Dr. Kim stared at me with worry in his eyes as he continued to examine me. I gave him a smile, a sign that I’m okay with the sudden intrusion of his child into my room. Meanwhile those feline eyes kept on staring at me, like he’s seeing the very core of my soul.
‘Dad who is he?’ the kid asked Dr. Kim as he tugged the white coat he’s wearing. Dr. Kim on the other hand squatted down, meeting the eyes of his child with his own.
‘He’s Lee Jinki, a patient I’m currently handling. Now go back to my station Kim Kibum and wait for me there. Understood?’ He patted the brown locks of his son and once again stood to look at me.
Kim Kibum…His name really fits him. He holds a certain charm I couldn’t distinguish. Is it those almond-shaped eyes that stared back right through my eyes or is it about the way he responded to his father with stubbornness? He has captivated me from the time he entered my room and I found myself longing to learn more about him.
Somewhat his action reminded me of myself. I’ve always envisioned myself rebelling to my parents once or twice. I wanted to act naughty around them.
But I can’t… I couldn’t bear myself to give them more troubles.
‘I don’t wanna go back, appa. I would die of boredom if I stay at that room for more than a second. Can I stay here? I want to be friends with him.’ He whined at his appa, tugging his coat’s sleeve and batting his eyes for added effect.
He wants to be friends with me
The fact that this beautiful boy wants to be friends with me made my cheeks portray a light pink color. With all honesty, I am not an interesting person to deal with.
But wanting to be friends with me implied that he’s interested to get to know me and that sent my lips curving to form a smile as I watched Dr. Kim and the boy, Kibum, talking in a soft manner.
‘No, he needs to rest. You might stress him out and-‘
‘But appa I want to know him. Please?’
Dr. Kim turned again his direction towards me and for the umpteenth time, flashed an apologetic expression. He also mouthed a I’m sorry at me. Maybe it’s about time to butt in to their conversation.
‘Dr. Kim it’s okay. I mean it’s also boring without anyone to talk to.’ I smiled back at Kibum while latter portrayed an approving expression, his lips tugged into a small smile. I turned my direction back to Dr. Kim, who just drew out a sigh of exasperation.
‘Well…Jinki, if Kibum stresses you out just press that button-‘ he pointed the button on the top of my bed’s headboard ‘-and I’ll ask a nurse to usher my son out.’ He took down some observations on my record before leaving me and Kibum alone in my room.
Silence prevailed over the room as we continued to stare at each other’s eyes. He continued to survey me while I fidget nervously over his stares. I could feel those almond-shaped eyes criticizing me from head to toe, like he’s stripping my cover away and exposing my true self.
The eerie atmosphere was suffocating me. I decided to say something to break the uncomfortable silence surrounding us.
‘Uhhhmm..Hi?’ I asked hesitantly.
After a short moment of silence, he suddenly broke down, laughing furiously as tears welled on his eyes. I couldn’t help myself but to chuckle a bit as he clutched his stomach and continued his outbursts.
A few seconds after, he soon calmed down, a wide grin plastered on his face as he faced my direction once more. The lovely sight in front of me made my fragile heart flutter with glee. Wow he’s so beautiful.
He walked towards my bed, walking with a quick pace until he was standing beside my bed. As he walked closer to me I could feel my heart racing into a tenfold.
But, unlike those times when my heart would race and constrict my chest painfully, this time it was a pleasurable feeling. It was something foreign to me and to my young mind and I honestly want to feel more of it.
‘Oh gosh you’re such a cute dork! Anyways I’m Kibum. Nice meeting you Jinki.’ He extended his arm and beamed me a grin.
‘Nice meeting you too.’ I shook his hand, feeling the smooth texture of his alabaster white skin through my fingertips. The contact sent electricity coursing through my veins.
Why am I feeling this way towards him?
I broke our contact, feeling delighted of the new-found friend I have and by the way his eyes turned into small slits while smiling, I could sense that he was also delighted to know me.
Little did I know that it was the start of my own fairytale.
~_____________________________________*_________________________________~
A flock of birds flew through the clear blue sky, their wings stretched out while gliding through the sky in synchronization. I found myself amazed by their movements, staring amusedly as they flapped their wings.
I was too engrossed in watching that I failed to notice another presence approaching me.
‘Boo’
The sudden voice in front of me snapped me back to the reality and startling me in the process. He chuckled lightly, amused by my shocked expression and plopped down on the other side of the bench.
‘Oh god Kibum, can you please stop scaring me? My heart almost went out of my mouth because of what you did.’ I clutched my chest tightly, trying to calm down my racing heart.
‘Gosh Jinki it was just a slight “boo” and you’re already acting like you’ve run a marathon after seeing a ghost.’
‘Well, if you don’t remember, my heart is too “weak” to take that kind of stuff.’ From my peripheral vision I could see him tensing up a bit, obviously regretting the reckless action he had done beforehand.
A week has passed since I first met Kibum but it felt like we’ve known each other for a long time. After our first meeting, he had always visited my room, sharing some facts about him while I listened to him intently.
During that duration of knowing Kibum, I have noticed small changes about myself. I look forward to everyday in a positive view. Everything that was once dull-looking into my eyes once again regains its shine. This is the first time that I’ve forgotten that I’m a gravely-ill person that can’t have a happy ending of his own.
So okay I’m joking. Kibum’s presence in my life right now didn’t change me a bit but it changed my whole self.
‘Sorry. I didn’t mean to.’ I turned towards his direction, finding his head bent down while his lips muttered words “Kibum, you’re so stupid”.
‘Don’t worry, it’s okay.’ I scooted closer towards him and patted his soft brown locks. ‘At least nothing happened. Right?’ I stopped patting him and gave him a wide grin
‘Well fine, fine. So what are we gonna do right now. Are we just gonna sit here and admire the plants placed on the hospital’s park?’
‘Uhhmmm…well what do you want to do?’
‘Well let’s go ov-OUCH!‘
A soccer ball suddenly rolled towards our direction, hitting Kibum’s foot hard. Worry covered my whole being as I watched Kibum winced in pain and soothed the part where the ball hit him.
‘Are you okay?’ I positioned myself nearer to him, feeling the heat radiating from his petite form as he continued to caress the spot.
‘Yeah, I’m fine but it hurts a lot.’ I reached out for the ball that had hit him and held it in between my small hands.
I’ve always wanted to play soccer you know. I’ve always dreamed of hitting this ball into the net and creating a score for my team. Then the crowd will cheer for me as I ran down on the vast field so I could catch the ball.
But it was one of those dreams that have vanished after learning my condition.
‘Well I’ll return this for a while-‘ I held up the ball towards my chest and turned my direction towards the group of children. ‘-to those who are playing there. Maybe they’re looking for it already.’
‘Wait for me. I’ll come with you.’ He limply stood up, using my shoulder as his handle while steadying his position.
‘Are you sure it doesn’t hurt anymore? Why don’t you just sit here for a while? I promise it won’t take long.’
‘Well being hit by a ball on my leg won’t be the death of me Jinki so stop being a worrywart and let’s just give this ball back.’ He walked away with slow steps while I followed him at his back.
After a minute of walking, we finally reached the open field where the group of small kids was situated.
‘Uhhmm…We found this ball near our place so we’re wondering if this belongs to you.’ I handed him the ball while his expression lightened up, beaming me as smile as the kid called up his other teammates.
‘Look these kids found our ball. Let’s all thank them properly.’ Soon we heard choruses of ‘Thanks’ and ‘Thank You’ from the small crowd.
‘Don’t mention it.’ I said while a light blush crept into my cheeks. This was the first time a group of people thanked me for my good deed.
Watching on my peripheral vision, I could see Kibum felt the same, giving the team a radiating smile in return.
‘Well do you want to join us?’
‘Uhmm maybe I’ll pass fir-‘ I said in reply but he cut off my statement.
‘Please?’ he put up a pleading face. ‘It’s the only way we know to repay your kindness to us.’
I know this is a no-no for me. Dr. Kim told me not to engage in this kind of thing. But I’m falling for the temptation of playing the game.
Maybe just once. After I shoot my first goal, I’ll stop. I won’t do anything afterwards.
‘Uhmmm…okay. Kibum and I will be playing.’ I could see from the sideline Kibum’s shocked face as he listened to my reply.
‘But Jinki you-‘
‘after striking my first goal, we’ll stop playing. It’s kind of hard for me play with my condition. Is that okay?’ The kid nodded in agreement.
‘Well nice meeting you by the way. I’m Hongki, 6 years old. What about yours?’
‘Well I’m Jinki and this is Kibum-‘ I pointed my hand over Kibum, who was standing beside me already. ‘-and we’re both 7 years of age. Nice meeting you Hongki.’ I shook his hands lightly showing the new-found friendship between us.
‘Well let’s go start the game already Jinki, Kibum. Position yourselves.’ He positioned the ball on the ground then kicked it after a few seconds.
I could feel the adrenaline pulsing into ever part of my body as I ran over the field to catch the ball. I could feel the corner of my lips tugging into a wide smile as I stole the ball from the opponent and rolled it in between my feet.
I ran towards the net, rolling the ball in between my feet to avoid the others from stealing it away from me. When I thought that I’m already near the net, I kicked the ball with all of my strength.
I watched the ball passed through the goal keeper and hitting the net. I couldn’t help but feel accomplished as I saw their reactions to my kick.
‘Wow Jinki, I didn’t know you can kick so well.’ Hongki tapped my shoulder while I panted due to the strenuous run I’ve had.
‘Well, I-ah‘
Ba-thump
I clutched on my chest, feeling my heart racing painfully. My surroundings became a messy blur and my breathing became uneven. I could feel my body screaming for more oxygen as I slumped down the grassy field while still holding the throbbing part on my chest.
‘OH GOD JINKI! CALL THE NURSE!’ Kibum knelt beside me holding one of my hands while tears streamed into his round cheeks.
It was the last thing I saw before I fell once more to the darkness.
a/n: this fic is long forgotten I believe. I have last updated this since like...last millenium or something.
So who's happy with Shinee's PV that came out today? *raises my hands*
Waaahhhh they're all looking good there *______* AND TAEMIN sakfhbaskhbf /dies/
