Renjun

"I don't.."

This can't be real. Tell me this is not happening.

I pulled my hair and threw the book I was reading in frustration. I heard Kai hyung knock on the door.

"Come in.." I said.

"Jun, you okay?" He asked.

I sat up on my bed and stared at him in disbelief. "Do I look like I'm okay, hyung?" I asked back. He smirked and sat beside me.

"What happened with you and Nako?" He asked. "I told her I still love her...She told me she doesn't love me anymore.." I sighed.

"We can't force things, Jun. A heart that loves too much gets tired too." Kai hyung said. He's right. I took her for granted.

Before closing the door Kai hyung said something that gave me hope. "But if you really love her..why don't you try and fight for her? Prove her that you still deserve her."

—•—•—•—

"Oh, how can I help you?" Mina asked. "Good morning, I'm Huang Renjun." I said introducing myself. "You must be Momo noona's sister, Is Nako there?" I asked.

She scanned my face before nodding. "You're that dumbass jerk huh? She's inside." Okay, that hurts. "I better get going." She added before passing me leaving the gate open.

What? So do I get in or what? Is that a yes?

"Don't break anything." Mina said lowering the car window. "Yes, Drive safely." I said bowing. I entered the house when she left.

When I opened the door Nako went out of the bathroom with only a towel wrapped around her. "What the fuck—" She said covering her chest.

I looked away, "I'm sorry, I didn't know!" I said.

"Jerk! You're trespassing!" She shouted throwing her slippers.

"I'm not. I asked for Mina noona's permission." I said still looking away. "Are you free today? Let's go out?" I asked.

Nako gave me the silent treatment for three minutes. Six minutes passed by and still silent..Ten..Fifteen..

I slowly looked at her and she was nowhere to be seen. What the hell?

I looked around the house and she was nowhere to be seen. Until I heard a door opening.

"So where are we going?"

—•—•—•—

"One for you and one for me." I said handing her the strawberry ice cream. "Thanks!" She said. We ate our ice creams in silence. Awkward as fuck.

"Remember when you used to sneak in my house?" Nako asked. I almost choked on the ice cream I was eating. "We would eat strawberries and talk about our future.." I added.

Nako laughed and I stared at her. I missed this. I missed her laugh. I missed her.

"I miss those times." Nako said looking back at me. I badly want to ask if she misses me too.

"I miss you, Renjun."

"You know..We can still go back—"

"We can't." Nako said cutting me off.

"Why.." I asked.

"Because our story is already finished."
