"hey, youngjae!!" jaebum raised his voice at me since the music in the bar is very loud.

"what's up, youngjae?" mark told me in english as soon as i sit next to him. they both had a smile on their faces until jaebum pulled a disgusted expression.

"listen, youngjae," jaebum told me as he moved to a chair right beside me, mark leaning towards us so he can hear us. "i swear to you eunyoung was right here."

"yeah, she was flirting with some guy. i overheard her saying..interesting things since i assume she's slightly drunk." mark added.

i started to get nervous as i was hearing them about eunyoung. i have never actually saw her to a bar or a party; even before we even started dating.

nor did she tell me about it. it was possibly because i hate drinking. i was always afraid of what would happen if i ever became drunk.

"where is she now?" i told them.

"i honestly don't know. she left somewhere around the building as soon as you got here." mark told me as he's drinking a sip of his beer.

"are you gonna wait and find her here?" jaebum asked me after what seemed like a few moments.

i have no other choice but to wait. i already drove all the way over here because of them, and i really don't feel like moving anywhere. "i guess so."

"alright-!!"

"and no, i'm not going to drink." i told them.

mark then laughed, but of course, he was disappointed because he wanted me to join them. "c'mon youngjae! just a few drinks!"

"in your dreams, i only came here because i became curious about eunyoung!"

"as you wish.~" mark told me in a sarcastic tone.

[...]

it's been about half an hour and i see no sign of eunyoung.

i was getting slightly impatient, and i was getting ready to leave. jaebum was getting pretty drunk, which meant that mark has to take care of him as he takes him back to our house later.

"jaebum, are you sure she's still here?!" i asked him as he was still sipping his drink.

"yes! i never saw her leave the building!" he told me as he was slurring his words.

he raised his pointer finger and of course, he points at me. "youngjae, i'm telling you. she may be cheating on you. i hate jumping to conclusions, but that's what i'm thinking right now."

i hate jumping to conclusions too, but maybe he was hallucinating. she hasn't been answering my texts, which i thought she was sleeping.

but he and mark told me she was in front of them.

eunyoung has never met my friends before but they know what she looks like since i usually talk about her almost all the time.

i had enough and i decided to tell jaebum and mark that i'm leaving the building. "i'm done, she's not even here."

"alright man. but i'm telling you, she was right here! i'm being honest!" mark said to me. i don't know if he really is lying or not because usually he wouldn't lie to me like that.

"but i don't see her though! i'm leaving." i told them as i turned around to leave the bar.

maybe she has seen me and she was hiding, i may not even know.
