1st POV: Mayuko's
I was casted away on a shore and left vulnerable with the ugly truth. There were no secret passages to run out of to escape this fear. It was best to be confronted by it and to accept it. This was the only way I could be a true warrior and become that strong person I wanted to be.
Seohyun's face was highlighted with anger and I was struck by her words. It wasn't about their love story, but the fact that she said their love wasn't in harmony. Kai didn't love her?
I had said that to Kai, but I didn't actually believe he truly didn't love her. It was just that he was still being cold.
My knees felt like that were burning from landing on the floor roughly and my eyes were looking at this woman crying out for an apology. Once more, this was another problem from Kai. I had enough.
The sudden fear I had in me was washed away as I tried to stand up, but she pushed me back down, threatening to hurt me.
"Why should I apologize?" I stated and moved her hands off my roughly. I wasn't going to be a slave and be pushed around anymore. I wouldn't allow it.
With a silent mewl, I stood up and rubbed my reddened knees. She stepped backwards and looked at me with shaky eyes.
Was she insane?
"Do you really not know?" She asked with a Cheshire smile forming on her lips.
I never heard of you till Sehun brought it to me, but I still don't get why I should feel sorry. What did I do wrong against her?
"You replaced me. When I look at him…When I hug him…When I kiss him…Even when he slipped this wedding ring on my finger, he wasn't thinking of me. I didn't know who it was till just today. That child revealed everything…It’s…It's not fair."
The person, who I was deep inside, felt hurt and sorrowful. Kai hated me, loved me and once again he hates me. It wasn't just making sense for this part. I shook my head and looked at her doubtful.
"Kai hates me."
"Do you really believe that?" She asked.
I remained silent as I looked away thinking from last night and the past. He told me himself. Once he hates me, he will hate me forever. But, Mayuko think of the past. He hated you and then loved you. But, you were a toy.
What made him sway?
Something was missing…A big piece was missing.
"You’re just as stupid as you look," She breathed low on her breath and turned to walk to her window with her arms crossed.
"Get out of my sight. Take those folders and books over there. Study yourself just like I did...just leave Kai alone. Let us all be happy."
