jin's pov

Two months had already passed and news in school spread that Krista's boyfriend is Jungkook. I didn't confess anymore. I knew I was too late, so why should I bother getting her back? She's already happy.

I already left the apartment since it always brings me memories that I shouldn't want to remember, which saddens me. I wasn't all right for the past two months. I cried, I was miserable, it was a fiasco.

I also asked my principal to have a hiatus for one year in my school so that I could focus in my modeling career. She just approved, but told me that I should promise to get good grades when I come back.

Basically, I'm back in Korea. One of the reasons why I went back here is to get over my feelings to Krista and to find another woman that would at least appreciate me.

I find none—yet.

Technically, I have supporters but I don't even know them individually. I don't want to date someone that I don't even know well—unless my feelings would develop.

One of my classmates back in high school confessed to me days ago. She already liked me since our school days but I rejected her several times since I was dating Irene that time. Now she's trying to get me; should I give her a shot? I thought to myself.

I don't know. I don't play with girls' feelings towards me.

Anyway, her name is Namyeon. To be honest, she's so nice and spontaneous, which is one of my favorite traits of her. She's nearly as tall as me which I find comfortable.

Krista really is short then. She's just in my neck level, I said in my mind which caused me to laugh by myself.

Shit, I still couldn't forget about her. It bothers me to the fact that we don't talk anymore, as if no friendship was built between us. Just—shit, I'm completely feeling so shit.

"Kim Seokjin, kindly forget Krista already. She's not worth your time, Seokjin," I muttered to myself but hearing those words just made my heart flinch.

She doesn't even bother to chat or call me. She doesn't even know that I left my apartment already since I'm pretty sure that she won't mind visiting me, at least. That's painful, to be honest.

She's not worth my time.

I shrugged off those thoughts and stood up from my bed. I still have work to do and Krista's not worth my time. I grabbed my coat once I was ready to leave.

I went downstairs and saw my parents talking like a happy couple. How come they are so in-love while I'm depressed by being in a friend-zone stage?

"Mom, dad, I have to go to shooting now. Today, we'll shoot for Vogue," I interjected them with a playful wink. They just laughed and gave me my car key. I thanked them and quickly went to our parking lot.

You could say we're rich; but I'm not boasting. Hard work just pays off.

I went inside my car and started the engine. Once I started to drive, I heard my car screeched. I started to drive as calmly as I could.

"I'm not cheating, for God's sake, Jungkook!" I yelled angrily while I pressed the temples of my forehead using my fingers.
