<<14th September>>

Today is the first day of school and I'm getting ready. Grabbing everything I need, I leave the house and head towards school.

Almost nothing has changed during the summer holidays. Ah no wait, I forgot a perhaps important detail.

Minho suddenly cut contact with me.

You may wonder why, but I stopped asking myself this about a month ago, for my own good.

Needless to say, when I realized that he would never respond to all the messages I sent him to find out how he was, that he would no longer answer my calls and that he would probably never show up again, I locked myself in my hotel room and never left for the whole holiday.

Even though I didn't want to at first, I eventually told my mother everything but she couldn't come up with a logical guess either.

I felt and still feel used by him. But the thing that hurts the most is that I really believed in his words, his gestures and his eyes.

I haven't said anything to Yeji and the others, I don't know how to tell them and i also haven't seen them all summer.

Except Yeji, we saw each other recently at the end of August.
She saw that I was a little broken but, seeing that I didn't want to talk about it, she didn't insist.

But I just can't swallow the fact that nothing but bullshit came out of Minho's mouth. This makes me lose hope in love, honestly.

I don't know if I'll ever find the confidence to entrust my heart to someone else only to have it shattered again.

The last message I received from Minho was two months ago.

//Flashback to two months ago//
<<July>>

I was helping my mom plan another vacation and I got the idea to ask Minho if he wanted to come with us.

Even though he had already turned down other requests to even just go out and meet up, I'm not giving up.

So I text him.

<Hey Minho, I know you said you're really busy but I was wondering if you'd like to go to Greece together. Let me know :)>

Minho reads the message immediately and he starts typing.

<No, Eunbi. Sorry but I just don't have time for this. You know not everyone has the opportunity to rest, not even in the summer. I have a future that I have to achieve and I definitely won't do it by lying on the beach. It's time for you too to focus on your life and act like an adult.
Take care>

My heart sinks. Oh well, maybe he didn't mean to write this, right?
You know, in messages, you can never understand the intonation of the voice so they are easily misunderstood.
