I went to cram school and I saw Gray there, my back pain was worsening, that Teddy Jin..... We exchanged some pleasantries then I went back to my class.

When I went back home, my back was worse ..but somehow I held the pain and slept.

*

My back is still aching , I forgot to tell Ben as I slept early yesterday. Today I'll surely go to the doctor.
I went to his class and said
"Hey Ben"

"Ohh , Sel , I wanted to tell you that today's the rib feast at home, would you like to come?" Ben asked

Huh? Feast? Ben's not free..

"Ahh it's okay, I can't come.. bye" I denied, my pain is really getting worse.

By the end of school , I saw Alex
"Hey.. you going somewhere?" I asked him

He was with some guys
"Yeah pool , wanna come?" He asked

"Uh no bye bye" I said

I'm not good with navigation, so I can't go alone , this back pain ,my memory I can't remember anything from past , I lived here , I knew I knew about everything but why can't I remember, it makes me feel so helpless. I'm really controlling my tears right now.

"Hey you okay?" a voice asked me. It was Gerard Jin.

"Umm no" I said , I was leaning against the wall and he was standing in front of me. I told him everything.

He took my hand and said
"Follow me"

"It's a sprain" the doctor said.

"What I was hit that hard?" I asked him

"Yeah quite hard, but don't worry its very mild, I guess you didn't apply anything so that's why pain was worse, it'll be fine in a week, put ice pack and the spray I'll recommend... Restrain any physical activity" the doctor said

I came out of Doctor's ward, I saw Gerard sitting.
"What did he say?" He asked

"It's a sprain" I said

When we came out of the ward , Gerard asked
"Wanna have something to eat?"

"Sure" I said

We played tekken, in which I was worst , he was good, he's mysterious, I want to ask him so many questions, why do you hide your eyes, why don't you study? What's your past...

It was 7:00, the sun was about to set , the breeze was light.

" Thanks" I said

He smiled a bit and said
"Anytime"

The breeze was really pleasant.
My phone rang, it was Ben.

"What?" I asked

"Can you go to Alex's home?" Ben asked me

"Why?" I asked

"I need you to bring a book, it's on the new game edition please?!?" He asked on phone

But due to some reason, I agreed, but I don't know where it is, he said in Singil, but I'm near Yeongdeungpo.

"Hey you know where Alex's home exactly is?" I asked Gerard

"Yeah" he said

"Can you take me there please?" I asked him, he just nodded.

We took a bus, to be honest, Gerard is really tall, he stood behind me, I was really flustered.

We reached Alex's home

Gerard said "Umm I need to go to my job ..."

I said "oh yeah bye bye"

"Yeah bye" he said and started jogging

I yelled
"Thank you"

He waved.

I rang the bell and I heard Alex's voice
"Who it is?"

"It's me I need that game book Ben asked.." I said

"Okay" he said

Then he stuck out his hand from the gate and gave me that book but why isn't he showing his face ... I sensed something is wrong. I forced the door open but Alex was stronger than me.. in our struggle the door opened and I fell on him

I saw his face was covered in bandages..

"What happened?" I asked

"Er well .. just promise you won't tell Ben"

"Huh?tell me?"

"Promise first" he said

My curiosity was so high that I said yes

"When I went to pool hall I was there beaten up by Jimmy Bae, he thought beating up would enrage Ben but.. I want to protect Ben, he might not be able to take him"  he told me and I listened calmly, I would've enraged in the situation but even Alex was beaten but even in this situation he's trying to calmly protect Ben, I also thought at that time that I should calm myself down in any situation because being reckless won't lead you anywhere.

***

It's been 3 days since and Alex hasn't come to school  and yeah obviously Ben is going crazy. Gerard is sure quiet and suspecting me.

Right now we're at the rooftop, it's raining,it's cold yet feels good.
Ben is calling Alex

" He picked up" Ben said
 

I came to the class because it was cold and its time for the class. A notification came at my phone , it was a fight video in school full of delinquents , I clicked it but

WHAT THE FUCK!?!??!?? Happened!?!?
