Sunshine behind the sewer

Strangers

We're not lovers , we're just strangers
With the same damn hunger
To be touched , to be loved
To feel anything at all

Four years ago :

Tears slided down his already wet cheeks , his shaky hands clutching the small teddy bear which was stained with blood .
There , in the corner , the 18 years old nurse sat listening to the mother crying and shouting in agony . While he , he just held her son's toy , unable to believe that he died and he couldn't do anything to save his life.
Seokjin hated himself at this moment.

The eight years old boy was running to catch his teddy after one of the rude bully on street snatched it from him and threw it away.
Before the mother could stop her son , a car already did.
Later the boy was admitted to the hospital where Jin is supposed to work at as a nurse.
It was his very first day there , so seeing the small infant on a stretcher , all bloody but still clutching his teddy bear shocked him for the rest of his life.

Seokjin followed while holding into the stretcher , his eyes meeting the small angel's , and he smiled at him.
The ghost of death haunted his lips.
But Seokjin prayed , from the bottom of his heart prayed that the boy will survive.

The doctor was late and so was the boy's chance to survive .
Before he closed his beautiful eyes the boy held Jin's hand , weakly gave him the teddy and whispered in a barely edible sound . "To ..ur ..son."
Then his heart stopped.

The doctor arrived , CPR .. electric shock .. everything was done.
Unfortunately nothing saved the boy.

The mother went through a trauma and nurses were forced to give her a hypnotic.
While Jin was in the corner , crying his eyes out silently , clutching the little teddy bear.
He felt someone's arms wrapped around his shoulder securely then latter that person pulled him into a tight hug. His best friend Ken , whom was also one of the nurses there.

He felt like he was the reason .. he blamed himself for not being able to save the boy ..

Since that day Seokjin changed his goals , he didn't want to be a simple nurse just to have enough money for himself and his family , he wanted to become a big doctor , devote his life to the last breath to the last heart beat to save someone's life.
Everyone deserves to live .
No exception.

Nowday :

The beautiful man was reading a book about "Anatomy" while sipping his coffee , tho his eyes felt heavy due to the lack of sleep , Jin managed to keep them opened . After all in one hour it'll be his night shift in the hospital , next to him on the table was a teddy bear , strawberries scented , carefully placed next to a Chinese vase and a candle.

When Seokjin feels tired and unable to continue he looks at the teddy , remember the small boy with angelic smile and what he devoted his life to so the tiredness disappear and he works harder.

Only a few years left till his graduation and they day he'll officially walk into the hospital with a white clothes on instead of green one and a name tag with :
"Doctor Kim Seokjin"  written on instead of "Nurse Kim."

His thoughts drifted to his mother and brother , his only family since their father left them before he was born.
Their mother worked really hard to maintain their education and once they were able to work they decided it was time to pay her back. 
Now Jin works as a nurse in the local hospital away from Busan and sends money while his brother own a clothes store in Busan and has a really sweet girlfriend that often visit his mother .

The phone rang and he picked up :
"Hello."
"Ahhh Jinnie ! I missed you!"
"*chuckle* ken we're in the same Uni and hospital you know."
"Yeah I know but I really miss my handsome adorable friend."
"Ya ! Stop flirting and say what you want ."
"I have good news for you. Doctor Lee  said that you have this day off so sleep your ass as much as you want or go to club and shake your booty ."
"Really...are you sure..what if.."
"Relax Jin nothing bad will happen plus the professor is here so everything is well handled . I still have a few hours of work more now see you later."
"Take care Ken."

For the first time , in a year , Jin has this day off.

First thing he did is buying groceries .
Since he was busy all the time most of his meals consisted of fast food or Ramyon which he hated.
Jin adored  home cooked meals especially his own . If there was one thing he ever fell in love with in his whole single life it'll be food 

So now that he have time he bought a lot of stuffs and stored them properly , sent his mother a small amount of money then went back to take a nap.

He woke up at 10:00 pm . Jin held the book that was next to his bed wanting to study again then a sigh escaped his lips.. is that all he's gonna do in his rare free time ? Studying ?

Jin jumped out of the bed and quickly opened his closet wanting to pick something nice to wear.
His hyung always sends him fancy clothes .
Gucci , Supreme , Channel ...
His hyung is the best . He never forget to send him pink clothes as well since he knows his brother's  not so secret obsession with pink.

He chose an oversized pink hoodie with a pair of ripped black jeans , wore his favorite perfume and applied some lip balm and eyeliner then took care of his blonde hair.
After five minutes of starring into his reflection , praising his handsomeness and taking a couple of slefies he took his leaves.

Music boomed in the place , bdies moving across the dance floor , loud giggles and shout were heard . Jin simply sat by the bar enjoying his drink and chatting a bit with the bartender "Sandeul" , since he was one of his former classmate.
"So how's that Ken bitch?"
Jin laughed giving Sandeul another high five then said "Flirting with every goddamn new nurse. Seriously if he doesn't stop doctor Lee will kick his ass."
"Told you he's a bitch...yo Jinah."
"Hmm?"
"Lend me your ear ."
Jin leaned closer and Sandeul whispered something about all those people eyeing Jin and the latter nodded.  What Jin didn't expect is how fast the alcohol kicked in. It was his second shot only and he already felt tipsy.

"You have beautiful eyes you know." A husky voice said next to his ear .
"Of course I do." Seokjin replied taking another sip of his second vodka glass, finishing it.
"What bring an innocent baby here?"
"I lost my milk bottle here...and I am apparently 22 years old crackhead."
"Fiesty."
The man chuckled slightly showing his bunny teeth, stood next to him ordering something . Then out of nowhere he wrapped his arm around Jin's waist. Jin raised an eyebrow at him but he only smirked starring deeper into Jin's eyes.

Jin wanted to slap the man and tell him to cut off his arms but for some reason.. he didn't mind it. After all he came here to relieve some stress . Plus he looked really handsome especially with such a sharp features.

"Eomma...school...don't..ring."
A few words escaped his plump lips before he completely wake up..and damn the headache.
Jin panicked when he realised it wasn't his room and this wasn't his bed. But then he remembered what happened last night and his cheeks became extremely red.

He stood up with bed sheets wrapped around him , for his great luck the man wasn't next to him.
He saw a note on the small table witha stack of money on it side.

"Take care of yourself ."

Seokjin laughed while muttering what the fuck under his breath..probably the man thought he did it for the money .
Jin pulled a 50 dollars bill from his wallet then placed it on top of the money and wrote on it back :

Thank you for the night . 

He called ken after he was done dressing and got out of the small apartment he was in.

"Jinniee ! How are you ?!"
"I lost my virginity."
"....."
