Ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation

Jinah

Yesterday was a great day for both of us. It was refreshing. I grab my stuff under my table and when I get up to pack it in, someone hits the surface of my table.

"Hey new kid" there's three girls infront of my table.

"May I help you?" I said slowly.

"Heard you went to Jaemin's house everyday... You like him don't you?" She smirks.

"He's my brother's friend" I tried to be careful with my words.

"It hurts my eyes seeing you acting kind like this..."

"He is sick and stupid too... He didn't go to school since young"

"Jaemin is going to die anyways... What would you get being with him?"

"It's none of your business" I muttered.

"What's that Canada girl?" She pulled the end of my hair.

"Let go of me" I pushed her away with so much strength that she falls down flat on her bottom.

"Even if he's sick, you have no rights to say bad things about him. Am I clear?" I stepped on her feet.

"Don't stick your nose into people's business... Disgusting" I took my bag and left the class.

I leave the school and head straight to Jaemin's house. Infront of the house, I saw a familiar looking car.

What's Mark doing here?

I ring the bell and then Mark opened the door for me.

"Hey what are you doing here?" I asked him.

"Just.... Checking" He said. I just hummed before running up the stairs going to Jaemin's room.

Jaemin isn't sitting as usual. He's completely laying down and it worries me. He's wearing a ventilator. I went in and he took it off for awhile and smiled to me weakly.

"Nana what happend?" I sat down slowly beside him.

"He's been getting nauseous and feeling drowsy all day. He's breathing is short too... I'm worried" Haeun eonnie came in with a tray of food.

She helped him get up and I saw a frown on Jaemin's face. I lift my eyebrows when I see him not taking the chopsticks and feeding himself.

"Why aren't you eating?" I asked.

"I have no appetite.... Can't I just have a cup of coffee?" He asked his sister.

"How are you going to rest if you drink coffee? Plus it will dehydrate you..." I poke his shoulder.

"I don't want to sleep... I'm afraid if I close my eyes-" he looked down.

"DON'T SAY THAT! I WON'T LET IT HAPPEN" His sister stood there but looking down.

"Ahh eonnie don't cry..." I went to hug her when I heard her sniffing.

Then she left the room but she didn't say a word. Jaemin pushed away the tray. I went to sit back at where I was and hold the chopsticks. I pick up some food.

"Eat... At least a little. A mouth or two will do. I'll feed you and if you eat I'll make you some coffee" I said. Then only he opened his mouth.

He ate everything and that ease my worries a little. I took the tray and bring it out of the room. I went to the kitchen to place them in the dishwasher. I took a mug and made warm coffee with a little cocoa to lessen the bitter taste of the coffee.

I climb up the stairs while glancing at Mark and Haeun eonnie. He's comforting her. She's crying so much and I feel so sorry for her.

I went to Jaemin and gave him the mug. His sick is pale. I can see some swelling on his feet. I wonder what happened to him.

"I've transferred the photos and videos of yesterday into two drives. This one is for you... If you're bored or I'm not around... You can always watch them" I took his hand.

I opened his palm and placed it inside before closing it with his fingers.

Jaemin

"I'm going to miss you" I mumbled.

"Huh?" She looked at me. I just shake my head as if it's nothing.

I can't tell her... I won't tell her what happened. Suddenly Mark hyung came into the room.

"Jinah... Let's go home" he said.

She nods her head and stood up from the chair.

"Jinnie..."

"Yes Nana?" She turned back.

"Take care..." I said because I didn't know why I called her.

"En... You too Jaeminie" She finally smiled brightly.

"Okay guys... I know I'm single... Don't do this infront of my salad" Mark chuckled.

We had a short laugh and then they leave. I watch his car from the window and it moves slowly. Later it was out of my sight.

"Jaemin ah..." Haeun called me.

"Yes noona?" I looked at her.

"I'll start packing your things now... We're leaving at twelve tomorrow"
