Enjoy!!

"Hey Rena" I heard the voice shattering my heart, every little thing that happened back then slapped me on my face harshly. I thought for a moment that I flipped the page where all the darkness was kept. But that page needed to be burnt.

"Y-Yuri" I stuttered

"Wont you let me in" she tilted her head "I just need a moment"

"You flew all the way here because you need a moment?" I looked at her with pain arousing in my whole body. Not because I haven't seen here since I came back, not because my family forced me to meet her on daily basis. Not because any other reason except that he was finally having himself back.

She sighed "I won't make it long I promise"

Promise? You are the one speaking about promises?

Back then

"Hey Ren"

"Ohh Hey Hoseok, I haven't seen you around in a while" I smiled as I saw him passing by, it has been around 4 months since I met him and we became friends, close friends.

"Let's go out today after school end"

"Yeah sure, I will tell Yuri to join us" I said and smiled knowing that he already started to like my best friend who I met in middle school and never left my side since then.

"You think she will come though?"

"Of course she will, Hoseok don't forget that the three of us became close long ago, not because you started to like her she will stop seeing you." I sighed. Those were the first words I had with Hoseok when he told me about his feelings towards Yuri; she actually had the same feelings towards him too. Everything was really fine. We all started to hang out together here and then. Until the day came and they actually started dating.

Everything went well for both of them, they were so happy together, at least Hoseok was. Step by step everything turned from pure love as we all thought to continuous suspicion. He never questioned himself whether he loved her or not. The questions were always

"Rena, Do you think I deserve Yuri?"

"Rena, Do you think I can make her happy?"

"Rena, I think I started to annoy her but it's only because I wanted to spend more time with her"

These questions stared to play themselves on repeat. No matter how long I talked no matter how much I told him that he loves her dearly and that he really deserves her. The fact that about 3 years passed and he still kept on asking.

"Would you like to go for a walk Ren?"

"Yeah sure, call Yuri to join us then"

"She said she doesn't feel like going out, and I decided to give her space for some time"

"It's been a long while since we hanged out together Hoseok, I will make it memorable I promise" I tried to loosen the mood he was dragging himself into.

"Yeah please do" he laughed.

We went for a walk in the streets and Hoseok insisted on buying me dinner since I was becoming more ill each day. It was that time when I started to doubt myself.

"We don't have to go anywhere fancy" I said pulling my feet to keep on walking

"There is that new restaurant owned by one of my father's friends let's try it, it servers Italian food. Yuri's favorite" he said with a smile forming on his face but slowly the darkness of the night was absorbed by him, as if remembering her is torturing him now.
