The school bell rang and lunch has taken place. Some students were more than glad for school to be over, while most of them were on their way to the cafeteria even a minute before the bell rang.

They really love food... while here I am loving a person I can't have.

I let out a bitter laugh.

For others, lunch is one of the best periods in school. In my case, it's the opposite. Lunch feels like another damn oppurtunity of mine to meet Taehyung, which I never wanted to happen again.

As much as I love food, I can't seem to enjoy it more often now ever since he came and started to change the way I view everything.

"Ouch!" I alertly groaned because someone flicked my forehead.

It was Daniel.

"What was that for?" I said angrily.

"Chill. You seem to be so stressed. Is there something bothering you lately?" He asked.

"Stop acting like you care. Plus, It's not your buissness to mind anyways."

"Who says I don't care?" My heart softened at what he said. So... he does care?

That's when I realized something.

"Oh, quit it, Daniel. I know you like Jihyo, so stop playing with me."

His cheeky smile turned into a frown. "Fine, I'll stop. You're just as scary as that woman." My face formed a questioning look. "Eh? You're scared of Jihyo?"

He nodded and said, "She's Jihyo after all." Then I smiled and tried to tease him. "But I know you still love her, despite the way of how scary she is." After I said that he just rolled his eyes and had his 'whatever' look on.

Tch... in denial much.

"I gotta go now I still have to eat with Jihy--" Hah!  You just got caught in the act, Mr. Kang. "I mean I still have to eat lunch by myself." He said and made his way to the cafeteria.

I was walking around the school's hallway until I saw a very familiar figure.

Taehyung?

As much as I want to avoid him and hide myself, I finally decided to try to talk to him and clear this mess.

I let out a deep breath and was about to call his name.

"Taehyung" I called and I successfully caught his attention. "Can we talk?" I asked.

"Talk about what?" He paused. "We have nothing to talk about."

"About last night..." I began.

I heard him laugh. "You really thought the things I said last night was true?"

W-what?

"Listen. I was drunk, okay? Nothing more, nothing less." My heart started to become weak. "I don't love you and I'd be more than glad to get you out of my life if I have to."

He said the things that he knew was about to break my heart and it did. "I think it's better to leave everything in the past behind and pretend that we don't know each other. Because to me, you're just nothing but a person I once loved. And it's the same for you to me, right? So it's better off to be strangers to each other."

I couldn't control what I was feeling so I slapped him. "You think it's easy?" I paused. "You think it's easy to be filled with guilt your every damn day thinking that the reason why you left me was because of something I did?" Those thoughts still haunt me up until now and he doesn't even know it.

I can feel his sad eyes staring at me, but I just ignored him like it's nothing, like it doesn't even hurt. "You want me to treat you like a stranger, right?" I said and looked at him deeply.

I know what I'm about to say will be very hard for me to do even for a short amount of time but I'll try... if that means I can finally be happy again.

"Starting from today, I'll stop loving you."
