The boy next door

Part 21

NOW THE DRAMA STARTS *evil laugh*

I woke up as the sun's rays hit my face. Where am I? Shit this is not my room. What the fuck-- oh right. I guess I am in Lee know's room?

I looked around and found no trace of him. Was I dreaming? Again? That cant be. I am in the room I was in last night.

I got up from the bed and moved my eyes around the room. Was it someone else? That cant be too. I looked at myself. I was covered in a bedsheet. Shit. Oppa must be worrying about me. But much to my surprise, my clothes and hand bag was kept aside the bed. Who did that?

I got up and wore my clothes. I looked at my phone. Shoot. Eight missed calls from oppa. Oh my god. I am dead when I get home. I peeked my head out of the room. Clear. No one in sight. I will call Lee know when I get home. Better go home fast.

The house was filled with people. Most of them were passed out. I snuck out of the house. Why am I even sneaking out? It's not like I forced him to do what he did.

I booked a cab and reached my house. 'Where were you?' oppa asked as soon as I came in. Shoot. 'I stayed over at my friend's,' I said as rubbed my nape nervously. 'You skipped school and stayed over at your friend's?' oppa asked, completely surprised. 'Uh yeah?' I just realized that I skipped school. My attendance will be floating on air by next week, AKA midterms. 

'Its alright. Looks like your friend couldn't borrow you some clothes. Take a shower and rest. I will be leaving for college. Bye,' oppa said as he kissed my forehead and left. I went up the stairs and groaned, looking at myself in the mirror. Shit. Shit. Shit. What would have happened if oppa saw these? I quickly took a shower and put some makeup over the four purple marks. 

Should I visit Allison? Maybe I should. I have to talk to her about Haneul and well um-- Lee know. I rode off to the hospital and soon stopped in front of the receptionist's office. 'How can I help you?' she asked. 'I want to book a meeting with Allison D'coy. When is she available?' I asked her back. 'I will just check that. Looks like her present meeting will end in five minutes. How about you wait? I will call your name,' she said as I smiled. 

I grabbed a seat nearby and went through my phone. Shouldn't Lee know at least call me once? Should I? What should I do? Should I just let it go? Say it was a mistake? No! He took my virginity for fuck's sake. I dialed his number but hesitated to call him. Should I wait for him to call? Oh fuck it. I pressed on the call button and waited. RING RING RING. "The number you have dialed is currently busy. Call again later." The annoying voice spoke again. 

'Choi Hyerin? Please enter,' the receptionist said as I entered Allison's room. 'Oh hi Hyerin. What brings you here? Are you taking your meals daily?' Allison asked. 'Yes. Allison. I actually have something to discuss with you,' I said as she nodded. 'My best friend. Haneul. She is actually the sister of my crush. I decided to confess to him yesterday. But before that, I told Haneul about my crush on her...brother. The thing is, they are step-siblings and not on good terms. I thought that maybe she would agree. But she became mad at me and shouted.'

'I went to a party yesterday night to their place. My crush held the party. I wanted to apologize to her but my ego got the best of me and I just made matters worse. But I ended up confessing to him. And then things got.....out of hand. And we umm,' I stopped. 'Had sex?' Allison blurted out. 'Yes,' I timidly replied. 'It's okay Hyerin. I am not mad for that but looks like you had a choice to choose between your friendship and your love life. And you chose the latter. Don't you think you should focus more on mending your broken friendship?' she asked me. Of course it made sense.
