"I look at you, and I just love you, and it terrifies me. It terrifies me what I would do for you."

"I really want to kiss you right now."
"Then kiss me until I forget how terrified I am of everything wrong with my life."
I head to the convenience store as I was thirsty. I also needed to take my mind off of the crime I just committed. I knew no place was safe for me, so I told Jungkook to take care of my family, as I would just be a burden on them. I'm sure Omma and Yeri will manage well without me now as Omma now has a decent paying job.
I went to the coolers and bought nine cans of beer. I needed to take my mind off of Irene. But looking at the cans kept on reminding me about the night when Irene reminded me that she's my drug, the only thing I need to be addicted to.
But buying these cans might just let me forget everything I love about her. I need to do this, for her.
I was heading to the counter to pay for my drinks as I heard a girl struggling with her bags. Her voice sounds way to familiar to me so I turn around hoping it's not who I think it is.
It's her...
My drug I needed more than anything else, struggling with her luggage.
Wait, why does she have her luggage? Is she staying her for a while. Oh shit, I forgot her family is in Daegu, her father's parents are here.
Way to go Taehyung.
I paid quickly and started heading towards the door, until she bumped into my chest.
"I'm sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going." She said still not facing me.
Those exact words she said to me on her first day of school. I was frozen, I didn't know what to do. I just stood there looking at her. The one who I was desperately waiting to talk to, touch and hold.
She looked up, meeting me square in the eyes.
My mouth gaped open, and tears were threatening to roll down my cheeks. She looked at the beer in my hands.
I was secretly begging for her help. She knew I was as her eyes turned watery.
"Taehyung..." She whispered giving up and pulling me into a tight hug.
"I thought I would never see you again." She sobbed, only making my tears fall on her head. I didn't hug back, I had to fight back my temptation.
She pulled away immediately wiping the tears off my face, as I was standing there like a rock statue.
"You know how much I cried last night because you said you were going to leave me forever. I didn't even want to think about what I would do if I didn't have you, but yesterday you said it and crashed my world." She said in between her sobs.
"Will you make me a promise?" She asked me caressing my face, pulling away from the hug, keeping the eye contact with me.
"You won't leave me, promise?" She said.
Promise....
That's what I wanted to say, but instead I said this...
"Who are you? I'm sure you're mistaken. I have no clue what you're talking about. Please excuse me, I'm getting late to meet my girlfriend." I said to her, taking her hands off of my face.
I started to leave the store until she said this.
"At least take off our couple ring. That way you won't have any misunderstandings between you and your NEW girlfriend, Kim. Tae. Hyung." She said monotone, emphasizing every syllable in my name.

Shit, she saw my ring. I didn't have the guts to separate myself from the last memory I had of her apart from pictures of her on my phone.
I had to do this now, to keep her away from me.
I turned around so our bodies were facing each other. I hesitated but eventually took the ring off of my finger and put it in her hand.
"Forget about whatever we had because I hate you. For getting so involved in my life, messing with my mind, and making me do the strangest things. It was torture." I said to her face.
The best torture anyone could ask for...
Sweet torture... Bae Joohyun.
Everyone was already staring at us in the store, they cleared my way as I left the store, hearing the sound of Joohyun crying on the floor. I took a quick glance back to see her crying with the ring I gave her hands that were held to her chest.
I'm a monster...
Irene's POV
After the whole scene in the convenience store it hit me, that he officially had it with me. He gave up and broke down.
He was just like a shattered mirror, broken that couldn't be put back together, only hurting me with his sharp glass shards.
I couldn't stand the atmosphere of Daegu anymore as I was mentally and emotionally hurt. I decided to call up my driver.
