Chapter 1:

1 Year Later~

Chaeyoung's P.O.V~
----------------------------
It's been a year since that day where Mina left me. I still can't get over her and I hate it. I hate myself for letting my guard down. Especially getting mad over such a small thing! I can never hate her, I hate him.

Mina is graduating this year since she's a senior along with Jihyo-Unnie. I'm a Junior with Dahyun and Nayeon, Jeonyeon, Momo, and Sana-Unnie all graduated last year. We all hung out at the graduation party they hosted. I saw Mina there but she ignored me the whole night. I deserved it.

For hurting her and hurting myself. I wish I could just turn back time...

I take another gulp with the strongest whiskey they had at the bar. I go here when I'm stressed or wanting to forget about her for just a while.

"Chaeyoung, stop drinking." My bartender friend told me, concerned. I shrugged it off and took another sip. His name is Kang Daniel. Daniel and I became friends when I kept coming here often. I found out that he's also a senior at JYP University and this is just his part-time job to make money.

I saw a girl walking towards my direction all seductively, wanting to cast me under her spell with her slim and fitted body.

"Hey beauty, what are you doing here all alone?" She said seductively as she caressed my cheek. I lightly pushed her hand away from my face and turned around to face the counter.

"Aw, playing hard to get I see." She said and chuckled. What is wrong with her? I mean, she's not the only girl who has done this to me. I usually shrug them off or leave them when talking to me but I guess my body wanted to see where this was going.

"My name is Miyawaki Sakura. And you're Son Chaeyoung." I flinched for a bit. 'She knows my name?'

"I know what you're thinking. How do I know your name right?" She turned my way and had this mysterious smile on her face that I saw in the corner of my eye. I finally gave in and faced her. I gave her a subtle nod, showing her I'm intrigued by her statement. "I'm a friend of your ex girlfriend. Myoui Mina." She said. Her voice became more stern and serious. I felt my heart beating so fast with just the mention of her name. My heart was full of love and pain. I looked down and took another gulp of my drink. Having that sour and bitter taste run down my throat.

She turned to the counter and took a quick sip of her beverage. "She keeps on talking about how much she hates you when she sees you. How much she wants to just rip off your face. It seems like you guys got off on the wrong foot. Because here, you still seem like you still love her."

That hit me hard. She talks like that... A-about me? Does she really hate me that much?

A tear escaped my eye. "I know how much you love her, I actually want you guys together. I've never seen her so happy before. I'll help you Chaeyoung-shi." She looked at me with eyes full of sincerity. Like she actually wanted to help me. She actually wanted us back together. But that's the problem.

I don't know...

I lost hope in us. I lost hope in me. I hate myself for letting her go. I hate myself for not chasing after her that night. I hate myself for speaking those words to her when she did nothing wrong.

I hug Sakura tightly, needing the comfort. I cry on her shoulder while she pats my back slowly and reciprocates the hug. We stay like that for a while until I break off the hug.

I couldn't speak since I only 'speak' around Nayeon and the others. I mouth a "thank you" towards Sakura and she understood.

"Here's my number. Just text me when you're ready." She gave me a piece of paper and stood up. "See you at school on Monday." And then she left me at the corner of the bar.
