love me or lose me ~svt ff

part 3

I was meeting up with Jinhee for a dinner date, Mingyu had to stay late and so I thought it would be best if I went out instead of being home. It was nice to meet up with a friend like this. It felt normal.
"Unnie!" I hear a shout and turn to see Jinhee."Ah it's so nice to see you." she says, when she gets to my side she loops her arm in mine. "Let's go!" I laugh as she pulls me towards a nice bbq place.
We have to take off our shoes before we go in a sit, but we snag a nice table in the corner away from others. Jinhee orders soju and the water.
"So how have you been? I heard Mingyu moved in. That must be exciting." I laugh, she's a burst of energy.
"He's such a good cook! I think I'm going to get fat! It's bad Jinhee, ah Sumi just eats and eats."
"You finally decided on a name?! Oh how great," she reaches over and pats my tummy "annyong sumi! auntie can't wait to meet you!" without fail she gives a pleased kick.
"She so active lately, I'd think she was coming sooner than she is."
Jinhee and I had a wonderful dinner. We decided to go out for a walk since it was so nice out. We went by lots of shops looking and enjoying our time together but then I froze.
I saw him through the window, sitting with another girl. She reached her hand out to his and grabbed it. He smiled, and I felt my heart break. She leaned in as if she was going to kiss him but he turned his head, now he was facing me. When he looked up our eyes met, and then they became wide. Jinhee grabbed a hold of me because she knew I was about to fall. I saw him suddenly jump up and the girl looked shocked then she looked at me and gave a smirk. He came rushing out but I didn't want to hear a single thing he had to say, I jerked away from Jinhee and turned to make a run for it.
"Jia wait!" I heard him shout. Hot angry tears filled my eyes. I kept running because I didn't want him to catch me.
My vision was blurred and my head was throbbing. The man I thought loved me was cheating. I heard him shout again and again, it wasn't till I was in the middle of the road that I turned to look at him.
He looked like he was about to cry. I took a step back, I couldn't let him get to me. Then I heard a horn and screeching Mingyu yelling my name.
It became black.

I woke up to the sound of beeping, I wondered where I was. As I looked around the room I realized I was in a hospital. My whole body ached and for some reason I felt very empty. Then I saw him, there was a man sitting with his head in his hands, he looked up at me tears in his eyes. Who was he? I felt like I knew him but every time I tried to think I drew a blank.
"Jia!" he said and then came to me and hugged me, I let out a yelp of pain. Quickly he let go and backed away. "I'm sorry, are you okay?"
"Who are you?" I asked, his face dropped as if his whole world just shattered. Suddenly the door opened and I saw Jinhee.
"Unnie!" she was crying, and she rushed to my side.
"Jinhee! What happened? Why am I here?" She grabbed my hand. The man had stepped back at this point.
"You were in an accident, you lost Sumi." tears kept streaming down her face, she was a mess.
"Who's Sumi?" I ask puzzled. She turns to the guy and talks to him.
"Wait does she not remember?"
"Doesn't seem like it, she doesn't even remember me." I was so confused and my head was pounding.
"What's going on?" I ask again.
"It's nothing you were in an accident but you'll be okay." Jinhee said smiling tears still rolling down her face. "Get some rest." Jinhee turns and ushers the man out of the room. Everything was insane.

Mingyu's POV

Jinhee pushed me out of the room. My heart felt like it was just smashed.
"She doesn't remember me." I say quietly while looking to the ground, tears roll down my face. Just then a doctor comes by, just before he goes into Jia's room I stop him.
"Excuse me, my wife seems to have lost her memory. What's going on?" I'm worried.
"It seems with the accident and losing the baby her mind is trying to block it all out in order to keep from hurting her. In other words, her mind is blocking out the traumatic experience." Was I the cause of it? The doctor went in leaving me and Jinhee outside.
"Mingyu it's probably best if you leave her be, just until she starts to remember things." I nodded.
"You know I wasn't on a date right? That girl, she was trying to get me to agree to do a commercial. She was so forward, when I told her I was getting married and I was going to have a kid she grabbed my hands to congratulate me." Jinhee looked skeptical, I don't blame her. Just looking at it, we looked like we were in a date.
"Mingyu I believe you. I know how much you love Jia, but right now you have to leave her alone. It'll be enough shock to find out her grandma passed all over again. Just wait until she gets her memory back."
"How long is that going to take? I just lost my child I can't lose my wife too!" Tears filled my eyes.
"Mingyu if you love her you'll be able to wait, you know she loved you too. She'll come back I promise." My heart hurt, I just wanted to hold Jia right now.
"Fine." I say and then turn to leave. I hear Jinhee shout.
"She loves you, just give her time!" I look over my shoulder a tear running down my face and give her a nod. I then continue to walk away. Just then my phone rang.
"Hello?"
"Mingyu how is Jia?" It was Seungcheol, he knew that Jia was in the hospital.
"We lost sleepy," I sobbed, by now I was sitting on a bench outside "and Jia doesn't remember me." he was silent for a moment and then gave a sigh.
"Mingyu love her or lose her. You decide."
"I refuse to lose her, I can't." I say, my heart was still hurting.
I returned to the dorms after I got my things from Jia's house. My heart was hurting and all I wanted to do was cry, Seungcheol Hyung was the first person I saw and he just came up to me and hugged me tightly. I sobbed as he patted my back, I was falling apart.
"I know it's hard right now Mingyu but you can't give up. Fight for what you love." He said to me. Those words of encouragement were the only thing keeping me on my feet at this moment.

Jia's POV

Jinhee helped me home after I was discharged from the hospital. Just before we entered the house she stopped me.
"Unnie there's something I need to tell you. Your grandma, well she passed away a few months ago."
"What."
"It's August now, your grandma passed away in April." I lost my breath, my grandma was gone. I was all alone.
"I need to go inside." that was all I could say before I slipped in and shut the door behind me. The house was empty and cold, but it wasn't just my grandma I was missing. There was someone else who was supposed to be here and I couldn't figure it out. I sat down on my couch and looked around the empty room. I put my face in my hands and began to sob and sob. My heart was hurting.
A week went by and I laid in bed, unable to move or do anything. I barely even eat, only when I absolutely need to. I got up to look in the fridge only to find it was empty, which meant I'd have to get up and go out shopping. Because of this I ventured to the bathroom, standing in front of the mirror looking at my reflection for the first time in a week.
Puff eyes from crying, messy unwashed hair, and a broken girl were all things I saw. I decided to shower. I let the hot water wash over me, hug me. It felt nice and comforting.
After my shower I dried my hair and put on a sweater and some pants. At the door I slipped on my shoes and left my little empty house.
Outside was bright and hot, as I walked down the street it seemed to be full of life. My stomach rumbled and then I decided to turn into a cafe. It was cool inside, quiet too which was perfect. I went up and ordered a cake along with an iced tea. After getting my order I went and sat done in a corner. The place was beautiful and it inspired me to want to draw, so I took out my small sketch book along with a pencil and began to draw.
I was so immersed in drawing I didn't notice the man who had sat down across from me. But when I looked up I was greeted by the kindest face I had ever seen. Our eyes met and his seemed to smile. My heart began to act weird.
"Do you mind if I join you? I noticed you were alone and I didn't want to eat alone." His voice was mesmerizing.
"Mmm sure I don't mind." I say, just then turning the page in my sketch book, "But under one condition."
"Anything." he said confidently.
"Let me draw you." I say, and then afterwards I become embarrassed and my face turns pink. He gives a laugh.
"A beautiful girl wants to draw me? If anything you should be the one who gets drawn." My face gets hot. "But I can't draw so please go ahead. I feel honored." I nod and begin to sketch out his face.
"So what's your name?" He asks me, I respond without looking up.
"Park Jia. And yours?" I look up at him to refresh my memory.
"Min Yoongi. So Park Jia do you have a boyfriend?" I stop drawing.
"No I don't, do you have a girlfriend?" I ask he smiles.
"No I don't but I did just meet a girl who I want to make my girlfriend."
"Oh really? Tell me about her."
"Well she's beautiful, seems kind, quick witted, an artist and totally my type." I smile and continue to draw.
"She sounds like a real catch. Here I'm done if you want to look." I hold out my sketch book to him. He takes it, his hand grazes mine as he does.
"She is, and I'm wondering if I could get her number." he examines the drawing taking in every detail. Then looks up at me. "So can I have your number?" I nod and give it to him. We talk for a bit longer but then someone comes in and takes him away. Our goodbye was short but I know this wasn't the last I was going to see of Min Yoongi. Not by a long shot.
I got groceries and headed home. When I got home I looked through my phone. I saw that I had a message from Yoongi.

Yoongi- Sorry for the quick goodbye but can't wait to see you again.
Let's go out to eat tomorrow!

I smiled, he was so kind. Just then I got another message.

Yoongi- Oh by the way I took your picture when you weren't looking. I sent it into the place I go to do photoshoots and they want you to come in to do some test shoots!
You're too beautiful not to share with the world.

My heart fluttered, I was nervous but excited.
