2.

I was finally able to pick myself up after crying for an hour. I stood up and sat there still on the same bench where she was sitting next to me. Oh how much I'm missing her right now. Her voice, her presence itself, her touches.

The only time I could've been able to feel all those one last time... is when she broke up with me moments ago.

I tear suddenly escaped from my right eye. Trying to wipe it off, more started to form and going down. I began crying again by thinking of Minah. Wish I could just forget about these thoughts but how could I when she was the only girl I loved the most. The girl that made me experience feelings that no other girl could ever make me feel.

I ruffled my hair, taking a couple of breaths to calm myself down, I looked down swinging my legs, that's until I saw someone appear right in front of me. I slowly looked up to see a girl looking down at me. A small body looking like she reaches all the way to my chest, long silver hair, a strand covering her eyes, pale skin, black clothing.

"Hey.. are you okay?" She said asking me, looking at me with worried eyes. Of course in my state, she probably saw how much of a crying mess I was. My puffy eyes, red face, and messy hair, how could she not ask.

"Mh.. yeah, I'm okay," I said trying to look in any other direction other than her eyes.

"Tsk.. now you can't lie to me. I already took a look at your face, you've been crying lately." The girl takes a seat next to me on the bench. "Do you perhaps want to talk about it? I'm here to listen- sorry but what's your name?" She says.

"Hyunjin- my name is Hwang Hyunjin," I said to her finally looking at her face again. Not knowing why I gave my name to a stranger. "Well, Hyunjin... I'm here to listen to anything you have to say. C'mon talk to me." A smile appearing on her face.

Playing with my fingers looking down at them. I started talking, "My girlfriend of a year br- broke up with me. She lost feelings along the way of our relationship. I couldn't understand why she did, knowing I probably did something wrong." Having trouble speaking, wanting to forget that moment ever happened. I just had to tell someone this. It was killing me keeping this on the inside.

She didn't speak for a moment. I could already feel that she was looking at me with sorry eyes.

"Hey, she said there was a reason behind it. Stop blaming yourself for something you can't control. Nothing is your fault. If it makes you feel better, let's get out of this place. The atmosphere feels so down. Let's have a fun night tonight." She stood up, placing her hand out in front of me, hoping that I'll take her hand.

"I'm sorry, but I don't think I can," I said standing up, I bowed down to her and started walking away towards the right direction, when she then pulls on my left hand making my eyes go wide to her surprise.

"I'm not taking no for an answer. It'll be fun, I promise you that. I'll make you forget that heartbreaking moment

in just one night."

"C'mon, let's go!" Shooting me a smile, she ran, I ran behind her, while running, I looked down at our hands and noticed...

They are still intertwining with one another.
