It was lunchtime.

That meant socialising.

But I didn't wanna socialise.

Not when you had told me you were spending lunch with fruity perfumes and floral dresses.

Wasn't going on a date with her after school enough?

I wandered the hallways instead of going to the canteen.

I didn't wanna talk to any of our friends.

Not without you-

I gasped when I felt my body being pressed against a locker.

I winced.

It was Kang Taehyun.

I always forgot how strong he was.

"Kai's crying. Fix it" was all he said before he grabbed my hand and dragged me to a classroom.

I gulped.

Because it really was Kai.

In the corner of the empty room.

Crying.

When Kai was crying, it was hard to make him stop.

"K-"

"Go away" he spoke before I could say a syllable.

"Why're you crying?" I asked.

"You never talk to me anymore" he sobbed.

My heart shattered.

Mind scattered.

I had missed a call from Kai yesterday.

Never mind.

It was 10.

And 5 the day before.

"Do you even like me?" He sobbed harder at my lack of response.

"Huening" I spoke softly, pulling him into my chest.

He still didn't stop crying.

But he did wrap his arms around me.

I knew he would only cry harder at my next words.

Because I had to tell him the truth.

๑ "Hyuka, I lied to you". ๑
