ahreum.

"ahreum..." i looked up and saw jaehyuk looking at me, sadly. i placed my book down.

i can't be mad at him.

"hey!" i said as i gave him a smile. jaehyuk sighed as he sat beside me. "i'm really sorry, ahreum. i just didn't know how to tell you." he explained. i have known jaehyuk since forever and i know he was sincere.

"it's fine, hyuk." i reassured him. he looked up and gave me a sad look. "i... i'm so sorry."

"oh?" i panicked as soon as i saw him crying. "yah! why are you crying?" i told him as i cupped his face and wiped his tears away.

he hugged me tight as i also did. "i don't want to lose you, ahreum. i already lost mom, i don't to lose you too."

i bit my lip as i prevented myself from crying.

why was fate too cruel for me?

"ahreum-ie." jaehyuk called my attention.

"jaehyuk, shh. we're watching a movie." i shushed jaehyuk as i paid my attention to the film playing in front of us.

"when are you going to tell junkyu about it?" i paused for a bit before looking at jaehyuk who was also looking at me.

"i mean, he's your friend so... i thought you know... you'd tell him at least?"

"or maybe even yedam." he added.

i looked at the tv screen once again before sighing. "i'll think about it." i replied.

---

i was lying on my bed right after the movie jaehyuk and i watched. jaehyuk's words were stuck in my mind. how am i suppose to tell junkyu about it?

i couldn't bring myself to tell him. what would happen if i tell him?

my phone ting-ed so i grab it and saw five messages from yedam.
