third person.

"she what?" yedam looked at junkyu confusingly.

"she told me i should not like her." junkyu sighed as he buried his face on the table, sighing.

"but she likes you." yedam he blowed his bangs and pouted, stressing at his best friend and was probably calling her stupid on the process too.

"did she tell you the reason tho?"

junkyu shook his head slowly.

"what's wrong with him?" jihoon asked as soon as he reached their table with jaehyuk and yoshinori. yedam shrugged. "he confessed to ahreum..."

"he finally did?!" jihoon freaked out as he and jaehyuk hugged each other and started jumping like kids.

"so why is he gloomy? didn't ahreum like him too?" yoshinori asked as he sat on a vacant chair.

"that's the problem..." yedam rolled his eyes. "ahreum rejected hyung and told him not to like her."

jihoon and jaehyuk stopped jumping and sat as they gave yedam questioning looks. "why would ahreum do that?" jihoon asked as jaehyuk stayed quiet, trying to find the reason why ahreum does not want junkyu to like her.

then it hit him like a bus.

"yedam, i think it's because of that." jaehyuk emphasized the "that" as everyone looked at him, including junkyu who suddenly raised his head.

yedam's eyebrows furrowed before he realized what jaehyuk meant. "ah that." yedam looked down while the other three were confused.

"hello? care to share?" jihoon rolled his eyes.

"jaehyuk..." jaehyuk looked at junkyu whose eyes were literally begging him to tell him what was wrong.

jaehyuk sighed. "hyung, do you want to talk to her personally?"

ahreum was at the greenhouse looking for another book to read. she saw a good book above her but it was too high for her so she pouted.

not until the door suddenly and she beamed. "oh you're home! can you get me- junkyu?"

"hi." junkyu greeted. "jaehyuk told me i could come-"

ahreum turned around, ignoring junkyu. he sighed as he went closer. "ahreum..." junkyu held ahreum's hand in which she immediately pushed away.

"ahreum, i really like you."

"junkyu i told you can't." ahreum pursed her lips into a thin line.

"why? why can't i?"

"junkyu, you don't understand..."

"then make me understand." ahreum closed her eyes, trying to prevent herself from crying. she started walking away but junkyu held her hand. "ahreum just tell me the reason why i can't like–"

"junkyu, i'm dying!" ahreum answered causing junkyu to loose grip of her hand. "i like you, yes. but junkyu i only have two months to live. i don't want to leave you that way."

"i don't want to see you get hurt because of me. so please... just drop it." junkyu couldn't speak. no words were coming out from his mouth.

it was too sudden.

ahreum took a deep breath before she left the greenhouse hurriedly, before she would break down into tears.
