I looked at the figure in front of me. You were wearing the red dress I gifted you with. Your beauty shines so bright that the sun felt threatened of losing its job. Your dark brown eyes were sweet and luminous. Your nose was pointy and your lips were so plump that i want to kiss it everytime I see you.
You're perfect. Too perfect of a human being, too perfect of a girlfriend. You're flawless, Dahyun-ah.
But people tend to be ungrateful. Even when they had the best, they still want more. And so do I.
"Nayeon?" your voice interrupted my train of thought, it was lovely. I love how my name rolled off your tongue, your sweet voice greeting my ears.
"Yes?" I replied.
"Why did you want to see me? Do you miss me that much that it can't wait?" you said, as you smiled teasingly toward me.
Why did you have to smile like that? You are making it so hard for me. And your question was not of any help. Not when my answer is going to break your heart.
"You'll get hurt." i cursed my brain as the words rolled off my tongue. I could have put that better. I saw you creasing your forehead then you gave me a 'what do you mean?' look.
"I can't be with you anymore." it took a lot for me to say this but alas, i have to say this. I can see the sparkles in your eyes dissipated, your smile faded away.
"But- why?" i expected this question to be asked, i have the answer but i can't bring myself to say it out. How am i supposed to tell you that I have another girlfriend? The quiver in your voice was enough for me to feel a pang of guilt.
"I told you, you'll get hurt." that was the best answer I could give you, Dahyun.
Your hands reached for mine, I still find it cute that both your hands equal the size of one of my hand.
"I'll get hurt then. If that's the cost to be with you."
That's when I knew i commited a fatal sin. She's an angel. God gave me an angel and yet, I still tried to find love in another human. I'm an ungrateful human being.
"No, I hate seeing you hurt. We can't be together anymore."
"You hate seeing me hurt, which means you love me. I don't get it. We love each other, what's the point breaking up?"
You're smart. Even though you're 3 years younger than me.
I swallowed the lump in my throat. Gathering the courage to say it. It's difficult when your doe eyes are glistening of hope. It literally screamed out 'don't leave me.'. But Dahyun, this has to be done.
"Then, should I stop loving you? You shouldn't be with someone who hurts you." I feel my world broke apart as I heard that coming out from my mouth. But I have to, I have Mina waiting for me.
The shine in your face darkens, tears adorned your eyes. But your crying face is still pretty. How am I supposed to stop loving you?
"You.. really wanted to breakup with me that much?" you said in between your sobs.
A small nod was my answer to you.
"Then say it. Say that you're going to stop loving me. SAY IT!" you raised your voice at me, that was the first time in three years of relationship.
This is it. For the sake of you, I'll say this.
"Kim Dahyun, I'm going to stop loving you. Whatever it takes, I'll stop. I'll stop thinking about you at night. I'll stop caring about you-"
You didn't let me finish. Instead, you got up from your seat and exited the restaurant hurriedly. It was raining outside, you didn't bring any umbrella with you. Will you be okay? It will be cold.
