 『 WHY 』

Kim Yeseul inserts the coins into the vending machine and presses a button for coffee and she weakly inserts more coins to get the soft drink for her roommate.

When she can hears the sound of something dropping inside the machine, she slowly bents down and takes her coffee first. She immediately opens the can and takes a sip of it as her throat feels dry. After drinks almost half of the coffee she finally reaches another can that still remain and returns back to her room.

The girl still renders, almost speechless by what she just received from Woojin. She currently can't show any expression and her steps becomes weak as she keeps daydreaming.

Don't know who to believe and what should she do next, her mind goes blank out of sudden. And her heart, it aches more but she doesn't sure why. It is because she can't believe that Jinyoung, the guy that she seriously believe actually did something bad to her brother or she can't accept that one of the murderer might can be one of Yeseung's close friends itself.

"Yeseung-ah, why did you befriend with people like them.." she suddenly mumbles emotionally and leans against the wall next to the door of her room.

She can't enter the room with her current mind and feels because she doesn't know how to pretend to be okay in front of Jihoon, a stranger that she just gets to know.

"Why? What did you ever do that you have to deserve this?" She keeps mumbling alone frustratedly.

Her legs start to feel weak and she automatically makes herself sit down. She looks up to the ceiling and close her eyes tightly while biting her lips strongly, she tries her best not to drop any tears.

"What are you doing?" Someone suddenly asks out of nowhere.

Yeseul startles at the sudden appearance and her body automatically reacts to it. She looks at the guy blankly who already sitting in front of her, he stares at her face closely with his cheeky smile. Yeseul puzzles by it and freezes at the same place meanwhile the guy still calmly looks at her with his smile that doesn't go away.

"I'm asking, what are you doing?" He repeats while moving closer towards her.

Yeseul quickly stands up and gulps nervously. "O-oh Jihoon! Y-you startles me" She stutters while chuckling awkwardly.

Jihoon finally stands up properly and face her without saying anything, he still waiting for her to answer him first. "Oh that's right, here your coke" Yeseul hands over the soft drink that she has been holding it with her for the whole time.

"Thank you," he says while smiling brightly and takes the soft drink away from her hand.

While the boy opening the can, Yeseul notices that he didn't come out from the room as the door still being locked perfectly. "Where did you come from?" Yeseul asks confusedly. "I was searching for you," He immediately replies while calmly drinks his favorite soft drink. "This is the taste~" Jihoon naturally frowns as he can taste the fizziness.

"Searching for me?" Yeseul asks innocently. Jihoon looks at her and nods softly, "I thought you open soft drink factory." He slightly smirk jokingly and takes another sip of his drink. "But why?" Yeseul keep asking makes Jihoon pauses for awhile and blinks his eyes nervously.

"You took a lot of time didn't you? I was...t-thirsty" He stutters while thinking about anything to say next.

"And I need to meet someone,"

"You should take a bath, you smells bad"

He suddenly becomes talkative and slightly coughs awkwardly in the middle.

"I'm going" He adds and casually walks away.

"B-but Jihoon wait!" Yeseul suddenly calls his name makes him turns around to look at her. "What's more? I'm busy" He asks while raising his eyebrows. "Key.....I don't bring key with me" Yeseul cowardly explains and scratches her head embarrassedly.

"Aigoo....you seriously need a lot of care" Jihoon murmurs like an ahjumma and walks towards her back. "You should be thankful that I am here" He adds and then he suddenly feels surprise at himself by what he just said. Jihoon nervously takes a glance at her to see her reaction and gladly she looks blank like always.

"You better take a bath before I come back" He suddenly says while opening the door for her and then he takes her right hand to put the key on it.

"I'm going" He adds and finally walks away.

Jihoon walks to the empty lobby and sits on a chair while letting out a soft sigh. He naturally puts his drink that he brings with him on the table and makes himself comfortable.

He's not meeting anyone, it's just his excuse to escape. He aware that Yeseul feels uncomfortable when he was showering. So he gives her some space to take the bath comfortably without him around.

"Until when should I do this,"

"What kind of excuse I have to use next.." He mumbles alone.
