Our Scandal

3༄

POV: Y/N

I quietly watched him as he grabbed his coat off my bed and walked out the door, leaving no goodbyes or simple farewells.

I leaned against the door and messed up my hair out of frustration.

What are you doing y/n? Has the venom finally consumed you all?

After that kiss... did it not mean anything? After all that happened, even if it was for a brief moment... he still chooses to go back to her side no matter what.

"In the end it's all my fault for being intoxicated with such feelings."

I walked towards the empty balcony in search of comfort from the midnight breeze.

"It sure is chilly out here."

I held my shoulders due to the cool breeze that  swayed against my bare legs.

I noticed that the empty silence that surrounded me really added on to the loneliness of this room.

The only sounds that were present were the sounds of the distant cars, and the airplanes that passed by once in a while.

*sigh*

I sat on the very edge of the balcony admiring the city lights that twinkled against my darkened eyes.

I knew for a fact that I'm not suppose to sit here, but it wasn't like I was going to jump off... I didn't have the guts to do so anyways. But it was a possible thought...

"I'm done with you!!!"

"Why?!"

"Because... I found someone better than you!"
"A man that can understand me and love me better than you ever did!!"

"Ok then leave!!"

"Fine!!"

I heard shouting coming from the room 108, which was next to mine.

This brings back memories of the day he left... The day he chose someone else and left me all alone in the darken streets of the night. That was the same day I met Jimin in my drunken state.

*sadly smiles* "I was such a mess that day..."

Tears were threatening to fall, but I held myself together.

That day was the day I almost passed away in silence...

Headlights of a burgundy car.... city lights of an unknown street, and him on my mind, was all that I could possibly remember.

I owe Jimin for pulling me back in time... if not, then I don't know where I would've been right now.

*sobbing*

I turned towards the direction where I heard the couples fighting a while ago.

I saw a man... he was sitting at the edge of his balcony, just like me.

"Why is life like this? What have I done to fall in love with such a cruel person? I've given her my all, yet she decided to turn her head and ignore my sacrifices, in order to use it as an excuse to leave me."
"What a cruel woman."

He spoke the words that I, myself couldn't speak.... words that were only spoken in silence and in grief.

We were in the same shoes... we sacrificed all to be with them, we even gave up our happiness to please them, but in return we got thorns instead of roses.

"Hey, it's no use if you do such a thing..."

"..."
"You-"

"Yes, i heard everything. I feel sorry that we both have to suffer because of others."

"You too?"

"Yeah, but a long time ago."

"But, I have no choice."

"Neither did I."
"I was like you, I still am... but if you do such a thing she wouldn't care. Her ignorance will consume her instead of grief."

He hummed in reply.

I saw how he looked at the night sky in hope to find the answer to his unhappiness, but what he didn't want to notice was that the empty sky would never reply back.

Tears rippled down his face.

I carefully jumped towards his balcony, and gave him a small smile.

*crying* "You don't have to help such a pitiful man..."

"You're not pitiful, you're just hurt and lost."

"I wonder..."

。。。

Who can this man possibly be?
