"Chaeryeong"

Hearing Yeji saying her real name made her heart pound and made her so overwhelmed. She had a lot of thoughts in her head that made her confused so much at the moment.

As Chaeryeong looks at Yeji's eyes, all she could see was how Yeji looked at her with the same gaze when the older confessed to her way back then. The same eyes that told her "I love you"

"I... I have to go" Chaeryeong said quickly and grabbed her things. Tears falling to her cheeks as she walks away from Yeji.

She hurriedly went out of the café, wanting to leave and to calm herself down back in her airbnb but suddenly she felt someone holding her wrist, she turned to see Yeji. She felt so overwhelmed that tears continued to fall to her cheeks.

"Chaeryeong, please I need to talk to-"

"Please Yeji, I... I can't do this right now" Chaeryeong said as she cries

"Then we can talk at my place, please Chaeryeong just let me explain" Yeji said and Chaeryeong just nodded, its not as if she could stay away from the older for so long

They went back to Yeji's car and Yeji had to glance at the younger from time to time to just make sure she was okay.

When they reached Yeji's airbnb which was just across Chaeryeong's, Chaeryeong had to make sure that Yuna, Yubin and Haerin were just inside the house

They entered and Yeji let Chaeryeong sit in the couch.

"So umm..." Yeji was kind of nervous on how to start the conversation

"Since when?"

"What?"

"Since when did you start to remember?" Chaeryeong asked, not looking at Yeji.

"Yesterday was when I fully remembered. Like Everything" Yeji confessed

"When you held dinner at the Country Clubhouse was the first time I saw you after a while. When I saw you, my head started to hurt so my mom told me that I should see a doctor and have it checked. I'm thinking mom knows since she was the one who encouraged me to go to the doctor" Yeji said and a tear dropped to Chaeryeong's lap.

"Aunt Hwang is still the same" Chaeryeong said and chuckled softly, trying to stop herself from crying. She knew that Yeji's mom loves her just like her own daughter, unlike Yeji's dad. He was always against their relationship.

"Can I ask you something?" Yeji asked and Chaeryeong finally looks at her

"What is it?"

"Why did you act like you don't know me at first?" Yeji asked her and Chaeryeong swallowed the thick lump in her throat, she wasn't that ready to tell Yeji but she had to.

"Years ago, it was the time when I called you, I wanted you to come home because it was too late and I needed you. I then receive a voice message from you, I... I wasn't sure if it was you but it came from your contact.

You... You told me that you'd be breaking up with m-me. I-I needed you the most that time and you suddenly said that. It b-broke my heart hearing that you want to break up with me. W-we planned all things together, you said we would get married soon but then it happened.
