I ruined everything


Sae-Byeok's P.O.V

꧁꧂꧁꧂꧁꧂


  "I don't- I don't see you as a friend." Jiyeong suddenly said, creating a wave of shock inside me. All she has ever told me is that I was her best friend. Why has her opinion on me suddenly changed?

  "What do you mean?" I ask, trying to hide the disappointment in my voice. Right now, is a bad time to be disappointed.

  "Well, I mean..." She seemed to have a hard time finding her words, which is a new one because she can always come up with something to say.

  "What!?" I insist, starting to get very frustrated.

  "I see you as... more than my best friend, you- you know. It's weird!" Jiyeong stuttered out while trying her hardest not to make eye contact with me. My eyes widened with shock after hearing what she had said.

  I shakily exhaled and looked down at the tile below me. How could I let this happen? I should have tried harder to push her away from me, but instead I encouraged our 'friendship'. Now one of us is going to die, and the other will be left broken. Without saying anything, I turned back around to my clothes and continued to put them on.

  "Say something, please." Jiyeong begged, but I could not find anything to say to her. 

  "What? What do you want me to say to you?" I slammed my hands down onto the sink. Now why am I mad? Do I even have the right to be mad? Jiyeong should be the one that is angry with me, but never once has she showed it. 

  "Sorry... just pretend I didn't say anything." Jiyeong mumbled solemnly. 

  Well now I feel bad. Shit, what do I say now? 

  Still gripping my hands onto the sink, I started into the void to think for a while. I could tell her I feel the same, or I could go with my original plan which is to block her out of my life completely. 

  But I do not want to anymore.

Jiyeong's P.O.V
꧁꧂꧁꧂꧁꧂

  Sae-Byeok mumbled something under her breath, but I did not dare to look at her. She hates me now, right? I ruined everything as always. 

  But I am very curious as to what she mumbled. 

  "W-What?" I spoke lightly. We slowly made eye contact, but Sae-Byeok quickly looked down once again.

  A couple more seconds of awkward silence went on until she repeated herself. 

  "Maybe I feel the same."
