Damned Star (Completed)

Sheet 12

Yesterday’s scene was very… how can I put it into words? It’s very, uhm. I am speechless actually. Well, in the end I ate what I was supposed to give Yoochun. I couldn’t go back there. The whole situation was too sensitive for me to interfere at all.  I couldn’t imagine myself standing in between them as they discussed about important matters while still holding the melting dessert on my hands.

I can’t believe I was so slow not to realize that Minkyung could have been Yoochun’s ex-girlfriend. Well she is, but it never dawned to me until that oh so dramatic reunion. I kinda feel bad though, it was me who brought her there, and I don’t think Yoochun was ready to meet her. The look painted on his face says it all. His reaction was similar to seeing a monster or some super natural creature.

What have you done Lee Minah? Just when the star was getting better, he will be damned all over again, because of one little mistake.

I kept staring at this piano key chain I wish to give him. I know I did not want to buy any Yoochun-related item back at that stall but I just find the trinket to be really cute. I thought this would cheer him up too. I guess if I hand this to him now, he’ll just throw it away on to the ground.

“Aish.” I uttered with much frustration as I hit my head a few times.

I wonder what happened after though. I haven’t gone outside since yesterday. It is also my day-off, so there really is no reason for me to head out. Maybe I should go check up on him.

I sprung up and was about to walk out my room when part of me hesitated. What if they already made up and because of so much love they did it at the same night they reunited?

Wait, what am I saying? That’s not possible… or is it? Ugh, I have been watching too many dramas lately. I should man up! I took in a deep breath and marched my way to the star’s unit.

The second I stepped outside I couldn’t help but notice Yoochun’s main door, wide open. That is pretty careless of him. I gradually walked towards his place when a strong scent of alcohol greeted my nose.

Eww. Why is his place reeking of alcohol again? Did he have a drinking spree last night? I held my breath and hopped inside, only to find a messy living room with cans of beer everywhere.

“Yoochun?” I called him, scanning the area keenly. However there was no trace of him. I wonder where he is. I made my way out and noticed the rooftop’s door open. He must be out there.

I climbed the stairs and saw a weak and hopeless man, staring out the orange skies.

“Y-” I hesitated. He looked so miserable like when I first met him in this very place.

I bit my lips and gathered all my courage and called his name gently, “Yoochun.”

The star did not budge one bit so I allowed myself to come towards him.

“Hey is everything alright?” I cautiously queried as I went closer.

The pale Yoochun just shot me a blank dark stare, his eyes still a bit teary. I instantly felt bad for him and my guilt worsen. I tried to stand beside him as near as possible. Once I got comfortable, my hand reached for him and I began to pat him on his back.

“You saw everything yesterday… right?” he sniffled.

I was afraid to answer him. I don’t know where this conversation will head off to.  I’ll just have to take in whatever he says as to not add to his current stress.

“Y-yes.” I responded, uncertainty surrounding my tone.

“That lady is Minkyung… my ex.” He uttered, while emphasizing ‘ex’. His eyes traced my face and shot me a gaze I have never seen before. I can’t even describe it.
