One Day With You.

Diary of breaking up : 1

Jennie's point of view:

"I think we should break up" Taehyung said, looking down at his plate while eating his dinner quietly.

"Huh..?" I was stunned on hearing this.

"I have been thinking about it. I don't think we should be together anymore... it's painful to break up with you, but for the sake of our future..."

My mind went blank. I didn't hear a word he said later.

"You don't love me anymore?" I asked, tears welled up in my eyes, ready to fall any moment.

He didn't answer.

The next day, I moved out of the apartment where we had lived for a year.

"This apartment is not so good, but it's cheap! Look, it can boast of its broad view..." the landlord beamed with joy.

"Hmm... I'll rent it."

As I was unpacking my things, drops of tears escaped my eyes, which soon turned into buckets of water.

It's actually a small apartment, but too spacious for me... Am I gonna live alone from now on?

I have been with Taehyung for 5 or 6 years, from grade 12 to the graduation from college... we've been together for so many years. How could it end like this?

Didn't you promise me that we were going to see the northern lights in Iceland? That we would get married after two years of work? That you would love me forever...

"He must have cheated on you!" Irene said in frustration. "Well, Taehyung didn't give you any reason. He must have something to cover up. Perhaps he hooked up with someone else..."

"Huh..?" I held my knees tighter and curled up into a ball "I don't think he would do that..."

Irene held my shoulder with both her hands and said "Jennie, People change!"

Honestly, it's possible that he fell for others. We don't check each other's phone. I don't know everything about his life.

So I decided to stalk him.

Taehyung was walking towards the park when a girl came from no where and started a conversation with him. She was pretty and lively.

I followed them until they reached a convenience store. She went inside the store and told him to wait for her.

I sighed. There's no point in following them anymore.

"Jennie Kim!" A deep voice called me. Oh, gosh... "Are you stalking me?"

"..."

"Are you Ok?" He asked, concern evident in his voice.

"That woman... you and she..." I stammered and couldn't finish the sentence. There was a tight knot in my throat. And it was so painful.

"She's just a colleague"

"BUT YOU LOOK SO INTIMATE, TALKING AND LAUGHING...!" I yelled. I couldn't take this anymore.

But, Taehyung looked calm and collected "Jennie, if I fell for someone, I would tell you. I'm not lying."

So you just don't love me, right? Is this the answer I'm looking for..?

I quit my job within a few days. It's not the job I like. I don't wanna do it anymore...

I have led a dispirited life for over a whole month, until my account balance reduced to a few hundreds.

I abruptly realised that I can't survive without working. Otherwise I won't afford the rent next month.

I immediately started searching for a job. At times, I would go to a library to learn things necessary for the job.

It's odd that when I start to crazily learn something new, I feel less miserable.

"You're in!" The interviewer exclaimed.

I nodded with a smile and muttered a 'thank you'.

I exited the building and took a deep breath. So happy to get a job I love~

I hang out in the streets in the afternoon and unknowingly, I walked to my high school.

I can remember the days we began dating, as if it were yesterday...

On the way, I bumped onto a high school girl. She apologised by bowing down, but she looked so sad. She was really pretty for a high school student. Especially her heart shaped lips...

The girl seems to be crying. Is she also disturbed because of someone?

No matter how heartbroken we are, we can finally move on. Henceforth, I can live well even without a companion.

It was a sunny morning. I decided to go for a jog.

I was busy jogging when I felt my phone vibrate in my pant pocket.

I answered the call with the help of my headphones and spoke "Hello?"

"Jennie..."

"Taehyung? What's the matter? I'm jogging."

"Jennie, I... I missed you so much these days."
