First Love

Mina;

"You snake! I knew you were a bitch since the beginning!" Jeon Seulbi yelled in my face, countless tears pouring down her cheeks.

My eyes widened, "Seulbi? Why're you crying? Are you okay?"

It was obvious in the moment that I was a softie for vulnerable people. Especially since it was Seulbi, I couldn't help but portray concern for her.

"You bitch! I can't believe you!" She yelled again, voice cracking due to her emotional breakdown.

"Are you okay? Please tell me what-"

"Shut up! You stole everyone away from. From the beginning, I thought you were my friend. Why'd you have to do this to me?" Seulbi cut me off, simply sobbing in front of me now, earning a few curious glances from students.

"Do what to you? Who did I take away fro-"

This time I was interrupted by a hard slap across the face. I stood there with my head slightly tilting to the left by the movement, trying to process the current information. Once Seulbi notices my shocked state, she took that as her queue to continue.

"You listen to me, you asshole. Because of you, Jimin left me. He wasn't interested in me anymore, since he found you! Now, Taehyung's gonna leave me too, and it's all because of you!"

"Seulbi..." I whispered softly and vulnerably, having unsatisfying tears build up at the edge of my eyes.

I wasn't going to cry because I felt sorry for her, but rather because she blamed me ruthlessly for something I didn't commit to.

It was to the point where sadness engulfed me, but instead I was angry and frustrated by how I can't explain my perspective of the situation.

Instead of fighting back, I slumped my figure and continued to listen to Seulbi rant furiously at me.

It hurts to be blamed but I wasn't given the chance to respond to anything she said. I figured keeping silent and listening was the best way to cooperate with her emotional breakdown.

She aggressively wiped her tears with the back of her hand and looked at me with a broken expression, "Jimin was my first love, Mina. You knew how fucking hurt I was!"

I widened my eyes, upon hearing that, "Jimin?"

"We never dated, but we never denied that we liked each other either. I lied about how he left me to go study abroad, I was too ashamed to tell you that he actually took interest in you. Because of that, we grew further apart and never had the chance to get together."

Now that I know the reason of her current state, I can't help but want to explain my perspective.

The anger was boiling inside me and I couldn't contain myself anymore. Despite her being in an extremely vulnerable state, I still needed her to know that I wasn't at fault.

"So what if he took interest in me, I can't control or change his feelings. I'm not at fault in this situation, you can't just come here and lash your anger and insecurities at me." I say as the tears finally fell from my eyes. I didn't bother to wipe my cheeks because I was too focused on the current event.

Seulbi looked at me again and angrily exclaimed, "you're always the innocent girl! You're always the pretty, talented, and cool girl that all the guys fall for. Why can't I be that girl?"
