july 7th 2023.

i was getting ready to go to my cousins house and spend some time with her. i haven't seen her in a long time, so we both figured we should see eachother and catch up.

as i was applying mascara, i got a notification from my phone. i picked it up to check and saw that it was from the groupchat that had all my members in it.

          the best kpop
        group 😳😳❤️

iammsuyeon: LOLLLL i forgot to tell you guys that i made a reservation for us at this new bbq restaurant

iammsuyeon: i better see everyone there ❤️

i chuckled at her message. i thought about it for a second and decided that i should join them. i mean, i had nothing to do today besides see my cousin.

i then shut off my phone and continued to get ready.

i stood infront of my cousins house holding a small box that had a simple present in it. i then rang the doorbell and waited for her to answer.

once she opened the door she squeaked in excitement and immediately hugged me. i hugged her back as i held the present in my hand.

"gosh, i've missed you so much." she said laughing as she hugged me tight. i chuckled in response.

mina is my older cousin. when we were younger, her and my aunt would always visit us on weekends. our sleepovers were the best. we used to have so much fun.

we both walked in her house and went over to the living room. we spent the day catching up and talking.

"oh my god! how are you and jae-yun? gosh, you two are the cutest." she chuckled.

i paused.

i completely went silent once she mentioned him.

"we broke up a while ago." i let out a nervous laugh.

"oh." she placed her hand on my shoulder. "i'm so sorry." she said.

"no, no, it's okay. really." i smiled. "i'm over it." i said.

we both went silent for a moment before she spoke. "can i ask why?" she asked hesitantly. "i mean, that's if you want to talk about it of cours-"

"mina, i'm okay. seriously." i chuckled.

"but we broke up 'cause he wanted to focus on his career more." i started fidgeting with my fingers as i explained.

"he has me blocked on everything. i have no way in contacting him." i then went quiet for a moment.

i let out a deep sigh and spoke. "we'd talk for hours and hours every night planning our future. we had so much potential." i scoffed.

"i guess good things don't last." i said.

mina then suddenly gave me a tight hug. i paused for a minute before chuckling.

"mina, i swear i'm okay." i hugged her back.
