My tea was getting cold, just like the emotions I had. My friends could understand my pain and why it was happening. My face was blank though, it showed a stone hard girl. I need to keep my distance from him from now on. I don't want to get attached and have feelings for him again. Ignore his calls and texts. Avoid him in class and the hallways. Not speak to him whenever I see him in public next time. I know his new girlfriend will take up a lot of his time. That's how she treated her other boyfriends, she'll treat him the same way. But she hated seeing me and him walk and talk together, her nose would scrunch up and eyes would be cold as ice. But now she has in the palm of her hand. And she'll do anything to keep us apart. I know it.

"Wendy, drink your tea it's getting cold!" Milo said, pouting as I continued to twirl my spoon in it.

"If it makes you feel better, we don't approve of the relationship either..." Joony said, brushing her tan short hair behind her ear. But still, not a word comes out.

"Wendy...please say something...." Teyone whimpered, sighing at how quiet I was. I didn't say anything for a purpose, and that was because if I even said a word, I will burst out in tears.

"Hmm...wanna get some ice cream? Maybe that will cheer you up?" Lenya asked, having me nod my head in response.

"Alright lets go" She said, getting up as we all walked towards our cars. I got into Teyone's car this time, still feeling my heart crushing with every beat it takes. What if she prevents him from auditioning? Or stops him from trying to come to see me make it into finals for ice skating? I do want him to be happy always, but I never thought my small feelings for him would turn into jealousy. But my mind reminds all the times where he would show signs of some mutual feelings. But I guess it was just him being friendly. Teyone noticed my distracted mind again. At every red light, she turn to see me doze off into my own thoughts. My fists crushing this mental feeling of this dire feeling, wanting to beat it up at a pulsing rate.

"Wendy...you know there are plenty of other guys...." Teyone mumbled softly, being careful with her words.

"Like who? No one compares to Jungkook's perfection...." Did I really just say that?

"Well....would you like us to set you up with someone-"

"Not gonna happen" She sighed, my anguish words proving my point enough.

"Well lets just do as much stuff for the rest of the day to distract you yeah?" I nodded, not trusting my anger to speak for me. We arrived at the ice cream shop.  School went by very slowly. The universe saw this coming and decided to make this happen. So much for confidence right? We gathered near the cashier to order our cones. My only fear is if what if I see Jungkook out in public? I am grateful to have such close girl friends. Without them, there's no way I would be able to get through this by myself. We grabbed our cones, Milo paid and we all sat down near the window. They all could still tell that I was broken hearted.

"Come on Wendy...we even got you your favorite kind of ice cream..." Kali pouted, making me crack a tiny smile. I scooped up a little bit into my mouth, enjoying the taste of chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream. My facial expression not changing, like it was frozen. I didn't think having him date someone would have this much of an affect on me. And for the first time in hours, I decided to speak.

"What should I do now? Everything about him chases after me..." My friends stared at me in shock and sadness. Fifty percent pity towards me and fifty percent anger towards Jungkook. I didn't want to bring all these awful feelings upon them.

"Um...is a new crush for you possible?-" 

"No..." I said, cutting of Milo's sentence short.

"Ok...how about we set you up with someone?" Joony asked, her voice careful.

"No thanks.....no guy would wanna be with me anyway..." My friends felt the atmosphere thicken with depression. Panicked eyes collided and spoke with urgency. First day of school and I'm already hating it.

"Here, lets take you home ok?" Milo offered, I nodded in a reply. Lenya got in the driver's seat and I sat in the passenger side. My chin resting on my hand as I watch each building pass by. But I'm still crushed, almost to the point of being numb to the feeling. My attention distracted by my phone lighting up.

Jungkook:

Hey! Wanna hang out after school?

3:45 PM

Jungkook:

Wendy? You there?"

3:56 PM

Jungkook:

I would like you to meet my new girlfriend....but I'll see you tomorrow then...

4:04 PM

Not in a million years will I reply to him. I don't want to push him away, but now that he has a girlfriend what reason does he need me for? I'm scared that I'll only get in the way.
