i saw yujin walking alone. i actually find it hard to talk to her again, after the incident last day.

i composed myself as i walk passed her, then stopped in front of her way.

"hi yujin! why are you alone?" she looked at me and i saw her puffy eyes.

i'm about to ask her what happened pero hindi niya ako pinansin at nagtuloy-tuloy sa paglakad.

sinubukan kong sundan si yujin, at bigla lang siyang tumayo sa isang gilid. i looked where she's staring at.

i saw minju, with that chaewon. they looked sweet together actually. kung hindi lang ako galit kay chaewon malamang e ishiship ko na 'tong dalawang kim na 'to.

i heard someone sob. pagtingin ko sa unahan ko, i saw yujin's tears slowly falling.

uhm, what is happening?

pumunta ako sa tapat niya. kinuha ko ang panyo sa bulsa ko at ibinigay sa kaniya.

"you looked very sad, ahn. what happened?" i already expected that she won't answer me.

we just stared at the two kims.

why is she staring at them? does she have a crush on chaewon or minju- stupid shit. bakit ngayon ko lang naisip 'to?

"you have a crush on minju don't you?" tinignan ko siyang mabuti. yujin slowly nodded.

"then why the hell are you crying?" pinunasan niya muna ang mga luha niya bago sumagot.

gosh. my question sounds so stupid. of course iiyak siya dahil nasasaktan! i hate this stupid mind of mine.

"its just that, i didn't have the chance to tell her what i actually feel about her." she looked at me.

"i just k-knew something. pinili ko na lang manahimik dahil alam kong talo pa rin ako," she sadly smiled.

". . . pinili kong manahimik dahil kasama ka sa dahilan kung bakit siya nasasaktan."

i didn't heard what she said on the last part.

"you tried naman 'di ba? at least she felt that she was loved by someone from afar. even if she doesn't know that that person is you," for the first time, i smiled genuinely.

i want yujin to cheer up, 'cause she doesn't deserve to feel unloved. i still care for this pup.

"gusto mo ba iparesbak natin si chaewon?" i joked. yujin became silent.

gosh. hollow blocks please lamunin niyo 'ko.

"d-did you j-just said that?!" she looked at me in horror.

okay sige. 'wag kang maniwalang joke lang 'yon. nahihiya na ako dito bwisit.

she hit my arms then she started to laugh, even though there are still tears escaping in her eyes.

i just made her happy. i hope she's still be smiling or laughing even if i bring pain in her.

sorry yujin. you deserve all the love in this world, but i'm ruining it. you doesn't deserve to be hurt, but i'm doing it. i'll bring pain to you, even if you already suffered enough.

"thank you wonyoung. even if i'm hurt, you still managed to make me happy," she smiled.

"i hope we're always like this." she stood up.

i hope so.
