Deception

Chapter 15

Chapter Fifteen

I stumble out of the room in my boxers and dress shirt unbuttoned. The people in the halls give me a weird look and I shut the door as well as I can. I try to make it out without crying in front of everyone but a tear escapes from my eye.

I realized why they never let me drink. And I am technically still in high school. I hurry to Shika and Tiso’s room and stumble in falling on the floor. When I get there I know I can cry so I do. Someone turns on the light and shuts the door before picking me up.

“What’s wrong Shin?”

“It was Jin’s room. He’s here.” They are both quiet. “I did what I needed to do, please. Let’s go home. I can’t stay here anymore.”

“Are you sure Shin, maybe you want to…?”

“LET’S GO!” I jerk away from them and grab some of Tiso’s clothing. I dress and then we leave the room.

We get to the entrance and hear a voice clearing. “Where are you going?”

“Thank you for your hospitality but Shin wants to leave now.” Tiso wraps my arms around him so I can stand straight.

“Thanks for putting him in Jin’s room by the way. He really appreciated that.”

“Why do you care where he sleeps? As long as it is a bed it doesn’t matter. Besides…”

“Shut the hell up you old hag.”

“EXCUSE ME!?”

“SHUT UP!” I yell and anyone around us looks. “Just shut up. STOP FIGHTING ABOUT EVERYTHING! SHE PUT ME IN THEIR BECAUSE SHE KNEW WHAT I NEEDED TO DO. NOW I AM DONE, I HAVE SAID GOODBYE AND I AM TRYING TO STAY STRONG RIGHT NOW. I CAN’T DEAL WITH THIS RIGHT NOW! YOU NEED TO GO HOME AND I NEED TO GO HOME. DON’T WORRY, I WILL NEVER COME BACK AND I WILL NEVER SEE HIM AGAIN! DO WHAT EVER THE HELL YOU WANT LATER WHEN I AM GONE.”

“Calm down Shin.” Tiso whispers.

It is quiet. “Five years… For five years I have been in love with him. For five years he has been my only friend. Never in my life have I had a friend, I was always sheltered up. Maybe meeting someone in the mafia wasn’t exactly best, especially for my family and I. But I don’t regret anything. I don’t regret getting hurt at the fireworks because they thought I was a danger to him or the first time we met when he accidentally punched me in the nose. No matter what has happened I am thankful for every moment. And I am thankful for all of your help. I will not forget any of this. But I would feel better if you all forget about me and help Jin never even remember my face. My name, my existence. I don’t want to ever see him again.”

Then I leave letting go of Tiso. “Wait, shin!” He tries to grab me and I jerk away. “Where are you going? You're drunk, stop fighting me."

“Home. I will have someone return the clothing and I will pay you both handsomely for your help. Have a good life. Thank you for all of your help.”

“So you are going to go home without knowing what will happen, and you are just going to forget Jin. You’re going to give up?”

“I have to. I can’t be a part of his life anymore.”

I walk to the police station and once I arrive I pass out.
