Mina's POV

What should i say in this situation?! 

Okay, Mina, calm down and think calmly.

I took a deep breathing and said as calm as i can be, "You guys are still my friends. Whatever you said, it does make sense. I will be honest with you. I have feelings for Sung-oppa. You guys and him are equally important to me.". 

The others looked shocked, except for Tzuyu, and leave their mouths hanging open. 

"Wow, what wise words i heard coming out from that mouth of yours." Tzuyu said and i turned to glare at him but he just stared at me with cold eyes.

Well, it hurts that the fact Tzuyu and i are not friends anymore and for some reason, i could feel my chest tighten in pain the moment Tzuyu declared to me that we're not friends anymore...

Everyone looked at Tzuyu blankly while Tzuyu also stared back at them blankly too. 

Suddenly, Jeongyeon-oppa pull Tzuyu up, making him stand up, and then pulled Tzuyu's ear on one side, dragging him to the kitchen to have their private talk, i guess. The other members and i just stared at the 2 guys in the kitchen, curious of what they are talking about but one strange thing, the other guys here doesn't even look curious. Instead, they look worried for i don't know who, but maybe one of the 2. 

Tzuyu's POV

"Hyung, my ear hurts!" I shouted and Jeong-hyung let go of my ear and i rub my ear to ease the pain. 

"YAH! How can you be calm in this situation?!" -Jeong-hyung shouted angrily at me.

"What do you mean by that?" -Me, confused

"I mean, didn't you hear what Mina said?!" -Jeong-hyung, annoyed and angry

"Yeah, i heard it. What about it, hyung?" -Me, being calm

"OH MY GOSH! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU ARE SO CALM!" -Jeong-hyung , with a bit louder voice

"I mean, Mina likes that guy! And you, who likes Mina, don't feel hurt or anything?!" -Jeong-hyung, volume of his voice went back to normal

"YES, I DO! BUT WHAT CAN I DO?! I ARLEADY TOLD YOU, HYUNG! I'M GIVING UP ON HER! I ALREADY KNEW THE SAME THING WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN! PLUS, WE ARE NOT EVEN FRIENDS ANYMORE, SO WHY I SHOULD I CARE WHO SHE LIKES, HUH?!" -ME

"THEN WE SHOULD AT LEAST HAVE STOPPED HER FROM HANGING OUT WITH HIM!" -Jeong-hyung

"HYUNG, LOOK, EVEN IF WE TRY TO STOP, SOONER OR LATER, SHE WILL STILL END UP HAVING FEELINGS FOR THAT GUY!!" -ME

"ARGH! COME ON, TZUYU! YOU SHOULD TRY TO WIN HER HEART INSTEAD OF JUST LETTING THAT GUY WIN HER HEART WITHOUT YOU DOING ANYTHING!" -Jeong-hyung

"HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW HOW TO WIN A GIRL'S HEART?! HUH, HYUNG?!" -ME

"BUT YOU WON YOUR EX-GIRLFRIEND'S HEART BEFORE!" -JEONG-HYUNG

"HYUNG, I NEVER DO ANYTHING TO WIN HER HEART! I'M JUST BEING MY USUAL SELF WITH HER! I NEVER EVEN DO ANYTHING IN THE FIRST PLACE TO WIN HER HEART!" -ME

"BUT I'M SURE YOU DON'T WANT WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR EX TO BE HAPPENING TO MINA, RIGHT?!" -JEONG-HYUNG

"SO?! WHAT IF IT HAPPENED AGAIN?! SHE'S NOT MINE IN THE FIRST PLACE! WHY SHOULD I CARE ABOUT SAVING HER LIKE HOW I SAVED MY EX, HUH?! IN THE END, DID YOU EVEN SEE WHAT HAPPENED TO MY EX, HYUNGS' EX AND YOUR EX?! HUH?!?!" -ME

"ANYWAY, THE SAME THING IS ALREADY HAPPENING AND I ALREADY SAID THIS BEFORE! I WOULD NOT BOTHER MYSELF, SAVING SOMEONE WHO IS NOT EVEN MY FRIEND!" -ME

"COME ON, TZUYU! AT LEAST SHE'S MY FRIEND, HYUNGS' FRIEND!" -JEONG-HYUNG

"SO?! YOUR FRIEND BUT NOT MINE! SINCE SHE'S YOUR FRIEND THEN GO AHEAD AND SAVE HER THEN!" -ME

"TZUYU, WE SHOULD ---" -JEONG-HYUNG

"Tzuyu, are you really not going to save Mina-noona?" -Dahyung

"YES, I'M REALLY NOT! I SAID IT AND I MEANT IT!" -ME

"THEN WHY YOU TELL OUR MEN TO PROTECT HER?!" -JEONG-HYUNG

"WHY?! IT'S OUR DUTY TO PROTECT OUR FRIENDS BECAUSE SHE'S HYUNGS' FRIEND!" -ME

"SEE?! YOU ARE STILL TRYING TO PROTECT HER HERE! STOP DENYING, TZUYU!" -JEONG-HYUNG

"FINE, I ADMIT BUT I WON'T COME TO HER RESCUE! SHE'S NOT WORTH MY ENERGY FOR ME TO SAVE HER! OKAY?!?!" -ME

"OKAY! YOU GUYS, JUST STOP SHOUTING AT ONE ANOTHER! THE GIRLS ARE LOOKING AT YOU TWO!" -DAHYUNG

Jeong-hyung and i stopped shouting at one another and looked at the living room to see the girls, looking at us. Chae-hyung and Yujin looking worried. 

Jeong-hyung and i then looked at each other and nodded to each other, telling one each other that we are cool with one another. We then walked back to the living room with Dahyung walking behind us and we sit back down on where we were sitting earlier. 

-----------

Night comes and we are getting ready to go to bed. The girls sleeping in our room while we, guys, sleep in the living room. 

I sit on the couch, looking with my head down, my eyes staring blankly at the floor of the living room and my heart getting hurt from what Mina-noona said. "I have feelings for Sung-oppa."

Just remembering that line, my heart aches in pain and i grab my chest tightly. I felt someone comforting me on my back and i looked up to my side to see Jeong-hyung, smiling at me while comforting me on my back. 

"I knew you are hurt. Guess you have your 2nd heartbreak, Tzuyu." Jeong-hyung said softly and i just pulled him into a hug and hug him tightly. Me, not wanting to cry because guys don't cry but in the, my tears flow out of my eyes, dripping down my face and end up wetting Jeong-hyung's shirt. 

Dahyun's POV

I walked into the living room to see Jeong-hyung and Tzuyu hugging on the couch and i approached them. Jeong-hyung saw me and i was about to say something but he put his finger on his lips, telling me to keep quiet and i kept my mouth shut. He then used his hands to gesture to me, telling me that Tzuyu's heart broke and he was crying while hugging Jeong-hyung but now, Tzuyu fall asleep in his embrace. 

Woah...as i expected, Tzuyu really did get his heartbreak even though he's trying to give up on Mina-noona. Guess feelings won't fade away so easily...
