Knight ↬ [ K.SM ]

Chapter 27:

'Tell me how'd it feel, sitting up there?'

Yeonjun POV:

After Luna walked away, I felt my heart sink.

So this is how she felt?

I was about to head home but I saw a familiar yet unknown face sitting on one of the swings.

"Uhm, excuse me?" I tapped his shoulder.

"Oh, may I help you?" He secretly wiped his tears but I noticed it anyway.

"Are you one of Luna's friend?"

"Unfortunately, yes I am." He sighed.

"Kim Seungmin." He stood up and offered hands. I quickly accepted.

"I'm Choi-"

"Yeonjun. Of course everyone knows you." He chuckled emotionless.

"So tell me, how does it feel to be always number one? How does it feel to be a fucking king that doesn't deserve his place because he's a disgrace?" He looked at me, smiling sarcastically.

I was left speechless of what he said. It's true, all of it was true.

"Does it feel good? Oh sorry, you might be uncomfortable. Your highness, I apologize for my rude behavior." He bowed.

I stood still, soaking all his words.

"Seungm-"

"Don't waste your precious voice on my filthy name. I'll just stop bothering you, your highness." He walked away abruptly.

I didn't even got the chance to say what I wanted to say.

I shook my head.

Flashback to Yeonjun confessing:

"What about Seungmin?" I heard Luna whisper.

She snapped out of her daze.

"I'll think about it." She said and turned around, walking away.

I guess I'm already late huh?

Mira even warned me.

I looked in the direction in which Seungmin took.

"You won, Kim Seungmin."

Seungmin POV:

I walked away not wanting to see him anymore.

"I guess I'll stay as your knight and not as your prince." I muttered, heart feeling heavy.

I've developed feelings for Luna in a very short time. I guess it won't be ever reciprocated. It was my choice anyway, I can't blame her.

Hearing Yeonjun confess to Luna is heartbreaking. Luna couldn't probably contain all her emotions, that's why she asked for time. Of course she would like him. He was Choi Yeonjun anyways. The perfect man in every girls eyes.

I just can't seem to shake off the little spark of hope somewhere in my body.
I just can't seem to hope that maybe she'll reject him. Who am I kidding? She liked him for several years, of course the feelings would stay or return either.

Oh, how wrong Seungmin is.
