Killer Chapter Three

Chapter three: Jung Min’s absence

“What’s wrong with you? You don’t look well…”

And he was right, she wasn’t feeling well, “Oppa…. I…..” She fell down on the floor and luckily he managed to catch her in the arms, she was unconscious.

“Yah Kimmi, wake up!!!” he shouted and hit her face softly. He touch her forehead and found her having high fever probably due to yesterday’s rain. He has to take her back to back to her house; he carried her in his car and fetches her back. He put her on the bed and put a towel over her forehead to cool her body temperature down. After that, he went down and cook her some porridge. Kimmi woke up and found herself in her own room, wondering who could have brought her back here.

“I see you’re awake,” Hyun Joong smiled as he enters her room.

“Oppa, you brought me back home?” he nodded, “but how you know my address?”

He sure never thought that she’ll ask about it, “I ask the teacher about it,” he was brilliant, “Come on, I made some porridge for you, you’re having fever,” he pull her up the bed then into the kitchen and force her to eat.

“Gomawo oppa for everything today and for your info, I hate plain porridge so next time might wanna add something inside,” she smiled, “Oh yeah… Welcome to our class,” she smiled brighter.

“Aishh… You’re sick and you can still smile, anyways no gift for me?” he joked.

She put down the bowl and went near to him and gave him a light kiss on his cheeks. Hyun Joong wasn’t prepared for this though, she kissing him.

“I gotta go now, I got something to do,” he said and leaves the house.

Kimmi was about to go upstairs and continue sleeping but someone keep pressing the doorbell like there’s no tomorrow, “Yah why are you pressing like this? It’ll spoil soon…” she was sick so her voice can’t really raise high.

“Why aren’t you in school today? I thought I send you there today,”

“I didn’t feel well so I came back…” she closes the door after he enters.

“What? Are you alright?” he quickly carry her up and brought her in the room, “You alright?” he touched her face, “You’re having fever, have you eaten?”

“I’m fine oppa, I had my porridge already….” she lay down on the bed.

“He cooked it for you?”

“Huh? Oh, you mean Hyun Joong oppa, yeah he cooked it for me but it’s plain porridge,” she smiled.

“When did you both become so close? You’re calling him oppa,”

“He’s older than me Jung Min oppa; of course I have to respect him right?”

“Yes you have too but I want you to stop seeing him,”

“Why? I thought you both are in good terms,”

“Um…. Yes we are, just stop seeing him for your own good,”

“Fine but just for your information, he’s in my class now and sitting next to me,” She kissed him on the cheeks, “I love you oppa…. I always do…. I don’t know how you think about me but that’s how I feel,” she closes her eyes and sleep. Jung Min did not want to say about anything regarding she kissing Hyun Joong, he kiss her on the forehead and leave without saying goodbye or leaving a note.

For a week since she got sick, Jung Min never bothers to call her or even texting her. He was angry at her for kissing Hyun Joong; this was the first time he really gets mad of her.

Kimmi wasn’t able to concentrate in class thanks to Jung Min; Hyun Joong was helping her out with her homework’s as he picks it up quickly. Hyun Joong took the advantage since Jung Min wasn’t around her, he took her for dinner after school and he took her for movie during weekends. They would go to Namshan Towel to have a walk although it’s winter. Kimmi wasn’t enjoying it but somehow Hyun Joong has a way to make her smile until she’ll forget all the bad memories. For Jung Min, he spends his time at home, doing nothing but sleeping and eat for the whole week.

She went back home that night, thinking of not going back home yet. She wanted to see Jung Min badly, she was feeling lonely but with Hyun Joong around, she’ll feel the loneliness will be filled up. She took out her phone and dialed Jung Min’s number, not as she expected; the ringtone of Jung Min’s phone rings and she can hear it, he’s at her house. She quickly went and search for the sound and found him standing in front of her house door, taking something on his hand. She walk nearer to him and found him staring at her, she hate the awkwardness between both of them, she hate him never calls him.

He just enter the house and sat at the living room, not talking or anything, just close his eyes and sit there.

“May I know what you are doing here?” she said.

He kept quiet and continue meditate; she was getting pissed off so she went upstairs into her room. Jung Min realizes it and quickly follows her in and when she’s about to close the door, he put his hand and make himself hurt because she close the door too hard.

“Oppa are you alright? I go get the first aid kit,” she was anxious and panicked then quickly ran and gets the first aid kit.

Jung Min was in her room, lying down on her bed and looking at the ceiling full of stars that will glow in the dark. Kimmi enter the room and sat next to him, taking his injured hand and apply medicine onto it. She slowly caressed the wound and bandages it after applying the medicine.

“You’ll be fine soon, err…. go ahead and rest, I’ll rest in the guest room,” she put back the things in the first aid kit and plan to leave but Jung Min pull her back with his hand and he landed up on top of her.

“Oppa….” she looked into his eyes.

“Be quiet for tonight…” he kissed her on the lips and started to undress her like the few times he wanted but this time she never stops him.

He was worried at her, he stops and look at her, her eyes was staring at him, “Are you alright?”

“I’m fine oppa but just some question ….. Why didn’t you call or text me?”

“Sigh…..” he sat on the bed and lost the mood to do whatever he wants, “Did you know you hurt me by kissing him?”

“Kissing him? Who do you mean?”

“I mean Hyun Joong, you kiss him right?”

“It was just to thank him for taking care of me and welcoming him to our class, you’re jealous?” she puts her arms around him.

“Yes I am, happy?” he turns around and lay back on the bed,

The next morning, Kimmi found herself on the bed with Jung Min next to her sleeping soundly as usual. She quickly wakes up and did her morning rituals and went back the room seeing Jung Min on the bed looking at her.

“Morning there…” he smiled at her and pull her back on the bed, “I love you,” he planted a kiss on her forehead.

“I know… Go and change, I want to sleep,”

“Sleep again? Didn’t we just wake up?”

“We did but I’m still tired oppa….” she lay her head on the pillow and closes her eyes, forcing her to sleep.

Hyun Joong’s side….

‘I got to carry out the next step soon… I’m not letting this off that easily since I’m almost done with my first step….’ he told himself.

“Annyeong,” Hyun Joong called out.

“Morning there guy, so want to go out for a date?” a girl said to him when he just arrive at his place with Kimmi next to him.

“Sorry, I got a date today already,” he pushes Kimmi in his arm and smile. Kimmi was dumbfounded when she’s in his arm, looking at him and the girl who was in front of Hyun Joong.

“Oh, sorry for disturbing then,” she looked at Kimmi from her top to the bottom.

When the girl left, Hyun Joong quickly let her go as his heart was beating fast than usual, “Oppa, why is your heart beating so fast?” she ask him, smiling.

“Study!!!” he pushes her head towards the book in front of her, avoiding her question.

“Hmmm… Oppa likes me huh?” she joked.

Hyun Joong slightly blushes but it’s barely obvious, “Who wants to like you!!! Study!!!” he pushes her towards the book in front of her again.

“Oppa… You’re bad,” she pouted.

“Hahaha, dongsaeng-ah don’t pout ok? Not pretty anymore, oppa buy you lunch later ok?” he pleaded her.

“Gomawo!!” she was happy again, “kaja!!!” she drags Hyun Joong to the cafeteria.

‘This girl…. Aishh…. Really a mood maker, being with her is fun and the time passes fast too,’ he thought to himself as he chuckled.

He bought a set of hamburgers with fries and drinks like the way she like and sat on the cafeteria, eating happily with him making him wondering about the young days.

Flashback

“Oppa, oppa, I want that one,”

“Araso but no cold drinks ok? You got asthma,”

“Araso Harabuji!!!”

End of Flashback

After they had their lunch, they went back to their own home; it’s been a habit for Hyun Joong to send her back home since Jung Min wasn’t in the country for the whole week.

At Jung Min’s side

“Sir, they have been going out during your absence,”

“Ok, keep an eye on her, make sure she’s safe and I want a full profile about the guy,”

“Yes Sir,” the butler excused himself.

“Hyung, what is he really up to?” asked Jun.

“Maknae-ah, am I a useless guy?”

“Min-ah, why are you saying you’re useless? If you’re useless, dongsaeng wouldn’t fall for you, you’re not useless,” said Saengie.

He gave a deep sigh, “I feel like going back to Seoul now but I can’t leave my work at this state,”

“Don’t worry, we’re going back next week, she’ll be fine and I think he won’t lay a finger on her,” said Kyu.

“Why?” asked Jun.

“I had my men following her besides Minnie, he seems to like her very much too,” said Kyu.

Jung Min just gave a deep sigh and went back his room.

Kimmi’s side

“Oppa, where are we going now?”

“Going to have a jog since we’re boring now aren’t we?”

“Araso,” they changed into sport’s attire and started jogging. Hyun Joong was making fun and messing around with her happily.

“Dongsaeng-ah, kwenchana?” Kimmi was breathing heavily on the ground, clutching her chest with her hand.

“Kwen… Kwenchana oppa…” she took out the medicine from her pocket and inhales it.

“You have asthma?” Hyun Joong asked.

“It’s not serious but I can’t take drinks that contains lots of amount of ice,”

“Oh…” he patted her back, “Are you alright now?” You really seem familiar.

“Yes, can we go back home? I want to rest,”

“I’ll carry you back,” he gave her a piggy back ride as she rest on his shoulder, before even they reach back home, she fall asleep. He carries her back to her room and put her on the bed. He look at her, “You do looks like her a lot, why are you appearing in my life again?” he said softly then write a note and leave the house.
