What If You Need Me (Sequel Yesterday's Devil)

Chapter 3

Jongin

I laid on my side staring out of the window, in the room I woke up in this morning. My stomach was protesting against my smart idea to skip breakfast. I was so angry at Jungsu that I pushed the plate with food away. Who did he think he was? You can't just take people out of their life and force them so stay with you for who knows why. I was so frustrated.

The door squealed softly when someone opened the door and entered the small room. I didn't bother to move and kept staring at the outside world, or more precisely, the sky. The room was a few floors high.
The bed was slumped from the extra weight added when the person sat down.
My stomach growled loudly and I let out a deep sigh.

"Jongin," Minsuh spoke. "I brought you some food."

"Why?" I simply asked and closed my eyes.

"Because we can't have you starve to death." She sat down on her knees and wiped her hair behind her ears while leaning over my body to see my face. "Eat something."

"If you go away." I demanded, still with my eyes closed.

"Fine." She spoke, but didn't move away.

I looked up and noticed she was staring down at me. I waited patiently, but she kept sitting in the same position. "Who are you?"

"I already told you my name is Minsuh."

"Why are you here?" I asked her as I pushed myself in a sitting position so she had to back off a bit.

"None of your business," she replied with a smile. "That's not important right now."

"Then what is?" I eyed the plate with food she had brought with her and placed a hand on my stomach.

"Food." She grinned at me as she noticed my expression. "Eat."

I picked up a piece and put it in my mouth. "Why am I here though?" I kept asking her questions.

"Because you need to be out of the way." She leaned back and rested against the headboard.

"What way?" I stopped eating and looked at her intently. "Tell me."

"I don't think I'm supposed to," Minsuh frowned and tilted her head a bit. "I really don't think that's a good idea."

"Do you work for him or something?" I started eating again while waiting for her answer.

She let out a chuckle, "he wished."

"Then what?" I looked up at her and noticed she had been staring at me.

"I'm his girlfriend." She explained.

"Wow," I shook my head in disbelief. "Why would someone want to date Jungsu?"

"Why did you date Kyungsoo?" She asked back.

I felt my cheeks heating up when I heard his name. I haven't seen him in such a long time and I wondered where he was and how he was doing. We never officially broke up, we only went apart in a very unusual way. I knew what he had done, but I couldn't just stop loving him. I thought a lot about him and I realised I had been stupid since the beginning. The guy was full of red flags. Wrecked up face and stuff. I should've seen it coming, but I held onto him. "Because I loved him."

"There you have the answer," she spoke softly.

"I need to talk to him and the others," I suddenly said. "They'll be worried."

She nodded, "but you can't go home. We just need to wait until this evening when Jungsu arrives."

"I am a grown up man you can't keep me here forever." I turned my body away from her and ran a hand through my hair in frustration.

"You can go as soon as he is finished." She explained. "It shouldn't take long."

"What is he going to do?" I turned my head to the side, but not enough to look at her. "Why does he need me out of the way?"

"I told you I can't tell you. Ask him when he comes home." She replied bitter. "I actually got nothing to do with this all."

"Then why are you here and working with him?" I raised my voice. "If nothing of this has anything to do with you then why are you sitting here right now?"

"All I did was give you food," she huffed.

"I don't want food, I want answers!" I snapped. I noticed she tried to hold in her anger, but I had the right to be angry, she didn't.

"Fair enough," Minsuh got off the bed. "I won't bother you then. I hope for you, Jungsu fails with what he's planning for Kyungsoo." She walked out of the room and slammed the door shut. If she didn't want to give me answers I definitely didn't want her company. But what did she mean with what Jungsu's planning with Kyungsoo? What was he going to do? I need to get out of here. This was crazy.

I stood up and walked over to the window.
If I jumped I'd probably break my leg or something and that wouldn't bring me far. I didn't know where I was either and it didn't look like there were houses closeby.
I needed to find another way.
