I woke up and stretched out my arms, I remembered crying on the floor last night,

While thinking about him, I got up and headed to the washroom and got ready for the library today,

After getting all dressed up, I looked at myself and noticed the changes in my body, I got skinnier than before, my skin looked paler,

Wondering what is wrong with my body, I made my way to the kitchen and made a cup of coffee and toast for myself,

Finishing it up, I headed out to the library, getting there, I didn't see Joon, thinking he'll come later, I started doing my work,

As I finished placing all the books in their places, I turned to look at the door, there was no cold breeze this time, indicating me about him,

Thinking he would be busy, I looked at the shelf In front of me, lost in my own train of thought,

After finishing all the work, I left the place and while walking, I thought of sending him a text when I looked to my right and saw a playground,

My eyes went to a bench there and I sat down, feeling the cold breeze again, I felt alive, looking to my right at the empty side beside me, I saw him coming and smiled as he sat there, he looked at me who was looking back at him,

"I thought you were busy",
I said as I held his arm with mine and rested my head on his shoulder,

"Sorry",
He said, looking down, a concerned look on his face,

"You don't have to apologize",
I said and looked at him, then we kissed, when he parted us and looked at me,

"Gianna, listen- I- I want to tell you something which I've been holding in my heart for some days now and it's breaking me apart,
He said cupping my face in his hands,

There wasn't anyone, which made a calming silence near us but when he said that, it became a deadly one.

"You're scaring me Joon",
I said looking at him, hoping for him to ease the situation but he didn't, he looked concerned,

Sigh
"I don't know how to tell you this, I've been hiding it for some days, afraid of how you'll react but I'll have to tell you",
He said and I felt my heart skip a beat, what does he mean by that,

"Joon, say it clearly, what do you mean, do you not love me anymore, whatever it is just tell me! ",
I said, my eyes filled with tears, afraid of his answer,

"I love you so much and this is why I'm so afraid, I- ",
Sighing, he looked down, breaking eye contact, and said, what was torturing him all this time...

"Remember when I told you I had a meeting, I- I'll have to leave for a mission, I'm so sorry I couldn't tell you this earlier, I really didn't have the courage to".
He said while I looked at him, unsure of what to say, I stayed silent.

We sat there, holding hands while I rested my head on his shoulder, we were afraid,

He drove me to my house, stopping the car, he waited for me to get off but I held his hand and kissed him,

While the soft kiss soon turned into a hot one, we both couldn't get enough of each other and kept kissing until we were out of breath,

We both parted and looked at each other, my tears were again threatening to drop but he stopped them by kissing my forehead,

He didn't want me to cry and attached our foreheads to each other,
"I love you so much Joon".
I said and he replied,

"I love you too Gianna".
We parted and looked at each other, unable to say anything anymore, I got off the car and went into the house, closing the door behind me,

While he looked at me, looking down, sighing silently, he drove back to the base,

While I lay in the bathtub, my mind was so foggy by his love that I wondered how I would spend time without him,

I've no one, he's the only one that makes me feel alive, he's the only one...

I never thought destiny would part us like this...
