Chapter 11

Mina's POV

"You know what? She's a bitch." Nayeon said as she slapped the table using her bare hand. "Does Seulgi even know that Jimin's already married, and then she's still hitting up on him? Nah-uh, that is a bitch right there, Mina, I swear." She said as she crossed both of her arms and layed her back on the wall as she looked at me.

I remained to keep silent as I listen to what both Jin and Nayeon told me, but my mind is seriously floating and is elsewhere. Half of my head wants to take a complete and long rest and half of it couldn't let go of thinking about Jimin right now. My mind and heart is in chaos at this time, and all I could ever do right now is to cry and cry, and nothing else.

"What Jimin did is wrong too," Jin said as he tapped my head gently trying to calm myself down. "If he already knew that Seulgi is there with him, he should've walked away leaving her alone or atleast fucking slap her in the face because that's what bitches deserve in the first place!" Jin's voice raised a little, and it seemed like he shouted too loud. He realized it after and he covered his mouth.

I rubbed my nose as I sniffed. My nose is getting runny because of all the crying I did earlier, but I'm so glad that I have thoughtful friends like Jin and Nayeon comforting me at times when I need some company and help.

Nayeon walked up towards me, and sat down beside me. She slowly hugged me tightly and tapped my back gently. I layed my head above her shoulder, and she whispered something to me.

"You know what, Mina?" She said. "If you need some help or advice, we'll always be here, okay?" Those words sincerely touched my heart and I nodded a little as a response.

"Yep, because that's what friends are for, right?" Jin said, and I smiled at him. I guess I am one of the luckiest persons alive to have met these one of a kind friends, and they never fail to make me smile and happy.

"And if you ever feel like giving up someday," Nayeon said and she held both of my shoulders and gave me a sweet and huge smile which made me feel even more okay. "Just let your heart take a rest, and don't give up and leave everything else behind. I trust in you, and I know you can do it."

I smiled at her and nodded, "Sure. Thanks, guys." I said and they moved closer to me and they gave me a big and warm hug which I really needed for today to lessen all of my worries and problems.

"So, where did you left Jimin?" Jin asked. I smiled sheepishly and tried to remember what happened earlier. I talked to him, and told him that I just need some rest and walked away from him.

"I don't know," I said. "All I can remember is I walked away from him, the end." They both nodded. It still makes me feel sad and guilty since I left him behind. Would he be mad that I left him alone? Will we argue if we see each other the next day? Will he leave me alone for the whole day? All of these questions started to fill my mind again.

We were busy talking to each other, when I heard a phone rang and which caught all of our attention. We turned our heads to where the sound is coming from, and Jin stood up to see who's calling by this time around. He said that the sound was coming from my phone, so I told him that he should answer it right away.

The next thing he he did and said surprised me and my heart almost dropped to what he had just said.

"Mina, it's about Jimin," Jin said and he looked at me with worry. "He's in the hospital."

"What?" I mouthed silently, "No.."

Seulgi's POV

I hurriedly followed to where the nurses are taking Jimin. My hands are trembling right now and I don't know what to do. I also felt nervous when the guy pointed his gun towards me. I wanted to kick him in the ass, but even my hands and feet couldn't move on its own because I was afraid.

"Ms?" The nurse approached me and asked what my name is.

"Kang Seulgi," I said.

"Ms. Kang." The nurse nodded a little and she asked me if I'm Jimin's girlfriend. My heart started to beat fast, when once in a while, I was called again as Jimin's girlfriend. I don't know whether I should feel grateful or embarrassed about it, but the truth here is, he's already married.

I opened my mouth a little to answer her back, "I'm.. his close friend." And after that I smiled back at the nurse. The nurse told me that Jimin just lost his consciousness and he'll be okay, except for he had small scars on his face.

"Can I go inside the room?" I asked her. She nodded right away and gave me way to enter his room. I thanked her shortly and entered. My heart was racing fast as a road runner as soon as I saw him lying on the hospital bed unconsciously. I felt a lot of different emotions inside of me. I was petrified as soon as I locked the door from the inside. The corners of my eyes started heating up and formed little tears that didn't want to fall down. I held my chest and endured the pain that my heart is being eaten by.

"C-Chim..." I whispered under my breath as I slowly make my way towards him. His face is full of fresh wounds, scars and bruises. If it pains me to see him in a state like this, I don't know how Mina would feel. She will surely break down and the pain that she will feel is 10 times worse.

I sat down beside his bed and stroked my forefinger through his broken face. I tried holding back my tears because I know how much he hated my tears rolling down my cheeks, but I failed. They streamed through my cheeks and fell on his face. I used my hand to cover my mouth from sobbing. I took his hand and interlocked it with both of mine.

"Please, please wake up, baby..." I whispered. "...I may not be the reason why you'll wake up, but please...please fight." I murmured and continued sobbing on his hand. I looked at him and wiped my tears away. He's still sleeping peacefully and I hated it. He might just sleep for the rest of his life. He can't. He mustn't. He won't. "Just t-think of the moment you fell in love with her. Just think all of the happiest moments you've had with Mina. Just think if everything that makes you both happy. Just think that you'll be fighting because she's the reason why." I said with an almost faint voice. It's alright for me if I won't be the reason why you'll wake up anymore. It's alright if you won't love me just like before. It's alright if this will be the last time that I will be with you. Just please wake up, Chim.

I heard the door's creak, so I quickly wiped my tears away and let go of Jimin's hand. I stood up and waited the person who knocked. I'm not surprised to see Mina right now. I expected her to come in anytime since she has the right to know. She has the right to barge in and throw me out of this place.

She has two people behind her and I think those are her friends. Both of her friends looked shocked when their gazes went to Mina's unconscious husband. I became very nervous as soon as my eyes met Mina's. I suddenly felt hard to breathe. I gulped and balled my hands into fists to calm down. I was expecting her to throw hurtful words at me, but I saw her enraged friend make his way towards me.

"You bitch! How dare you?!" He yelled and started pulling my hair. "Didn't you know that you're breaking a relationship?!"

"Agh!" I groaned and tried stopping him from pulling my hair. I don't know why am I not fighting him back. If I'm not in a situation like this, I might've pulled his hair back as well, but no. I just tried my best to stop him from what he's doing. "Stop it! It hurts already! My scalp hurts!" I yelled and held his wrists to make him stop, but he's too strong. I'm nothing compared to him.

"The pain that you're experiencing right now is no match to my friend's emotional pain! You bitch! You deserve a cup of coffee with Satan in hell!" I can feel a few strands of my hair getting pulled out from my head. Oh, gosh.

"Stop it already!" I yelled once more, but he didn't listen. It took a while before Mina and her other friend tried stopping him. Maybe they watched me suffer first before stopping him because they knew that it's becoming worse already.

"I'm not done yet with you, bitch!" Her guy--gay friend, I suppose, tried to fight me once more, but Mina whispered something to him. I can see their little argument infront of me. I tried combing my hair using my fingers, but it's just so messed up. I have to use a comb. "But, Mina--!"

"Let me handle it, Jin. It's okay." My eyebrows furrowed when Mina half-smiled at that Jin guy. Jin rolled his eyes and groaned in frustration with his other friend and then Mina slowly walked towards me. I felt my heart pounding as she takes one step at a time to make her way towards my direction.

I gulped and didn't even dare to greet her since I'm too nervous. I feel like my heart is going to pump out of my chest. Her glance went to her husband, my beloved ex-boyfriend. I can see how her throat made an up and down movement, meaning that she continuously gulped. I'm certain that she's still in a state of shock and she's still worried as heck of his condition. Anyone would be worried if they see someone's faced so bruised and broken.

"I actually don't know if I should thank you first or slap you in the face for bringing him in a situation like this." I can feel how mad she is, yet she's remained calm. She heaved a deep and long sigh and looked straight into my eyes. Her hands balled into fists. "I-I don't know what to say, Seulgi. If you were in my shoes, what would you probably do as a wife? Wouldn't you feel useless and unworthy? Wouldn't you slap that mistress?"

"I-I know," I lowered my head down, feeling very shameful. "But I just had to explain my side, Mina." I decided to face her and with all of my courage. I did my best to explain why am I feeling and why did I choose to still be with Jimin even though he's already married. "W-When Jimin broke up with me that day..." I suddenly felt hard to breathe. Remembering that day still pains my heart. I can't forget the feeling. "...my world crushed. It felt surreal. I felt my heart died. I also felt the feeling of being all useless and unworthy. 'Am I unworthy of being his girlfriend?', 'Am I not enough?' Those questions just popped inside my head." Her face still seemed cold, even though I'm stating the truth. I chuckled a little and sighed. "I knew that he's going to get married soon, but I still risked my love for him. People become stupid when it comes to love, right? Maybe I'm one of those people. Even though he's already wed with you, I longed for his love. I wanted him to love me back, just the way he loves you. Just the way he did back then with me, so I did all of the possible things to make me lovable in his sight once more. But guess what? He still chose you."

She kept silent; her face becoming less colder than earlier. "Maybe I b-became desperate for wanting him. I became too self-centered and I wanted to apologize to that. When he fell unconscious earlier, I didn't know what to do. I thought of how would you probably feel once you see him lying on this bed." I felt the corner of my eyes heat up once more just like earlier, a signal that my tears may just fall anytime. I do not want her to see these lonely tears of mine because I might just look weak infront of her. It suddenly felt hard for me to speak because it feels like something is stuck inside my throat, forbidding my words to come out.

"We're alike, Mina." I told her with a tight smile on my face.

"No, we're not." She softly spoke. "We may have felt the same, but our difference is that I'm not desperate." With that, she turned to her husband's direction and caressed his soft cheeks that I used to touch before.

I decided to walk away instead, so I can give them a private time, but I heard my name being called by Jimin.

"Seul?" I tightly shut my eyes and without looking back, I exited the room as my tears streamed through my cheeks.
