You Are My....

Chapter 6

Welcome back :)

Ming's pov

I don't know how long I've been standing in front of Yo's room. I just stood there staring his white door with Wayo's name on it. I sighed and open the door to find an empty bed. I looked around and realised the balcony door's open. I put my bag on the floor and walked to the balcony. Yo is sitting in the double chair with a beer can in hand. There are one empty can and four unopened beer in the floor around his feet.

"I don't know you like beer."

He smiled without moving his gaze from whatever he has been staring at.

"Where did you get those?"

"I stole it from Dad's room. I'll replace it before he got back."

"Have you taken any medicine?"

He rolled his eyes and hand me one beer.

"Of course not. I don't want to die."

"Why won't you? Taken any medicine, I mean. Not the die part."

"I just don't feel like it."

I opened my beer and gulped it down.

"I thought you have a date with Moowan? Why are you back so early?"

"We broke up."

He turned to looked at me.

"It's because of me, isn't it?"

"No, I just don't like her anymore."

"So you dumped her?"

I nodded.

"Are you sure? Not another way around? Because I'm pretty sure that the reason is because you were too busy to babysit me."

"Yep, a hundred percent sure. I'm the one dumping her."

"Ming.."

"Yo. Stop. It's not because of you."

He sighed and return his gaze to the front. I don't even tried to followed his eyes to know that he's staring at nothing. Like he has been doing for this past few months. I gulped down my beer again. My mind can't help to wander to that day. I still remember it clearly in my head like it's only happen yesterday. The day that I lost my best friend. The worst day of my life.

Flashback

I don't have a good feeling when Yo asked me to let him met P'Pha alone. But he keep begging me so of course I gave in. I never won against him anyway. So I get to his car alone.

"Where's Yo, Ming?"

Uncle Kim, Yo's driver asked me.

"He has a date with P'Pha. He told me to go home first."

He nodded and started the car. I was busy texting Moowan when suddenly Uncle Kim called me.

"Ming, is that Phana that Yo always talking about?"

I followed his eyes. I saw P'Pha sitting in one of food stall not far from school with his two best friends, chatting happily. I confused and check my phone. There's no call from Yo. I gulped in fear.

"Uncle, turn around. Get back to the school."

He nodded and turned the car around. Thankfully we haven't that far. I opened the door and get off before the car even stopped completely. I run towards the gym as fast as I can. I looked around and found two people standing in front of storage room. They looked shocked and terrified when they saw me. I recognised them as Sanit's friends. Then I heard a muffled voice from inside the room. I feel my chest burned in rage. I move forward and kick one of them and punch the other one in the stomach until they fall to the ground. I forcefully kick the door open and shocked with what I see.

Yo is lying on the ground with Sanit hovering above him. There's two other guy hold Yo's hand and feet. They froze when they see me. I grab Sanit's off of Yo and looked down to see that his pants already off. I punched him in the face repeatedly until someone pulled me from him.

"Ming! I called security. Go check on Yo. I'll handle him."

I stopped struggling and turned to looked at Yo. He's lying still on the ground almost naked. He's eyes opened but he didn't move. Uncle Kim take off his jacket and gave it to me. I run to Yo, wrap him with Uncle Kim's jacket and hold him in my arms. He started to moved and I sighed in relief. But then he started to scream and wriggle out from my hug. I looked at him in panic. He keep screaming and crying. His feet kicking wildly. Uncle Kim help to held him down. I hug him tighter.

"Yo.. It's okay. It's me. You okay now."

I let out a sob seeing my best friend like this. Then he stop moving. He passed out.

"Let's bring him to the hospital."

I nodded. I wrap his body with Uncle Kim's jacket and carry him in my arms.

End of flashback

It has been a rough few months after that. Everyone who involved at Wayo's sexual assault has been put in jail. They all shocked about how powerful Wayo's father is. Yo always been humble and no one would guess that he's the only son from the one of most richest man in whole country. Uncle is so furious that he almost close down the school. I can't agree more. But Wayo begged him to not to. He asked to moved to another school instead. Uncle agreed with the condition that the school will never talked about this anymore. No one needed to know. They erased everything about Yo's information from school. It's like Yo's never exist. And of course I followed him. I moved my school to Wayo's with Uncle help.

But it's not like everything resolved after that. After what he had been through, I'm not expecting him to back to his usual self that quickly. He's just seem like an empty shell to me. He did cried in the first weeks after the incident. He can't go through the night without nightmare. He never let anyone touch him anymore. Not even his own father.

He's been better after a while. He finally started to go to school. But he has to started take some medicine to help him sleep without nightmare. He usually don't take one when I slept over. Sometimes he just sleep peacefully, but sometimes he'll woke up from a nightmare. This is one of the special occasion when he let me hug him until he back to sleep.

I'm not gonna lied. I missed my best friend so much. He never smiled sincerely anymore. He even stopped crying. I seriously never seen him cried expect when he's having a nightmare. That worried me more. It's like he put up a giant wall around him. I can't get through it no matter how hard I tried. And I don't know what to do to make him come back.

I fisted my hand with anger. Only if that day I don't give in. Only if that day I keep on insisting to come with him. None of this will happen. I'll still have my best friend, we'll be talking and laughing while having a movie night in his own movie room. And I'll be able to escape from my own nightmare like always.

"It's not your fault."

Yo's voice brought me to present.

"I'm the one begging you to go. So it's not your fault. It's not anyone's fault."

I put my hand slowly in his shoulder. He tensed for a second but started to relax. I take it as a good sign and pulled him into a hug. He rested his head on my chest and I rested mine in his head.

"Ming.."

"Hm?"

"When you plan to tell me that you're moving to Hongkong?"
