TW: mention of rape

Sana took a several deep breath as she stared at the room number in front of her before she knocked on the door.

She waited for someone to answer but minute passed and still, there's no response.

She raised her hand and was about to knock again when someone called her.

"Sana?"

She turned her head and saw Jeongyeon heading her way.

Sana sighed. "I kept knocking but no one's answering. Where's Momo?"

"She's at the hospital." Jeongyeon answered and took out her keys to open the door. "Why? You here to convince her to tell you her secret?"

Sana chewed her lips. "Something like that."

"You know, I keep wondering why you worry so much about it. I think it's because she was your bestfriend." Jeongyeon stopped what she's doing and threw a glance at Sana. "You still care for her." she smirked as she heard the door clicked.

"I just wanna help."

"Yeah, whatever." Jeongyeon turned the knob and opened the door. "Momo will be here in a few minites though. You can wait here if you want."

Sana nodded. "Thank you." she was about to enter when she heard a voice.

"Who's that?"

"Sana." Jeongyeon answered.

And when Sana finally entered the room, her eyes widen when she saw Nayeon sitting on one of the beds.

Nayeon grinned cheekily. "So I finally meet the princess."

Sana frowned at the nickname. "It's nice to see you again, Nayeon."

Nayeon's brows furrowed and leaned closer. She paused for a moment, as if she's trying to figure something out.

Jeongyeon sighed and was about to raise her hand when Nayeon finally spoke.

"Oh, right!" Nayeon exclaimed. She leaned back then her expression changed. Her smile dropped and raised a brow at Sana. "Is it, though? After what we've done to you?— What I've done to you."

And just like that, the familiar fear enveloped her again. But she shook it off. It's done. It's all in the past now.

"I got over it." she croaked. "I don't wanna dwell on the past. I already forgave you all."

Nayeon furrowed her brows again and made an expression she did earlier.

Sana couldn't help but knit her brows at her.

"I'm sorry. Could you repeat what you said again? This time, slowly? I couldn't quiet catch that. I'm still bad at lip reading, you know."

Sana's mouth slowly open as her eyes went wide when she realized something. She turned to Jeongyeon. "Is she...?"

"Deaf?" Nayeon chuckled. "Yep."

Sana gasped. "Oh my god. Nayeon, I'm sor—"

"Don't."

Sana gulped. "But, how? My friends never told me about your condition."

Nayeon rolled her eyes. "What part of 'I'm still bad at lip reading' you don't understand?" she then turned to Jeongyeon. "Please translate what the bitch is saying to me."

Jeongyeon raised her hands and did a sign language for her.

"Oh!" Nayen turned back to face Sana. "It's because they didn't know about my condition."
