[hueningkai's p.o.v.]

'do you want to order anything?' wonyoung asks, snapping me out of my gaze.

i lowered the menu and see her, dressed in a graphic tee and tennis skirt. her makeup seemed more visible, and i realized that she dressed up like she was on a date.

'i'll just have a cappuccino.'

'okay.'

she called over a waiter and ordered a cheesecake and cappuccino too.

comparing to how i was dressed, it didn't feel appropriate. i was wearing an oversized shirt and sweats that could also work as pajamas. but it didn't matter, since she bumped into me in front of the cafe.

'what were you doing here? you live pretty far.'

'actually, i came here to talk to you about something important.'

i froze.

it's been a some time since she transferred here, and i expected her to try to get me back at times, and i guess it was about to happen. i braced myself for anything, but there was silence, before she took out a black box from her purse.

she opened the lid and revealed the necklace. the one i gifted her when we just started dating. of course, it was still broken and i'm sure it could never be fixed or mended, judging from the looks of it now.

'..if you came here just to show me that again, i should leave.'

i stood up from the booth and grabbed my coat, but stopped when she said these words.

'yuna broke it.'

i turnt back at her, and her beady eyes stared back at me. she nodded for me to sit back down once again, and i had to know what she meant anyways, so i placed back my coat and took my seat once again.

'i thought we finished this discussion back then.'

her lips quivering, she started playing with her thumbs and looking everywhere but me. it was her habit when she's nervous.

'i know, i know. but i feel like you should know.'

'why should i know?'

'because she tried to get in our way. i know it was long ago, but it doesn't change the fact of what she did.'

'i'm sorry wonyoung, i really am.. but i simply can't believe it.'

'why?'

'i haven't fully trusted you.'

her cheeks turnt red, realizing what i was referring to. while we were still together, she had a small crush on haruto watanabe, a new student back then.

'that was before we started dating, hueningkai.'

'well, it doesn't change the fact of what you did.' i repeated her words.

she bit her lip in frustration, pulling her hair behind her ear.

'fine. but keep my word.' wonyoung finally says.
