Love Is A Tricky Thing || i.jaebum

part xxvii

"jae...i...i saw it happen. i didn't mean to, but i did."

i don't know why, but it was me who started crying.

"i saw... i saw you cry, and it hurt me so much to see you in pain and i just, i don't know... i just want you to know that you deserve all there is in the world to give and if i could i would give it all to you."

he stared at me, speechless.

"you deserve so much better than a rejection, you deserve someone who truly loves you and can devote herself to you. you don't deserve any less. you're such a good person. you don't deserve this."

"yeah," he said quietly, "but it still happened."

i gazed at him sadly. then i gave him a hug.

"don't worry, jaebum. you'll be okay. i promise."
