Chapter XIV

"Why did you do that? Did you think that I would come to you crying to thank you?"

Seojun was upset, more than that, but mostly because he felt offended.

Offended because Suho had gotten into something he shouldn't have gotten into.

Yes, he had found out that Suho, Lee Suho, had been the one who had paid for all of his mother's treatment in the hospital, and that had him furious.

He didn't need him, anyone. Neither he, nor his mother.

"Wouldn't you have done the same? If you were me, wouldn't you have done the same to save my mother?" Seojun stopped, swallowing some hurtful words that were going to come out before he interrupted him, the taller one just looked at Suho with a serious expression, not answering him, the other just nodded. "I did it because we were friends, but if it bothers you so much that I did it, then just forget it".

The boy was going to turn around before Seojun stopped him, placing a hand on Seojun's chest, inhaling deeply before stepping to the side, placing himself in front of him. "Friends? Be honest with you Suho, you didn't because we were friends..." He shook his head with an almost sarcastic smile, his eyes wide in annoyance. "You did it because you didn't want anything that connected me with Aera... Because you know she herself would have paid every penny for treatment if she had even known".

In fact, Aera didn't know about Seojun's mother's illness, in fact, even though they used to be close, she never met his mother until recently, and Seojun used to be quite private about his personal life, so much so that he never mentioned his mother's illness to anyone other than Suho, Because he used to be his best friend.

But he knew Aera better than anyone else and knew that if she had known how difficult it was to have the treatment that Seojun's mother had, she herself would have offered to give him a check with the total of it. And Seojun didn't want that, that's the reason why he never touched on the subject of families when he was with her or they went out together.

"And you would have wanted that, wouldn't you?" Suho answered, looking at him with eyes open in annoyance too, it made him angry that the girl came up in every topic of conversation they had, it was as if he was trying to remind him that he had been stupid. "You wish you had an excuse to be around her all the time".

Seojun pushed him a little as he began to approach him, grabbing him by his shirt. "I told you once, I don't need excuses to approach Aera, because before she was your girlfriend, she was my friend, she was..." Seojun paused for a second before letting him go with some anger, pushing his finger against his former friend's chest. "It was the girl I was in love with, the girl you decided to take away from me..." Suho narrowed his eyes when he heard that, the pain in his chest due to the boy's finger was put aside.

"That did I take from you?" Suho replied almost sarcastically, but he couldn't say more when a noise interrupted him.

When Seojun's phone rang, he cursed, letting go of Suho with some force, taking the device out of his pocket, his brow furrowed at seeing Aera's name on the screen, but he answered immediately because he was curious to know where he was.

She had left without even thinking about it, and he had a strange feeling that something was wrong.

Suho noticed that, but didn't take it seriously, turning around so he could leave the place before Seojun's voice could be heard in his ears. "Aera? Is my girlf... Listen to me, you piece of shit, if you touch a single hair, I'm going to kill you, I swear".

Suho immediately turned around when the girl's name was mentioned, watching as Seojun put the phone down with some concern, his body moved to that of the other tall boy. "What happened?"
