Dahyun's pov
In the morning, i woke up, took a shower and put on my school uniform. I went to the dining room and saw my grandmother preparing the breakfast. I came to help her prepare the table. After that, the three of us eat breakfast together and i went off to school.
On the way there, i saw jennie walking to school with kai. The usual me will probably cheerfully greet them, but now i am not in the mood. So i just silently walk while listening to music through the earphone.
Once i got to school, i went straight to the class. And of course jennie and kai saw me and greeted me with a smile. I forced a smile and sit down on my seat.
"Hyunie. Do you want to visit tae's mom after school?" Jennie say.
"Will he come to school today?" I ask.
"We're not sure. But he probably won't." Kai say.
"Oh. Then we'll have to visit him after school to give him the notes of todays lessons." I say.
Then they continue talking, but i just look out through the window, wishing this day will end soon. And so, i spend my whole day spacing out and listening to music. I am not in the mood to do anything troublesome.
Time flies. Without me noticing, it is already the end of school hour. I packed my stuff and was about to go home, but i remembered that i am supposed to visit tae with jennie and kai. So i took out my phone and called my house number since my grandparents don't have a personal phone.
[Ne, annyeonghaseo?]
"Halmeoni, this is dahyun. I just wanted to tell you that i'll be visiting my friend at the hospital. So i'll be coming home a bit late today."
(Halmeoni = grandma)
[Ah, i see. It's okay. But don't come home too late, arraseo?]
"Ne. See you halmeoni." I say before i hung up.
After that, i saw jennie and kai behind me. Jennie was looking at me in full curiosity.
"Is thar your halmeoni? Then your hal-abeoji is also here? It is so rare for them to come over. I thought they hate the city." Jennie say.
"There are some situations that needs them to be here." I say.
"Hm.... Anyway let's go before it's too dark." Jennie say.
We went to the school gate and kai's driver was there waiting with his car.
We ride kai's car to the hospital so it won't take much time.
After we arrived at the hospital, we went straight to auntie's hospital room and knock on the door hoping for some response. But there are none. We tried knocking again but the result is just the same.
So we decided to go inside. Gladly the door wasn't locked, which is actually a little bit weird if there is no one else inside. Kai brought food for tae in case he forgot to bought dinner.
But then, i heard a sound of water running in the bath room. I tried to knock but there is no response.
"Tae? Are you in there?" I say. But it was quiet.
I knock again. Still no response.
"Kai. Could you check the bath room?" Someone's in there, and i think it's tae." I say.
"He's probably taking a shower." Kai say.
"I already knock but he didn't respond. Plus, i have a feeling that something's not right." I say.
"Don't over think, dah. He's probably just taking a shower and didn't hear you knock. It happen sometimes, you know." Jennie say.
And that is when i lose my self. I have this kind of feeling before. Before i lost the people who are precious to me. I am not losing more loved ones.
"No. Check him. Please. I don't think i can stand losing someone precious to me for the second time. And i know this is just a feeling. But i am sure that something's not right." I say.
Kai and jennie look at each other with confused faces. But then kai decided to follow what i said. He was about to kick the door, when he accidentally twist the door knob and it opened.
Wait. It didn't lock?
Kai went in the bath room and suddenly....
"Tae?!" He shout.
Jennie and i quickly went inside only to see the unconscious tae lying on the floor. His skin was pale. Seeing that scene, i froze. Again, my feelings proved that it is right.
"Call the nurse!" Jennie shout. With trembling legs, i ran towards the phone that it one the table and dial the front office.
[Hello, front office here. How may-]
"Help! Room thirty six, there is someone unconscious! Please send help quickly!"
Just before one minute, the nurses came over and took tae to the care unit. Jennie and kai went there, but my legs just won't cooperate with me. It keeps trembling.
"Haah.... What is this? My parents died, tae's mother's in a coma, and now even tae is unconscious?" I mumbled.
"This is tiring....." I say.
I took a deep breath, wipe away the tears that tainted my cheeks, i stand up and went to catch up with jennie and kai.
I ask them where they are and went to the room jennie say.
Tae was already conscious the time i got there.
"Hyun. Where have you've been?" Jennie say.
"Tae's mom's room." I say.
"The doctor say he's just tired and starving. He haven't eaten anything since yesterday." Kai say.
"Why did you starve your self?" I ask tae.
"My mom is in that condition. My dad didn't even answer my calls. If i can't save my mom, what is the point for me to keep on living? She is the only one i have left. If she can't be saved, then i might as well die-"
SLAP!!!
Jennie and kai was shocked. Even me my self is shocked. Hearing him complains and giving up his life like that, piss me off. Unconsciously i slapped him, real hard. After that he went silent. All of them went silent.
"Do you think you can just give up on your life like that? Do you think you are the only unfortunate kid out there who has her mother on the hospital bed? There are other people who has worsts conditions than yours. So don't act like you can't live anymore. Cause it's annoying."
That's it. I've said everything in my mind. I won't be surprised if after this our friendship crumbled. I just hate my self.
"Dahyun? Why did you...?" Jennie was in shock. Well, i can't blame her. It's the first time i have ever lost control of my self. I have never been this angry before.
"What do you know about it?! Do you know how it feels to almost lose someone you love?! When you can't even do anything to save your love ones?!" Tae suddenly shout as tear started to flow down his cheeks.
I can see that jennie and kai are feeling pity for him, but me, i just feel more annoyed. I've been trying to keep my self from exploding, but his words just make my last patience disappear.
"Then let me ask you, DO YOU KNOW THE FEELING OF LOSING THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE MOST?! ALMOST LOST THE PERSON WHO IS PRECIOUS TO YOU?! DO YOU KNOW THE FEELING OF BEING LEFT ALONE IN THIS WORLD?! DO YOU KNOW THE FEELING OF LOSING BOTH OF YOUR PARENTS IN ONE DAY?! WELL DID YOU EVER HEAR ME WHINE?! HAVE YOU EVER SEE ME CRY?! HAVE YOU EVER SEE ME GIVING UP ON MY LIFE?! YOU ARE JUST A SELFISH BRAT WHO ONLY FOCUS ON YOUR SELF!" I shout before i storm out from the room.
"Dahyun, wait!" I could hear jennie calling me. But i can't go back. I don't want to go back.
to be continue.........
