MY DAHLIA [MIYEONxMINNIE]

CHAPTER | 21

The dinner with her parents went well, her Mom and Dad just ask her about work, and other stuff like asking her to visit them regularly because they are getting old, and they want to see her more often.

It's already late at night but Miyeon decided to go outside and ask someone's company, now she's sitting at the bench waiting at the basketball court.

It's cold but it feels warm inside
she took a breath and heaved out a sigh and sip the smoke from the cigarette butt.

Miyeon blew the smoke in the air,
and watch how the smoke flew and lost to her eyes.

she feels someone is approaching, she averted her look and saw the person she's waiting for, then sat beside her and took her cigar and sip.

"You're smoking? Does something happen Miyeonah? I thought you already stop?"

the man put out the light of the cigarette and throw the butt in the trash.

she learn to smoke years ago for her stress to relive, but she stopped it a few years later, but coming here triggers her to take one stick just to calm her nerves.

"You look devastated"

Miyeon's hands on both sides hold the edge of the bench putting her weight there, she stretches her feet forward and looks up to the night skies.

"Yeah, kinda? anyway thanks for coming Hoon"

"No Worries, anytime"

Yes, it's Jihoon, she's been close to him all these years even when she walks away to this place, He is there when she needed someone to cry on, her drinking buddy. Even she is in Seoul they manage to remain their communication and their friendship.

Miyeon can't believe it also how she became close to Jihoon, but 5yrs ago Jihoon is the one who saw her in her bad state, but they became close when their path came a crossed again 4yrs ago to her previous work.

"You remember someone, don't you?"

Jihoon knows Miyeon and he is not asking but He is just confirming it.

"Yeah, this afternoon when I came here"

Miyeon answered.

"Sorry to hear that, but you still have communication with them right?"

He asked

"yeah~~"

"but do they know where you are?"

"no~~"
Miyeon lowered her head and answered in a very low tone

After she left Incheon, she stops seeing her friends, and she rarely talks to them.

"you missed them?"

Miyeon didn't respond, and a memory flashed back on her.

[Flashed Back]

"Miyeonah"
Her Mom on the phone,

"Your friends are here, looking for you it's been months, I think You should talk to them"

Miyeon is laying on her bed with a blanket talking to her mom over the phone, She's staying in an apartment near Seoul,

"Mom, just tell them that I'm ok and don't look for me"

"Miyeonah~~ again, You should talk to them, they are coming back here again and again, don't do this, they are your friends and they are worried for you"

Miyeon cried in silence, tears are flowing and she can't stop it, she is starting to breathe heavily having a hard time to breath because she's stoping her snob to be heard, she swallows the big lump on her throat and answered
