"Damn it!" I shouted, my frustration echoing in the empty restroom as I slammed the door behind me. My mind was a swirling storm of emotions.

How on earth could they have had lunch together and to make matters worse, War had allowed Earth to feed him? It was stupid, to say the least.

I paced back and forth in the dimly lit restroom, unable to shake off the disturbing thoughts that gnawed at my conscience. The walls seemed to close in on me as I grappled with a torrent of questions and accusations swirling in my mind. I had made it abundantly clear to War, countless times that he should not become really close to Earth. Yet, despite my warnings, they continued to spend time together as if my words held no meaning.

The turmoil within me intensified as I wander, did War not realize Earth's feelings for him? It was almost maddening to consider that such an obvious sentiment could escape him. How could he be so oblivious to the fact that Earth cared for him in a way that transcended mere friendship?

I leaned against the cold wall, my mind racing with conflicting emotions. I clenched my fists, nails digging into my palms as I recalled the moment that had shaken me to my core. Earth with a warm smile had extended a forkful of food toward War and hell? War accepted it.

My chest tightened with anger as I replayed that scene in my mind. "Fuck!" I shouted.

With a heavy sigh, I pushed myself away from the wall and approached the sink, splashing cold water onto my face in an attempt to quell the rising tide of emotions.

I walked to my motorbike, wanting to erase the frustration images that had seared into my mind just moments ago. As my hand reached out to grasp the cool handlebars, a grip on my wrist halted my movements. I turned to confront the source of this interruption.

A sigh escaped my lips as recognition set in. It was Pim, a woman with whom I spent a night a few days ago. The fuck she was here? She wasn't in the same faculty with me after all.

I couldn't hide the irritation that welled up within me. I instinctively pulled my hand away from her grasp, the touch of her fingers feeling more repulsive than ever. "What do you want?" I asked annoyingly.

Pim furrowed with frustration and disbelief. "What do I want? Seriously, Yin? You don't even call me after that night and you ask me what I want?" She inquired, making me inwardly hiss.

What did she expect from me? Did she really believe that I would want to stay in contact after that night? The mere memory of how she had kissed me made my skin crawl with discomfort and disgust.

"Well, I had no obligation to keep in touch," I retorted coldly.

She scoffed. "Wow, you are really something, Yin. You act like that night meant nothing."

I rolled my eyes at her melodrama. "It didn't," I replied bluntly, my patience wearing thin. "It was a one night stand, Pim. Let's not make it worse by pretending otherwise. And I never asked you to be with me that night," I said.

She furrowed in disbelief. "Yin, I thought there was something between us, something special," she uttered, her voice wavering.

I couldn't hide my frustration any longer as I caressed my face harshly. "It was a one night stand. That's it. There was never anything special about it," I snapped. "So, do us both a favor and stay the hell out of my life."

I had intended to get on my motorbike but before I could do that, Pim's hand met my cheek with a resounding slap. My eyes widened in shock. I staggered slightly, taken aback by the sheer audacity of her act. Who the hell did she think she was, slapping me?
