Fresh Air (Jay Park) COMPLETED

Back

Yeri's POV

A knock comes to my door and my stupid heart skips a beat. I want it to be Jay so bad that I'm hugely disappointed when I see Jisoo instead. Why is he even here again?

"Go away," I tell him as I try to close the door in his face.

"We really need to talk," he pleads with me, but I'm already closing the door again.

Before I know it he puts his foot between the door and comes inside. I give up and throw my hands up in the air as I walk back to my bed. Sitting down feels better than standing when I'm this tired. He sits down in a chair opposite me and puts his elbows on his knees as he leans forward.

"Your aunt wants to see you", he tells me as I shake my head.

"She can call me herself to deliver that message", I try as I lean back onto my elbows.

"Yeri, come on. What else do I have to do to win you back?" he asks of and I laugh.

"Nothing, because it is not happening.."

"Is it because of Jay Park? He's a ladies man and doesn't care for you. Not the way I do.." he tries again and this time a humorous laugh escapes my mouth.

"You care about me? You do have a very funny way of showing it! When you left for America you cheated on me, not only here, but back home too! You're a bastard who is good for nothing!" The words spill out of my mouth as he leans back, hurt.

"You know I never intended to hurt you.."

"Oh, why did you do it then? At least Jay has been honest with me. He treats me with respect, not something I can say of you... Oh the irony!"

"But you're not being honest with him at all. Have you told him?"

That's the point where I've had it with him. I stand back up and toss him out of my room. "Never ever come back." Are the last words I say to him before closing the door and chapter.

My heart breaks a little as I sigh and think about it all. How could I ever have loved that person? He's manipulative and doesn't care about anyone but himself. That's not the kind of person I want to date at all. It just took me long enough to see what type of jerk he really was.

My eyelids are even heavier right now and I change my clothing to pj's. It's warm when I climb into bed and drift off to the dream world I love. The world where everything is okay.

End of the week

The day we leave is finally here. We're going back to Korea. Somehow I feel even more lost than before I came here. Jay has been very friendly, but never too close since that one day I went missing. He keeps his distance and it saddens me because I thought I'd found a good friend in him. I guess the kiss didn't mean anything more than temporary lust.

The morning of our leave he comes to pick up my luggage. He carries it as we walk beside each other. It's become very awkward between us and everyone can see it.

"Jay?" I suddenly ask him.

"Yes?"

"Is something up?"

"Nope, why would there be?" he eyes me from the side.

"It's just that you've been so distant. You've never been the one to give someone his space."

"I have a lot on my mind right now, I'm sorry. I'll try not to be as distant, okay?" he tells me and I smile encouragingly.

The ride to the airport is never quiet. Loco is so loud when he talks to Jay, they're really good friends. Simon D is in the back with me and I barely speak. He intimidates me in a way Jay never does. He is the co-founder of AOMG after all. He even gives off a boss vibe, Jay never does. But I've never seen him work with his clients either, so I have no idea how he is.
