Chapter 51

“ In the hospital. "

He said and he placed his right hand on my forehead.

“ How are you feeling? "

He asked but my head was still processing the first thing he had said.

Hospital? What am I doing in a hospital???

Wait, has he ran me over with his car again??

“ What am I doing in a hospital? How did I get here? "

I asked and he stared at me.

“ What did you expect, huh? Trying to walk down the stairs by yourself. "

He said in a slight frown.

“ Stairs. "

I muttered...

Then the memories of last night came to my head, I recalled what happened.

I was feeling bored so I went in search of Kyung-gu but then I stopped at the stairs. I thought of walking down it but I realized my legs weren't strong enough to do that so I turned to go back to my room so I could make a call downstairs when I felt a force_ a hand pushed me at the back.

Someone actually pushed me...who?

“ I didn't try walking down the stairs. "

I said.

“ Then how come you were found on the staircase unconscious? "

He said, still frowning at me.

“ I didn't walk down the stairs, someone pushed me, I felt a hand push me from behind. "

I said still trying to think who could do such an evil act.

“ W..what! "

He exclaimed in shock moving back away from me alittle and I watched as his face soon after became lighted up in anger.

“ You mean someone pushed you? "

He asked, I have never seen him this angry before, not even when he hit Dr Son was he this angry and it was making me scared kinda.

“ I..I felt a hand push me from behind..I can't be mistaken, can I?.. I mean who would do such a thing? "

I said and I saw his face go from anger to sadness.

He came closer to me, placing the back of his right palm gently on my left cheek and I felt my heart skip from his touch.

“ I..I am sorry Ji-a. You have had to suffer a lot because of me. I knocked you down with my vehicle and now someone from my house pushed you down the stairs. "

He said sighing painfully before continuing.

“ I want to promise you this, from today onwards you are my responsibility, I won't let anything nor anyone hurt you ever again, even myself. I promise you this. "

He said and as he spoke I felt my heart racing.

Then my heart made a giant limp when he crouched down towards my face... planting a kiss on my forehead.

★

Oh my God!

What's happening??

Lee Chun is kissing me and I am not doing anything - hitting him or slapping him, nothing!

I couldn't, cause it felt something different.

Apart from the fact that my whole cheeks had turned completely red, my intestines were also dancing joyously inside my tummy even before his lips kept in contact with my forehead.

Prior to that event, the way he spoke, when he said those things. When he said to me, about me being his responsibility from now on.

I could feel and sense the sincerity in his voice, it felt as if it was coming from somewhere deep inside him, not just his lips, it felt it was coming from somewhere far deeper than that like.. like his heart.

And that realization gave me a weird feeling in my heart, a surge of exciting yet scary feelings as my heart was pounding so fast it hurts slightly.

It was an intense feeling, like nothing I have ever felt but overall it felt great!..

His lips stayed on my forehead for some lengthy seconds before he finally withdrew his face away from mine but those few seconds it felt like I wanted to have a heart attack.

My heart was pounding so hard, I could hear it, and when he stopped kissing on my forehead and staring at me... I felt my eyes blinking uncontrollably, I couldn't control it, I couldn't coordinate it, I couldn't make it stop.

He kept staring at me like he wanted to say something to me but wasn't really sure yet.

“ Ji-a will you... " He said, then paused.

“ I will go ask the doctor if it's okay for me to take you home this morning. "

He then said warmly and I nodded.

I couldn't speak, my heart was still racing fast and I had totally lost control of my eyes movement.

It felt embarrassing but he didn't make any comment on it, making me wonder whether he didn't notice my strange eyes movement? Of course he did.

“ I will be back okay. "

He said with a soft pat on my hair before he walked out the room - he kept his eyes on me the whole time until he finally closed the door behind him.

“ Ahhh! "

I gasped.

Immediately placing my left hand on my chest, my heart region.

It was beating so fast and loud that it's movement was lifting my palm up and down.

What the hell!

What kind of feeling is this?

I gave the side of my face a light tap, trying to get control of my blinking eyes just the way someone taps a faulty clock or remote controller for it to start working properly..

After some lengthy seconds I finally regained control of my eyes muscles and my heart beat slowly gradually started beating normally.

But the weird thing was that I missed it. I missed that strange feeling I got when Lee Chun's lips were on my head and when he spoke from the heart.

I missed how fast my heart was beating even though it felt like I was about to have a heart attack.

I don't know what's really wrong with me, maybe I am starting to go insane...

I placed my right hand on my forehead, the exact area he kissed me on and a silly smile formed on my face.

His words replaying in my head.

“ ...from today onwards you are my responsibility... "

What does he mean by that? I don't really know but just thinking about those words was making me all excited...

After a while I heard the door make an opening, Lee Chun is back?

My heart started getting excited again. Instantly my heart was beating fast.

The door opened up wide and someone walked inside...but it wasn't Lee Chun.

“ Byung-ho! "

I called out, I was happy to see him but my heart beat didn't beat loudly anymore it suddenly became calm.

” Ji-a. "

He called softly, then walked to my bed, sitting on the edge of the bed he held my hand.

” How are you? I came immediately and I heard about what happened to you. I am so sorry... How did this happen? "

He said looking really concerned...

Lee Chun's POV

Walking for a few minutes in search of the doctor, I finally found him. I then inquired from him if Ji-a is good enough to come home with me.

His answer was exactly what I wanted to hear but he said he would have to do a final check up on her before he can then discharge her.

So we both walked back to Ji-a's private ward together, one of the nurses accompanying us also....

I was so close in doing something I had never done in my life, I was so close in asking Ji-a out, the words were in my lips.

But it didn't feel right, I am not even sure about what I am feeling right now.

All I know is she is constantly in my thoughts, she was in my thoughts although last night I was at a party with Byung-ho....

On opening the door, I found out Ji-a had company, my best friend Byung-ho.

They both were holding hands laughing and smiling, that sight hurt me alot in the chest, straight in the heart.

I know Byung-ho likes Ji-a, and I know Ji-a also likes Byung-ho, I don't know to what extent she likes him but I do know she likes him.

And I know I have no right to be but I was.. I was really jealous... however I wasn't angry, I couldn't be angry at any of them. Neither Byung-ho and definitely not Ji-a.

“ Lee Chun, you are here? Have you been here since morning or you just arrived? "

Byung-ho asked, looking surprised to see me.

Didn't Ji-a tell him I was here? that I have been here all night?? I guess she was so happy seeing him that she completely forgot about me.

“ Please check if she is good enough to be discharged. "

I said to the doctor ignoring Byung-ho silly questions.

The doctor and his nurse did their thing on Ji-a while Byung-ho sat up and came to me.

“ Where did you go last night? You got me all worried and you weren't even picking my calls. "

He said in a whispering angry tone.

“ I had to get away from that party, your friend is a psychopath. "

I said in a low tone.
