Y/n's pov
Seconds to minutes, minutes to hours, hours to days and days to weeks. Time flies fast. And it seems like Zhang ji's attitude towards me have gotten worse.

Flashback~(Y/n's pov)
"Hey" I greeted my best friend. Zhang ji hummed as a response. "I was wondering if we could hang out today. It's been a while" I ask doubtful but hopeful at the same time. My hopes were crushed seconds later when he said, "Sorry I have plans with Dao Ming today"

"Can't you just delay it?" I asked once again hopeful. "Gosh Y/N would you stop being clingy, Dao Ming asked first so it's only fair" Zhang ji says in an irritated tone. "You never had time for me! These past few months you've just been with Dao Ming! Dao Ming this! Dao Ming that! What is wrong with you?! Am I even still recognized as your best friend?!" I asked in a harsher tone as hot tears spilled from my eyes.

"Leave me alone would you?! All you do is nag me all day and honestly it's starting to get annoying!" Zhang ji spats back. "What? So now I'm annoying? You're seriously gonna replace me with a girl who you met months ago?" Pain is evident in my voice. "You know what maybe you're right. I should just replace you with Dao Ming. She's more fun and lovable anyways. She's also very understanding unlike you! I would not want her as a best friend though. I would want her as a girlfriend. Cause I love her!" Zhang ji emphasized all the words he said. That was enough to tell me that I had no chance anymore.

I let out a whimper not wanting to hear more of the things coming out of his mouth. "You know what I'm done with you. I'm gonna move in with Dao Ming tomorrow and I don't want anything with you anymore. Let's just pretend we never were best friends, we never knew each other and that we are just random strangers who are classmates." With that said, he left the dorm.
Flashback end~

After that argument with Zhang ji, he has been avoiding me. I didn't mind though, I was avoiding him too. Zuo and Dao Ming also noticed the tension between us but the only difference was that Zuo was worried for me and Dao Ming was somewhat glad. Zuo later found out that Zhang ji also moved out of my dorm to Dao Ming's dorm. He insisted that he moved in with me but I politely declined telling him I needed some alone time and space. I wouldn't eat often like I would used to. Zuo tried many ways to cheer me up and I appreciated it but it didn't really help.

I decided that I should go out because I've been sitting in that dorm doing nothing but blankly staring at the wall. I wore my hoodie and sweatpants and prepared to go out. I took out my earphones from my hoodie pocket and placed it in my ear. I took a stroll around the neighborhood while listening to music. Music was one of my favorite things, it never fails to cheer me up but this time was different.

I was walking and walking until something or should I say someone stopped me from doing so. I saw Dao Ming smiling joyfully sitting on one of the park's bench. She was staring lovingly at something. Me being nosy I also looked at the direction she was looking. There he was. Zhang ji buying an ice cream cone.

He came jogging towards Dao Ming not even noticing me. They were smiling and laughing with each other. They shared the ice cream cone like a couple, I think they already are. My main focus was on Zhang ji. His smile was genuine like the times when we were inseparable. A tear slowly slid down my cheek as I watched them having the time of their lives, enjoying each other's companies.

I pulled my hoodie further down so it covered my face more. I turned back around and slowly but peacefully head back to the dorms in light steps.
