Jong kOok feels a bit lost.
He doesn't even know why he did that to Ji Hyo. It just sounds like the right thing to do.
Her absence in the hospital yesterday made him realize that he has been getting attached to her even if he isn't supposed to be.
He was feeling upset that she chose the club again over going to the hospital, but then realized that he has no right to feel like that.
She has the right to do anything she wants, and he seems to be oinning her down with his family matters.
His mother makes it sound worse. She looked for her yesterday when he came alone. And now she also looked for her, asking where is that stubborn girl again.
He used to think that he and Ji Hyo has a special bond. As if they had made a mental agreement to always be there for each other in times of need.
But then, as he realizes how dear Ji Hyo is to other people, too, he realizes how ordinary that certain bond is.
She has this some kind of charm that attracts people.
Their group of friends, jOng Han, his mother, and even him.. They all look for her whenever she is not around.
It seems like she has this spell that makes people always think of her when she's not around.
And that is exactly the effect that Jong Kook is having.
He has to stop before it gets worst.
He has stop being upset whenever he sees her with Gary or Joong Ki.
He must've been truly insane to feel like that.
But as soon as he slumps in the couch, he immediately regretts what he just did.
He should have walked her hoke before doing that. What if something bad happens to her in the road?
No. She's gonna be find, stupid, he scolds himself.
She might run into a gang of guys who will find her pretty.
What?!, he asks as he sits bolt upright, staring at nothing and conversing with himself.
Yes, pretty., his subconscious seems to answer.
He closes his eyes tight and rubs his fave with his palms to get homself together.
But his mind can't stop worrying.
Unable to resist, he gives himself the satisfaction of at least looking out the window to see if she had gone.
He stands up and heads to the window, opening it.
Dusk has fallen, and the sky is going gray.
Streetlight begin to light up below, and headlights spot the roads with yellowish white lights.
But his eyes dart to where he had left Ji Hyo, and something in his chest seems to tighten up at what he saw.
Ji Hyo is crying.
But that is not the only thing that made his chest go like this.
But the fact that she's crying in Joong Ki's shoulder.
He immediately shuts the window and goes back to his seat.
I told you she'd be fine. A lot of people cares for her., he says to himself.
"Jong Kook-ah.. ", Jae Seok calls as he and the others enter.
He looks around and asks, "Where's Ji Hyo and Joong Ki? "
