Chapter 3 - Episode 3 - Broken Boy

Chanyeol watched the scene in front of him, dropping his phone on the ground in shock.

Sehun tried to push his Omma away but couldn't. He had cuts and gashes on his shoulders, arms, and hands. Including his back as well. His Appa saw Chanyeol and went up to him pushing him to the floor, smashing his phone.

"Tell anyone and we'll blame it on you," His Appa threatened and slammed the door in Chanyeol's face.

Chanyeol got up and leaned against the wall, not leaving until Sehun came out. He heard the door unlock and Sehun walked out, his parents leaving the college. Sehun glanced at Chanyeol.

"What was that about?" Chanyeol asked.

"You saw that?" Sehun questioned, his eyes widening.

"I heard you screaming so I decided to see what happened and I saw that," Chanyeol implied, "No wonder you're such an a** to everyone...."

"Shut up," Sehun snapped, "At least you have a good life." He glanced back at Chanyeol before running away from him, tears in his eyes.

As class was over, Kai and Chen went to the Cafeteria for lunch to buy their food. Sehun went his locker to grab his sweater. He put it on and zipped it up, hiding the scars and cuts he had. He saw Kai and Chen, smirking slightly. Sehun walked up to them and pushed Chen to the floor.

"Yah!" Kai shouted, "Why did you do that?"

"Because I wanted to," Sehun retorted and kneeled in front of Chen taking his glasses of his face and broke the arm. Sehun tossed them at him and walked away.

Kai was pissed and started to go after Sehun, but Chanyeol stopped him by grabbing his wrist and holding him back.

"What the hell Chanyeol!?" Kai shouted, "He just Broke Chen's glasses and now your siding with him! What the hell!?"

Kai pushed Chanyeol away from him, grabbing Chen's hand and stormed off. Chanyeol was starting to cry. Why would Kai think that!? Baekhyun came over to Chanyeol and hugged him the best he could.

"Thanks Baekhyun," Chanyeol muttered.

"Wanna go to the Café nearby?" Baekhyun asked a playful smile on his lips. Chanyeol was a little skeptical but then nodded. Maybe Baekhyun won't be like Sehun.

Chanyeol and Baekhyun head to the Café. He walked down the path that lead them there. Baekhyun looked up at Chanyeol, grabbing his hand and ran there. Chanyeol followed him, running with him.

The two went into the Café. Chanyeol saw Sehun there and gulped. Baekhyun looked up at him.

"Are you okay Channie?" Baekhyun asked cutely.

Chanyeol blushed a little at what Baekhyun had just called him. He looked down at Baekhyun who was looking at him like a lost puppy.

"Yeah I'm okay," Chanyeol replied. Sehun turned around to see Baekhyun with Chanyeol.

For some reason Sehun felt jealous of Baekhyun near Chanyeol. He didn't know why but it bothered him. He sighed and went to get himself some bubble tea. Baekhyun saw Sehun upset and pouted.

"You care about him?" Chanyeol asked bitterly.

"He looks upset," Baekhyun retorted.

"He's fine, c'mon," Chanyeol implied and pulled Baekhyun out of the Café. Baekhyun pouted and smiled at him.

Sehun walked out of the Café and went over to the two, walking with them.

"Why are you here?" Chanyeol asked.

"The head of the department told me that you're sharing a dorm with me now," Sehun explained, "Apparently it's so we can get along better."

"And who's Kai with then?" Chanyeol asked.

"Baekhyun," Sehun implied and ran away from the two.

--

Sehun ran to the ocean. He sat on a large rock, looking out at the massive body of water. He curled up, looking at the ocean.

What if I jump in? Will everything be okay? Will my parents be happy that I'll be gone?

Sehun started to cry. He backed away from the ledge a little so he didn't accidentally fall. He buried his head into his knees.

Nobody even cares about me! Gosh! Chanyeol and Kai don't even know what I'm going through! Chanyeol saw and acted like it was nothing! It be best if I left anyway!

Sehun stood up, standing by the edge. He inhaled and exhaled deeply and he jumped.

--

Chanyeol was walking by the beach. As he was walking by the water, he saw someone jump in. He was shocked, and dove into the water, swimming as fast as he could to the person. He pulled them away from the rocks and swam back to land, dragging them onto the sand. Chanyeol flipped them over noticing it was Sehun. He took off Sehun's shirt and jacket, starting to do CPR.

"SOMEBODY HELP ME!" Chanyeol screamed, "SOMEBODY GET HELP!"

He kept doing CPR as he noticed someone calling possibly 9-1-1 and ran over. Chanyeol let the guy do CPR as he watched nervously. The medics came and rushed over telling us to stand back. Chanyeol watched nervously as they put the AED pads on his chest.

"Clear!" One of the medics shouted and gave a shock. Chanyeol watched, tears in his eyes. This cannot be happening. He never knew that Sehun actually felt like this. Now Chanyeol felt bad!

He should be in detention right now, but he would not doing it. Not right now. Sehun's life is at risk right now and he can't just let that slip away! They started doing CPR again until they had to use the AED again.

"Clear!" One shouted again and gave Sehun a shock.

"We're going to take him to a hospital to drain the water out of his lungs," Another paramedic implied, "What's your name?" She looked at Chanyeol.

"I'm Chanyeol," He replied.

"You can come with us since you found him," She implied and Chanyeol followed her into the back of the ambulance as they took Sehun in. He was beside Sehun seeing him barely awake. He still can't breathe properly because of the water in his lungs. Chanyeol bit my lip as he was rushed into the hospital. If his parents or brother didn't come, he wouldn't have any respect for them. That'd mean they'd let their own son die. Hell, they'd kill Sehun if they wanted to!

Chanyeol waited in the waiting room, noticing a news crew exit the building. He gulped. It was gonna be on the news.

What if his family saw!? What if they put him in a mental institution!? No Chanyeol, don't think that!

He sat there, biting his nails a little. He looked at the TV. It was the news about him. Chanyeol decided to watch what they'd say.

Reporter: A young boy by the name of Oh Sehun was found in the water near Cedarwood College. Paramedics say he'll be okay. The family doctor has diagnosed the boy with depression, Bipolar disorder, and Scitzophrenia. We will update more about this news story later.

Chanyeol stopped paying attention and sighed. No wonder Sehun wasn't in class much. He got up and left the hospital. He walked around town, dragging his feet across the pavement towards the college. He walked inside the dorm building and decided to put Sehun's stuff in his room he used to share with Baekhyun. He set it up the way it was before and sat on his bed looking on the other side. He looked at the empty bed on the other side of the room. Chanyeol went to the dorm bathroom, staring at the mirror. He started crying, his head hurting.

"Why didn't I realize this before?" He sobbed, "WHY DIDN'T I!?"

Chanyeol screamed in frustration and punched the mirror, hearing it shatter. He slid down the wall and buried his head into his knees crying.

--

Kai ran into the dorm room, hearing Chanyeol scream and ran to the bathroom. He saw him crying on the floor, glass in his hand. Kai covered his mouth in shock and grabbed the medical kit, helping Chanyeol as he pulled the glass out of his hand. Chanyeol screamed in pain as 5 pieces of glass were taken out of his hand.

Kai wrapped up Chanyeol's hand and wrist with gauze after he stopped the bleeding, helping Chanyeol out of the bathroom. Chanyeol sat on his bed, sobbing.

"Why didn't I ask him about it before?" Chanyeol muttered through sobs. As Kai was cleaning the glass he decided to ask Chanyeol what happened.

"Yah, what happened?" Kai asked, "Why does it all of a sudden seem like you're now siding with the enemy?"

"SEHUN ISN'T THE ENEMY KAI!" Chanyeol screamed, "MAYBE WE NEVER KNEW THIS, NOW I DO! HIS PARENTS F*CKING ABUSE HIM!"

Kai was taken back by Chanyeol suddenly screaming at him and put the glass in the garage. Looks like they had to pay for a new mirror....

"You're kidding me right?" Kai asked a bit irritated.

"YOU DONT EVEN CARE DO YOU!? DID YOU NOT SEE THE DAMN NEWS!?" Chanyeol screamed at the top of his lungs sobbing, "HE TRIED TO KILL HIMSELF!"

"He's hurt other people too," Kai retorted, "Why are you so blind!? HE DOES IT FOR ATTENTION CHANYEOL!"

"He's been diagnosed with Depression, Bipolar, and scitzophrenia," Chanyeol muttered, "He's a broken boy."

Kai went over to Chanyeol and hugged him, crying silently into his shoulder feeling bad for what he said. He nodded at Chanyeol and left the room. Chanyeol cried into his pillow and soon fell asleep.

--

The next morning he woke up to see a box and a note on his side table. He slowly got up and got into the shower. After he finished, he got dressed, brushed his teeth, and did his hair and face.

Chanyeol exits the bathroom, grabbing the box and note, sitting  cross legged on his bed. He opened the box to see a new phone and another small note. Geez, how many notes did this person write!? He wrote the note that the phone was with first.

찬,

내 아버지가 네 휴대 전화를 분쇄 한 것을 유감이다. 나는 그것을 대체 할만큼 충분히 멋질 것이라고 생각했다.

진정으로,

세 훈

(Chan,

I am sorry that my father crushed your cell phone. I thought it would be nice enough to replace it.

Truly,

Sehun)

Chanyeol then turned the phone on, seeing the wallpaper was a picture of the ocean with two words.

Forever Young

Chanyeol smiled a little before reading the next note from Sehun. And it was a long one.

친애하는 여리,

내가 한 일을했을 때 내가 걱정했다면 미안해. 자살하려고해서 죄송합니다. 어떤 이유로 나는 백현 근처에있는 당신을 질투합니다.

ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

나는 너와 카이를 아프게해서 유감이다. 나는 정말로있다. 어쩌면 내가 친구보다 더 당신을 좋아하기 때문일 수도 있습니다. 나는 너 주위에 매달려있는 카이를 질투한다. 그거 받아 줄래? 내가 너에게 호감이가는 것을 받아 들일 것인가?

어쨌든, 지금은 괜찮다고 말씀 드리고 싶습니다. 나는 정신병에 처방 된 약을 먹었습니다. 나는 네가 잘하고 있기를 바란다. 너 때문에 나를 해치려 고하지 않았 으면 좋겠어. 나는 공간 낭비 일 뿐이지, 그렇지?

ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

네가 진정으로,

오 세훈

(Dear Yeolie,

I'm sorry if I was worried when I did what I did. Sorry to commit suicide. For some reason I am jealous of you near Baek Hyun. Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

I am sorry to hurt you and Kai. I really am. Maybe it's because I like you more than a friend. I am jealous of Kai hanging around you. Could you take that? Will I accept the appeal to you?

Anyway, I want to say that it is ok now. I ate medicine prescribed for mental illness. I hope you are doing well. I do not want you to hurt yourself because of me. I'm just a waste of space, are not I?

Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

Yours truly,

Oh Sehun)

Chanyeol smiled putting the box and notes in his dawer of his side table. He grabbed a pencil and paper, grabbing his headphones, putting them in his ears. He went to his music storage which was full of his favourite artists. He started listening to his playlist that gave him inspiration. And that's when Chanyeol started to write a note / letter back to Sehun.

세 훈,

나는 당신이 공간 낭비가 아니라는 사실 외에 무엇을 말할 지 모른다. 사실 우리가 고등학교 때 넌 꽤 우스꽝 스럽다고 생각 했어. 나는 네가 어떻게 행동했는지 아무 말도하지 않은 것 같아.

사과 드리겠습니다. 그리고 당신은 카이와 백현 주위에있는 나를 질투합니다!? 그거 귀여워! 나는 너를 좋아하는 것에 대해 무엇을 말할 지 모른다.

나는 너를 좋아했기 때문에 그 무례한 말을했다. 죄송 해요. 나는 정말로있다. 나중에 보자.

많은 사랑,

박 찬열

(Sehun,

I do not know what to say other than the fact that you are not a waste of space. Actually, I thought you were pretty ridiculous when we were in high school. I do not think I've said anything about how you acted.

I apologize. And you are jealous of me around Kai and Baek Hyun !? That's cute! I do not know what to say about liking you.

I liked you so I spoke rudely. I'm sorry. I really am. See you later.

Many love,

Park Chan-yul)

Chanyeol grabbed the letter and put it on Sehun's desk, putting his new phone into his pocket after turning the music off. He put his pencil and eraser away, putting his shoes on. He walked out of the dorm, walking outside towards the college garden. As he walked towards the entrance he saw someone standing there, and it made his heart start to race. There he was standing there, looking up and sincerely smiling at Chanyeol for the first time ever.

This was the first boy I had a crush on. His name? Oh Sehun.
