Chapter 33

-|FLASHBACK: Daniel's P.o.V.

I continued to brush her hair using my fingers so she will fall asleep eventually.

I know that her eyes are closed, but I know that she's not sleeping yet.

I just know.

But she's going to fall asleep, soon.

And I am gonna be asleep, too.

But to be honest, no. I don't think I can fall asleep after when Stacy said earlier.

Especially when she mentioned her name.

Jihyo's name.

God, forgive me. I know that I'm with Stacy right now, that I'm beside her, hugging her, brushing her hair for her to fall asleep but...

I can't help but to miss Jihyo.

I really do!

I want to find her and hug her and just tell sorry and tell her my feelings and...

Ugh.

It's all useless. She's not even responfing to my texts, of my calls. I know she already read them, but she's choosing not to reply.

I know I messed up. Real bad.

But don't I deserve antoher chance?

I mean, she doesn't know that Stacy is sick... and she's dying right?

If I just tell her that, explain everything.. Maybe she'll understand me.

I know she will. She will because she's very forgiving.

No.. she won't. She's too hurt.

I really-

"Daniel?" Stacy suddenly called me.

"Hm?" I answered. She sounds weak..

"I'm gonna fall asleep in a few seconds and I want you to know that.." she didn't continue it.

"That?" I asked.

"I called you here because.. I saw her." I suddenly became nervous.

"Saw who?"

"Her... Ji.. Jihyo. I- I saw her earlier at the beach... with her friends.. You should go-" I cut her off. She saw her? What?

"No. I'm staying. You didn't see her, okay? Let's just sleep,"

I was expecting a response from her but she didn't.

SHIT.

I immediately held her and check her if she's breathing.

"O-ouch.. I just want to sleep. I thought you want to sleep?" Stacy said with her eyes closed.

FUCK!

Thank goodness! I thought she was.. You know. Dead?

"I- I know.. I'm sorry. Let's sleep," I said and lay down beside her.

She really had me nervous there. Seriously.

I love Stacy.

I do. I really do. But not romantically anymore..
