CHAPTER 50
Lena was suddenly startled by the continuous ringing of the doorbell. Micky and the others had already left hours ago, and the food that Micky ordered had also been delivered.
"Who can it be?" she asked herself as she hurriedly pushed her wheelchair out of the room. She then went straight to the front of the door, and opened it. She was totally surprised with what she saw.
Keiko was standing in front of her. "We need to talk," she immediately uttered as she entered the apartment.
Lena just silently followed Keiko into the living room. And as soon as they entered the room, Keiko confronted her.
"You should leave," Keiko said with a serious tone.
Lena looked straight at Keiko. She could see anger in her eyes.
"Just go back where you came from. You have already caused so much trouble. Ever since you arrived, our peaceful lives have been turned upside down. And frankly . . . I hate you . . . and I despise everything about you. Do you actually think that people . . . especially Jaejoong will pity you if you appear on a wheelchair? Are you really injured? Or are you just playing to be one? Your tricks are already old-fashioned dear . . . Why don't you try playing a new one? But I suggest you better play your game somewhere else . . . and with someone else. Jaejoong belongs to me now. He will never go back to you. So just forget about your plans of winning him back . . . because it won't work. We're going to have a baby soon. . . So get lost! I don't want you here! And I certainly don't want you near Jaejoong. You're just making him confused. I know he will soon ask me to marry him. But that won't happen with you around. So I suggest you find another place to stay. I want you gone before they return," Keiko said while looking straight at Lena's shocked expression.
"You're . . . you're pregnant?" Lena asked.
"Yes. that's why I want you to leave. I need Jaejoong . . . Our baby needs him," Keiko answered.
Lena tried to control her tears that were forming in her eyes. She didn't want Keiko to see her crying.
"Fine . . . I'll leave right now," she weakly uttered.
A sweet smile suddenly appeared on Keiko's lips. "That's good. At least, you know when to accept defeat. I never thought you could be so easy to persuade."
Lena suddenly gave Keiko an angry look. "I'm not leaving because of you, or the things that you have said . . . I'm leaving . . . because of your baby."
Keiko smiled. "Fine . . . whatever . . . just get lost. I don't want to see your face again."
Lena hurriedly turned her wheelchair around. "I'm just going to take some of my things in Micky's room . . . and then I'll leave."
"Sure . . . just make sure you don't take too long. I want you gone before they arrive," Keiko uttered coldly.
Lena silently went to Micky's room. She gathered some of her personal belongings and hurriedly placed all of it into her bag.
She then sadly looked around Micky's room for the very last time. Slowly she picked up Micky's picture near her bed.
"Goodbye, Micky. Thank you for all the love and care you've given me. I'm sorry that I can't love you back in the way that you want me to. But please keep in mind . . . that I will always love you . . . as a friend," Lena softly uttered as she traced Micky's face in the picture she was holding. Then she planted a kiss on Micky's picture.
Sadly . . . Lena returned Micky's picture frame on the side of the bed. "Please take care of yourself Micky," she uttered before she finally closed Micky's room.
"Are you leaving now?" Keiko asked coldly as she stared in front of the door of the apartment.
"Yes," Lena replied.
"Good," Keiko uttered as she quickly opened the door.
Lena gradually pushed her wheelchair out of the apartment. She felt like she was slowly dying inside. But she still tried to control herself. She didn't want to appear so pitiful in Keiko's eyes.
"Goodbye . . . I hope I will never see you again," Keiko uttered.
Lena stared at Keiko. "Keiko . . . please take good care of Jaejoong," she softly said.
Keiko felt her heart had suddenly softened for Lena. She somehow pitied her. But she immediately regained her cold heart and sneered at Lena.
"Of course, I will take good care of him. You don't even have to remind me," she uttered angrily.
Lena tried to smile, even though she felt like her whole world was slowly crumbling. She then turned her wheelchair and went straight to the elevator.
As Lena moved farther and farther away from the DBSK boys' apartment, her tears quickly appeared. She was totally lost and confused. She didn't know where to go. The only thing she knew was she needed to get away from that place. She didn't want to see Jaejoong anymore. How she wanted to forget him.
Lena sobbed. Somehow her heart couldn't take the pain anymore. Jaejoong was also the father of another woman's child. The thought was too sickening for her. She wanted to hate him and forget him.
As she was having those thoughts, she suddenly felt a weak movement in her abdomen. And slowly she smiled, then she started to caress her abdomen.
"I'm sorry . . . baby. I know you don't want me to hate your father. But I'm hurt . . . very hurt. Please try and understand," she uttered with a trembling voice.
Several minutes passed and Lena was already outside of the apartment building. She sadly stared at the building. Memories then started to fill her mind.
"Where do I go now?" she started to ask jerself. Then she looked at the people passing by. Fear started to creep into her heart. She knew once she leaves that place . . . she can never return to it ever again.
Lena let out a long sigh. She didn't want to cry anymore. She was very tired of crying. She tried to put on a smile on her face. "Come on, baby. . . Let's see where the road takes us. Let's leave this sad place and find another place where we can both be happy. As long as you're with me . . . I know I can endure anything. So stay strong baby . . . I promise I will stay strong as well," she uttered as she slowly pushed her wheelchair along a large group of people passing by.
She didn't care about what will happen to her once she leaves. The only thing she cares about is that she won't be alone. She will always have a special memory that will stay with her forever.
Lena continuously pushed her wheelchair farther and farther away. She didn't care about the pity in the eyes of the people that saw her. She didn't care where she was heading. She wanted to get away . . . and forget.
Her tears were already streaming down her face. She couldn't help it. She needed to cry, or else she wouldn't be able to bear the pain. She had finally decided to let Jaejoong go. Even though her heart wasn't accepting her decision, her mind was telling her it was the right thing to do.
A cold breeze suddenly made her shiver. She then thought that she will never have the chance to feel the warmth of Jaejoong's embrace again. The thought brought pain into her heart.
She then tried to console herself with the thought that even though she will never have Jaejoong again . . . she will always have the memories they shared . . . and she will always have a special part of him with her. She will always have their child with her . . . their baby will be the everlasting memory that will bind her and Jaejoong forever. No matter where she was . . . or who Jaejoong was with. They will always share something special.
"I will always keep you in my heart, Jaejoong," she uttered.
The cold breeze continued to make Lena shiver. But she just ignored the cold.
