ep 14; roses✨

Minho dropped the roses on the ground and looked at the oxygen mask, oxygen pumping in and out constantly. I started to twitch and my eyes slightly opened.

"T-Taemin?"

I tried to say 'I can't breathe' but it was inaudible. Minho held my hand and frowned seeing me like this. "Taemin, I know you can't, but it's going to be like that for a while.", he picked up the roses and put them beside me.

"I got you these, but I also had a balloon then I accidentally let it go and-", Minho stopped and looked at me in a caring way.

He laid his head down on the hospital bed and picked it back right up in a fast speed, grabbing a little piece of fabric from my hospital gown and pinned the jellyfish pin right on there. "I had something important to talk about, Mr. Lee," he chuckled while in the pin process.

"I'm not quite a fan of your lifestyle and I think you know what I mean about that. I see you're dealing with addiction and all, but," he clenched my hand with extreme care and softly said ".. let me help you."

I tried my best to smile but all of my body was paralyzed. So much pain revolved in every muscle. Everything that's happened in the past went in and out of my head.

"Maybe we can escape from here and go to the aquarium? At least when you're doing better. Don't think I don't remember little Taeminnie and little Ming's adventures-"

"of the deep sea," I mumbled, gasping air to breathe. Laughing really hurt so I won't be attempting that. A wide bright smile made its way to Minho's lips. He sighed and gazed at the wall, puckering his lips in deep thought. His smile quickly faded and a frown appeared. "You know Taemin, I really do care about you but," he paused.

"If you keep living like this, I won't be here for you anymore."

My heart shattered hearing those words from Minho. I need to get my life together. I did this without thinking about everything overall, only relaxing and getting high. I tried my best to speak to him.

"Minho, I- I love you and I'll try my best to quit," I said, needing to gasp at the end, for oxygen or just dramatic effect like in the K-Drama's.

He smiled and nodded.

BREAKING NEWS: COACH CHAENG SENTENCED TO 18 YEARS DUE TO HOMICIDE OF KIM JONGIN. WONG YUKHEI CALLED BY LUCAS, IS GIVEN A WARNING.

BUZZZZ.

"Mr. Chaeng, your visitor is here."

He stood up and walked to the bench, sitting down, wondering who it was. He saw a young man in his late 20's. His hair was bleached blonde, a really pale blonde, almost all white. Chaeng widened his eyes and looked away. "Why are you here, kid?", he asked him.

"Maybe it's because you've killed my student, hm?", Jonghyun snapped at him. "Listen, why did you do it? I know it had something to do with me, but why? Why do you still care?"

"Look Jonghyun, I don't care about your dumb interview. Let me guess, your new career is journalism?", he mocked him.

"You must really think I'm here for your dumb jokes and laughs. I'm here to talk about Jongin, give me the damn reason you did that to him," Jonghyun's face was so dead serious, it sent chills down every guard's spines. Jonghyun was like a breathtaking red rose and Chaeng was the thorns.

"I did it because he was a mistake and you knew better to teach him. I hate seeing his face. What happened to you, Kim? You were better as my student."

"Your fucking student? I was like a slave to you, just for making filthy money."

"Yet you disappeared and was just regular, broke ass Kim Jonghyun with his (BLEEP) of a boyfriend.", Chaeng snapped back.

Jonghyun was about to do something he would never regret. The memories of Jongin all came up at once and his tears rushed in.
