Min-young's POV

As I turned my back at him, I just kept on walking while my tears kept on falling. I don't have any idea where to go. I feel lost. As soon as I saw a bench, I just sat there.

"Hey. Ice cream?" The man from earlier said while holding an ice cream in his both hands.

"W-what.. Y-you followed me up until h-here?" I said surprised.

He just smiled, "Yep, it's too dangerous when a girl like you walks alone in the street and look at you, you're wasted. Someone might take advantage of you." He's kinda nice. "Uhm, I'm sorry for earlier. I didn't know he can do that." He said feeling sorry. He gave me the other ice cream.

"No, it's not your fault anyway. Don't be." I smiled at him. A sad one.

"Uhm, c-can I ask you a question? It might be private and personal tho." He said while scratching the back of his head.

"S-sure, I guess."

"About, uhm.. Irene.. uhm.." He hesitated. I kinda got a clue where this would go.

"Oh. Uhm, Yes. It's true.", I bitterly smiled. "I saw her with—" he cut me off this time.

"Chanyeol. Yes, yes." I stared at him surprised. "You knew?"

"Just recently. I was about to tell V, but you did already." He replied.

After that, we just stayed in silent and ate our ice cream.

After a moment of silence, I spoke.

"I'm tired of crying and weeping, you know." I look at him and bitterly smiled. "For all my life, I always encounter this feeling. This feeling of rejection, disappointment.. I've been to many things. I always question myself on how I able to surpassed all the struggles." I heaved a sigh. I took a glance of him and he just stayed silently hearing all my rants.

"You can always go to someone who can ease away all the time, like your parents, and everything will be better." He patted my back saying it's okay.

"Great Idea. Wanna come with me?" I asked him.

"To where?" He said confusingly.

"My parents."

"Hi mom, dad. I missed you." I said as a tear ran down my cheeks.

"I-I didn't know, I-I'm so sorry. I shouldn't—" He said.

"It's fine." I chuckled. "You're right anyways. They are indeed, my best medicine." I said while looking at the gravestone in front of me.

"They died in a car accident. I was with them and you know what's the worst thing? I was the only one who survived. I always wished that I should've also died. So I can be with them. They are the only thing I have, yet they are now gone." I cried so hard remembering the car crash accident. I still remember every single detail.

"Hey. It's not your fault. Maybe God has some reasons why he let you survive. Hush now, a beautiful girl like you should not cry." I kneeled and just cry my heart out.

"Are you an only child? Don't you have any relatives?" He said while patting my back gently.

"I have an older brother, but we're not that close. He lives here in Seoul, while my family and I are in Busan. We just knew each other when I came here. And yes, I have relatives but they are all in states. After the accident, I was left with no choice but to live with myself. I had no ochoice but to be independent. I had no one that time. I have group members, KARD. But I don't trust them that much, yet. That's when I started to send letters to him, my childhood bestfriend, Taehyung. I was so happy that we became close and he remembered me. I had a crush on him since we're kids. Puppy love, I guess?" I chuckled. "But I think not everything would go well and here I am again, all fucked up." I looked up the sky just so my tears won't fall.

"Why are you saying all of this to me?" He said in a gentle way while looking at me sympathetically.

"I don't know. I can trust you, right?" He just smiled at me.

"Come here, you need a power hug. You're a very strong girl." He said with his arms wide open. I nodded slowly and he hugged me.

"Hush, everything will be okay." He said.

"But wait, you mean group members? You mean.." He said.

"Uhm, yes. We're just trainees." I confirmed. Then suddenly I remember..

"Oh, uhm, " I suddenly broke the hug and looked at him shyly.

"What's the matter?" He asked.

"I know you're a member of Bangtan, but what's your... name?" I said while avoiding his gaze.

He laughed so hard after hearing what I said. Aish! That's so embarrassing! Min-young, pabo-yah!

"You don't know me? Hey, you were supposed to know me!" He said while still laughing.

"Uhm.. Sorry?" Now, I'm so embarrased.

"Hahaha.. Okay, I'll introduce myself, alright? I'm Min-Yoongi also known as Suga." He said while smiling at me. Now I noticed how big his gums is.
