Yesung dropped the knife in surprise. It fell with a clatter onto the stone bridge.

"Don't pick it up."

Yesung turned around. His heart was beating too fast, and his breathing was ragged, beads of sweat formed on his face as he began to panic. Who the hell was this?

He turned around, fearing the worst.

And maybe under different circumstances, he should've been scared. But in this circumstance, this person suddenly seemed safe.

There, a small distance behind him, stood the man with either the most handsome face or the most annoying face ever. Now that Yesung thought about it, he may have also been the person who sort of introduced Kyuhyun and Ryeowook.

Kim Jaejoong.

"Jaejoong," Yesung breathed, he suddenly felt relieved, at least it wasn't a rapist or something.

In a few quick strides, Jaejoong was standing right beside Yesung. Without a word, he bent down to retrieve his school mate's pocket knife.

"What are you doing?" Yesung asked curiously. Another thought occurred to him ... Jaejoong wasn't going to stab him, was he? Jaejoong, like Kyuhyun had once been, was known to be ruthless, but would Jaejoong really go this far?

I'm being paranoid, Yesung told himself, but he was still breathing heavily.

Yesung watched carefully as Jaejoong spun the blade in his hands a few times, examining it carefully - and then tossed it carelessly down into the Han River.

Yesung's mouth dropped open in disbelief as he watched the knife sailing and turning in the air below the bridge, going into the river.

It fell into the water with a loud splash, and then sank beneath the waves.

"What the fuck did you just do?" Yesung asked hotly, his temper rising.

"I just helped you, you stupid little bastard. Wow, I do bad things, people swear at me, I do good things, people also swear at me!" Jaejoong rolled his eyes sarcastically, "I just don't get it!"

"You threw my pocket knife into the river!"

"I realize," Jaejoong said calmly, he leaned again the bridge and took out a nail filer - and then began to file his nails.

"You file your nails?" Yesung asked, his face scrunching up.

"Gotta look good for the ladies," Jaejoong shrugged.

Yesung gagged, "Yeah right, now can you buy me a new pocket knife?"

Jaejoong didn't even look up from his nails, "Nope," he said simply.

"But - but - "

"You want me to buy you a new one so you can hurt yourself again?"

Yesung had no answer for this.

"I wanna apologize," Jaejoong said casually.

Yesung straightened his back, "About?" he asked.

"I guess if I never told Kyuhyun about Ryeowook they would never be together, huh?"

"I guess ... "

"So in a way it's kinda my fault you and Ryeowook aren't together anymore and my fault that you tried to self harm, right? Because you nearly self harmed because of a situation that I kind of created."

Yesung marvelled at how that boy could really see things like that.

"So I'm sorry," Jaejoong concluded, "I made you self harm, so I had to stop you. Because I told Kyu about Ryeowook, I lost my best friend too."
