He had (1/1)
Your POVI pull myself from my door and walk to my closet where I keep most of my childhood memories. I open it and on the door to see that, the letter is still in the slot that I placed it the day I moved in this dorm. On the front Hana was written in English letters making me laugh slightly. I smile and play with the envelope in my hands as I always have. I walk into my kitchen and place the letter on the island.I walk to the fridge and pull out something to drink not caring what it is. Still out of habit, I look down to see passion fruit bottled tea in my hand. I sigh and walk to my cupboard to see if I can just make some hot tea. I find some regular ginseng tea and just decide to make that since maybe I’ll be able to wrap my head around that Key is the little boy I knew when I was young.I hear someone knock at my door. I leave the letter there on the island not thinking anything of it. Standing there is Jonghyun alone.“Jonghyun can I help you?”“Yes, actually why did you break Key’s heart?”“What do you mean?”“Well you see Key’s mother called me up and told me to come over but not to tell Key which was a good hint it had to deal with a young girl that he had met at the hospital when he was young. When I got there she had handed me this,” he pulls out my marble, “a marble that Key had given to the girl. She said that the only person it could be was you. So would you like to explain to me?”“Okay so where should I start since you seem that you won’t leave.”“Well how about we sit down and talk.” I move aside and let him in. “Jung Ae, do you know that Key has had a thing for you since you two were young.”I shake and keep my head down.“He has and he didn’t like anyone until he met a girl he nicknamed barbarian only because no matter what he did she’d beat on him.”I jump up and defend myself without thinking twice, “what do you mean every time that asshole tried to talk to me he’d be telling me that I was ugly and ways ot make myself pretty?”“Wait you’re the barbarian and the girl from the hospital?”I nod my head, “I didn’t’ even know that Key was him back in highschool if I did I would have tried to be nicer to him and even tell him. Then maybe Key would have told me his advice nicely.”“You liked him didn’t you?”I nod my head, “Before he noticed me in highschool I had a crush on him even though he was girly. I thought he was cool from afar. Then when he noticed me he started being an asshole and I didn’t like him anymore.”Jonghyun starts laughing at me and I look at him confused, “He started saying those things because he didn’t’ know that you liked him. He wanted you to only look at him.”“What do you mean my friends told me it was easy to tell that I was watching him whenever he entered the room?”“Here let me tell you what he told me in his own words.”Flashback in Key’s POVIt was hard for me to not to look her way. Every time she laughed I smiled. I felt guilty because of Hana the first girl that I’d ever fallen for. The other day I caught her staring over at where my friends and I eat but I saw her looking at my best friend instead of me. I inwardly growl at the thought of her liking someone else. I want her to look at me.When I walked over to her she looked up at me and smiled like she’d do to everyone else.‘I’m like everyone else to her.’ I felt my heart break and I wanted to scream.When I told her that she should fix her hair color cause she looks ugly with it I wanted to hit myself but when I saw her the next day looking at me I couldn’t stop myself.”End of Flashback and Back to Your POVI look over at Jonghyun shocked, “If he liked me he should have just went, ‘Hi I feel weird saying this but when I since I first saw you I thought you were beautiful. I was wondering if you’d like to go out with me sometime?’ or something like that.”Jonghyun laughs as he looks over at me, “Wow you really are a romantic.”I nod as I look over at him, “Yeah I guess so. Wonder what he was going to say to apologize to me.”“If you want to know you should just go talk with Key. Maybe you can explain why you would beat him.”I look away, look at the marble, and realize that Key’s boy letter was on the island. I walked over to my island to my kitchen, pick up the letter, and stare at it. I become afraid of what it could possibly say.Jonghyun walks over to me and looks at the letter that has Hana on top.“Hana that was the name you told Key was yours right?”I nod, “His mother had given me it when I was admitted into the hospital again. I haven’t opened it even once. I keep pulling it out since she gave it to me but I can’t get myself to read it. In truth you’re the first person that has seen this letter.”“Do you want me to read it to you?”I look up at him shocked. I hand it to Jonghyun and sit at the island bar stools.When Jonghyun starts reading, I have a feeling by the end of the letter I’ll be crying,“Dear Hana, Hi, I don’t think you got my name with how you ignored me most of the time I was there. My name is Kim Ki Bum and I hope you remember it. Just like I’d like to know your real name so I can remember it. Still I think even if I learned your name, I would only call you Hana because it has a simple beauty in it just like you. Its odd writing this letter to you since I barely know you. I mean you didn’t even talk to me when we were sharing that room. I hope you keep that marble just roll it in your fingers and think of me when you're sad or lonely and I’ll take that all away. Just like I would if I was with you.Love,Kim Ki Bum”I don’t know when in the letter I started crying from loneliness and guilt as I whisper, “He didn’t need to tell me to do that I did anyways.”Jonghyun pulled me into a hug holding me against him, “It’s alright, Jung Ae. Stop crying please a girl like you shouldn’t’ cry.”“Jonghyun I can’t help it I feel guilty. I mean I beat Kibum and now I figure out that he was not just in my high school but he was the first person I fell for.”I start to cry more and that’s when I hear a knock at my door. I start to wipe at my tears and Jonghyun helps me by wiping the tears with a napkin that was on the island.I answer the door to find Key standing there with the others. They looked surprised to see Jonghyun in my dorm alone with me.Before I can say anything Key hits him and walks away. Everyone is shocked but not as much as I am. I look after Key and I just stand there with Jonghyun and after he stood up I ran towards the direction that Key had went. I didn’t know why I had a feeling I had to find him and explain but I wanted Key to know that I have eyes only on him just like when we were in high school.
