The Miracle We Met

Chapter 38 - First Trip in Seoul

"What are you doing here? Where is Chanyeol? How do you know this place?" I was shocked to see Suho infront of me. I have no idea how he knew that place, how he came there.

Suho, very calmly came and sat on the bench.

"Chanyeol has been on a hectic schedule these days as you know. He was not feeling well when he returned. I heard him telling Baekhyun to msg you that he won't be able to come today. Baekhyun texted and left the room."
He paused and then continued.

"An alarm was set in Chanyeol's phone which started ringing. He was sleeping as he took some medicine, I entered his room..turned off his alarm. I saw the name of this park on the alarm. I guessed that this must be the place so I came looking for it. And I was right." Suho said.

I got worried for Chanyeol and stood up to go when he said again,

"He is alright now and resting in his room. Don't worry. I'm here to talk to you as a friend for the last time. Don't I deserve at least this much?" Suho stopped me.

'Last time means' I thought. I sat again on bench and looked at Suho. He was not facing me and looking in front.

"It will be last time meeting you as a friend. Next time I will try my best not to come infront of you. If we came, by chance..it will be as a leader who is meeting his member's girlfriend."

I sat silently looking in the same direction where Suho was looking. Lights were on. It was completely dark by now. We just sat there without speaking to each other. We had lots of things to say to clear it out but still we were silent.

"Sorry" Suho breaked the silence.

"Again I'm sorry..for everything that you went through because of me. Like a coward, I ran away from the situation when you needed me the most."

After saying those things, he didn't say anything.

"You don't need to be sorry Suho." This time I broke the silence.

"It was not your fault. It was just the situation..which didn't go our way. I know you are a good person. I never blamed you for anything or thought anything bad of you. I forgave you long back when I accepted Chanyeol in my life. I took my time to accept everything and now it will be good if you too accept all these things. Stop blaming yourself. Nothing was in your hand. We can just say it was destiny or fate."

Saying all these things I stood up.

"I should go now. Good bye"

I started walking away slowly but stopped when I heard his voice again.

"I wish you good luck with Chanyeol. I hope he will not make the mistake which I made. I trust him for you."
Suho said and stood up too.

"Take care of yourself and be happy." That's all I could say and left.

Since the day I came to Seoul, I had a burden in my heart that how I will face Suho. But that day, my burden was lifted. I was feeling more free now. I wanted to say those things to Suho from a very long time and finally I said.

When I was walking away from Suho's bench. I heard a sound in the other side of the path, as if someone was walking on dried leaves. I looked in the direction of the sound but couldn't see anyone because of the darkness. I got afraid a bit and started walking very fast till I reached campus gate. I was literally running and before entering the gate, I stabilized my breath.

As I reached room, I took out my phone from my bag..saw missed calls from parents, friends and Chanyeol. His text was there saying he won't be able to come today. I called him but he didn't receive. I texted him that he should take care of his health and not to worry about me, I will be fine.
