Wait for you: Sequel

.12.

*Chaeyoung's POV*

Walking back home might not have been a brilliant idea. I'm pretty sure I was going to collapse the minute I touch my bed. At least her hand is comforting.

I squeezed her hand and she smiled at me.

"Chaengie"

"Hmmm"

"What do you think is the most wonderful thing about being alive?"

I smiled at her weird question and lightly shook my head.

"A wonderful thing? Hmmm.... Well I think it's that I get to feel things, enjoy nature, be happy and the most important thing is I get to watch a certain penguin laugh." I said and she smiled looking down.

"What about you?"

"Yeah me too, the fact that I get to experience so many emotions is just amazing to me. Chaengie I don't know how to say this but..."

"I can wait"

"My senior... Do you remember that night at the party?"

"Barely"

"He..." She stopped in her tracks and looked down again.

I'm getting a bad feeling about this.

"He tried to sleep with me, chaengie.. I." I hugged her before she could finish whatever she was saying. She sobbed at my hug and I patted her head. At that time I felt like I'm the most horrible person in the entire world because of how much I was oblivious to her emotions, how much I focused only on myself, how much selfish I was.

She was muttering so many words but the only thing that I could do was think.

Reaching home she slept on my bed but I couldn't sleep. At around midnight I woke up and grabbed myself a bottle of water from the refrigerator and thought. About everything. About emotions, feelings, about her actions.

Grabbing the keys to the car was something I did not remember doing. I did not even bother to look up the directions to his house. The time was the least of my worries because my blood was boiling.

Ringing the doorbell was another thing that came almost involuntarily. Coming outside he recognized me and I asked him to talk outside. He said yes and went inside again only to come out with a coat. Well I think chivalry died early for him because I was also freezing but he did not offer me any coat or blanket or coffee but I would not do it too if you show up at my house at 2 am.

I only realized I punched him after my hand felt the pain. I quickly regretted it when I realized he might have studied karate or taekwondo. Well it was too late now.

I kicked him down there and he yelled in pain but he quickly regained his strength which was pretty unexpected to me, I mean how would I know anyway. His punch knocked me down to the ground but I could avoid the kick. I grabbed his leg and pushed him causing him to fall down. I got on top of him and punched his face numerous times. I only realized now that I was yelling and crying the whole time.

After almost 5 punches he grabbed my hand and punched me again in my face. At this point my remaining strength had already left my body, I fell down from the impact and I could tell that my nose was bleeding. He kicked me on the stomach six times and I coughed blood.

"I didn't know Mina had a feisty one as her partner. I mean you could be a better one in bed."

I spat on his face and he laughed and wiped the blood from his face. He punched me in my eyes this time.

"Goodnight and tell her not to come to the university from Monday." He got up and walked inside.

I laid flat looking up and breathed out slowly as the pain started settling in.

Why am I being such an idiot?

Driving back home was really difficult especially with the giant ass headache, that I was certain was a consequence of my own actions. I stopped at a nearby shop and brought an ice pack along with some bandages, cotton and some antiseptic. After patching myself up I drove back really quickly as Mina was alone at home.

I locked the car and walked out and there at the entrance of the house stood one and only Myoui Mina. I smiled at her even with the pain in my nose. She crossed her hands when she saw me. I was about to go inside the house when she put a hand on the door frame blocking my entrance.

I did not look at her, I held the ice pack on my eyes and sighed. I rested my head on the doorframe.

"Mina, I-" I could not finish my sentence as she kissed me.

"I-"

"I love you Chaeyoung-ah!" I froze on hearing that but smiled a bit and I could care less about my nose right now. I kissed her again.

"I love you too Myoui" She laughed and we kissed again.

We were on the bed facing each other after almost an hour after I came back. She trailed her finger at my eyes and nose and I flinched a bit.

"Why would you put yourself through that?"

"To be honest I don't know. I hadn't thought about what I was going to do, I just did it. By the way you could have told me he studied Taekwondo." She laughed and I smiled seeing her laugh.

"Minari"

"Hmm"

"I have to tell you this, I'm not good at expressing myself-"

She put a finger on my lips.

"I know"

"What? How would you-"

"Chaengie anyone who know you could see through the happy facade you were showing."

I looked down.

"Don't worry. It really is okay. I mean we can't force you to express yourself more, can we? We lost a very important person from our life and nobody can blame you for feeling the way you are feeling. You don't have to explain why and how you are feeling to anyone, not even myself if you are not ready for it. Just know that I'm here for you whenever you want to talk."

We smiled at each other and I could see the warmth in her eyes.

"Sorry I got you fired" I chuckled.

"It's ok but don't please don't put yourself through that again Chaengie."

"I'm your knight in shining armour aren't I? I should be able to fight for you."

She smiled at me and I held her hand.

"But I know that you're more than capable of fighting them on your own, it's just that I couldn't control myself when I heard what he did to you, even though it was long time ago I still couldn't. I really am sorry Mina."

She interlinked our fingers and smiled at me.

"What would you do from Monday?"

"I don't know. I always wanted to own a dance studio, how about I do that?"

I smiled and nodded at her.

"Forgive me for my cheesiness but seeing you smile makes my heart feel full Minari." She looked down smiling and I laughed at her action.

"Aren't you a sweet talker?" I laughed.

"The one and only."

We just laid there looking into each others eyes and smiling like idiots.
