Where You Are

Chapter 33 - Do you like her?

"Hannah told me that Min-Joon was upstairs but what part of upstairs?"

I walk up the stairs and walk into a room with clothes on the floor and find a walk in closer full of shoes and what look to be extremely expensive clothes.

"I guess this is Hannah's room" I walk around and reach the end of the hall. I open the door and see Min-Joon on the bed. I can see he's panting, and he looks sweaty. I rush over to him and just like Hannah said, he does seem really sick.

"Don't worry Min-Joon, I'm here" I tell him. He opens his eyes ever so slightly.

"Hannah?" he asks. I widen my eyes, my heart stopping for a second. Did he just call me Hannah? "Yu-Na?" he asks again. A sigh of relief leaves my lips, I must have heard him wrong. Though, I don't know why I'm relieved. I shouldn't be bothered by it, yet it worried me.

Stop thinking about this Yu-Na. You have to help Min-Joon get better.

"What are you doing in my home?" Min-Joon asks me.

"Hannah asked me to come help you" I tell him as I rush to his drawers to find some clothes for him to change into. He reaches out to me and tells me he doesn't need my help. That made me remember the day when he called me an outsider but this time I won't run away.

"Even if you don't want me here, I'm still going to help you" I tell him as I look back at him with a determined look on my face. He stares at me for a while, a grin forming on his face, then he lays his head back down.

I find new pajamas in which he can change into and go downstairs to the kitchen to get some cold water to cool him down. I brought with me all kinds of medicine seeing as I didn't know how bad he was. When I walked back to him, I told him to take some of the medicine I had for him.

Just like a child he does what he's told and doesn't question me at all. I wonder if this is the only time, he's ever kind? Well, he is kind, if he wasn't, he wouldn't have given Hannah a place to stay. I feel my heart stop again as this burning feeling come over me.

Its happened again and I was thinking about Hannah again.

I pass the cold cloth over Min-Joon's c.h.e.s.t and back. I change him into different pajamas and lay him back down. I take the covers off his bed and change them with new ones, placing the old ones in the laundry room, though it took me some time to find it. This house is enormous.

As I look around, I notice how clean the house is, but I decide to clean up anyways, but I make sure not to go into Hannah's bedroom.

I hear a thud coming from upstairs which worries me, and I run upstairs. I see Min-Joon on the ground. I rush to his side, but he quickly places his arms around me and whispers for me not to go.

"Don't leave me, please" he said "I'm scared" I feel like he's talking to me, but he has his eyes closed so I can only imagine that he's dreaming, a very vivid and sad dream. I try to move away from his grasp and help him get back into his bed but he wont budge "Don't leave me" he says one more time.

I wrap my arms around him. Maybe, he's also talking to me as well. Can I think that?

"Don't worry" I say to him "I won't" I feel how his arms slowly let me go and he calms down.

"Let's get you back on the bed" I tell him. As he continues to sleep, I sit on the floor right next to him.

"You really are handsome, aren't you?" I ask him, knowing he won't answer me. I reach my hand out and move some of the hair on his face to the side "Even when you're sick" I whisper, a chuckle leaving my lips.

When I open my eyes once more, I see I have a blanket over me, and the sick patient is no longer in his bed. I got up and walked towards the door, I heard Min-Joon arguing downstairs. I follow the noise and reach his study. As I walk towards him, I see him on his phone.

"Where is that stupid idiot?!" Min-Joon looks at his phone and hangs up "Not answering her phone"

"I can't trust her with anything. I drink with someone, she disappears and almost gets taken away by drunkards. I'm doing important stuff, she tricks me into leaving the office. I yell at her, she runs away. I get sick and she take my money!" he's yelling to himself, now. I wonder if he's talking about Hannah.

I knock on the door and he turns around "Oh" he says "Hi"

"Hi" I answer.

"Thanks, for taking care of me" he tells me. I shake my head.

"You shouldn't be out of bed so soon" I tell him.

"I'm better now" he says but I shake my head again. I walk towards him and place my hand on his forehead. Although it's not burning anymore, its still warm. Min-Joon stays looking at me for a while, then he quickly separates himself from me and tells me he's okay and that I could leave now.

"Hannah told me to take care of you" I said. He turns around at the sound of Hannah's name and walks back towards me.

"Hannah?" he asks. I nod "Where did she go?" he grabs me by my shoulders. Why is he being like this? He looks worried and angry, an emotion I haven't seen coming from him. I don't like that expression. Please, don't make that expression. He wants me to answer but thinking about it, she didn't specifically tell me where she was going. She did mention work and she dressed nicely, so maybe she went there?

"I think she went to work" I say unsure. Min-Joon lets go of me and groans in frustration and turns back around.

"That girl is in a heap of trouble when she gets back"

"Do you like her?" I ask without thinking. Min-Joon turns around with a confused look on his face. I feel horrible for even asking.

"Only a fool would like that little girl" he said as he turned back around and continued to walk upstairs. I take a deep breath and sigh. I feel horrible for even asking him that question or even feeling jealous. Hannah has more on her plate than anyone else. She must be sad that she can't remember anyone or anything and here I am worrying about trivial stuff. I'm such a bad friend.
