“ You sing first, “ Jennie said, slowly standing, taking a large distance from Yerim. “ I need to go to the toilet. “


Giggling at her way out, she heard Yerim calling for her as she walked out right away, saving herself for the humiliation if ever forced to sing.


Walking gingerly at the hallway, she can feel her head throbbing. Did I already drink that much?


Seeing them laughing, suddenly brings me to old school days. Sigh!


Massaging her head lightly, the ache she was feeling suddenly drops from her head to her stomach as she abruptly stopped at the center of the hallway.


Shocked and paling, she unconsciously put a hand at the wall, helping her stand firmly as her line of sight focused at the silver haired guy standing with his phone in his hand scrolling. As the said guy looked at her direction with the same reaction.


Kai.


Hate. Love. Anger. Longing. Lost. All this feelings mixed up at the bottom of their stomachs as they continued staring at each other. Both felt like they’ve been poured a bucket of ice over their bodies.


A moment or so, Jennie gained her composure and walked slowly towards Kai, when the said guy put his phone in his pocket and approached her. They stopped a cautious distance with each other.


What should I say? Ask some questions? Or express the longing?

I have no idea what to say.


Kai looked at Jennie coldly as the designer lowered her head, suddenly couldn’t look at the pain swimming through her former lover’s eyes. “ When did you come back? “


Oblivous at the quivering voice of the girl he loved the most, he smiled grimly. “ I’ve been thinking, the moment you see me. What will you say to me. “ His voice cracked a little, couldn’t contain to look at her anymore shaking his head lightly, he continued, “ I’ve anticipated a lot. But never thought you would be so calm. “


Kai’s whole body was shaking in a mixed feeling he wasn’t ready to face. He couldn’t even notice the twitching of her bottom lip as she tried so hard to hold her tears at the back of her eyelids. “ Jennie Kim, how could you be so cruel? “


Checking at her emotions at bay, Jennie bit her lip hard she could taste blood in it. Controlling her emotions. Decided to play the deadly option to protect herself instead of standing in front of the man he loved the most like a small weak pathetic bitch. “ Cruel? I’m never a kind person. “


Shocked and confused at the brunette’s cold treatment. Kai pushed Jennie at the wall, holding her at her shoulder. “ We promised we’ll wait for each other. Why, why did you gave up? “


Even though being caught off guard by the sudden push, Jennie pull her walls up high, sticking at her facade. “ Tired. Tired of waiting, “


“ Tired?? you’re always patient! From when did you get tired of waiting?? “ Kai yelled demandingly, she hold the designer firmly at the wall.


Jennie sighed, her head is pounding and her heart felt like being ripped in half. She looked up at him coldly, dodging the questions, “ What do you wanna hear after all? “


“ Why did you break up with me? “ Kai’s husked, his voice drop lower with his shaking body.


Jennie looked at him forcing her own tears to not fall, even though she can already felt it breaking from her eyes. “ Because I fell in love with another person. “


“ I don’t believe that! “ Kai pushed her further, pinning her at the wall. “ You’re lying! “


Jennie felt her fight back, she tried pushing at Kai when she felt he was getting closer. She kept pushing and pushing at him. “ Believe it or not is up to you! I’m really tired of waiting, I feel it’s not love anymore. “


Hearing it from her is definitely different from when she just send it by a text message 2 years ago. Kai loosened his grip a little, with a new flash of pain flow through his body. He felt so weak, mumbling, “ You lie “


“ You can think this way if it makes you feel better. “ Jennie said, finally pushing Kai out of her way, she hands were formed in a tight fist as she started walking away.


But before the designer could go any further she felt Kai hold her wrist tightly, not letting her go.


" Jennie, I'm back. You don't have to wait anymore. I won't leave you again. "
