Chapter 6 Walls rebuilt

"Do you need a special order to get out of my bed or something?" Soren asked coldly after he realized Kim was awake. Kim still had a bad hangover but he still remembered what happened the previous night.

"What do you mean?" He asked still scratching his head.

"Get off my bed and out of my life!" Soren fired angrily.

"Why...why are you like this. You....you were different yester-" Kim answered him scared

"Yesterday was a mistake on my path. You were drunk and I was out of my mind. It's meaningless just forget about it all." Soren replied carrying his bag ready to leave.

"Mistake?" Kim asked recalling everything that happened the previous night.

"Yeah. Look, just transfer out of here immediately cause you're making me really uncomfortable." Soren replied turning to the door ready to leave.

"N...no. I won't leave why are you being like this?" Kim asked as he stood and grabbed his arm.

"Fine. If you won't leave I would leave." Soren replied not looking back at him as he left the room shaking Kim's hand off his arm.

*Why? Just why! Am I that bad? Why is he being like this?* Kim asked himself crying hearing the door bang in his face. He started to hyperventilate and the voices of kids that criticized him when he was younger seemed louder and louder as each second passed. He curled up on the floor trying hard to stabilize his breathing block his ear and stop his tears. It was hard for him to do all and he was really scared. Why did he have to be treated like that? What did he ever do wrong? was the only thought on his mind.

*Help me! Please someone help me!* He cried out in his mind slowly fainting slowly everything went pitch black....

"Is he awake?" The male voice asked as he slowly opened his eyes to a really bright room.

"Shhhhh. Let him rest." The familiar feminine voice replied.

He tried to sit up but it was really difficult the only thing he could do was move his eyes about.

"Chon?" He called out reaching out for someone to hold his hand.

"Are you okay?" Mei replied as she held his hand.

"What happened?" He asked sitting up with Mei and Chon's support.

"You had a panic attack and a really bad hangover. Good thing a senior in the other dorm was still around when it happened. We contacted the orphanage home you stayed for your medical report they were surprised to hear we were your friends." Mei explained.

"They even found it difficult to find your reports. Still, you're never drinking again. But what really happened? You were alone what caused your panic attack?" Chon asked smacking Kim's shoulder.

"Hey, don't hit him" Mei fired smacking Chon's head.

Kim zoned out and recalled what happened between him and Soren, he was confused about Soren's unpredictable behaviors. Also the orphanage home, why didn't they recognize him as someone important.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Mei asked realizing that Kim had zoned and was looking really gloomy.

"Did you have a fight with you roommate?" She asked again gently shaking Kim.

"That asshole senior. I'll get him for this." Chon said furiously clenching his fists.

"No, it was my fault so just leave him. Can't we leave here now? I seriously hate hospitals smell" Kim replied trying to get off the bed.

"You should rest a bit more. A woman from Hope orphanage called the clinic, she wanted to cover the hospital fees." A tall guy replied smiling with four cups of milkshakes in his hands.

"Who are you?" Kim asked pulling the blanket above him.

"Senior Mark. You're back from class." Mei called out smiling not giving Mark a chance to answer Kim.

"Senior Mark?" Kim asked staring daggers at Mark.

"Yeah. He brought you to the clinic and when Mei called to ask if you weren't coming to class he told us what happened." Chon answered as he smiled collecting the drinks from Mark.

"Oh, then...thank you" Kim said shyly averting Mark's gaze.

"It's nothing. Good to know you're ok now. I just came to drop milkshakes for you and your friends." Mark replied as he flashed a smile.

"I should get going now. Stay healthy Kim." He added as he left waving at Mei and Chon.

"He's so dreamy. I wish all seniors were like him." Mei said picturing Mark's handsome face in his head.

"Especially that asshole senior of yours. Anyways you should rest a bit more. We'll take notes for you so rest up." Chon said patting Kim's head.

"Then we'll head to class now. Ivy reserved seats for us." Mei added as she and Chon left for class. Kim laid back down thinking about what had happened between he and Soren.

...............................................

He entered the room quietly to check if Soren was inside but the room was empty and some of Soren's basic things were gone.

"He really left." Kim said to himself dragging his feet as he entered into the room. He couldn't understand the sudden cause of Soren's change of behavior.

"I wonder where he went." He said again picking up one of Soren's textbook. A note fell from inside with a phone number on it.

*It wouldn't hurt to give it a try. I don't even have his phone number.* Kim thought as he finally dialed the number after contemplating for a long time.

"Hello, who's this?" Aldo asked from the other end of the phone.

"Oh...He...hello I'm Kim, Senior Soren's roommate." He replied stammering.

"Kim? Soren never spoke about his roommate. What's up?" Aldo asked again.

"Uhmmm, I.....we had a..... I mean I don't have Senior Soren's number and he's not at the dorm now so I was wondering if you could know where he was." Kim replied unsure of what to say.

"Oh, Soren went to the student council to quit the contest. He said you got him into it, I'll text you his number." Aldo replied immediately.

"Oh, thank you Senior. By the way what's your name?" Kim asked happily.

"Aldo. I'll text you the number now." He replied dropping the call as he immediately texted Kim Soren's number.

Kim hesitated and finally dialed Soren's number. It rang for a while and then he finally picked up.

"Hello. Who's this?" Soren asked from the other end.

"Uhmm.... It's me Senior Soren." Kim replied in a low tone.

"Kim?" Soren asked again.

"Yeah it-" Kim almost completed as Soren dropped the call immediately.

*What did I do wrong?* Kim asked himself staring at the phone screen.

........................................................................................

"Who was that?" The grown man sitting opposite Soren asked.

"No one. So, have you found the orphanage yet?" Soren asked impatiently.

"Chill dude. Your brother was last seen there but I'm not sure anymore. It's Hope orphanage the one run by that charity foundation your father always donates to." The man replied passing a brown envelope to Soren.

"Hope orphanage...." Soren called again

*I'll find you soon. Really soon.* Soren thought determined as he tightly held the document.
