, I don't like this guy

He looks way too...better than me

" And you are? " He asks me back with an eyebrow lift

" Park Jimin, I would like to have a talk "

" Excuse me, but who are you? I don't know any Park Jimin and why would I have a talk with you? " He says, closing his car door

" It's about Suki " I say, ignoring everything he just said

His eyes lightens with surprise and questions  at the same time

" What? What about Suki? Are you a family member? Did she pass out again? An other panic episode? " He asks, worried

My eyes widen, surprised

" Suki had a panic episode? She passed out? When? How? " I retort as worried as he is

We both look at each other

" What is going on? " We both say in unison

I pass a nervous hand through my hair, the thought of knowing that Suki wasn't doing well just makes me lose my sanity

" Listen, I don't know who you are but..." He begins

" I need your help for something, it's very important, it's about Suki's safety " I cut him off

He looks at me with a frown, questioning

His silence is so long that I thought time has stopped but he finally nods

" Just a few minutes "

" Thank you " I respond as I follow him

As he receives me inside his living room, I can't help but think about Suki, does she come to visit him often, do they do it in these rooms? Does she sleep often in his house? Did he take her here, on that sofa that I'm taking a seat on?

These thoughts piss me off, I'm enraged

Knowing that this man is probably doing the most unholy things that I wish I could do to her rises my blood pressure

I need to calm down and focus on the main reason why I'm here and not the childishness that is going on inside my brain

But I can't help it, everything about this man annoys me just cause he is simply dating the woman I fancy

And this pisses me off that I can't even call him ugly

Suki really didn't want to make the things easy for me

" A drink? " He asks, probably only out of politeness

I shake my head negatively

" I'm fine, thank you "
