Sung Ji Yeon's POV

It was really a tiring day, always. I've been so busy this week that I've forgotten about my bestfriend and my boyfriend. I'm also lack of sleep since I have to sign some contracts. I've never been tired like this, now I know that I have no escape on the real world.

But that never hesitated me, I've seen my dad and mom working hard so I have to do it too. My family is my inspiration and I know that I will never let them down.

For some reasons, I felt empty and emotionless. How could I forget my childhood friend? The one who saved me from those mean bullies? Why am I like this? Why did I leave him alone?

And the person who owned my heart but time passed and everything changed. He hates me and I know that. He doesn't want me. He doesn't want to see me and most of all, he successfully have forgotten me.

How heartless I am? What if he's doing something good for me but he stayed humble? What if he still cares about me but afraid to get pushed away by me? What if he still loves me? But am I just in my fantasies?

Is this just a story that's just written by accident?

Or is God making a way to get us back together?

But no, my real life is starting its first chapter. I have a boyfriend and I'm about to say yes. I'm also about to marry him. Vernon and I talked about this. And we can't wait to be proud parents.

I'm getting old and my parents told me that I have to marry someone I truly love. I can't die a virgin.

But my dreamy atmosphere was blown by a smoky one. I heard people screaming and girls gasping, loud clinking of their heels and a loud yell. A yell that seemed familiar for me.

Because of my curiosity I got to my feet to check the madness that is happening somewhere.

"Hey, what's happening? Why are people running?" I asked quickly on an employee I hardly recognized. She was shaking.

"T-There's a fight on the men's bathroom, I don't know who are fighting but —"

"Okay thanks!" I cut her mid-sentence, being rude. I wanted to see the fight because I'm curious.

And when I finally arrived nearly at the men's bathroom, there's a bunch of people already, standing on their tip toes to see.

"Ugh excuse me," I said, squeezing myself through a group of girls. They ignored me.

"Excuse me, I'm the daughter of this company. Let me —"

"BASTARD, YOU PROMISED ME THAT YOU WILL LOVE HER!"

A yell made me shiver to my bones, That voice is familiar. I thought. When I finally squeezed through a bunch of bad odored people, I can now see the scene that made my jaw drop.

"NO! YOU'RE WRONG, WE WEREN'T DOING ANYTHING SUSPICIOUS."

"YOU MOTHER — STATE THE OBVIOUS! YOU'LL HURT JIYEON! SHE'S A PRECIOUS THING THAT NO MAN SHOULD HURT HER! DON'T YOU GET IT? I LET YOU HAVE HER BECAUSE SHE LOVES YOU AND SHE'S ALSO HAPPY TO HAVE YOU! I EVEN SACRIFICED THAT SO THAT SHE CAN BE HAPPY AND HOW HURTFUL IT IS TO KNOW THAT I'VE BEEN THE MOST STUPID PERSON TO LET HER GO FROM ME!"

Tears escaped on my eyes, I wished to have no eyes. But something really broke my heart: Vernon, who is topless with a woman, who is half naked. And most of all, Jimin.

I've never seen Jimin be so furious. His pale skin turned scarlet but his knuckles stayed white.

And his words punctured a hole on my heart.

"SHE LOVES YOU VERNON, HOW COULD YOU!?"

"F OFF JIMIN, YOU HAVE NO BUSINESS AROUND HERE. I'M SICK AND TIRED OF JIYEON."

"W-What's h-happening?" I asked, between sobs. They all looked shaken and turned their heads toward me. Jimin let go of Vernon after pinning him violently on the wall.

"Jiyeon? What are you doing here?" asked Vernon nervously, wiping off the blood on his upper lip. I ran towards him and slapped him on the face hard.

"HOW COULD YOU!? HOW COULD YOU!?" I yelled, continued on punching him all over his body causing him to back out.

"What's this? Vernon, you come to my office now! And Mr Park, thank you for reporting me this urgently and also *dad does something, gesturing random gestures on his hands at Jimin*"

I was madly furious at dad for ignoring me, he just ignored his daughter that is full of hurt. And so I ran as fast as I can away from the building.

"JIYEON!"

I ignored and continued on running away while crying even though that the sun is setting on the horizon.

"JIYEON!!"

I dropped to my knees and cried, How could he? How could Vernon tricked me like that? Why did he want to hurt my feelings?

But a gentle touch made me flinch.

"Don't worry, I'm here." he said, angelic voice that made my heart calmed down. I stood up and ignored the world.

Out of the blue, he pulled me onto a tight hug that made me cry even more. I started to cry my heart out on his shoulder while he's caressing my back.

"I'm sorry Jiyeon,"

"I shouldn't have let you go,"

"I shouldn't be such a coward,"

"I should've loved you."

His words made my body tingle. My arms tightened around his neck, not tight enough to break it of course.

"Jimin, mianhae.."

"I was wrong."

"I'm the idiot."

"Jimin, I need you." I said, breaking the hug to face him. My heart started pounding hard against my chest.

"I know you would." He stated, planting a soft kiss on my forehead.

And now I realized that I'm with the person I truly loved.

Why am I so stupid enough to fall to the wrong person last time?

Jimin, thank you.
