"Whoa... I can't believe college is actually over, and Jungkook just... disappeared," the shorter guy said quietly.
"I know," I murmured back, my voice thinner than I meant.
Was I too harsh on him?
My gaze slipped to Mina, her head bowed as she carefully packed her bag. Eunha had already gone.
Should I go over? Should I apologize?
"Ara? You coming?" Tae's voice pulled me out of the fog in my head.
"You guys go ahead," I said, forcing a small smile before stepping toward Mina.
I had to fix this.
"See you tomorrow then," Tae and Jimin called as they left.
"Mina?" I tried, soft enough that it almost got lost in the quiet room. She didn't look at me.
"Listen... I'm sorry. I really am. I just don't understand. You told me I could sleep with him. I know this isn't the right time, but I don't know how to circle around things, but-"
"It's okay, Ara." Mina's voice cracked, barely above a whisper. "It's not your fault. You're beautiful, sexy, skilled... I'm not."
She's not angry. She's hurting.
She's doubting herself over a fuckboy.
No- she's doubting herself because I couldn't keep it in my pants.
"No, that's not-"
"I just need some time, Ara. Please... don't crowd me."
And then she walked away, shoulders slumping like the weight of it all was too much.
I stood there, useless.
Why can't I ever get it right?

"Jungkook was with you, wasn't he?"
That came out of nowhere.
"Wha-"
"He left his own birthday party early to see you, didn't he?"
