I rubbed my face with both hands, giving a groan out of agony and dread. This will be actual hell, no way they will let me sit in here with this guy for four hours.

This is actually a crime.

"I need to leave, this is actually just.." I couldn't even express my annoyance, I stood up, but then sat back down as I realised that it's a bit unprofessional for me to leave not even an hour in.

Sunghoon just studied my face, that smirk still persisting as he clearly saw that his stupid little plan worked.

I don't think I've ever met a guy as desperate as him.

"Fine, whatever, speak." I didn't even care that I was talking to him so informally, with a tone that sounded very reluctant and averse.

"Hm, where do I even start." He looked up to the ceiling of my office as I just observed his face intensely.

His eyes wandered back to mine, and we exchanged a moment of prolonged eye contact. His lips pursed, as if he was about to speak.

"I have an issue, and it's affecting me really badly." Sunghoon began, and I could already begin to see where this was going.

"What is it." I rolled my eyes, speaking in a flat, expressionless tone.

"A girl, she's as callous as a brick wall, refuses to listen to me. All I'd want for her is to hear me out." Sunghoon began talking, and I already know he was referring back to me.

"Yeah? And I wonder what you did to make her act like that towards you." I bitterly snapped back harshly, his lips arched subtly, betraying a sly smirk

"I admit it, I fucked up. Caused her distress and hurt her, I was young and dumb, had no idea that my best friend of years was right all along." Sunghoon's gaze locked onto mine, unwavering.

I was hearing him out right now, and although I did feel a little bit of guilt and sympathy towards him, I still was reminded of the horrible times I had to suffer because of Mirae.

"Don't know, seems like a hopeless cause." A bitter chuckle escaped me, despite my efforts to hold it back.

Sunghoon stared at me with incredulousness, he was trying hard to not give up, but he seriously could not believe what he was hearing.

"Nari - come on." His voice had a hint of plead inbetwixt desperacy.

"Sunghoon, I'm telling you this straight, it's a waste of time." I maintained my iciness, the walls I was building up unyielding.

Sunghoon leant forward on my desk, fixing a steady, relentless gaze on me. With the slight arch of his lip, he gave another sly smirk.

"I don't think so. I think behind that wall you're holding up high, there is something else that tells me to not go." His tone in a low whisper, my heart began that pacing again.

And I found myself estranged as to why something like that would happen with Sunghoon, but not my actual boyfriend.

Now, I was in conflict with my own self. He has always sparked my interest, and always never failed to excite me, and as much as I wanted him in my life, something was just holding me back.

I rubbed my face again, giving an exasperated sigh. God, how he was right, it made me mad.

"Anything else you wish to add?" I resort back to my unfeeling tone of voice, ignoring his comment.

He gave a small smile, knowing fine well he was right judging from my ignorance of his comment.

"Yeah, the fact that she also has a lame ass boyfriend who can't even treat her well enough is pissing me off too." Sunghoon spat bitterly, frustration lacing every each of his words.

I tilt my head to the side slightly, raising my brow lightly.

"Please elaborate." My lips elongated into a small, know-it-all smile as his lips bloomed a pleased yet smug smile.

"Simply put, he's useless, for such a girl like she is, he's not doing it right. I wish she'd have the guts to either break it off with that fucker, or take matters into her own hands." Sunghoon did not cut off his gaze, not for a second.

Every word he said, he looked me straight in the eyes. And I know we were both thinking the same thing, but he didn't want to initiate due to my stone-cold attitude.

"So what are you gonna do now?" I inquired, leaning on my desk as I stared into his eyes too.

The room was heavy, full with thick clouds of tension.

"What more can I do but convince her a little more? She'll see eventually for herself how it's like, and I suppose we'll go from there." He replied, and lowkey, as much as I pretended to hate this, it was getting my heart beat running laps, seriously, I could feel it just beating consistently.

"And if she isn't convinced?" I raised a brow, I have no idea why we were still talking as if this girl wasn't me, but anyways.

"Oh, she will be."
