Haneul had slowly taking control over her life. Her therapies with Dr.Sejin has finally been paying off. She could feel light as breeze as no amount of emotional baggage was holding her down.

She picked up new hobbies like painting and even goes out in the sun more often much to yoonji's dismay.

Yoonji supports everything and anything except going out in the sun for cycling. But the promise of treats often lures her into accompanying her friend in the sun.

Her boyfriend feeling threatened is a lot more nicer to her. Much to Haneul's surprise but then she knew who he was and how poisonous his acts were and brushed it off.

She loved herself. She promised herself she wouldn't throw away herself just like that. She wouldn't let anyone trample over her again.

Everything took a lighter turn and decided today was the day she was going to call off her relationship.

She took her phone and punched in her boyfriend's number. The heavy feeling returned. The thought of talking to him or any form of communicating was too much for her.

She took a deep breath and called the number. There was a ringing sound and faint hello that followed it.

She asked him to meet up at a cafe near her home. She cut the call soon after.

At the cafe. There were a lot of chatter, the smell of bread and coffee made her welcomed. She quietly waited for her latte and her boyfriend. As time ticked past her. She had surge of emotions.

This is what brink of freedom feels like she realized.

He met up soon after. There was an awkward pleasantries exchanged, something that wasn't required in this context. Haneul took a deep breath and said let's break up

The words rang in his ear. He didn't realise what had happened. It's like time froze and everything around him was more normal than ever.

He made vain attempts to convince her saying that she was overthinking this , reminded her of the promises they made. Love that they shared. .

It all fell into deaf ears . She stood up and said firmly, "I think we are done here ."

She made her way out of the cafe and to her home.

He followed her close behind. She turned around and there he was and still trying to convince her. There was no apology from him but still trying to convince she is making a bad move.

She felt sick and confronted him. Things escalated like they always did and then finally he grabbed her hair. She closed her eyes and let the pain sink in . Then she decided to break free and pushed him away and punched him for defence.

She felt people approaching to calm the fight but then she didn't need to have help. They all calmly left the place as Haneul made her way to her home
