Chapter 8: Farewell

"YAH! YANG JUNGWON!!"
Heeseung punched him back as Jungwon fell to the ground.
LeeAh ran to them and shoved them away from eachother.

"WHAT THE HELL JUNGWON?!"
Jungwon looked up at her surprised.

"ME?! YOUR BOYFRIEND'S AN ASSHOLE!"
LeeAh glared at him and Jungwon gave her a hurt look.

"Go...home."
Jungwon scoffed and started walking towards the door. When he got out he slammed it.
LeeAh looked up at Heeseung, who's nose and lip was bleeding.
She covered her mouth as she looked at the wounds.

"Yah, are you okay?"
LeeAh brought her hands up and touched his forehead to see the wounds better.
Heeseung wrapped his fingers around her wrists and pulled them down gently.

"He's right, I was an asshole, don't get so mad at him."

"But-"

"I'll apologize, so you need to too."

-🌸-

The next few days no one saw or heard from Jungwon until Thursday when Jay jogged up to our table.

"You guys!! Jungwon's moving to New York with his aunt!"
LeeAh dropped her chopsticks and looked up at him.

"You're joking right?"
Jay shook his head, and in the very moment LeeAh got up and sprint to her car.



When she arrived at Jungwon's house she knocked on the door and waited for someone to answer.
A middle aged woman wearing a blue flannel and jeans opened the door.

"Hi, may I help you?"
LeeAh bowed to her.

"Oh Uhm, is Jungwon home?"

"I'm afraid not, I'm sorry young lady."
LeeAh tried to push down the lump in her throat.

"N-no it's fine, thank you!"
LeeAh got in her car and payed her head on her steering wheel.

"Where do I go now?"

-🌸-

LeeAh found herself sitting on the floor of Somin's bedroom.

"Why are you here so late again?"

"I-"
LeeAh began to cry right after she chocked on her words.

"Unnie! Why are you crying?! Was it Heeseung?! Did he do something to you?! How should we kill him? Pigs? Guns? Poisonous acid?"
LeeAh shook her head and smiled at Somin.

"No it's my friend, he's moving and I didn't even get to say bye.."

"WELL WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?! GO SAY BYE!!"

-🌸-
LeeAh was looking for the male for three hours already. She was jogging up the bridge about to give up when she saw figure that she could recognize anywhere.
Jungwon met eyes with her as she jogged up to him.

"How could you leave.....without even saying bye?"
Jungwon looked down at his shoes and shook his head.

"I'm sorry.."

"What for?"

"I'm sorry for butting into your relationship ship. I should've minded my own business......I like you, I really do, I was just jealous, so I screwed up."
LeeAh swear she saw a tear fall onto the ground.
He looked up at her like a lost puppy looking for his home.

"So, before I go....I know I don't deserve it but..."
Jungwon put his arm out as if he were asking for a handshake.
LeeAh giggled at the gesture.

"Is this like, the farewell of your secret crush?"
Jungwon didn't say anything and just looked at her, more tears forming in his eyes.
LeeAh smiled and lightly pushed away his arm as she wrapped her arms around his waist, her head on his chest.

"Take care of yourself Wonnie.....I love you."
Jungwon broke the hug and smiled at her.

"Farewell, Jang LeeAh."

-🌸-

Almost everything was cleared up, almost...

She rang the doorbell to Xiaoting's house.
When Xiaoting opened the door she automatically hugged her best friend.

"I'm so sorry....Xiao, please...."
Xiaoting wrapped her arms around her one and only best friend and cried.

"It's okay....I-I was dramatic."

"No shit you were."
Xiaoting broke the hug and they stared at eachother.
After about ten seconds they both burst into laughter.

"I love you rat."
Xiaoting smiled at LeeAh.

"I love you too roach."

-🌸-
LeeAh ran up to Heeseung and flung her arms around him.
"Hi!"
Heeseung was surprised but hugged her back.
"Hey, you're in a good mood."
Lee-Ah nodded as she sat on the bench looking at the sunset.

"So uh, I have this family thing next week. I was wondering if you'd want to come with me as my girlfriend. Only, this time, my......real......girlfriend?...."
LeeAh smiled like an idiot and intertwined their fingers.

"Is THE Lee Heeesung asking me out right now?"
Heeseung looked down at the ground as his face turned a faint shade of pink.

"I don't know......I'll have to think about it...."
LeeAh saw the slight bit of worry in the boy's eyes.
LeeAh leaned in closer and kissed his cheek.

"Of course I will dummy."
Heeseung looked at her and smiled.
He caressed her cheek with his hand and looked her in the eye.
"I love you.."
"I love you more."
Heeseung pressed their lips together and ran his fingers through her hair.
Between kisses he started talking.
"Your hair's soft.."
Heeseung felt her smile through the kiss.

This, is what LeeAh needed, his love, to fill the emptiness in her life.
LeeAh broke the kiss and they both caught their breath.

"You wanna know something stupid?"
Heeseung hummed in response.

"For a second there, I thought we were soulmates"
Heeseung smiled and wrapped his arm around her shoulder.

"Well...."

" You Never Know... "
