It has been hours since Chaeryeong got back home from work, she would usually be home by seven but today as soon as she got inside your shared house she didn't greet you or look at you. It has been just like that for the past few days and it hurts you, she only says "i'm going to work", "close the door", and "turn the lights off when you leave"
It hurts you so much because you miss the times when Chaeryeong would constantly give you hugs and kisses before leaving the house and sometimes even begging you to come with her at work but that was two years ago. It just changed when the day her parent's had died from a car crash. It wasn't your fault, you knew that but you guessed she was just letting out her anger and frustration on you.
The two of you were sitting on the sofa, next to each other, watching the new kdrama on the tv as Chaeryeong just keeps on scrolling through her phone. You let out a sigh when you see her expression change when you turn around to start a conversation with her.
"You really like pushing people to the limits, don't you?" you snapped at her, not knowing what got into your head that drove you to be rude to her, maybe it's the constant treatment you've been receiving from her days ago.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" Chaeryeong snapped back at you, her expression was clear that she didn't like how you were reacting
"No Chaery, what is wrong with YOU" you scoffed back at her, she puts her phone down on the couch and looks directly at you with anger
"What do you mean what's wrong with me?! There's nothing wrong with me babe, if there's something wrong then it's definitely you. Being so rude to me when all I did was mind my own fucking business" she said with frustration, obviously letting out her anger on you. Raising her voice did made you a little bit chock but you didn't back down
"Nothing wrong?! you haven't talk to me for days without any reason. That's nothing wrong to you Chaery?" you said back
Chaeryeong looked away from you and rolled her eyes. She was usually very calm when you two would argue but this was totally different from all of your other arguments. It was hard and painful for you to see this side of your girlfriend, she was being distant.
You took a deep breath and tried to calm down a bit like you usually do and then looked at her
"Chaery, baby, please tell me what's wrong" you told her softly as you tried to reach her hand but she pulled away fast. As if the contact the both of you just made burned her and your heart shattered at that.
"We're around each other too much, it's suffocating" she suddenly said
"I just want some time alone, have some personal space and time. Just me alone on my own" she added, her tone harsh, her words cutting through your heart as you look at her eyes as if it had no emotion
"Why?" you asked, your voice was starting to tremble
"Gosh Y/N! its because you're too clingy! always texting me for the whole day, bombarding me with questions as soon as I get home. It's fucking tiring!" she said in annoyance, her voice raising again made you jump. Along with the way she called you.
Her sudden confession hurt you, before you knew it you were already tearing up.
"I.... H-how could you?" you looked at her with tears flowing down to your cheeks. All you wanted was to be there for her, to take care of her, but now knowing that she found it annoying, it msde your heart feel like someone had pierced it with a knife.
"D-Did you.... really mean that?" you asked her, she looks at you, not answering your question. Soon later you just accepted it. You nodded and pursed your lips as you wiped off your tears.
