(Hari's POV)

After that walk with Mijin ,I head straight to the sound system where Namra is working.

"Hey." I greeted Cheol-soo who's working with Namra.

After entering the room, I immediately looked around to find Namra.

I didn't see any traces of her and asked Cheol-soo "Where's Namra?"

"Haven't seen her since we're done." He answered, still working on the sounds.

I just nodded at his answer and looked outside the window where the production is busy getting ready for next week's play.

After 1 minute of staring at nothing ,Cheol-soo beside me called my name.

"Hari-ah, Listen to this. Is it Namra's voice?" He asked, while passing the headphones to me.

I didn't hesitate to put it on and listen to the person's conversation.

(Keeping it between us can be nice too.)

(Don't you feel uncomfortable hiding it.)

Wait- Isn't that Onjo's voice?

Because of curiosity ,I continued listening to their conversation, which surprised me.

(Just because I'm not telling people doesn't mean I don't like you.)

(You have a point. I will stop posting anything.)

Is Namra Onjo's girlfriend?
The one she's talking about in her IG posts and stories?
Don't tell me they're dating.

(Aren't you afraid people would find out?)

(I am. But I care about you more.)

Seconds later, I heard Namra sighed and spoke again.

(I'm your girlfriend.)

That word shocked me and even gave me goosebumps.

I feel betrayed.
Why didn't she say anything to me?

(Yaah, say it one more time. I didn't quite catch it. What was it?)

Onjo kept speaking and that made my blood boil.

A huge sigh left my mouth ,full of anger.

Waah, my day was doing fine not until I heard this shitty news coming out straight from their mouths.

I got impatient because of their conversation, and turned the volume up for me to hear more.

(I am your girlfriend.)
Namra repeated.

More questions keep entering my head.

Why didn't she tell me first?

Why do I need to witness their relationship like this?

I suddenly remembered that time when she's drunk and telling me to go home.
And that time at the camping.

She's been protecting her since day 1.

Those lies.

I should've been aware.

(Can we hug? No more virtual hugs.)

(Put the shirt on first. Aren't you cold? It's freezing here.)

(Are you disgusted by me?)

(Alright. Let's hug.)

After that line, All I heard from them was screaming and yelling.

I took a big gulp before turning on the speakers outside ,max volume.
