I couldn't close my eyes that night. I turned my body to my left and to my right but everything seemed to be wrong for me.

Me: Yah wae ...

I stared at the ceiling and suddenly a knife appeared in front of my nose. I couldn't scream because there was a hand closing my mouth tightly. A guy with black mask whispered at me.

Guy: You know where is he right?

I shook my head while crying.

Guy: Tell me or I'll kill you!

Suddenly, a nurse came and opened the door. She shout out loud while throwing the medicine towards that guy. That guy ran away and they couldn't manage to stop him.

Nurse: Gwaenchanha?

I took a deep breath and the doctor came and helped me.

I went home and suddenly eomma brought a lady to my room. It was Rose.

Me: What do you want?

Rose: Seungri-ssi babo!

Me: So?

Rose: I'm going to Australia.

Me: Have a safe journey.

Rose: Lisa ... Seungri and I ... We're very sorry. That night ... He was too drunk.

Me: Who gave him beer? You?

Rose: We went to his cousin's party. And ... I slept with him.

It was hurt to hear that but I kept calm and smile.

Me: Urm ... What can I do?

Rose: He left me after he knew that I was pregnant.

Me: Mianhae Rose but ... Have a safe journey to Australia. Annyeong.

I pushed her out from my room and shed tears silently against the door.

Seunghyun: Wae?

Seunghyun oppa put my lunch beside me. I was still wondering about the incident last two nights.

Seunghyun: Did you recognize him? The guy?

Me: Aniya ...

Seunghyun: I've told you. Don't make any deals with Jiyongi.

Me: It's not about that. It's about me. How did he know that?

I reached school and I kept my things in the locker. When I was about to open my locker, there was a lot of notes fell on the floor. The other students were gazing at me while I was collecting the notes.

Me: Mwoya ...

I stopped collecting when I saw the name on the notes.

Me: Jiyong oppa?

Seunghyun: Mwoya?

Seunghyun oppa came and took one of the notes.

Seunghyun: Throw them. There were empty. Look.

Yes. Those were just some empty notes. Only his name was written on them.

Seunghyun: Let me help you.

Me: Aniya! I want to keep them.

Seungri: Lisa-ssi.

Seunghyun: I'll meet you at the front gate after school.

Seungri: Ppalli. I got something to tell you.

Me: I don't want to hear it.

Seungri: This is important thing! It is about you. And ... Jiyong hyung.

I put those notes in a box and locked my locker. Seungri gripped my hand and brought me to the rooftop through the male toilets.

Me: You know this way?

Seungri: Of course. I'm one of them. A few months ago.

Me: Ppalli tell me.

Seungri: First of all, I'm so sorry about that day. I should've called you earlier before the car hit you. Next, me and Rose. There's nothing happened between us. I ... I was just ... I accompanied her there.

Me: That is important for me? Jinjja? You're wasting my time.

Seungri: Wait. Listen. I'm so sorry. I ... I just can't stop loving you.

Me: Ani ... Seungriseyo ... It was my fault. I fell in love with two persons at the same time.

Seungri: Mwo? What do you mean by two persons?

Me: I can't live without Jiyong oppa. But at the same time ... I ... I still love you. I can't just simply let you go.

Seungri: So ... Can we start it again?

Me: I don't think so. Mianhae.

Seungri: Please let me know why?

Me: Jiyong oppa had never broke my heart.

Seungri: Me too!

Me: Just ... Raise up your child with Rose. As a father.

Seungri: Mwo ... Mwoya?

Me: You broke my heart. Now, my heart is happy to let you go. Go to her. She needs you.

Seungri: Ani! Lisa-ssi. Did she come to you?

I turned around and whimpered. Seungri gripped my hand but I refused to face him.

Seungri: Don't cry ... Yah ...

Me: You don't love me.

Seungri: I do! Lisa-ssi ...
