Where am I?It was white. All white. He was inside a white mist, for the only thing he could see was just that white. It was white before him, beside him, behind him, on top of him, wherever. It was nothing, really nothing but white.As he perked up forward, his ears caught a faint sobbing. It was sad and lost and he suddenly felt the urge to reach that voice. Something inside him didn't want to hear that sad voice, that he wanted to embrace it and turned the sadness into happiness instead. As the urge became overbearing, he stepped his feet forward and tried to reach its source. However, as fast as he tried to come closer to the voice, it was nowhere to find. He desperately looked around, scanning his surrounding. Still the same upsetting white mist did he see everywhere.Please let me see .... Let me know ....As his prayer finished, the white mist was slowly moving away and disappearing. The colours other than white started to appear in the scene. He huffed a sigh, relieved but also worried. Along with the sight, the voice and sound slowly regained their momentum. It was louder than before. In fact, it was wailing and screaming in grief and agony."No! JOONMYEON! Please .... Please .... No .... Don't go ...."Joonmyeon? Who is that?The wailing kept continuing, yet he felt beyond troubled now."I'm sorry! Please don't leave me.... I love you...."Huh?Joonmyeon?It's me!I AM JOONMYEON!And all the mist disappeared in a snap. In front of him was the most horrifying and heartbreaking scene he had ever witnessed in his life.He himself was lying, in someone's hug, covered and smeared by blood. There were wounds everywhere on his body, where bare skin was scraped and flowing red thick blood. Some white bones protruded from his limbs. He was wasted, lying there immobilized, unconscious.And lifeless.He scurried to his body, which was still hugged tightly by the still wailing young man."Joonmyeon .... Please .... Wake up .... Please ...."Jongin was crying his heart out. He was defeated into sob as he pressed the side of his face to the other's. Joonmyeon was shattered into pieces, seeing the love of his life crying a river."I am already... dead...."Joonmyeon collapsed to the ground. Staring at his own body there, no longer a living human, was enough to torture him with an unbearable sadness. His chest was tight and there was something burning on his eyes. Joonmyeon sobbed, but other than voice nothing else came from him. His tears had vanished, he couldn't shed even a single tear. He was not a human anymore, he was just a spirit, a wandering soul.Why should I die?If the pain hadn't been excruciating enough, Jongin's teary, remorseful face was quick to crush his heart more painfully. All the memories from the moment before he died had recollected themselves. It was another kind of pain, as he remembered exactly what happened before he let his last breath out. However, the small sting lasted just a moment. It all felt insignificant as Joonmyeon examined Jongin's face. It was saddening to see Jongin being sad, it as tragic to see Jongin grieving like that.Joonmyeon was about to touch Jongin when he felt his body tingling in a weird sensation. He was simply stunned for a moment as his senses were being penetrated through. He held a breath as two shoulders and a back emerged from where his face was supposed to be.Something, or someone, had just passed through him."Sir, please let the man out. We had to examine him.""No! No! It's all my mistake! It's all my fault!""Sir, please.""GET AWAY FROM ME!"Two pairs of arm pulled Joonmyeon apart from Joonmyeon. The medic who was talking to Jongin quickly gabbed Joonmyeon body, trying not to care about Jongin, who resisted very hard, who was screaming like a wounded animal and and trying to get free from the officers with all his might."LET ME GO! LET ME GO!"Joonmyeon saw it all. His heart was not one anymore, it had been shattered. There was wrenching pain inside him to see his lifeless body being lifted, very gently, by the medics who then performed a series of first aid program. He watched as his shirt being ripped and a defibrillator was put on his chest. He was supposed to feel the jolt, when the electric shock was sent to revive his stopped heart, but he felt nothing. He could only witness his body jerking up before dropping down in a sudden. Nothing happened. No signs of life occured.After nine times of electrick shock, the medic who performed the CPR faced his friend and sighed."He's dead."Upon listening to his words, Jongin froze in his frenzy. A second later, he would have hit the ground if only he hadn't been caught by two medics who were keeping him in lock all the time. They lifted Jongin's body and rushed to put him in an emergency bed by the ambulance. Both of them shook their head as they saw the mess in front of them."You know, Hyukjae, I never thought that this would happen to Dr. Jongin. He and Joonmyeon-ssi were the most perfect couple in the world I have ever seen in my life.""Me too, Donghae. If only he hadn't cheated on Joonmyeon-ssi, none of this would have happened."Their eyes trailed to Joonmyeon's body who had just covered by a white cloth by Yunho, their senior. The defibrillator had been taken away, all the life sustaining devices were gone. Yunho called both Donghae and Hyukjae to lift Joonmyeon's body into the ambulance. A second later, they lifted Jongin's body and put his bed side by side with Joonmyeon's.The door of the ambulance closed. All the medics headed to the hospital, leaving the cops investigating the area.Joonmyeon watched as the ambulance got smaller and finally disappeared. He closed his eyes. There was a slight breeze blown to him and his body transformed into a smoke, before he dissolved into nothingness. *   *   * November 24, 2014 What a very exhausting life I have been passing. I am so sorry for just updating, I was really trapped in routines and everything. However, I will try y best to finish all my stories so I won't make you all suspended in annoyance and grief of waiting.One more chapter before this story ends. I am sorry for all of you want Joonmyeon to stay alive, he just needs to go. It is cruel, but it is the way it is. Jongin will learn, surely. He will regret what he has done.Still waiting for some comments here. They are therapeutic to me, more than anything. Schandelierre
