Chapter 5
Jongwoon looked away. He knew what he did was wrong but he at least had to do something to confirm a certain someone’s existence. He isn’t still sure right now because being scared of water is a common thing but he still has a few options left to confirm. What bothers him the most at the moment was why would someone who looked like a person he knew years ago suddenly appear? Reincarnation might’ve answered his questions about himself but it surely doesn’t apply to this person. This person, Ryeowook.
“Ryeowook, the doctors said you can go home now since you only passed out. Use these clothes to change,” Kyuhyun approached the older man, handing him one of the shopping bags he carried with him. Ryeowook hopped of the bed, grabbed the shopping bag and went inside the comfort room to change without any question and a smile painted on his face.
Sungmin’s uncalled attention caught the two when he slumped at the couch with a loud sigh. “You know Kyu, I feel pretty weird with that Ryeowook,” He said without even looking at Kyuhyun.
“What do you mean?” Kyuhyun asked in state of confusion. He admits though that it was totally not normal to meet someone who keeps on smiling but he guesses he got used to it and can’t complain no more.
“I mean, how can you stand someone who smiles almost every time?” Sungmin then looks up with a displeased face. “I don’t understand how he can smile so much…where did you meet him? How did you two meet? Where is he from?” He asks one after another, almost panicking Kyuhyun not knowing what to answer.
Just then, Jongwoon interrupted their conversation. “Hold on Min, I don’t think it’s good to judge people, we might not know anything about Ryeowook but so far he didn’t do anything wrong or put us all in trouble,” He said seriously.
“Huh? Then what do you call that incident at the water park?” Sungmin insisted.
“It wasn’t his fault. It’s not like he purposely broke the glass,” Jongwoon replied.
“Look guys, I don’t really care about your socializing issues right now, ok?” Kyuhyun interrupted and at the same time Ryeowook came out of the bath room, shocking the three people who waited for him and slowly diminishing the tense atmosphere inside the room, replacing it with a rather peaceful one.
Ryeowook only blinked at their eyes on him. “Is there…something wrong?” Yes, apparently yes. For all these times they’ve been with him, all he wore was pure white shirts and pants. Now, he’s wearing something new to their eyes. Ryeowook was wearing an off-the-shoulder black shirt -in which Kyuhyun doesn’t know where it came from-and grayish tight jeans, matched with a pair of silver supra shoes.
“Where the heck did those came from?” Kyuhyun asked out of the blue.
“Huh? Umm…I took it from the shopping bag you gave me…” Ryeowook replied but before even finishing, Kyuhyun already took the shopping bag from his hand and turned it up side down, letting all the clothes fall to the floor. He did the same with the other three shopping bags. Sungmin and Jongwoon only watched.
“Oh My God…they gave me the wrong ones,” Kyuhyun said with a disappointed sigh. As Ryeowook looked over the clothes, he too realized he had the wrong shopping bags. Ryeowook’s sudden outburst of giggles again, took all their attentions. “Yes, laugh, ha, ha, ha…” Kyuhyun turned to him and glared but when Ryeowook looked up at him with a sweet smile, he couldn’t help but stare at him.
“I’m sorry…I hadn’t laughed like this for years…” Ryeowook apologized in between giggles.
“I find it hard to laugh, am I missing something?” Sungmin butted in. Jongwoon was also starting to control his laughter. “Oh not you too,” He turned to Jongwoon who has completely gave up now and is laughing with Ryeowook.
Kyuhyun, who was looking at both of them trying to lower the volume of their laughter, found himself hard to avoid chuckling. He doesn’t even know what’s funny but it seemed like a good time to join in the fun. Sungmin wasn’t pleased at all but smiled, he knew that.
Hours later, Kyuhyun found himself waiting for their driver to pay the hospital bills while leaning on the car. He looked around him and accidentally saw Ryeowook jumping at the burden of his short height trying to catch a butterfly. He smiled at how Ryeowook looked like a small kid but couldn’t help but think that if he had his wings, he won’t have to jump so hard. He guessed Ryeowook used to do this when he had his wings. “Ah!” His spazzing thoughts were then interrupted when Ryeowook suddenly disappeared on his sight.
He walked to him immediately, trying to keep his cool by putting his hands inside his pockets, and bent down to Ryeowook who tripped and fell on the ground. “Need help?” Kyuhyun asked with a smirk.
Ryeowook looked up at him and smiled then took his hands and Kyuhyun pulled him up. “Thanks-ah!” He stood up but tripped yet again, accidentally leaning on Kyuhyun. “Sorry…” He looks at him apologetically.
“Does your foot hurt?” Kyuhyun asked in concert and annoyance.
“Uh, no, it’s fine actually,” Ryeowook said with a fake smile.
“Oh please, angels aren’t really good at telling lies,” Kyuhyun then let Ryeowook stand by himself as he attempts to guide him to the car but…
“Kyuhyun,” Jongwoon called from behind with his coat hanging on his arm. “Oh, sorry…am I interrupting something?” He stopped walking in worry.
“No, you’re not, Ryeowook just…sprained his foot,” Kyuhyun told him.
“Okay then, let me help him instead, I know you aren’t the type who would get into the trouble of helping someone who sprained his foot, I mean…you just weren’t like that,” Jongwoon said as he walked nearer but yet to be -unobviously-blocked by Kyuhyun. Jongwoon looked at him with a bit of surprise and confusion.
“No, actually, since Ryeowook and I are living together, I guess I am responsible for him,” Kyuhyun told Jongwoon blatantly, surfacing a very unusual smile as Sungmin dropped his jaw when he just arrived beside them.
“You do?” Sungmin asked, in shock. “YOU DO?” And he emphasizes the question obviously for both of them. “Fuck, you two live together?” And he repeats again, Kyuhyun nods, Ryeowook smiles. “Well…” He looked at the two of them. “Well, shit,” Seems like nothing came out of his mouth other than words of disappointment. The three of them looked at each other as Sungmin walks out, obviously upset. Jongwoon follows him afterwards.
Minutes later when they are already inside the car, Kyuhyun turned to Ryeowook who looked like he was traumatized. Poor guy. “Look, Ryeowook, I know you aren’t used to that kind of situation,” Ryeowook looked at him then. “With all the curse words…and Sungmin walking away…but um, you really don’t know Sungmin that well…and…”
“Why are you saying that? I think Sungmin is upset, we need to talk to him…” Ryeowook said with obvious worry.
Kyuhyun just couldn’t believe this guy. “No, I mean…yes he was upset, and it was because of us or what I said but-“
“It was because of me?!” Ryeowook gasps. “I need to talk to him! I don’t want him to get mad!” He leans closer to Kyuhyun with pleading eyes.
“Well, I think he’s already angry by now-“
“He’s already mad?! Oh My God Kyuhyun, what do we do??? We made him angry!” Ryeowook yells in panic. Kyuhyun can only sigh.
Thirty minutes later, at the bar. “Fuck my life,” Sungmin blurts out after taking a sip of cocktail. “What did I ever do to deserve this?!” He yells to Jongwoon.
“Look Sungmin, they just lived together, what’s wrong with that?” Jongwoon said, trying to lighten up the mood, but now, it doesn’t work every time.
“Living together isn’t fun without sexual intercourse Jongwoon, and you know it,” Sungmin answered with a glare then takes a sip of cocktail again.
“You don’t even know,”
“Trust me, I know,” Sungmin then sighed. He looked around the club while drinking from the glass when he suddenly spitted everything that came into his mouth. Jongwoon looked at him in shock. “Are my eyes playing tricks on me or is that Kyuhyun I see? Oh shit, with Ryeowook, great,” He said with a pout.
“Sungmin hyung!” Ryeowook came yelling, with a painted worry face. Sungmin just couldn’t believe his day. “Are you mad at me? Wait, are you mad? Why are you mad? Please don’t get mad-“
“SHHH! Goodness, what’s wrong with you?” Sungmin asked Ryeowook, obviously exasperated enough.
“Well…Kyuhyun said you were mad…and he told me that Jongwoon told him that you were here…and I just wanted to apologize…” Ryeowook said shyly. Sungmin looked at Kyuhyun and Jongwoon unbelievably. And they both looked away. “So, are you mad…?”
Sungmin sighed then turned to Ryeowook. “I’m not mad, I’m just upset,” He told him. “And it’ll disappear in a few hours…so just…go catch some butterflies or something outside, just go,”
Ryeowook smiled then gave Sungmin a warm hug which startled all of them. “Thank you hyung!” Then he left with Kyuhyun helping him to walk.
“He’s a sweet guy,” Jongwoon commented as he watched them leave with Sungmin. Sungmin nods. “And to think that he ran to you with a sprained foot…wow…”
“Yeah…” Sungmin nods again, and then smiled.
Ryeowook and Kyuhyun were already walking back to the car when suddenly an unfamiliar face called Kyuhyun. “Kyuhyun-ah!” Kyuhyun immediately turned around who have seemed to recognize someone. “Hi…”
“Oh, Zhou Mi,” Kyuhyun greeted, not so enthusiastic.
Zhou Mi walked to him with a smirk. “Long time no see babes,” He said and played with Kyuhyun collar.
“Oh no you don’t bitch!” Sungmin yells from behind and pulled Zhou Mi’s hair after a jump in which Zhou Mi left out a whimper. “Did you mean ex-babes? How dare you show your disgusting face at this clean slate?!” He yells close to Zhou Mi’s ear, earning a kick from him which led to Sungmin letting go of his hair. Jongwoon chuckles at the back while Ryeowook just watched them.
“Well, if it isn’t the whore,” Zhou Mi says after fixing his hair.
“If you don’t want me to break your nails, get lost freak! You disgust me!” Sungmin yells louder and Ryeowook stared wide-eyed.
“I’ll get lost for sure since I don’t hang out with losers like you!” Zhou Mi snobbed then walked away, almost tripping. Entertainment, as Sungmin calls it.
Ryeowook sighed and spoke. “I’ll pretend I didn’t hear anything…” He then turned around and walked alone slowly back to the car.
“What’s up with him?” Sungmin asks, looking at Jongwoon and Kyuhyun.
“Ryeowook-“ Kyuhyun called but was yet interrupted by Sungmin walking to him.
They watched as Sungmin opens the door for Ryeowook and Ryeowook looked at him with a smile. “Thanks hyung,”
“I’m sorry about that just now…I would want to explain but I wouldn’t want you to know what that Zhou Mi did…so, here,” Sungmin gave Ryeowook a small box. “For your foot,” He smiles then walked back to Jongwoon.
Ryeowook held the box tightly on his hand then went inside the car, bumping his head on the process.
“SUCH A BEAUTIFUL DAY!” Sungmin yells, throwing his arms on the air and smiling so widely.
“I guess I’ll take him home…he is so not okay,” Jongwoon told Kyuhyun before he walked back to his car. Jongwoon sighed then grabbed Sungmin by the arm. “Come on, we need to get home,”
“IT’S A BEAUTIFUL DAY!!!”
“Yes, it is,”
“I LOVE THIS DAY!!!”
“Me too,”
It was already almost noon when Ryeowook and Kyuhyun arrived at the hanok house. The rain started to pour and Ryeowook ran immediately inside for shelter, leaving Kyuhyun to carry the shopping bags inside. “Kyuhyun-shii, come on, it’s gonna rain!”
“Well, yeah, you won’t melt in the rain,”
“Do you want to get wet?” Ryeowook asks innocently.
“Uh, you know what?” Kyuhyun said as he throws the bags on the floor. “I’m not gonna argue with you…I’m tired,” He then started to walk.
“Where are you going?”
“To my room,” Kyuhyun answered. He saw how Ryeowook was looking at him then he figured what it was that was bothering the little guy. “I live here now right?” He smiled when he couldn’t help it and felt really good when he knew it would make the latter feel better after all the tension and unexpected events that happened today.
Ryeowook’s face beamed with a smile then he runs to Kyuhyun, limping. “Yeah, so, do you want something to eat? Or…you want me to cook something?” He asks excitedly, his face still painted with a sweet smile.
Kyuhyun found it amusing, so amusing to see someone who acts so innocent and kind. “Um, it’s up to you,” He replied then went inside his room. The last thing he saw was Ryeowook’s smile and the last thing he heard was Ryeowook walking away to the kitchen. He settled himself at the bed, sighing deeply as he lied down, and relaxed. He thought of something, just something. Something he never thought would happen to him. Something very strange. And someone who appears to be very special in his own way. Just, that someone. He just thought of that person.
Speaking of that person, he just knocked. “What?” Kyuhyun says with his eyes closed.
“Um…if you want to eat lunch…the food’s ready…I know you’re kind of tired or something but um…well, if you’re hungry you can just come out…and eat or…would you want me to bring your food here…I mean…that would work if you’re too tired to come out…I understand-“ He stopped when he heard Kyuhyun walking to the door and it suddenly slid opened that it startled him.
“Alright alright, I’m coming out, geez, you talk too much…” Kyuhyun said with a pissed groan as he walks pass Ryeowook and straight to the kitchen. Ryeowook slid the door close then turned around and walked back to the kitchen, slowly because his foot is still hurt.
“You really cook, huh?” Kyuhyun said as he settled down on the chair. Ryeowook leaned on the counter and watched as Kyuhyun chooses what to eat. Kyuhyun took almost everything on his plate and Ryeowook smiled when he saw Kyuhyun’s satisfied after tasting one of those. “It’s actually good,”
“Um…I don’t remember how I knew to cook since…I think…I died when I was just a child…but I think I got it…because I was always watching someone…when she cooks, I don’t remember…” Ryeowook stated, with a bit of a frown.
“Well, it’s been 500 years as you say, so of course you won’t remember,” Kyuhyun looked at him and chewed, Ryeowook smiled at him.
“Yeah, you’re right; however I do want to remember…I feel so…alone,” Ryeowook frowned.
“Two’s a company,” Kyuhyun told him, referring to the both of them, clearly stating that no, you’re not alone. Not anymore. “This is really good by the way,” He said with a smile. “Anyway, why don’t you eat with me?”
“Uh… no, its fine, as long as you eat what I cooked, I’m okay,” Ryeowook smiles again.
“How’s your foot?”
“Oh, it still hurts but I think it’ll heal in time…I almost forgot!” Ryeowook gasps and took something from his pocket. Kyuhyun recognized it very well. “Sungmin hyung gave this to me…he said it’s for my foot,” He said as he examines the box.
“It’s an ointment,” Kyuhyun said and resumed chewing.
“Ointment?”
“Yeah, you apply it on your finger…it helps to make the healing faster,” Kyuhyun explained then went back to eating. Ryeowook nodded then did what Kyuhyun said. He took the ointment from the box then opened it. He squeezed but he exerted so much force that a lot spilled on his fingers, Kyuhyun turned to him then. “Stupid, you should only put little!”
“Oh, sorry,” Ryeowook apologized. He felt some dust near his eyes and it irritated his right one, causing him to rub his eyes with his fingers, with the ointment spilled on it. “AHH! It hurts!”
Kyuhyun turned to him once again then ran to him immediately. “What happened?!”
“My eye hurts!!!” Ryeowook whined as he covers his right eye with his palm.
“What did you do???” Kyuhyun asked, trying to separate his palm from his eye.
“I don’t know!” Ryeowook yelled, near to crying.
“Hey calm down, did you just rub your eye with your fingers full of ointment?”
“I did? AHHHH! IT HURTS!!!” Ryeowook continues to yells as he fans himself with his hand and jumped around with Kyuhyun holding his hips to refrain him from jumping too much.
“Wash it! Come on!” Kyuhyun yells as he turns Ryeowook around to face the sink, settling beside him then immediately turning on the sink. Ryeowook washes his face repeatedly. “Tsk tsk…” Kyuhyun shook his head as he leaned by the sink, watching Ryeowook wipe his face. “How can you be so stupid?” He asks, slightly annoyed but worried, of course.
“Sorry,” Ryeowook apologizes as he finished. “I didn’t know what it was…so…”
“Does it hurt?”
“No, not really…though…” Ryeowook said as he tilts his head to the side and blinked his eyes repeatedly. Kyuhyun found it cute, very cute. “Kyuhyun shii, I can’t even open my eyes that long! It stings!” And he panicked, it’s a usual reaction. Atleast there’s one thing Kyuhyun’s used to now, Ryeowook panics easily.
“Okay relax, just close your eyes then…” Kyuhyun said gently. Ryeowook liked the sound of that.
“But I won’t be able to see anything…” Ryeowook pouted with his eyes closed.
“Okay fine, I’ll help you,” Kyuhyun then walked to him and held his hands. “Geez, you cause too much trouble,” he groans then pulled Ryeowook out from the kitchen and decided to lead him to his room. “I’ll get you to your room…you just…uh, sleep,” He continued as he slid the door open and walked in. “Be careful,” He warns as he helped Ryeowook sit on his bed until he lied down. “Just…stay there and sleep. I think it won’t sting anymore when you wake up,” Kyuhyun told him then sighed.
“Kyuhyun shii…” Ryeowook calls out as he pulled the blanket up to his chest. “Thanks,” He said then smiled even though he doesn’t see who he’s smiling at. He just smiled; because he knows it himself that he can see it.
Kyuhyun stared at him, not knowing how to respond. He liked that smile now, it just made everything peaceful. He felt as if he had never heard this silence before and this will be the first time, first time ever. “You’re welcome,” He whispers then left immediately, slowly closing the door and walked away.
