My Downfall | Killers List #3

Diamond Rings

"She seriously has the audacity to say such things? I can't believe her" Yuju said as she rubbed Sowons back.

"Don't agree with me to make me feel better, it's not working" Sowon knew exactly what Yuju was trying to do. She appreciated it but it wasn't helping her at all.

"Well do you want to talk about it? I hear that it helps to talk about your problems" Yuju suggested.

"I just...I loved her. Our love was unimaginable, no one would understand. I just can't fathom why she would do that to me. She promised not to see anyone while I was gone, she promised" Sowons voice began to crack near the end of her sentence.

"Did she tell you why she did it?"

"She was missing my attention. She could've called me, I would've came right back to her" Sowon rested her head on her hands.

"Maybe she didn't want to bother you" Yuju shrugged.

"But she still shouldn't have cheated. I wish she knew that she doesn't bother me at all. I just wish she would've called me!" Sowon suddenly yelled.

"Calm down, Sowon. I know it's hard to talk about. Maybe if you think about it from her perspective then you can understand better" Yuju suggested. She wasn't sure what else to do or say.

"Think about it from her perspective? I can't. I don't know how" Sowon gave her a troubled look.

"Well don't you know what it's like to miss her? What do you do when you miss her?" asked Yuju.

"I don't know. I'm usually always with her. I've missed her a lot lately though. I guess I...listen to music or try to distract myself when she's away"

"Well people do things differently when they miss someone. This is just what Eunha decided to do, that is no excuse though. I'm sure she could've done something else"

"Are you saying that she'll cheat on me again when I'm gone? If there's still a chance between us..." Sowon looked up at Yuju for an answer.

"I...no? I mean I don't think she will ever do it again now that she knows how miserable it makes the both of you" Yuju wasn't sure how to answer the question right. Sometimes Sowon mixed words around to create a different meaning.

"So what do I do now?"

"That's for you and Eunha to decide" Yuju patted Sowons back as she stood up.

"I'm going to give you and Eunha some time to talk" Yuju gave a sad smile and left Sowon sitting alone on her bed.

"You can go in now, I know you've been waiting" Yuju said once she opened the door. She assumed Eunha would be right outside the door listening the whole time and to her surprise she was actually right for once.

"Hey Sowon" Eunha said quietly and awkwardly waved her hand. She then sat on the bed next to Sowon.

"What do you want?" Sowon looked away and scoffed.

"Look at me and let's talk like the grown up adults that we are" Eunha was becoming annoyed with Sowons little pity party.

"A grown up adult wouldn't cheat" Sowon rolled her eyes as she turned to look at Eunha.

"Will you just fucking listen to me for once without saying something stupid? You were fine at lunch, what happened to you since then?" Eunha looked Sowon up and down like she was some kind of monster.

"Nothing, why? I'm perfectly fine" Sowon smiled but it faded so quickly.

"Can you ever be serious? Tell me what's wrong. I know, I'm a horrible person. I'm sorry, just forgive me please. That's all I'm asking for. We don't have to be friends, we don't have to be anything, just please say you forgive me" Eunha begged. She was exhausted from trying to get Sowon to forgive her. She wanted it to end. She wanted to be happy.

"I can't say I forgive you when I don't. How do you expect me to forgive you? You're asking for too much"

"Sowon please listen to me. I'm sorry, you have no idea how sorry I am. I've cried countless of times. You'd never understand the pain when you walked out that door and left me for good. I wish you'd-"

"Excuse me but do you think you're hurting more than I am? Imagine if you walked in on me having sex with someone else in your own damn house!" Sowon stood up and slapped Eunha. Eunha didn't fight back. She knew Sowon was right.

"Sowon I apologize. You know I'm sorry just admit it. I'm sorry for what you had to see that night. I'm sorry for everything I've done to you" Eunha simply got down on her knees and looked up at Sowon, her hands in praying position.

"You're not sorry. You just want me to come to your wedding! Well guess what, I'm not going! Maybe I'll even kill your damn fiancé before your wedding! Don't think I won't because I will!" Sowon threatened. Eunha didn't imagine that it would get this chaotic and out of hand.

"Sowon don't say that" Eunha stood up so she could look her in the eyes. "I won't sit here and listen to you talk about me and my fiancé. You leave him out of this" Eunha had an angry look in her eyes.

"Leave him out of this? You and him are what caused this"

"He doesn't even know who you are Sowon!"

"Are you fucking kidding me?! He sleeps with my girlfriend and doesn't even know who her other lover is?! What kind of bullshit is this?!" Sowon tightened her fist. She didn't know anything about the guy and she hated his guts, she had every right to hate him though.

"I'm not your girlfriend anymore!" Eunha pushed her.

"You're right! Because I never got to give you this!" Sowon threw a diamond ring at Eunha that she grabbed off her desk.

"A...ring?" Eunha looked at the shiny object in disbelief.

"I hope you like it" Sowon stormed out of the room, smiling when she heard Eunha crying.
