Rebirth Of A K Pop Idol Bl - Chapter 1

As I watched the headlights of the oncoming vehicle sped towards me, I couldn’t help but reflect on how it came to this.

My death… I understood quite clearly what brought it on. It was that bitch, she finally got what she wanted, my demise at her hand.

She was always jealous of my relationship with him, even though the relationship it was, were that of friends. I guess our closeness got to her especially after the incident.

*****

When I was younger I grew up in an orphanage, and the only one I could rely on was Kwak Dong Ho. We met during my first month in that place. I was getting bullied by some older kids and Dong Ho made them stop.

After that we were inseparable, we became the best of friends. We even had similar dreams, Dong Ho’s wanting to be the greatest actor in the world, while I wanted to be the most famous idol in Asia.

I almost succeeded in my dream, before the incident the name Kim Yeung Min was known all throughout Asia. People couldn’t leave the house without seeing my face plastered on something. Not to brag or anything, but my skills were highly renowned, it was like nothing could stop me.

But something did, a gunshot to the back from an anti-fan. The bullet damaged my legs, and because a nurse gave me the wrong medicine during the surgery, my vocal chords were affected too.

Without the use of my legs or voice, I felt like I was useless, my star that shone so bright was now just a flicker.

As I lay in that hospital bed wondering if I should just end it all, Dong Ho came to visit me. He had just finished wrapping up the last scene of his latest movie when he heard the news.

When he came into my hospital room he didn’t say a word, he just went over and gave me a hug. I didn’t know how long we hugged for, all I could remember was crying a lot before falling asleep.

The next time I woke up, it was night and Dong Ho was staring at me with an indescribable expression on his face. He told me that I would be moving in with him, that he would take care of me. He didn’t ask my opinion, this was something he already decided upon.

I asked about his girlfriend since I knew that she didn’t really care for me that much. Dong Ho assured me that it would be alright. If I only knew ahead of time of what fate had in store for me, I would have suggested living on my own.

*******

In the beginning, my stay with Dong Ho was fine. Dong Ho would hang out with me, we would play games and anything else that he thought would make me happy.

Dong Ho’s girlfriend mostly stayed out of sight, and if she did come into contact with me she would just ignore me. Sometimes I heard Dong Ho and her arguing, but before they got really into it they would head to their room and shut the door.

I had a feeling that the fights were about me, but any time I tried to bring it up Dong Ho would just change the topic.

One day while they were in the middle of watching one of Dong Ho’s movies, I suggested that maybe it be better if I moved out.

This was strongly rejected by Dong Ho, fearing that I wasn’t comfortable living with him, Dong Ho started spending more time with me.

During one of these times, me and Dong Ho was binge-watching a drama. I don’t know what happened if I had to guess I would say the drama bored me so much that I fell asleep because the next moment I was waking up on Dong Ho’s lap to a woman’s yell.

*****

After that, things between the two of them went downhill and I was caught in the middle of it all. One time during an especially bad fight, she started packing her things. She kept saying that Dong Ho was having an affair with me.

Dong Ho got angry at her assumption in stating that he is not or ever be a homosexual. He asked her where in the world she came up with that idea. To which she explains that it’s because of the way he acts around me. He tells her that he only likes women, that he finds it repulsive even thinking of a man in that way.

I was hurt by that but it was something I already knew. No matter how much I liked him, he would only ever see me as a friend. They talked a little more and he somehow coaxed her into staying.

*****

For a couple of weeks after the fight, everything was going alright. Dong Ho’s girlfriend wasn’t staring daggers at me all the time and there weren’t any arguments. If I only knew what I was in store for…

One day Dong Ho told me that he would be staring in a new film and that he will have to go on location for it. He informs me that his girlfriend would be looking after me for him.

I had a bad feeling about it, but I couldn’t tell him that, so I just agreed and wished him luck on his new movie.

Dong Ho wasn’t even gone a week when things started to become weird. His girlfriend would bring me food three times a day, but I would feel sick after eating it. I was getting weaker and weaker by the day.

I tried to get her to call the hospital, but she kept saying I was fine, that it was just a cold. That’s when I realized something was going on.

When she went shopping, I called one of my old friends from my entertainment days to come to pick me up. They brought me to the hospital and I found out I was being poisoned.

It turned out that Dong Ho’s girlfriend was putting Cremini mushrooms in my food, but since it could be seen as an accident there wasn’t a reason to report her to the police. I decided to just stay away from her and Dong Ho and live on my own. All I needed was a live-in nurse, I would be fine.

*******

Months past, I found a nice apartment and a good live-in nurse. Since I could still use my hands I decided to compose music to make a decent living. Everything was going well until one Dong Ho knocked on my door.

He started asking me why I left so abruptly, going on about how his girlfriend was upset that I just disappeared without a trace one day.

So I told him everything, I didn’t hold back a thing. I told him that his girlfriend is an evil bitch that tried to kill me. I was ready to show him proof.

His face took on a disgusted look as I kept talking. When I was finished speaking, he said to me, how he didn’t want to believe it at first but she was right.

I was so confused and it must have shown on my face because he continued. He told me how when he left, I was criticizing his girlfriend about every little thing. How I was telling her that they wouldn’t last long and he will be all mine. That I have everything set up to achieve that outcome.

I was flabbergasted, was he brainwashed or just that stupid. If I had a masterplan why would I tell her?

I felt hurt, we have known each other since they were small, we were like brothers. I couldn’t understand how he could believe that bitch over me.

I didn’t want to fight since he didn’t believe me then he could just leave and I told him so. He wouldn’t go, he wanted me to apologize to that bitch.

That he even suggested such a thing left me speechless, so I decided if he wouldn’t leave then I would.

I wheeled myself out of the apartment in anger, I had no destination in mind I just wanted to not be near him.

Before he could catch up to me I caught the last elevator, it gave me immense pleasure to watch the doors close right in his face. I left the apartment building and wheeled myself down the street.

It was late at night so the streets were empty, which gave me a lot of space to navigate. I saw that coffee shop that was across the street was still open so I decided to go there and wait til Dong Ho left.

As I went to cross the street, suddenly I felt a pair of hands push me from behind. I turned my head and the last thing I saw was that bitch wearing a smug smile on her face.

A car hit me and I was dead all because of some two face bitch.

******

“Min…”

I could hear someone…

“Mink…”

Who are they calling?

“Minki!!”

I awoke with a major headache, unable to move my body. Everything was fuzzy, but I could definitely tell that this wasn’t a hospital room.

“Minki, get your ass up, you going to be late for school.”

All I could think was what the fuck is going on.
