Forget You

• Day 10 ♡

"Please, Koeun. Don't do this." beep

"I know you're there, Koeun-ah. Please just talk to me." beep

"Koeun-ah..." beep

It's been only a week since you left without notice. Koeun-ah, is this what you wanted?

I can't focus on my studies because of this. I locked myself in my room the past couple of days now, I have been skipping classes, it was just too much for me to handle.

I tried dialing her number again, hoping that she would answer. But to no avail. It's been days but it seems like she's gone for a year now. What is this agony?

"Mark, I'm sorry."

No. You can't just leave without any explanation, Koeun-ah.

"Please let me go."

Was it because I was too busy? Was it because of how I was also pressuring you to do well? Was it because you're jealous of the girls surrounding me in campus? I just needed to know why you left all of a sudden.

"Mark, are you in here?" I heard a knock on my door, probably Yeri, that made me wake up from my daydream. I throw my phone away in annoyance as I walk to the door to open it.

"So..."

"Nothing." She answer, her eyes are red, was  she crying too? She did lost her bestfriend.

I sighed and let her inside, I slumped myself on the couch as I clutch on my phone and throw a pillow at Yeri who was sitting on bed.

"Even her mom is not answering my calls."

I sighed. What happened? What did I miss? We were doing good. We were happy.

I couldn't help but stare at my phone's wallpaper. It was the photo taken by Lucas, we were preparing for the school festival's concert backstage. I remembered how nervous everyone is including me but Koeun assured everyone that it will be alright.

She has always been so assuring and kind. Especially to the younger students. She's like a mother, as Lucas mentioned before.

I bit the bottom of lips as I fight the urge to cry again.

"Mark.." Yeri called, I looked up at her and saw her crying. "I'm sorry."

I stood up and hugged her, I sighed and pat her head as she cried on my shoulder.

"I should be the one saying sorry. If it wasn't for me then maybe she would still be here with us."

"You don't know that, Mark. Maybe she has other reasons-"

"Like what?" Yeri was speechless. She was her bestfriend, and even she is clueless as to why the girl suddenly disappeared. "She left because I pushed her."

Yeri was wiping her tears as she was just waiting for me to continue.

"I pressured her into my dreams. I pressured her to do good in studying, into our future. I pushed her to the limit that it was all too much for her." My voice crack, I was the one crying this time.

That was the only possible reason I can think of. She left because of my expectations.

Yeri hugged me and comfort me by rubbing her hands on my back.

"It was because of me." I murmured as I heard her shush me. Yeri was trying her best to console me but I can only feel the pain. I was trying to catch my breathe but tears are still flowing.

Koeun-ah, I'm sorry. Please come back.
