I LOVE YOU MY FRIEND (FAN FICTION) (CHAPTER 26)

CHAPTER 26

    The doorbell rang . . . once . . . twice . . . thrice . . .

    Max hurriedly ran to open the door. "wait a moment please," he said as he opened the door.

    "Where's Jaejoong?" Yoora suddenly asked as soon as Max opened the door.

    "What? Hyung? I think he's still in his room . . . sleeping," Max answered.

    Yoora suddenly walked into the boys' apartment, straight into the living room. Max who was still confused, just closed the door and immediately followed her.

    "Yoora . . ." U-Know, Xiah and Micky uttered after seeing her enter the room.

    "Where's your friend?" Yoora asked coldly.

    U-Know and Micky looked at each other.

    "You mean Jaejoong? I think he is still in his room," U-Know answered.

    "Jaejoong . . . you bastard . . .  I know you can hear me . . . get out of your room now and face me," Yoora screamed.

    Only seconds passed, a door suddenly opened. And Jaejoong slowly walked out of his room.

    As soon as Yoora saw Jaejoong, she quickly walked up to him, and slapped him hard on the face.

    The other DBSK boys were stunned with what they saw. They were all confused on what was going on. They couldn't understand why Yoora was very angry with Jaejoong.

    Jaejoong just touched his face as if he felt nothing. Then he stared blankly at Yoora's eyes which were filled with anger.

    Yoora saw that Jaejoong wasn't himself either. And somehow her anger suddenly disappeared. She suddenly felt pity for Jaejoong. She could see that he was hurting too. Slowly tears started to fall from her eyes.

    "Why Jaejoong? Why? How could you hurt her like that?" Yoora asked with tears flowing from her eyes.

    Jaejoong didn't know what to answer. He just lowered his head and tried to pretend that he wasn't affected, and that he didn't care.

    Yoora couldn't take Jaejoong's silence. She was so angry with her hands. She wanted to hurt him. She wanted him to wake up and realize what he was doing was wrong. . . totally wrong.

    "How could you have done such a thing Jaejoong? She is your best friend . . . for God's sake! She wasn't a flirt or a prostitute that after you sleep with . . . you can just leave the next morning . . ." Yoora shouted at Jaejoong.

    Max, Xiah, U-Know and Micky couldn't believe what they were hearing. It was only then everything became clear to them. They suddenly understood why Yoora was very angry with Jaejoong.

    "I . . .I'm sorry . . ." Jaejoong suddenly uttered as he stared at Yoora.

    "Sorry? Sorry? I'm not the one you should say sorry to. Do you know how hurt she was Jaejoong? Do you know how hurt I was . . .when I saw her sitting on the floor . . . crying . . . still naked? God! Jaejoong . . . I'm a girl too. And if I was in her place, I couldn't even imagine that I would be able to accept what you did. She kept on repeating that you said you loved her. If you really do love her . . . then why did you leave her? You're the only man she gave herself to. Doesn't that mean anything to you? Are you really a monster Jaejoong?" Yoora said as tears continuously flowed out of her eyes.

    Tears started to fall from Jaejoong's eyes. He couldn't stop himself from picturing Lena in such a pitiful condition just like Yoora said. It was breaking his heart just imagining Lena after he had left her.

    "What happened between us was a mistake. It wasn't supposed to happen. I know I was wrong . . . and I am the one to be blamed . . ." Jaejoong weakly uttered.

    "A mistake? How could you say such a thing? She gave herself to you because she love you . . . She gave herself to you eventhough she knew she wasn't supposed to . . . because she wanted to prove to you how much you meant to her. How dare you say it was a mistake! I can't believe you're the same Jaejoong that I grew up with. You have totally changed. I don't even know who you are anymore," Yoora said coldly as she tried to control herself from crying.

    "I . . . I didn't know what to say to her after what happened between us. That's why I just left. Somehow I couldn't face her and tell her that what we shared was a mistake . . . Something that should be forgotten," Jaejoong uttered.

    "You're a monster! I never imagined that behind your beautiful face lies a hideous monster. I can never forgive you Jaejoong. I'm sorry . . . but from now on . . . I'm cutting all ties with you. You're no longer my friend. You're no longer Lena's friend as well. . . Just stay away from us . . . especially Lena," Yoora said as she coldly stared at Jaejoong.

    "I'm sorry Yoora . . ." Jaejoong uttered as a tear fell from his eye.

    Yoora shook her head. "I'm sorry too Jaejoong. But what you have done is wrong. . . Tell me what's wrong? Why can't you just follow your heart? Is your stardom so important to you that you're willing to trade your love for it? What's holding you back Jaejoong? Just tell me . . . I want to understand you. I can see that you're hurting too. So why? Why are you denying your true feelings? why are you hurting Lena and yourself as well?"

    "I . . . I don't think I am right for her. She lives in a different world . . . so different from mine," Jaejoong uttered.

    Yoora looked at her friend. She could see the pain in his eyes. Somehow her heart ached. She didn't want to see either Lena or Jaejoong hurting.

    Yoora slowly touched Jaejoong's face. "You and Lena have been my best friends for years now. And it is really breaking my heart seeing you guys hurting each other. Just forget about everything Jaejoong . . . set yourself free. Be true to yourself. If you let go of your chance . . . you may never have the chance to experience true happiness."

    "Yoora . . ." Jaejoong uttered.

    Yoora slowly turned and started to walk towards the door. Then she stopped . . .

    "Lena is in the hospital now. I just thought you had a right to know," Yoora said before she finally left the boys' apartment.

    Jaejoong felt very weak. He suddenly leaned against a wall. His tears were already flowing and his whole body was trembling.

    "What have I done?" he suddenly uttered with grief.

    Xiah and U-Know just looked at Jaejoong with pity in their eyes. Somehow they wanted to comfort their friend. But they didn't know how.

    "If you didn't have any intention of being responsible for Lena . . . then you shouldn't have touched her in the first place. You said . . . you didn't want to cause any trouble . . . But look at what you've done . . . Lena's a very nice girl. She doesn't deserve the treatment you gave her. Frankly I am quite disappointed with you. I never imagined you could treat a girl in such an indecent way. And to think . . . she was your best friend. What a nice way to treat your best friend! Sleep with her . . . then leave her. Congratulations . . . you've just made it to the list of the most despicable men that I have met. I'm quite ashamed to say that you are my friend," Micky said angrily as he suddenly stormed out of the living room and into his room.

    Jaejoong felt his whole world was closing in on him. He knew what he did was wrong. But he was confused and afraid. He didn't know how to handle everything that had happened between him and Lena.

    "I'm sorry hyung . . . But I have to agree with Micky. Lena is a decent girl. You had no right to treat her in such a cruel way. I'm sorry. . . but the way I see it . . . You didn't make love to her . . . Somehow you just used her. You can't possibly sleep with a girl you love . . .then just leave her all alone the following day. I'm disappointed in you as well, hyung. I just hope you won't pay dearly . . .in the end," Max said as he also left the living room and entered his own room.

    "Aaaaahhhhh  . . . . " Jaejoong moaned. Then slowly he started to cry uncontrollably.

    "Jaejoong . . ." Xiah and U-Know uttered with concern.

    "I'm sorry Lena . . .Please forgive me . . . Please forgive me . . ." Jaejoong uttered over and over again as tears continuously flowed from his eyes.
