There are many words he wants to let her know, only to be gone when it can’t even reach the tip of his lips as she brushes past him looking straight ahead—as if they are stranger. Come to think of it, maybe they really are—he is a stranger to her. Whenever they run to each other coincidentally, her eyes will find something else to stare quickly, as if his existence is as unappealing as flying, invisible dust or white, boring walls.

“Young—“

The girl has disappeared even when her name isn’t let out of his mouth completely. Song Mino is left with his sad smile hanging on his lips. He can’t blame her for ignoring him, remembering how ignorant he was with her care before.

Heo Youngji wasn’t tired telling him to stop his ‘dangerous’ activity such as fighting with his rival gangs, but he only gave her a wide grin in return. Every time the girl who has been his ex for this past two weeks genuinely cared for his life, he called her nag too much. She’d get mad in return, but Mino couldn’t think a proper excuse as he couldn’t promise her to leave his dangerous activity.

His friends may able to accept his resignation of their wild lifestyle, but he can’t be sure his rivals would do so. And Song Mino never promised Heo Youngji to do her plea, not even with her tears streaming down on her cheeks in a plain heartbreaking sight.

There are many words he wants to let her know, like how he was wrong to assume her would be like other women come and go in his life. It’s not only him who falls for her sincerity, but also his dear sister who has watched enough his history with all the women before.

“She’s a good girl, too good for you.” Joohee uttered. “But maybe that’s the gift from God. Don’t let her go, Mino-ah.” There were uncountable times for Joohee to tell him to quit his bad behavior, and when Youngji said the same, his sister supported her fully.

Now, the only thing his sister asks to him is, “Where is Youngji? It’s been long time she hasn’t come here.” Mino has told her that they were over and got Joohee out of control at him, but then, for a split second she forgot again.

Sometimes he wakes up suddenly in the dawn and forgets too—that they’re over, that she has no longer care for him.

“Are you okay?”

It’s not like his intention to eavesdropping, but it just happens naturally as he takes a seat behind the two girls who are oblivious with their surrounding at the cafeteria. Kwon Sohyun stirs her pasta as staring at her best friend in concern.

“I’m fine,” Youngji answers dismissively, quietly swallows her lunch.

“You and Mino—“

“We’re over and I have moved on.”
