THEA'S POV...
It was painful. Why? Because I once loved him. I once adored him. And I once dreamed to be with him. I was crazy over him. But... I just broke his heart.
I watch him trying to stop his tears from falling. He keeps pursing his lips and blinking his eyes to make the tears go away.
Then he looked up to me and forced a smile, "Why don't we just enjoy the coffee?" He changed the topic by pushing the cup of coffee near me.
I gave him one last look before taking a sip of my coffee, nodding at him.
The night was silent and we didn't bother engaging in any conversation even now that he's driving me home. He was just silent and seemed like he's also avoiding eye contact with me.
Just as we arrived at the mansion, he finally faced me.
"We're here." He said.
"Thank you."
He smiled, "Thank you too."
How can he put up a good fake smile right in front of the person who just rejected him? He's so pretentious yet in a good way.
"I'm sorry for—"
"Stop. Don't do it. Don't apologize." He made me face his palm to stop me.
My brows furrowed at him.
"Just... let me make my feelings known to you. So when you feel like you're not happy anymore, just know that I'm still here. I'm still waiting. I'm still... hoping." He said.
"But I—"
"You don't need to feel sorry. It's my choice for staying. If I'm hurt right now, it's my fault. I chose this, Thea. So let me...just please. Let me stay." He begged with his tears on the verge of falling.
I didn't know what came over me that I slowly nodded at him. It was clearly an act of selfishness so I broke into it again.
"But oppa, never restrict yourself from finding someone. Letting you stay doesn't mean I'm binding you with me. Explore, Oppa." I held his hands.
He smiled back, "That's a tough one but... as you wish."
I smiled back to him, "See you then, Oppa." I said and was about to go out when he suddenly gripped my wrist.
I looked back at him.
"Can I atleast... have one last hug? A tight one?" He asked.
I stared at him, contemplating whether to accept his request or not. I mean, it's just one tight hug and I'm sure he really needs it right.
So I nodded at him, making his lips curved up into a very sincere smile. It didn't took him a second to engulf me in a tight hug.
I gasped at the sudden action but as soon as I felt his warm comforting embrace, I hugged him back. Realizing that I need one right now too.
