[Got7Fan Fiction]The healer

Chapter 3: My girlfriend?

The doctor comes into my room in surprise. 'What the...' He murmurs.

'Excuse me? What's the prob sir?' I ask.

'Oh nothing, it's just, how come you recover so fast... It's impossible... Any way, it's a good news, kind of scary though. But you just had an operation on your broken leg and also your chest. So stay still on bed until you are ready for Physiotherapy, OK?' He then turns around and starts to write all the things down on the board.

I look at my legs, wondering can I actually move them now. Hey I'm a reborned human! Why can't I? I think. So I stand up and miraculously it doesn't hurt at all. It seems like I am even better than before. Stronger bones and tender muscles.

The doctor turns around and drops the board in amazement.

'Well... I don't even need physiotherapy.' I smile and say,

I take a sip of water, walk pass the doctor and prepare to leave. I need to go find Annaliese and Jackson.

'Oh! The fee...  I'll return them later on.' I say.

I rush to Jackson's place first, as Aanalese may be there too. 'Jackson!!! It's me! Open the door! Please!' I yell.

The door opens slowly with the familiar creaking sound and there he is. Tears streaming down his face but smiling to me at the same time.

'Oh my god! Bamm! Man you made it! I know you will!' He exclaimed.

I smile back to him and feel pleased. His wounds are better now and he looks better, although he is hiding away his fear and worries from me. But he doesn't know about it, that I reborned as a protector. I have the responsibility to protect him and Annaliese from these memories. At least, this is the only way for me to say sorry to them for my dad.

I take him to the bench under the green willow and tell him to close his eyes.
I remember those times when I am sad, how dad used to do. He always put both hands on my head, asking me to close my eyes and to recall that memories in mind. He said that we had a telepathy system in our minds so although I only recalled it in my mind, he could still know about it.

At that time, I think it's nothing special and he's just making some funny gags and jokes to comfort me. But now I find out that it's not true though. Every time dad did that, I seemed to have forgotten those bad memories. And ya I did forget them, as dad took them away.

'What happened? Tell me honestly, from the beginning until you see me. Everything.' I demanded.

'It's so complicated, Mark. It's fine now, as long as you are back, as long as you won't become your dad, then everything will be fine.' He said calmly.

'No! Tell me! Stop protecting me in that way! I should be the one protecting you but not you! So tell me! At least I can feel better if you tell me as I can repay what dad have done to you!'

I stop and catch my breath. I hate that Jackson is always trying to hide away his bad feelings. It feels like I can't help him even though we are best best friends.

'Just come on, tell me. If you still treat me as the best buddy, still think that we are close like brothers, tell me. Cuz buddies are meant to share everything between them. No lies and no secrets.' I said.

I lied actually. Although we are best buddies, I didn't tell him that I was stabbed in the chest, I didn't tell him that I am a protector like my father now. And maybe, just probably I will do what dad have done. I don't know too.

'OK.. Man. I will tell you about it. Everything.' He sighed and said.

'Thanks. I'm ready.' I replied.

I am ready, probably... I tell myself.

'It happens so fast, just in one night. That afternoon, I tend to go to your house to find Annaliese to have dinner together with you. But when I arrived your house, I saw your dad fighting against your mom. He is beating and hitting her so hard! I am scared! I hid myself at the gate of your house. Your mom is shouting at your dad. She said something like... I will take those memories from you! Calm down! I don't know what that means. I am too scared I didn't know what to do! I tend to stop your dad from hurting your mom. But I was too late. Your... Your dad picked up the knife, and... Mark.. I should have saved your mom. If not, you mother would still be here now, your mom would not die!'

He bursts into tears. Same as me. I remembered how I saw my mum lying on the floor. It all became like this because of... My dad. I never imagined that Jackson had seen all of this. If that was me... I would not be able to get over it. I rather commit suicide than to live.

'It's ok... Just continue Jackson. What happened next? I asked.

'I was too frightened at that time. I... I tried to call you for help but u didn't answer. Then your mom kneeled down and... And died... I immediately called Annnaliese, hoping that she went to tutorial school and was not at home. But then, I saw her running out from the house, asking her mother why did she scream. And she... She saw everything too. She saw your dad holding the knife, and your mom seriously hurt and covering her bloody wound. She could not believe it. She knelt down beside your mom. Tears were streaming down her face while she tried to wake your mom up. But then, your dad turned to Annaliese. He... He picked her up by her shirt and threw her aside, and stabbed your mother once again. Annaliese screamed and yelled for help. She was so afraid that she couldn't even stand up straight. She shivered and tried to run for her life. But then your dad turned to her and she became his next target. I.. I didn't want to see anyone more dying right in front of my eyes, just because I didn't have the courage to save them. So I rushed towards your dad, hit his hand to make sure he drop his knife. And then, I yell at Annaliese to tell her to run, just like how you did to me. She left luckily. But then Hyo-Rin arrived and...'

'Wait, who's Hyo-rin? Why's she here? You said before that she was kidnapped too,right? Who is she?'I asked.

'Hyo-Rin! Who do you think Hyo-Rin will be? Your girlfriend! Dude!'
