[jungwon pov]

I walk walking at a safe distance between them. My heart was aching.

Why did she lie to me?

I tried not to be suspicious and luckily I had a hoodie and mask so I could cover my face.

[a/n: social distancing ya'll]

It was already the past 10 minutes and I'm still wondering why she lied

Maybe she didn't want to hurt my feelings?

Why didn't she tell me earlier rather than lying?

I sighed and continued to follow them.

I was almost reaching to Jake's place so I called him and asked how long he'll be here.

Luckily he would come in 5 minutes.

I sighed and waited near his house.

Yeonjun passed me but never bothered to show any signs of suspicion towards me.

yeon-a why would you?

♦ ♦ ♦

"Goodnight baby." Yeonjun pecked Yeon-a's cheek and hugged her.

"Are you walking home?" she scanned his eyes

"Yeah. But I don't mind."

"You sure?" he gave Yeon-a a reassuring smile before waving goodbye to her.

She sighed and unlocked the front door.

There was silence.

"They haven't come back yet? Weird" Yeon-a went into her room and laid on her bed

She groaned and sat up realising that she was still wearing Yeonjun's jacket.

"How do I give this to him?" she took a deep breath and rubbed her temples.

"Life is hard" Yeon-a was irritated for nothing.

Why am I so stressed out?

Is it because I lied to him?

I should apologise.

no. I shouldn't

But he might think bad of me even more.

"Yeon-a! I'm home!" she heard her brother's voice from downstairs Damn he's loud.

She opened the door and went downstairs to see both Jake and Jungwon.

Jungwon?

"I thought you'd come later than I expected."

"It was cold. So I wanted to go home."

Lies. Jungwon thought

"Where were you anyway?"

"I was out. With Areum."

Jungwon felt mentally unstable. He couldn't bear hearing Yeon-a lie in front of his face.

Why did I even follow them in the first place?

"Jungwon's going to stay here for one more night. Hope you don't mind." Jake winked at Yeon-a which made her grimace.

great.

"why'd you wink?"

"oh. Sorry, I realised you had a boyfriend. whoops"

Jungwon's heart was pounding.
