LXVII

she invited me inside her apartment. it's been so long since the last time i was here that i couldn't even recognize the whole place.

momo was happy for the cakes i brought, but most importantly she told me she was happiest when i finally appeared in front of her. she knew just how much of a mess i am and didn't want to approach me as i always wanted to handle myself alone. for so many times, i felt so lucky to have someone like momo who's there even when i neglect her, but almost always, i don't realize it when i should.

i told her everything that has been happening. mina, and all the things that orbits her. especially everything else i can't keep up with when she came. and that i'm still desperate enough to take the messy consequences just to be with her again.

momo smiled, looking down as she shakes her head. "that's so typical of you jeongyeon." she laughs. "i know how you try your best to get something you want, but this is the first time i'm seeing you this desperate over a person."

"i don't know why either." i sighed, embarassed at how stupidly obsessed i am at the idea of mina. "maybe i just love her, and for once, i wanted to hear it from her too." i breathed, unable to utter the pain i have been feeling since then.

"then go get her." momo spoke. "tell her what you feel, tell her what you wanted so bad to hear, and tell her how much she meant the world to you. maybe she'll tell you how she really feels about you. you just have to ask her." she smiles, flicking my forehead before wrapping me with her arms again.

"thank you, momo."//
