This is where Jein now sets foot, facing firmly towards a multi-storey building, perhaps not reaching 10 stories high, but this is high enough for a hospital building.
Let's from now on don't mention it so formally anymore, not with teacher Han or Miss Han. Jein sounds better.
Jein reminisced about some of his past, the memorial that he remembered so quite beautiful and unforgettable for him. Remember, a good friend when he was in elementary school. The boy is grumpy, cold, and he is a friend who always looks after Jein.
During school, sometimes there are seniors who can be said is Jein's upperclassman ever do bullying, tease Jein, disturb Jein who is playing at rest, pick up Jein's provisions, and pick up Jein's provisions, pulling the bag and all sorts of things that could make Jein upset, angry, and even cry, were often done by the seniors, Jein, who was very young at about 7 years old, could only cry without any desire to complain to the teacher.
But the bullying did not last long, because a boy came to defend Jein actually he was a classmate of Jein, Jein had seen it, only the boy was too quiet, too quiet, not so friendly, so cold and never seen mingling with other friends. From then on the boy began speaking a language that Jein thought was very adult-sounding to a child their age. The boy tells Jein not to be afraid anymore, he will take care of Jein when the seniors will bother him again, so Jein is just enough to be by his side, Jein would be safe with him. From that moment on Jein felt so protected no longer to be afraid every time he was at school, because he was always with the boy, wherever Jein went must be at a distance of view. If you go to the toilet, Jein will go alone. And from that moment on they became very close, like inseparable friends.
Until that happened, come, the boy was suddenly attacked very brutally while at school of course it was the result of the actions of the seniors who did not accept because the boy acted pretentious hero, he said, making a furore in his time, even to make the headmaster intervene just to solve the problem because the boy's parents feel unacceptable and sue the attackers, he said, jein was later recognized as the source of the problem so Jein was eventually transferred by his parents to their village. Leaving his best friend, his protector, until now Jein has never heard anything more about his best friend. Jein had never said thank you to the boy.
Jein exhales, expels oxygen that once entered his lung cavity and then replaces it by inhaling new, fresher oxygen, enjoying the breathing process as usual. Remembering it sometimes makes you feel claustrophobic and funny, because he has gone through such times.
Located right in front of a hospital building, staring at the reflection of glass that is quite high and dazzling because of the sunlight.
Gong Tae Hospital. The place where Jeon was taken care of.
Jein had asked about some things with Seokjin, not so much but enough to know in what room Jeon was in. Until now Jein knew where Jeon's room was, stepping his feet in doubt but surely, like going to meet someone who was so important to him, someone he never met for a long time, he felt like he was pounding when he had met Jeon several times, the father of Ahra-His disciples. He shouldn't have to be too nervous, it's true he's met Jeon before.
The woman now knocks on the door of a room several times, applying other polite teachings like a teacher. "Excuse me." he checked, afraid if Jeon was asleep and resting.
His mind just automatically counted, waiting for Jeon's response, seconds one, two, three......... Ten, eleven.... Up to twenty.
Jein did not find an answer, so he felt he had to knock on the door again. His fist which was still floating in the air was floating almost smelling the door leaf suddenly came to a halt, after hearing.
"Miss Han?"
Jein turned his head straight back and found Jeon standing not far from him with one hand immediately pushing the infusion stick he was wearing.
Jeon himself had just come from outside looking for fresh air that could make his tangled mind clear again, then when he came back he saw Jein standing in front of his bedroom door, seen wearing casual clothes very casual not as usual when being a teacher, Jeans-t-shirt-outer so looks like a girl who wants to visit her boyfriend.
"H-hallo." said Jein somehow Jein's lips suddenly confused, feeling nervous had hit him for no apparent reason.
Jeon who was confused just stared at Jein in silence as if he was guessing something, next to his eyebrows raised. "Hooked me?" jeon asked when he saw a hand that Jein had brought.
Jein nodded, "Yes, I brought him some pears, and an apple. To you." replied Jein, really his expression must have looked so strange by now, forcing a smile for the sake of looking as friendly as ever even though his heart was almost slipping out of place.
Jeon smiled, then walked back into his room, followed by Jein who helped Jeon open the door.
Meanwhile Jein was still trying to be calm, controlling himself who had become so extremely nervous, covering it up to be invisible. "You went out alone?" jein asked trying to break the mood.
Jeon who had returned to his bed and sat there began to set his eyes on Jein who had visited him, Jeon had felt strange before because Ahra's teacher suddenly came to look so caring now.
"Eum.. A little stuffy in the room kept, wanting to get some fresh air" Jeon replied, although Jeon was actually tired of being in the hospital, but he had no choice.
"You need a break to recover quickly. Don't stay outside for too long, don't make yourself feel exhausted." Jein said just like that, as if he was advising his own friends not to stubborn when sick.
Jeon became self-absorbed upon hearing that. Feeling like there was someone who cared so much about him, watching him.
Jein then approached the nightstand not far from Jeon's bed to put the fruits he brought to Jeon there. Jeon himself had become so attentive to Jein's movements now, making the strange feeling even stronger Jeon felt.
But the thought was hastily removed Jeon, considering that the woman in front of him is now a former fiancee of someone he hated so much, but did not deny that the woman could have been a victim, he said, hurt by Taehyung. Cheated. Jeon really hated it.
The sudden question instantly made Jeon aware of his daydream. "Apple. I want an apple." Jeon answered without thinking, then just took the apple Jein took for him, biting and chewing it. Trying to shift his mind, getting rid of any silly thoughts so as not to make himself feel awkward.
But Jeon forgets something, forgets that Jein has a really good ethic, visits a nobody Jeon, Jeon should be grateful for that one thing.
"Miss Han, thank you for visiting me. You tau? I have no one but my daughter Ahra, but you really care, I feel so touched. Thank you." Jeon said, one hand holding the apple up showed that he was also grateful for the fruit, not forgetting the best smile he could show.
Good, Jeon has just stated that his own life is miserable, even in front of Jein who is not a nobody. It looks sadder and more supported by the situation and conditions he is now facing. Alone, not having anyone by his side.
"No. I should be the one to thank you."
Jeon who was busy chewing stopped just like that, looking back at Jein.
Chuckles at feeling the woman is making a joke, mocking Jeon. "Whatchu mean? Obviously you're the one who visited me when you should be thanking me." Jeon thought that Jein thought. Very silly.
But back to waking up and feeling strange, realized Jein no longer uses the formal word like you or me.
The next second Jeon saw Jein raving his bag, checking something so agitated, very quickly then taking out an object. Stretched out his hand that held something to Jeon and opened it right in front of Jeon's face.
Jeon had felt confused once before, re-examining what he meant, so that he could recall the object, the object in Jein's hands. Both of his eyes were perfectly widened, rounded and looked so big. Looking at Jein in disbelief.
A necklace with a pendant shape that has a small photo in it, looks very old, but still looks so good because it may be Jein keep it well.
"This? Where'd you get it?!" jeon asked, looking at Jein so intimidatingly. Feel very surprised.
It belonged to Jeon, obviously it belonged to him, of course Jeon remembered it very well, something so precious to him and Jeon had lost it that he was almost annoyed to death at that time. The relics of the late mother. Jeon had always looked after it well, but it had disappeared along with his friend who had also disappeared first.
Powerless, Jein's eyes suddenly glazed over. Like he's really back to finding his old friend, his protector. "I'll give it back to you, "Jein's one hand grabbed Jeon's hand and put the necklace there. "For a long time no see Kookie-ya." at the end of the day the word just came out.
Jeon was silent, his brain suddenly stopped working.
But Jein certainly did not feel so comfortable with Jeon's residence. "Sorry, I brought it because I didn't get to give it back to you first, I found it in the park, after the attack. It looks like it fell off you." Jein narrated, telling stories as if Jeon had realized everything, as if nothing had happened, even though Jeon was still very surprised.
Jein knew the boy always wore the necklace first, and proudly said it was a gift from his dead mother. Of course Jein felt that the necklace must be very valuable so Jein decided to keep it because he no longer had the opportunity to return it. But now he can give it back. So relieving.
Jein was startled by Jeon's sudden action of pulling his hand, more precisely the wrist. "Who are you?!" jeon asked, his tone of voice so dislike. It was so cold that even Jein felt goosebumps, a little scared.
Jein's hand trembled involuntarily, Jeon's eyes gaze so completely frighteningly not as warm as before. "K-cookies.. You're making me t-fear." Jein was stuttered.
Until the unexpected makes Jein surprised half to death, Jeon again pulled him but into his arms. Hugged Jein so tightly.
"K-kook.."
"Shut up!" sela Jeon's. "Don't talk!"
What happened to Jeon, making Jein feel very confused, but his hands did not escape to reply and hug Jeon. Jein has missed her best friend a lot.
His thoughts regarding the former Taehyung woman attached to Jein simply vanished, no longer being cared for. There is only a crybaby girl who has long wanted to protect, even with her body being destroyed.
Jein faintly felt her shoulders had gotten wet, feeling like Jeon had cried. Jeon missed him that much. That is their friendship.
