kimberly's point of view

11:30 pm and i'm still stuck with paperworks. argh, it gets tiring you know. eveyrday, lots of contracts and papers are to be signed. i can't imagine i survived a year doing all of these. it gets to the point where there are urgent meetings that i need to attend to even if i'm on vacation. i don't think i'll last longer.

i was in the middle of reading a certain paper which caught my attention (because i don't really pay attention to what the contracts and etc were stating i just sign it off completely) when my phone suddenly rang.

"yeoboseyo?"

"kimberly-ah. i miss you already,"

"pabo-ya. you know there's still a lot of things to do here. i miss you too but i'm afraid i'll be extending here for three hours more. mianhae jagi,"

"aish, no jagi. i'm sending jonghyuk ahjussi there to fetch you. it's getting late and i bet you're the only one left there. just continue all of that tomorrow. for now, go home and spend more time with me. got it? no complains arasseo?"

"aish. yes, jagi,"

"good. saranghae~ take care okay?"

"ne, nado saranghae~"

i replied before completely hanging up. i don't know why but i kind of like him acting like that. but whatever, i'm going to fix my things since jonghyuk ahjussi will be here any minute now.

minutes passed and i already heard a beep sound. alright. ahjussi's here. so fast hey?

i took my things and left the building.

"kimberly-ssi. why are you still at the office this late? a good thing that i was still awake when master asked me to fetch you," jonghyuk ahjussi said.

"mianhae ahjussi. it's just that, there are a lot of things to do amd i thought of finishing atleast a bit of it so there's less work to do tomorrow. sorry to disturb," i apologized.

"aish gwaenchanha kim-ssi,"

our conversation ended and i just focused on the streets to be seen through the window. its late alright.

my phone suddenly buzzed. i reached for it and saw a message.

from: jagiya 😍💓

take care jagi. love you always xx

sent 11:56 pm

i smiled. he never fails to make me smile. even in the most unexpected moments. i was busy thinking of something when i ahjussi stepped on the break.

"oh shxt," i heard ahjussi cursed.

"eh? wae ahjussi? is there a problem?" i asked.

"i think we bumped something," he cried.

"oh no,"

i looked out the window to see a glimpse of the object hitten. but there were limited space for me to actually look at it. i opened the car door and went out.

i saw a bike near the tires. so it means, we really bumped into something? worse, to someone? oh please.

i went near the bike only to see a helpless boy laying unconscious near his bike. i didn't really noticed his face since he was wearing a beanie but, holy bag of popcorns!

"sheesh, ahjussi! help! let's take him to the nearest hospital, ppali!" i panicked.

he didn't respond but instead help me carrying him into the car and taking him to the hospital. oh god i won't forgive myself. i've experienced all of this before and i'm not letting it happen to an innocent person just because of my stupidity again.

[ time skip ]

it's already 12:36 and we're still here waiting for the results. the doctor said he injured his left arm but will be fine after atleast 2 days. and i still haven't texted jimin, i bet he's worrying too much now. well, is it my fault that i didn't noticed my phone's battery and forgot to hactually bring my charger? holy cow i am one of a kind when it comes to stupidity.

and no, it wasn't a little boy after all. aish, i just didn't saw him clearly because it's obviously midnight and do you expect me to see things clearly in this kind of time?

what's more surprising is, it's not an ordinary boy. he was, something special to me before. how the hell did our worlds meet in an unexpected time of my life? many questions are raging in my head that needs to be answered, but not this time. someday, maybe.

"doctor min, how is the patient?"

"he's okay, for now. and since we discovered that he had leukemia before, i must say that this could affect his condition. i know he had a minor injury, but some of the affected parts are connected to the veins that caused his leukemia. so there are possibilities that he may wake up 2-3 days from now. if you really don't mind me asking, are you the girlfriend of the patient?"

no, i'm not anymore.

"ah, mianhae for asking. it just suddenly came across my mind. my apologies. if you'll excuse me," he cleared his throat and went away. i entered his room and looked at him. i know it's wrong, but i went towards him and hugged him tight. i missed him so much.

"kim-ssi, master is calling and he said he wants to talk to you since you weren't answering his calls on your phone,"

"jagiya why aren't you answering my calls? did you know how worried i was since it's past twelve and you're still not home like, how do you expect me to not worry?! aish! ahjussi already said that you're at the hospital. go home immediately after ahjussi pays the bills okay?! aish, you made me worry so bad jagi. i'll wait for you, you better go home afterwards or else,"

there he is, scolding me more than how my mom scolds me.

"ne, mianhae jagi. i'm just really concerned with him. sorry, i have to hang up. i'll be home soon," i said before hanging up.

minutes passed and ahjussi entered the room.

"his hospital bills are already payed. let's go now kim-ssi,"

"ne, ahjussi. i'll go after you,"

i slid a small piece of paper in the pocket of his jeans. i held his hand and said "i'll miss you jungkook," and took my last glance.

but before i could remove my hand, i felt his grip tightening over mine.

"s-stay..."
