Ch.23
I wiped my tears and got out of the car.
"Stop crying" Yongguk said and took out our things. "You look ugly when you cry"
I nodded and took my bag. The house he bought was different than the one in Korea. This one was smaller and simpler. I waited for him to open the door.
"Can I know why you're crying?" He asked as we walked in. I ignored him and put my bag on the couch.
"Do we share a room?"
"You can sleep in a quest room if you're uncomfotable" He said and carried our things. I followed quietly behind him. He was nice to me since we left Korea. He kept on asking me why I'm crying and stuff. It was weird for me because I thought he would ignore me the whole time.
"We can unpack our things later. Its 7AM,we have a whole day"
"I'll go to take a rest" I said and walked out. I found a quest room and laid on the bed. I felt cold so I covered myself with a blanket. I put my phone aside,but then it rang.
"Yoboseyo?" I answered without looking at who it was.
"Lee Na"
"What do you want?" I asked as anger built inside me.
"Where are you? We need to talk,I-"
"Kihyun,shut up" I cut him off. "I don't know whats going on and I don't care. Stop talking to me"
"I had to pretend,I-" I hung up and threw the phone somewhere in the room. I wasn't in a mood to talk with him. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
**
My phone kept ringing,waking me up. I took it and picked up,still feeling sleepy.
"Yoboseyo?"
"Hey Lee Na" It was my mom.
"What?" I snapped.
"I can't reach Yongguk. Is he there now? Can I talk to him?"
"I don't know" I said and hung up. I stood up and went to the kitchen,but it was empty. I found a small note and read it out loud.
I won't be home until 10. I bought food so you can make yourself a breakfast.
Yongguk
I sighed and threw it in the trash. At least he remembered to buy food. I make myself a breakfast and sat on the table. If only Kihyun was there to eat with me. I smiled remembering how I used to make him breakfast every morning. I knew he liked my cooking,but he never wanted to admit it.
I spent the whole day unpacking our stuff. Yes,our. I unpacked Yongguk's things too. I was bored and I wanted to do it for him. Around 10pm,he came back.
"Hey" I greeted.
"Hey" He said as he took off his shoes."Sorry I left you alone the whole day"
"Its okay" I said awkwardly. We were having a normal conversation. I wasn't used to that.
"Did you make dinner?"
"Yeah" I nodded."I already ate"
"Okay,I'll go to eat" I nodded as he walked into the kitchen. I went to our room and took something from the closet. I sat on the bed and stared at it.
While unpacking Yongguk's luggage earlier that day,I found drugs. I had a feeling like that was the reason of his bad behaviour. If I knew about it earlier,I wouldn't be so harsh and cold to him. I quickly hid it under my pillow when I heard his footsteps.
"Lee Na?" He called and opened the door.
"Yeah?"
"Thanks" He said with a small smile.
"For what?" I asked suprised.
"For everything"
**
It was weird. During the whole week,he was nice to me. I didn't see him taking drugs at all, I was with him the whole time. I tried not to look suspicious in front of him. We talked normaly,without yelling at each other or anything else. He would go to work and buy food while coming back. I wanted to know why did he have those drugs and for how long he was taking them,but I was too scared. I didn't want to ruin his mood because he seemed happy.
Kihyun... I didn't know what happened to him. He didn't call me or text me. I tried calling him few times,but it was no use. I wasn't mad because of what happened in the plane. I missed him a lot and I wanted to see him,but it seemed like he forgot me.
"I'm going to work. Is there anything you want for dinner?" Yongguk asked while putting on his shoes.
"Pizza" I said and smiled innocently at him. Its funny how relaxed I felt with him.
"Okay" He laughed.
"Can I go outside later?" I asked.
"Sure,just don't forget to put on your jacket,its cold. I'm going" He said and walked out while smiling at me. I still felt like I should ask for his permission,I didn't want the same things to happen. I went to the bathroom and looked at myself. My face looked better than before,my wounds were almost healed. I brushed my hair and prepared myself. I put on my jacket,like he said and walked out.
I walked down the street while looking around,somehow hoping to see Kihyun. How could he just disappear? I took my phone and dialed his number as I sat on the bench. Was he mad at me or something? I was about to hang up when someone answered.
"Yoboseyo?" A femalo voice said.
"Who are you? Where's Kihyun?" I asked shocked.
"Kihyunie! Someone is looking for you" She said sweetly.
"Really? Thanks" I heard his voice,making my heart beat faster. "Yoboseyo?"
"K-Kihyun?" I called shakily.
"Lee Na?" I could hear how suprised he was."Is it really you?"
"Who is sh-"
"Kihyun,can you hurry up? We need to go" That girl cut me off.
"I'm sorry,I have to go" He said and hung up. My phone fell as tears rolled down my cheeks.
