11 W...What Are You?
My eyes slowly shut open and look at the place. I smile widely at the sight of Jungmin, who's sleeping peacefully and caresses his hair. He looks at me and suddenly, hugs me tightly. I slowly brush his back, confused about his actions. He loosens the embrace and wipes his tears.
"I'm glad you're okay!" He exclaims.
I laugh at his action and smack his arms.
"I'm fine! What are you talking about?" I ask, and he gently sits on the bed. He tilts his head on the side.
"You don't recall what happened yesterday?" I shake my head as an answer.
"What happened yesterday? As I recall, we went back home early when seeing... Taehyung and Amia… Almost making out." I mention in a gloomy voice, trying to forget what I've seen.
It's hurting my eyes and my heart.
"No not that! The other thing. 2 men chasing you when you were in the park. I wish I was there to protect you." He says hysterically.
"Chasing me? Are you serious? I was sleeping the entire time. Are you high? Have you eaten your food?" I reply.
I feel the pain all over my body whilst trying to sit down. I endure the pain and force myself to sit. His eyes glance at me with a hint of concern. I give him a quick smile and convince him that I'm fine. He releases a sigh as he shakes his head.
"I'll get you some cereals and don't move. We won't be attending the class today." He says and steps out of the room. I rub my aching temples and get back to bed.
I try to recall the situation but nothing comes out. What I recall was them. I try to resist from crying since I've been grieving for the entire week and it's exhausting. I grab my phone on the table and browse the news.
'Two men in a bunny mask arrested when striving to kidnap the young woman in the park. One of them is a professor at Moon University.'
A familiar man's figure captures my attention.
"It's our professor who kept on looking at me." I whisper as I zoom in the picture.
I furrow my eyebrows, thinking about what Jungmin told me a minute ago. Is it possible that I'm one they're referring to? But why didn't I remember?
"Here's your food MinMin so eat up!" I put my phone on the side and get my food from him.
"Thank you, Minnie. You shouldn't have to do this. Just attend the class. I can take care of myself." He snorts out and shakes his head.
"I can't let you here alone and besides Jinwoo will attend my class to get notes for me and for you as well. I contacted our instructor that we will be absent today so no need to worry about." I nod my head and eat my food.
After that, he gives me a painkiller and places one inside my mouth.
"I took medicine plenty of times after we moved out, " I assert.
"What do you want to do now? We have all day to have some fun." He speaks. I glance at him whilst thinking about the place I want to visit.
"We could go to the amusement park or the beach," I reply, trying to sound happy.
"That sounds great, I should contact them to come along with us. Wait, a second." He grabs his phone and rushes outside my room.
I walk through the room and sit on a couch, near the window. My room is on the second floor that can explore the surroundings, mountains from far away, enormous trees, and the neighborhood. Whilst glancing at the window, I notice a man's figure underneath the tree, staring at me like he's watching over me. I rub my eyes and he just disappears.
"Who could that be?" I ask myself as my head leaning the window. Within a minute, my door slams open as Jungmin smiles widely and sits beside me.
"What?" I ask. He shakes his head.
"They are coming to get some fun." I roll my eyes at him and smack the back of his head.
"You dragged them here just having some fun. I... is—" He cut me off and says.
"No, he is not coming. He needs something to do, " I smile, trying to convince him that it's fine. In deep thoughts, I wish he could join but he'll be with Amia.
My heart breaks again whilst imagining about them, hurting me like it's unfair. He's happy with her yet, I'm hoping for him.
"Not again! Don't cry MinMin, please. I can't handle it when seeing you hurt. I'm always here for you okay? For now, think about this trip okay?" I nod and wipe my tears.
We walk down when we hear a honk from outside. I see them smiling at us.
"Let's go to the amusement park and have some fun!" Minseok screams and pushes us out of the house.
—
After a long ride, we travel to the famous amusement park where all the netizens and tourists try extreme rides and get some delicious food. They all push me to the roller coaster, but I refuse.
"Oh come on Minsoo!" Minseok pleads me to come.
"I... I can't ride the roller coaster. I... I'm afraid of heights." He pouts and shakes my arms, convincing me to join with him.
"Minseok, you can't force Minsoo if she doesn't want to ride. Let's go!" Daewool exclaims and pushes Minseok away from me.
Jungmin and Jinwoo stay beside me and go to the food stall to purchase food. We sit on the bench and Jinwoo gives my food and drink.
"Thank you."
"Are you afraid of heights? How come? As far as I remembered, you love riding that extreme rides when we were a little." Jinwoo exclaims before biting his corn dog.
I laugh and shake my head.
"Are you serious? I hate riding that thing and Jungmin knows that." I explain. I glance at Jungmin, who's sternly looking elsewhere.
"Jungmin, are you okay?" He smiles and nods.
"I'm enjoying this trip so do—" He cuts off, noticing an odd around the theme park.
My eyes travel the place to see what's going on. My eyes widen when it stops moving. Minseok, Daewool, Mingyu, and Seojun race towards us and gather around to cover me.
I gasp when hearing a loud voice coming from the front.
"What was happening?" I ask them, trying to calm myself. Jungmin wraps his palm to mine and smiles.
"You'll be fine Minsoo if you're just stuck with me. After this, you won't recall what happened." Minseok mumbles. I try to ask him but nothing a word comes out in my mouth.
My eyes wide and gasp when shiny, glamorous white wings appear to their back and one thing I notice, they don't have a halo. I try to walk closer to them but a masculine hand stops me.
"Don't," Jinwoo said while looking at them.
"Well, what do we have here. Three famous angels. Where's the other one? What's his name? Oh, Araqiel" The man says as he crosses his arms.
"What are doing here Jackson?" Daewool asks. I feel a shiver on my spine when a laugh echoes inside my ears. Jungmin and Jinwoo embrace me to calm me.
"I'm here to welcome the girl from behind." He says, striving to saunter towards me. They all stop him.
"Don't try to come close to Minsoo or I will kill you, Jackson," Mingyu says in a serious tone.
"Ohh, feisty. Too bad for you, I'm not scared Mr. Angel, or should I say, Louis. No, you're not an angel anymore even if you have white wings. " He teases Mingyu.
He growls but before he attacks the guy, Daewool stops him.
"What do you need Jackson?" Seojun asks.
"That girl behind you. We are craving for her blood. Her blood strengthens us." He utters without removing his eyes on me. I look down and hug Jungmin tightly.
"But I don't want to ruin Master's plan so what am I going to do is to advise you."
"Advice? Why are we supposed to believe in an incubus like you?" Mingyu asks.
"You need not believe me. I'm just an incubus like you said. I just came here to warn you not to fight, Angels." He chuckles while pointing his blade to Seojun. They all back away to dodge the dagger.
"Coward. I'm just teasing! Anyway, my time is out. I will tell you to be careful and don't ever walk alone, or we will get you and kill you, little princess." He laughs and gradually disappears.
My entire body stumbles but Jungmin catches me. I push him harder and back away when they all come closer.
"Don't!" I yell. Jungmin guides me to sit on the bench and Seojun sits beside me. He smiles.
"Don't be afraid, we won't hurt you." I bite my lips and gently nod.
A quiver rushes through my body when he holds my hands.
"W... What... are you?" I ask.
He releases a sigh. I look at them, who now transform into humans.
"We... we are an angel. A fallen angel to be exact." He explains. I gasp and back away.
Minseok's arms wrap around me to stop me. "What are you going to do, Seojun."
"I need to remove this scene inside your head. I'm sorry Minsoo." He gives me a warm smile and points his finger into my forehead.
After a minute, my body stumbles on someone's arms as my vision goes black.
