~Hyunjin~

I woke up at nine in the morning feeling mixed emotions. Sadness because Seungmin didn't show up last night. Heartache because Seungmin must really hate me if he stood me up. Confusion because of my encounter with Yujin and worry because of Seungmin telling Jisung that he went to come see me but he never came.

I needed answers so I grabbed my phone and texted Jisung again.

hyunjin: jisung, could you please tell seungmin to text me? i need to ask him why he didn't show up last night.

jisung: sure hyunjin, but seungmin actually hasn't come home yet and jeongin's getting worried.

hyunjin: he hasn't come home from last night? where is he?

jisung: i don't know hyunjin, shouldn't you know?

hyunjin: i'm telling you that seungmin didn't show up last night!

jisung: i'm getting worried hyunjin

hyunjin: should we call the cops?

jisung: there's nothing they can do, it hasn't been twenty-four hours.

hyunjin: ok, let me know if you find out anything.

I began to start sweating heavily. Where was Seungmin? I messaged Seungmin, hoping he hasn't blocked me.

hyunjin: seungmin, where are you?

hyunjin: jisung says you came to see me but you didn't show up and now you haven't come home.

hyunjin: please answer me

hyunjin: i love you

~Seungmin~

Confusion pulsed through my head. I had no plan on returning to Hyunjin after last night but after what Yujin said to me, I'm having second thoughts.

*flashback*

After only running for a few minutes, I stopped to catch my breath. I was being worn down by the heartache. I began to cry but I suddenly felt a hand on my shoulder. I quickly turned around to see Yujin.

Her eyes were flowing with tears and her lips were trembling.

"I-I'm sorry Seungmin." She sobbed.

"H-he'll never love me, he only loves you." She spoke.

"B-but-" I protested.

"Seungmin, listen to me. Hyunjin loves you. Don't let me or anyone else get in the way of your love for each other." She told me.

"But, you kissed-" I furrowed my eyebrows.

"It meant nothing, I promise. I only forced him, I saw it as my last opportunity to try and take him away... but it didn't work." She cried.

"Please take care of him." She smiled.

"What about you?" I asked her.

"'I'll be going back to Canada to try and learn from my mistakes." She explained.
