The room was quiet, Heeseung was expecting that. The cruel and harsh curse that was just thrown at him. He could see how hard she's trying not to break down in front of him, blinking every now and then. Turning around with his hands on his hips, he stated. " Say it again "

" What? " Dan Bi stuttered breathlessly, in disbelief. She met Heeseung's eyes again although this time a tear fell and slowly trailed down his cheeks making her face soften.

" Curse at me. " He firmly stated before he walk towards her and took her hand which startled her, placing it on his chest. " Punch me, slap me, anything, D. I deserve that, take your anger out on me— "

" No " She scoff pushing him away but Heeseung held her hand tighter. Shaking her head continuously, refusing to hurt him in any way " No. I'm not doing that– "

" Why? "

" Because! " She exclaimed out of frustration

" Because what Dan Bi— "

" Because it's you!  " She exclaimed her chest heaving up and down, heavier. And another silence fell over between the two of them. A lot of words wanted to escape from both of their lips but they held it back, they're too emotional to talk further about this. Turning around, she cleared her throat as her gripped around the strap of her bag tightened " I'm going home. Tell your girlfriend we can have that double date next time. "

As usual, Lee Heeseung did nothing to keep her from fully exiting the room. He was left inside with tears streaming down his face, fist clenching and unclenching. And when was the last time he cried about her? Probably years ago too. He knew she was right, it might've happened a long time ago but it doesn't give him a free pass to not apologize for what he did. 

" Heeseungie-- " Hwang Ara paused when she saw the tall boy enter her dorm, her members being out which only left her inside. She warily watched how Heeseung dragged his self towards her with his head hanging low. She smiled softly assuming that the boy must've been tired from practicing all day but the smile on her lips soon got washed off when Heeseung placed his head on her shoulders and a sob followed. 

With her eyes widening in panic, she wraps her arms around Heeseung in concern but Heeseung stayed silent and continued to cry onto her shoulder with his hand gripping her waist. It was worse. He was sobbing heavily, a crying mess and Ara have never seen him like this before.

Heeseung usually just shows what he wanted to show towards the girl, the line he drew between the two of them is clear for the girl. There are topics he doesn't want to talk about and Ara would never ask about it again, she always adjusts for him to which she doesn't mind. Why? Because Hwang Ara likes Lee Heeseung very much. And to hear him breakdown like this, pained her. And all she could ask to herself is why? or maybe who did this to him?
