Somin and Teho
The sun was setting when Somin wandered in the direction of the dorms, fully engrossed in her thoughts. Time spent with Junu was wholesome, yet another person warmed her heart. Absent-mindedly, she sat on another bench on the cycling path. The river still sparkled nearby, hypnotizing her.
It's great the river is near.
She cherished small moments; tried to be grateful for a change.
Relaxing made her cry silently. Her body needed a detox from memories. Anything romantic became Cholsu-linked in her mind and she was struggling to break that connection.
These were the moments she wanted to spend with someone. Loneliness was painfully crushing her. She hoped her life in the new city would be alongside a beloved man. Somin daydreamed about holding hands and sunset kisses even though deep down she knew long before the breakup it would never have been like that.
He wasn't like that at all. She realized.

Somin tried to make her facade look more stable, but it wasn't honest or working at all for what mattered.
A few stones around her pretty shoes caught her eye and one by one, she started to throw them into the river, watching them make a plethora of rings that collided and meshed together in places.

Unknown number: Where are you?
What the hell? Somin thought.
Unknown number: Mia wanted me to check on you since she'll be out. I checked and you're not home.
The text explained.
Mia, I'm alright. That was Somin's first thought.
Wait.
No, I'm not.
Somin texted back a location tag without any words and realized it was almost dark. The first stars peeked out, glowing silvery in the dark sky.
After a while, quickened steps approached her and came to a sudden halt and Somin turned around to see a figure dressed in a gray tracksuit, breathing heavily.
