CHAPTER 12.2 : THE UNEXPE (1/1)

AN update!!! *Squeal* Phew, at last people!Sorry, your author is so lazy in updating and going to be busy AGAIN! Sigh, when will i ever going to rest? So here it is!~~~ Hyukjae’s POVDonghae took a seat beside me and dozed off almost immediately. Perhaps the effect from the medicine he’s taking.“Do you leave anything in your room?” Sungmin turned his head to the back seat and asked me.I shook my head. “I guess no. I think I’ve brought everything.” I checked on my bag. Yeah, everything’s here. I gave a nod at Sungmin and he gave a signal to Kyuhyun to start driving. And with that, we left the hospital ground. The journey supposed to be quiet… Okay, not if this certain maknae know how to shut his mouth. “Hyung, why are you blushing? It’s obvious on your milky skin.” Kyuhyun said. Oh, shit, did he know? I could tell he’s smirking.“Mwo? Uh, i-it’s just…  It’s hot, yup, it’s so hot today. Can’t you feel it? Right, hyung?” I was referring to Sungmin and hope that he’ll help me. But, obviously—not.“I don’t think so, Hyukjae.” He shook his head.“I already turned the air conditioner to maximum.” He stepped on the brake as the traffic light turned red. Then, he spun his head and stared at me and Donghae.“W-what?”He smirked. “Uh uh, now I knew. No wonder. Looks like Donghae hyung really can’t let you go of you.” He grinned evilly. I could feel my face heated up. Darn this maknae!Throughout our journey, I can’t help to blush continuously, mostly perhaps I got teased by the evil maknae and the worst thing is Sungmin hyung kept on laughing. Oh, forgot to mention. Donghae slept all the way and he held my hand like there’s no tomorrow and also the source of my pink face, I guess. Hey, it’s not just because he held my hand; it’s because of that the stupid devilish maknae with his dirty little words that made me pink! “Donghae, wake up, we’re here.” I shook his shoulder. He groaned and opened his eyes slowly. Sungmin hyung opened the door and he readied the wheelchair outside.He looked in pain for a minute or so. It’s been four days since, um, I, no, we fell and rushed to the hospital. Donghae got a severe but not a life threatening injuries. He had two fractured ribs, a misplaced joint or bones I should say; in his right arm, and severe looking bruises. He had bandages covering all over his abs, right leg and a sling around his neck to support his broken arm. Gosh, I felt guilty seeing him in that condition. If not for me…“Hyukjae, help me to bring Donghae to the wheelchair.” Sungmin asked, interrupting my thoughts. I just nodded and put one of his left arms on my shoulder. Then, Sungmin hyung pushed him into the castle mansion while Kyuhyun brought all the bags together with me into the mansion. “How’s his condition, Mr. Hoon?” Kyuhyun asked. He’s one of the doctors who work inside the Cho’s hospitals and apparently he’s the family doctor for the Lee’s.“Glad no serious injuries that could damage his inner organs although he broke some bones.”“Mr. Hoon, you said the exactly same things the doctor in the hospital said. I was asking about his condition as in how long he’s going to stay on bed.”“Don’t be rude Kyuhyun.” Sungmin sent a glare to him.“It’s okay. I’m used to it already.” Mr. Hoon smiled. Kyuhyun lifted one eyebrow to Sungmin just to annoy him. He glared.“I had to check on him every day though and change the bandages, one more week and he can walk.” We nodded.  “And don’t forget to put ice once in a while to soothe the swollen part especially the broken arm.” He reminded.“Thanks, Mr. Hoon.” Donghae spoke. “Oh, and please check on this young man’s injury here too.” He motioned to me.“No problem, Mr. Lee.” He walked towards me and checked on my condition. “You can put this one off after three days and don’t forget to put on some medicine so that it won’t leave a scar.” He said.“Oh? That fast?” I retorted.“Don’t give the surprising look. You’ve been sleeping for three days, hyung. Didn’t I tell you that?” Kyuhyun suddenly interrupted. I widened my eyes.“Did I?”“Actually, yes, Hyukjae.” Sungmin answered. Wow, I slept for that long?! First in my life history!“So, Sungmin and I want to have a lunch out together. Bye~” Kyuhyun suddenly dragged Sungmin to the door. “W-wait Kyu! We can’t just leave them!” Sungmin yelled.“Oh, they’ll manage, Minnie,” Kyuhyun retorted.“B-but—“, His words were halted by a short kiss from Kyuhyun. Great, they’re doing it in front of our very own eyes. “Okay, hyungs! Have a great time! Get well soon so that I don’t have to waste my time babysitting you~”“Yah! Kyuhyun!” I yelled and he just laughed. Donghae just chuckled weakly. I could understand that he didn’t regain much energy yet. Kyuhyun slammed the door and we’re left alone. Together.“So, you’re going back?” Donghae asked.I hesitated a while and answered him, “Well, I don’t know yet.”“Go and get some rest then.” I nodded. I excused myself and went outside. I scrolled down the names in my phone and when I found the name, I pushed the green button and waited for the other line to pick up.“Hello, Hyukjae!“Hello, Noona, I think I’m going to stay here for a little while. So, don’t worry about me.”“Oh? Here is where?”“I’m in the Donghae’s place.” She chuckled in the phone.“Make sure you’re not so hard with him and take good care of him. I heard his injuries were serious. Send my regards to him. All the best young brother.”“Aish! Yah! Noona, you don’t even ask about my condition. I’m injured too you know.”“You just had a little knock on your head. What’s there to worry about?” This sister of mine, can’t she ever showed a little worried about me?“Fine. Whatever.” I pouted. She laughed hardly on the other line. Lucky sister! “One more thing,” I broke the laughter, “don’t tell mom about this. She’ll worrying sick about me if she knew.”“Don’t worry, I won’t. I promise. It’s a good thing too that you decided to stay there for a while since I can get off babysitting you when mom’s gone.” Then I heard her squeal. “Omoo, Donghwa replying my message! Okay, bye, Hyukjae.” I was about to retort back when she hung up the phone. Seriously, just by this one sister never fail to piss me off and to top it all, FLIRTING?!! Forget about that. “Not going back?” Donghae asked immediately upon seeing me entering his room, his eyes were on the novel but then he put it down beside him and tilted his head; facing me.I shook my head. “I just called Noona. I’ll stay with you, here.” I said it with my head down. “Don’t get me wrong. It’s just that I have to do it to overcome my guiltiness. Nothing more. So, let me help you with your daily needs.”“Are you okay with that? I do have maids around here. I can ask Leeteuk-hyung to arrange it for me.” Leeteuk? Hyung? Who’s that? Brushed it off.“Just take this offer as a way to repay you in well… uh… saving me from the fall. And it’s kind of rude to just leave you even though you have your doctor and maids or assistant but I do have every right to take care of you. At least until you can walk. I hate to be in debt with you especially YOU and to think about it, I still owe you a sum of money in which you’ll have it in advanced, I promised.” I cleared my throat and with determination, I said, “I will be here even if you force me to get out to get some rest and so whatever.” He laughed real hard. Did I say something wrong?“Just look at you face.” He laughed again. “Why are you getting so work out to explain everything to me?” He tried so hard to suppress his laugh. “Oh, ouch my abdomen!” he touched his stomach and moaned in pain. I panicked and run to his side just to make sure he’s okay.“I’m sorry, must have been laughing too much.” He looked straight into my eyes and pulled my chin with his fingers, bringing me closer to his face. “I grant access for you to take care of me. You’re my personal maid after all.” He released my face and smiled teasingly. I could feel my heart thumped rapidly upon hearing his words. Damn, heart, don’t ever flutter at his words! “Dozo yoroshiku, Hyukkie!”Then, we got interrupted by knocks on the door.“Come in!” Donghae shouted. The massive bedroom door was opened and revealed two young maids with trays of porcelains with a trolley coming in. “Young master, here’s your lunch. Especially healthy food made for you to get better. We have—“, they halted their words when Donghae rose up his hand; signaling them to stop. “It’s okay you can go now. And one more thing, can you please bring in another set of lunch? I’ll eat with my friend here.”They bowed and silently leaving the room. Donghae’s POVI stared at Hyukkie and gave him an order. “So, my personal maid, even without the outfit, can you please kindly served my lunch?” I eyed him.“Don’t get too wrap up.”  He hissed. I love to see his irritation expression plastered on his face. He immediately set up the cutleries, open up the pot’s lid, poured a fresh orange juice and served me on bed. I smirked. “What?” he asked.“I want to be fed by you.” He rolled his eyes in disbelief. “You’re 18 and you can use your left arm to eat. Don’t be a baby.” I replied, “But you had a promise.”“I said I’ll take care of you not babysitting you.” I will make you do it for me anyway!“It’s the same thing. Ouch!” I held my arm and made a twisted expression; as if I’m in pain.“Aish, arasseo, arasseo! I’ll feed you.” He took a spoon and scooped the chicken porridge. “Now, say ‘aahh’.” I opened my mouth and taste the porridge. I never knew the porridge that I used to taste would be this yummy! Most likely perhaps it’s Hyukjae’s. Then, an idea popped into my head.“Ouch, it’s hot!” He looked panic. He handed up a glass of fresh orange.“Oh, sorry, I-I’ll blow the heat away the next time.” He puffed his cheeks and innocently blew it away for me. So cute, I thought. Before I could think, I pulled him and kiss him on the cheek. He shivered a little and dropped the spoon on the floor.“Yah! What’s that for?” He touched his cheek.“Just be grateful that you had a kiss from the hottest guy on earth and that porridge really tastes good when you feed me.” I smirked. “Don’t try to change the sub—“, He wanted to argue back but then there’s another knock on the door.“Young master, here’s another set of lunch you asked for.” I beamed immediately.“Eeteuk-hyung! Come on in!” The door opened and here he was standing, with a black suit and a tray of food on his hand.  I could sense Hyukjae became tense. “Greetings, young master. How are you feeling?”“Much better although I had to be more careful with my wounds and broken bones.”“Great to hear that and I believe that this lunch is for your friend.” He placed the tray on the table nearby.“I’m sorry to trouble you and yes it is.” I gestured Hyukjae to come near me. I held his hand but he didn’t protest. “Hyung, this is Hyukjae. Hyukjae, this is our house’s butler, Park Jung Su but people called him Leeteuk and for me, it’s Eeteuk hyung.”“Annyeong, Mr. Park.” He bowed a little. Leeteuk let out a small chuckle. “No need to bow to me, Hyukjae. Just call me Leeteuk hyung. And I believe we’ve already met before right?” He smiled and showed his dimple while rose up one of his eyebrows.“Oh, you two met before?” I was a bit surprised.“True. I don’t recognize him at first because of his attire, but his gesture and face didn’t really change. Even without make up, I could see that he’s still pretty, even as a boy.” I glanced at Hyukjae. He’s indeed pretty. “I might even fall for him, you know, Hae.” He continued. I threw my deathly glares in which he found it amusing. I snorted.“So… You’ve seen him hyung? But the only time he’s in this house is when—““—I’m in the maid uniform. Yes.” Hyukjae suddenly spoke up. “Uh, uhm, Leeteuk hyung, could you please—“, Hyukjae continued but his words was cut.“No worries. I will keep it as a secret and even if it blew, it’s not going to be a problem because I’m going to take care about it especially under young master’s order.” He winked. He knows me really well.“Thank you.” He sighed in relieved. He looked more relax right now. Leeteuk smiled. “I’ll take my leave young master.” He bowed and walked towards the door. But before he walked out, he said something that left an undefined expression on Hyukjae’s face.“Oh, one more thing, young master, don’t be too harsh on him.” And he winked playfully. Sheesh, he really know how to tease the boy beside me. And I think I want to play along too. “Let’s see if I can make it through.” I played with Hyukjae’s finger. Then Leeteuk left the room.“So, why are you so afraid of people knowing you’re a maid in here?” I broke the silence. He pulled his hand. “It’s not like they are going to eat you or anything.” I continued.He replied, “Well, firstly, my mom said she will replace her with her DAUGHTER. Secondly, only GIRLS are allowed to work here. Third, if they ever find out I’m a BOY dressing up to be a GIRL, I’m going to be fired and I don’t want that to happen especially when I know I don’t really have higher chance of getting the money that I’m paying you other than this place. Is that enough?”“I have the upper power here so they’re not going to fire you, my personal maid.” I smirked.“Well, I don’t want to be the source of mirth or mock if this news reach the other maids or worst, our schoolmates and that includes your FANS. I hate to be in the circle of that.”“Well, at least that way, you will be isolated and I will be more than grateful.” Hyukjae’s POVWhat?? Me? Isolated? Did he want me to be alienated from everyone?! So, he’s happy with me like that huh? I could feel myself burning.  Aish, this boy, never know how to think of other’s feeling and just blurted out anything he ever thought.“Yah! What do you mean by that? So, you’re happy seeing me in that pathetic condition? Tch, unbelievable.” I crossed my arms in frustration. “I know, compared to you, I’m just a mundane, typical commoner that could be found anywhere. Sorry for taking up place in this world.” I murmured. But, what he told me totally shocked me.“So that I can keep you alone for myself.” He gave a meaningful stare. I could feel my heartbeat fastening its pace.“W-what?”“It’s easier for you to finally become mine. And no one will interrupt or planning to take away from me again. You promised me though.” I blushed at the statement. But, what did he say before doesn’t really make any sense. Promise? What he’s talking about?“I-I don’t know what you’re talking about.”“So, you haven’t remembered it yet?” He asked. His voice sound disappointed. I stared at his suddenly sadden eyes. “I guess you don’t.” He sighed.“Is this a play set up by you or do you know something that I don’t?” I asked. The curiosity built up within me. There’s an urge on getting onto this question. He would be lying but I knew this time it’s not. I just knew it. There’s a feeling that forced me to force Donghae to speak out. There’s something in his voice. There’s something in the words he said. There’s something… about… what I don’t remember.“So, you really want to know?”  ~~~Gah! there it is! Sorry for the errors especially Grammar and Tenses! About the tenses, sometimes, i mix up on using them. Actually, i want to show that it's what they're thinking at that time.
