Unspeakable Truth

Chapter 8 : Unpretty Rapstar

After weeks of having too much alcohol in his system and multiple motivational quotes from Henry and Amber, Jackson seem to finally managed to get back to his usual routine of writing lyrics, dance practices and dozing off of marks unsolicited nightly sessions of love counseling.

Not that he's given up his dream of being with Youngji,Henry was somehow able to convince him to better himself for youngji to see him as a man, not someone whose only talent is to braid his bestfriends hair or a designated chopstick tutor.

A collaborative stage of Jessi, Jackson and Mino were suggested by the producers of this years MAMA in Hong Kong. Everyone was down for it including Jackson. He thought of it as an opportunity to show youngji how hes far better than Mino.

They decided to write their lyrics and practice in Mino's newly purchased apartment, the one he bought using the money he won in SMTM4.

They greeted each other and started working, while youngji was busy in the kitchen all day preparing snacks.

They completed everything before dinner. They said their goodbyes, jackson and jessi head out leaving the two lovebirds alone.

Jackson realized they left their copy of the song they wrote in Minos apartment. Jessi asked jackson to go back and get the lyrics. He hit the the button on the elevator that says, "13th floor".

He whistled his way to his front door.Before he reached to buzz in he realized that the door was not locked so he turned the knob and entered. Music was playing as he removes his shoes. While untying the laces he listened attentively to the song being played. "oh its 'my destiny', that's youngji's favorite song" he whispered to himself.

He then grabbed a pair of slippers from the closet beside him and entered.

"I'm just.." he abruptly stopped. he froze from where he was standing. a sharp stab of pain hammered through his chest he could feel blood pumping through his veins as frustration squeezed into his heart and his palms are sweating like sweet drops of rain ending a drought. For the first time in weeks he could feel something. something familiar. His heart is beating and storming through his ears that he cant hear anything. Everything starts to become blurry. all he sees are white circles floating around.

In front of him is Mino and youngji standing relatively close, He is hugging her while she leans against him. her head resting perfectly on his shoulder, her arms wrapped around his waist. she's humming to the song playing, her eyes were shut. They are breathing in unison and swaying to the melody,shes standing on Minos feet, while he drags her with his every step.It felt like a dream.Like a scene cut straight from a cheesy romantic movie

Misery pressed down Jacksons lungs making it hard to breath. He felt dazed as he continuously watched.. making the room spin. He dropped the slippers he was holding . as it hits the ground it made a timid sound but loud enough for youngji to open her eyes and look towards jacksons direction meeting his gaze.

"Oh jackson" she uttered.

"i... i.... i left the lyrics we wrote, noona made me get it. i think its on the counter, i'll just grab it and be on my way, dont mind me go on with what youre doing" he smiled awkwardly, got the notes on the table near a lamp then rushed his way out.

before youngji and mino could say anything he's gone.

"no biggy wang jackson , no biggy." as he chants his way down to the parking lot he felt his hands shake. "yaaaaah, you love her that much?" he mocks himself

"shes not the only girl in Soul, jackson what are you doing,there are limits on when you can act dumb, you're already on the edge" he let out a deep sigh and laughed softly at how timing is not always on his side.

He walked straight to Jessis parked car. "noona lets go" he raised the paper he's holding showing jessi he got what they needed. Jessi nodded "okay lets go" and drove away.
