THANK YOU // DEX ✔️

6.

Siyoung came home. It was dark everywhere because she had just returned from training. She was preparing for her comeback, so she had to train from early morning until late at night. She felt sorry for Seojun, who always waited for her. But this time, it was different. Everything was pitch black.

"Where have you been for so long?" a voice came from the darkness. Startled, Siyoung fell to the ground and even dropped the bag she was holding. She thought Seojun was asleep since it was so dark. She didn't expect him to be waiting for her in the darkness.

"Don't scare me like that," Siyoung smiled as Seojun turned on the lights. She tried not to think about the terrifying tone in which he had spoken. She was just thinking about hugging and kissing her boyfriend.

"Where were you?" This time, Seojun yelled. Siyoung flinched. He yelled really loudly.

"I told you, I have a comeback. I need to train," Siyoung calmly replied as she finally took off her shoes and entered the living room.

"And am I supposed to believe that?" Seojun shouted, "I saw you having fun with that young guy. You were definitely with him."

"Young guy?" Siyoung paused, "Oh, you mean Serim from Cravity. I was just helping him with the lyrics for a song. They will have debut soon," she smiled.

"I don't believe a word you say. You're always somewhere else, and I'm supposed to believe it's just work? You're definitely sleeping around with every idol who smiles at you," Seojun slapped her so hard that Siyoung flew onto the couch. She had to hold her face, which was pulsating with pain.

"I have you, why would I be with someone else?" Siyoung whimpered. Her face was really hurting. Seojun grabbed her hair, likely pulling out a few strands. Siyoung wiped tears from her eyes. "Please, believe me, you're the only one I love," Siyoung whispered.

Seojun didn't say anything, he just punched her in the stomach, let her go, and angrily walked into the room.

Siyoung sat up abruptly. Sweat glued her hair to her forehead, and she was breathing heavily. She sounded as if she had just finished a marathon. Tears were streaming from her eyes.

Was she crying? Did that nightmare cause Siyoung to cry in her sleep?

The brunette pulled her knees to her chest, hugged her legs, rested her head on her knees, and burst into tears.

She thought that dream was long gone. She hadn't had it for a while. She hadn't had nightmares for a long time, so why was it coming back now? Was this nightmare trying to warn her? Was that nightmare trying to tell her to ignore Dex? Or was it telling her to give Dex a chance, that the dreams would only disappear afterward?

Siyoung was confused. She didn't know what to do. She was sure of only one thing. She didn't want these nightmares in her life anymore, and she would do anything to get rid of them.
