Jiyeon hurried back home. As soon as she flopped to her bed, tears started rolling down her eyes. Shock and guilt stung in her heart and she couldn't get it off her no matter how hard she tried. Her phone kept on buzzing, but she was too afraid to pick it up and text. She only let time pass and let her sleep drift away.

A few weeks later, Hyunjin went to the cafe in the morning. Jisung greeted him."Iced Americano, please." He ordered. Jisung immediately got to work. "Have you seen Jiyeon?" He asked. "I see her pass by nowadays. She doesn't stop here to get something for the morning." He answered. "I see. Do you think she'll be fine?" He asked again.

"I don't think so. Was she talking to you? I heard you were her ex."

"W-Well, she talked to me a few weeks back, but she stopped."

"Why? What happened to her?" Jisung asked, putting Ice onto his cup. Hyunjin gritted his teeth and clenched his fists at the thought. "Hey, if I say this, will you hate me?" He asked. "Not really. I just wanted to know what happened to her." He replied, finally pouring the coffee in and giving his order to him.

Hyunjin leaned in and sighed. "We 'almost' had sex." He whispered to his ear. Jisung leaned. back and his jaw dropped as soon as he said it. "I know. I didn't think it through." He said, and put his hands onto his face and groaned. "What do I do? Yeorum's gonna know about this. She'll know I cheated on her."

"Hyunjin, It's all up to you now," Jisung mumbled, messing up his own hair a little. "You made a wrong move in your situation."

"Yeah, good job, bro." The voice of Minho rang to hits ear. He was actually there for a while now, and he was just eavesdropping at their conversation. "I don't have anything to do with it, so you'll do the dirty work. Sungie, give me anything, I'll pay for it." He said. Jisung nodded and started working.

As soon as Hyunjin saw Yeorum, he could see she was disappointed at him. She told him that Jiyeon told her about it and that she was absolutely mad.

"... We're over Hyunjin. Go off with yourself. You don't deserve to be loved this way." Yeorum said, walking off and leaving him by himself. Hyunjin felt a sharp pain sting in his chest, and tears started falling off his eyes.

"It hurts, doesn't it?" A woman behind him asked. The voice seemed to be Jiyeon. "I was in time to see you both break up while I'm on my way to uni."

"Jiyeon, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to."

"I want to tell you that I can't let you go back to where we were. You need to be by yourself."

"I can fix this. I can give Yeorum another chance."

"You said that to me, too. And I'll doubt that she'll forgive you."

She passed by him and went on her way to uni.

Hyunjin looked in sadness and sobbed while watching her walk away.
