FLASHBACK-
MINA
‘Aren’t you hurt too?’
Joon said the words quietly but I heard them loud and clear. I kept thinking about how the feelings had built between Jimin and I, they had started so casually as if it was a crush that would fade away but kept building until I couldn’t stop thinking about him. I wanted to see him all the time, I wanted to know he was okay and smiling. I wanted him to hold me and to look at me, I wanted him to love me. If I explained myself, maybe he would understand why I hadn’t told him. What if we had a chance?
‘Maybe I should speak to Jimin, I need to sort all of this out before I go. I shouldn’t leave without apologising.’
Joon stood and came to stand in front of me as I wiped my tears and made to walk towards the door. I looked at him, his expression full of sympathy and something else I couldn’t really put my finger on.
‘I don’t think you should.’
‘Why not? Surely he could try to understand if I explained, what if I leave and he just thinks-‘
‘Mina, he just wanted a fuck. That’s all. He told all of us he could get you into bed and I guess he was right.’
‘What?’
‘He does this all the time, with whoever is convenient and I guess this time it was you. I’m sorry to be the one to tell you but if I had known that you would fall for it I would have warned you.’
‘No…that can’t be true. He’s been so kind and he-‘
‘Yeah, he listened to you and made you feel safe and all of that but that is the game Mina and you fell for it. I’ve known him since he was a kid and this is what he does.’
I walked backwards until I reached the bed and sat down heavily. I was so shocked that I couldn’t even cry; was this actually true, this is what he does? This is what he did to me but he had the nerve to make me feel guilty about what I had done?
It hadn’t been long, I knew that, a few weeks but it had felt special. Even to myself I sounded naïve, if what Joon was saying was true then I truly had fallen into the trap and now I had feelings for someone who thought I was no more than a joke. A way to pass the time.
‘I’m really sorry, truly. If I had known-‘
‘It doesn’t matter now, I’m going home.’
‘Mina-‘
‘Listen, I came here to get away from a dick that humiliated me and I’ve ended up even more humiliated by someone that I’ve only known for a few weeks and really thought I was falling in love with.’
‘In love with?’
‘Fuck this. I’m going home. Thank you for telling me the truth, I would have embarrassed myself even more if I did go to speak to him now. Thank you for everything else too, you’ve been a good friend.’
‘Mina, listen I-‘
‘No, you don’t need to say anything to me. I’m done.’
I grabbed all of my stuff and barged past Joon, I made my way downstairs and out of the door towards the main lodge. I didn’t look back even though I could hear Joon calling my name.
