"Sit"

I sighed, taking a seat across from Seungcheol in his office

It was 6 in the morning, and I was up earlier, I guess I was too excited to be going back home that I forgot Seungcheol wakes up around 5am

"You thought you could just leave early in the morning and not eat breakfast?"

Oh, and I got caught trying to leave this place

"Yes?" I questioned, smiling nervously, clueless for what lecture I was in for this morning

Too early for this shit.

"Hani, your manners are changing. I don't know if I like this new side of you or not, but I'm starting to not" Seungcheol stated, leaning back onto his chair as he stared at me

I raised a brow, I've changed?

"What's going on with you? You've been so— I don't know, but in the 22, almost 23 years of knowing you, your attitude is starting to show. Something I've never witnessed out of you" Seungcheol spoke again

He moves forward to his desk, leaning in closer to me, observing me as if somethings wrong with me

"You've always been so innocent, so kind, so 'Hana' but after discovering the guys you talk to? You lost your virginity at 16, I'm sure there's more things about you that I don't even know and that's something I don't like Hana. You know how this family feels when we keep things from each other"

I sighed, opening my mouth to speak

"Cheol-"

"Do you not trust me enough? I swear I've done everything in my power and heart to love and protect you. Not as my cousin, as my sister" he calmly speaks to me, looking at me with a look of betrayal

I thought to myself for a while, is he right?

"Usually when I'm messing with you, you just laugh along. But nowadays you just roll your eyes and make comments. Hansol even said that you kick him out of your room when you guys have your gossip sessions, you don't talk to Mom that much anymore. Your attitude towards your dad? Even he's speechless that you almost slammed the door on him. And your mother. You know I hate her and you had every right to do that to her but what's going on? Is there anything else you're hiding from me? Or is there a reason why you hide things from me?"

Fuck

He is right

I gulped, he's fucking right

Who am I?

Do I even know myself right now?

I would never act like this, not to anyone, especially to my family and friends

I huffed, sitting flat onto my seat, causing Seungcheol to stand up

He notices the silence I've given him, he furrowed his brows, curious to what I have in mind
