As You Are (Kim Taehyung Story)

Chapter11

"Hyejin ah, is that how you greet your lover? After so long of not meeting" I swear, I want to slap his face.

"Lover? Yeah right. I have no time for your nonsense. Please leave"

"Oh, you're brave now. But you have time for this guy here" He looks at Taehyung.

"Ya, stop it. She already told you to leave. What are you waiting for? Leave!" Taehyung stood in front of  me, standing in between me and Dohyun.

"What if I don't want to? You know, I can bring you down just by touching that handsome face of yours" I became more scared hearing Dohyun's threat to Taehyung.

"I don't care. Whatever it is, I will not let you touch Hyejin anymore"

"But you wouldn't be able to protect her if those rashes of yours appears, can you? I bet not. Or should we try and see?"

I couldn't let Taehyung suffer because of me. "Just tell me what you want. But please, don't involve Taehyung in this"

"Oh, what a handsome name for the handsome man. Nothing, I just want to spend a day with you. You know, catching up. It's been long, Choi Hyejin"

I wanted to just immediately leave with him so that he won't do anything to Taehyung but just as I was about to take a step towards Dohyun, Taehyung grabbed my hands. He held it tightly, telling me not to follow Dohyun. Dohyun was staring intently at our hands.

"I'm starting to think what Jooheon said is true. That you are faking everything. Just look at you, holding her hands like it's nothing"

"Listen here, I don't care, if my rashes going to appear after this or what so ever, but, I will never allow Hyejin to be anywhere near you. Leave her alone, do you hear me?"

"T-Taehyung, it's okay. Just for today? Don't worry. I can handle him. Trust me, alright?" I assured Taehyung and I know that I have to go because if I don't, Dohyun is just going to bother us even more. I told Taehyung that I will give him a call or anything if there's anything wrong. I also reminded Taehyung to immediately eat the medicine so that he could prevent the rashes from coming on.

I then left with Dohyun. "Where are we going?"

"Let's just go to the cafe that we used to go, shall we?"

After ordering what we wanted, I didn't waste more time and quickly asked him what does he wants.

"Why are you so angry? I just want to have a lovely talk with you. I've missed you"

"Oh, save that words for yourself. Don't act like you've missed me"

"I do, I really do. Choi Hyejin... I've realised my mistake. I regretted treating you badly. I'm so so sorry"

"Don't do this to me Dohyun... Please. I don't to get hurt anymore. I've had enough"

"Give me one more chance, please? I'll make it right this time" Dohyun face was sincere.

Part of me doesnt want it but another part of me still has that feeling for him and I do actually, missed him.

Taehyung POV:

Of course I didnt just let her go with him. After few minutes after they left, I followed them. I needed to ensure that that jerk doesn't do anything to Hyejin. My hands are starting to itch but I ignored it because that isn't important at that moment. I followed them to the cafe and sat somewhere not too close to them but near enough to hear their conversation.

""I do, I really do. Choi Hyejin... I've realised my mistake. I regretted treating you badly. I'm so so sorry" Pshhhht, yeah right.

Hyejin was silent for a few moments. I'm hoping that she doesn't fall for all those lies of Dohyun's. I can't let it happen. I need to protect Hyejin. Honestly, I've never met someone as kind and caring as her. The girls back where I was, everyone of them just ran away after I told them about my condition. It may be too early to confirm my feelings for her but I know, its there and it has not stop growing. I just want to protect her but with my condition, I don't know how much can I protect her. I'm just afraid that, when I fall sick and are too weak to even get up, how am I going to protect her? I definitely don't trust this Dohyun guy.

I sat there, hoping that Hyejin doesn't fall for his words.

"Okay.. Promise me that you won't hurt me anymore?"

"WHAT?!" I accidentally shouted right after hearing what Hyejin just said.

Are you really, risking your heart again, Choi Hyejin? You are not that stupid, right?
