do you see right through me?

kyung-jun curses you under his breath, "let go you crazy bitch-"

"can you stop being stubborn for just one moment and take it? or is your pride too precious to protect that you'd deny help from someone willing to give it?"

kyung-jun's movements cease at your words. instead of fighting, he begins watching you closely, sizing you up, and you have no issue copying his actions. you watch his face just as intently, catching the way he digests your words, his resolve unfolding slowly as his fingers slacken beneath your own. the exact moment of his defeat is found in the way his anger settles, growing quieter, but never leaving entirely. he may realize the truth in your words, but it doesn't mean he has to like it.

whatever. it doesn't matter to you. you saw right through him then. for someone with walls so high, it was easy to climb up and look inside.
