Without You [SaiDa | Ficlet]

viii

Dahyun suddenly pulled away from the girl as she looked down. Regretting.

What have I done...

“What's wrong, Dahyun?” Sasha asked, cupping Dahyun's cheeks.

Dahyun shook her head, biting her lip. She looked at the girl in front of her. Pointed nose, brown hair, pretty... but not brown mesmerizing eyes. Not pink soft-looking lips.

Not her.

“I'm sorry... You're... still not her. You are similar, but still not her.” Dahyun flashed a final smile before leaving the girl alone.

She heard her calling but she kept walking away.

“You fucking used me, Dahyun! I am not her, but I can be better!” Sasha continues shouting, in which Dahyun ignores.

No one's better than her... No one can be better than her... No one ever will.

“You'll eventually come back to me! Mark my word, Dahyun!” Sasha shouted, but all Dahyun could think about is her.

No one else.

This is so wrong... What am I doing? Why do I miss you so bad? Why can't I just be contented to have you as a friend?

Dahyun clenched her fist and hurriedly left the area. She can't take this anymore. She knows it hurts when she got rejected a year ago, but why?

She knows she has to let her go, but why?

She knows she's only a friend, but why?

She knows she befriended her to still have closure even if it hurts, but why?

Why?

Why do I still like you?

Why do I still... love you?

Why do I still yearn for your painful love? You're so painful to love... Sana.
