The truth
10 reasons„And then? What did you do then?“ There were a few things mixing in Ahreum's expression right now. Anger, objection and excitement too.
„I told him I'm scared of the truth... I told him I need a time to organize my thoughts and then... Then I left.“ Disappointment was added.
„What? Why? Why would you left?“
„I had enough of it... Of them. It's not that long I have found out about his „long-time manipulative girlfriend“ and now I have to deal with the fact, that all that time, she was next to me. It's just too much of a coincidence. And... When he woke me up. I don't know. I had a bad feeling about that.
„Bad feeling?“
„Something was off. He was different.“
„You know, I don't think that something has changed. You just thought about it too much. You made yourself believe that.“
„What do you know? You wasn't even there.“ she stayed silent for a while.
„I'm trying to help you...“
„I'm sorry. I'm just... desperate.“ My phone started ringing. Again. Who else would it be other than him? Ahreum grabbed it and turned it off.
„You know, you are a coward... You should have talked it out and everything could have been okay. But since it already happened, you need to make the most of it.“
„What do you mean?“
„Take it into your own hands! We need to come up with a plan.“

Next day
I had her number since the beginning, but I have never used it. Meeting her was always a coincidence. Or at least I thought that before.
I don't know if she will show up. She doesn't have to. All I left her was a phone message. Maybe she didn't see it, maybe I'm not worth her presence, maybe, this will change into another of my nightmares. Is this the silence before a storm? Will we fight? Will I dramatically splash the water on her face? Actually, I would like to try it. It looks cool.
I looked at the phone screen to check the time, but a smiley picture of Ahreum appeared instead. I picked it up.
„What?“
„Is she already there?“
„Where?“
„With you!“
„Ahreum, this isn't a spy movie. Stop calling me.“
„See? I told you she won't like it.“ She said while covering the mic. Probably to Seokjin. „Hmm? Tell her yourself!“
„Ehmm Ehmm. Yerim?“ Yes... It is Seokjin.
„Yes?“
„Turn on your sound recorder. I saw it in that drama... You know... That one Ahreum is always watching.“
„People, you don't have a life!“ I shouted to the phone.
„You will thank me later.“
„He is telling you that only because he want to listen to it later.“ The phone was back in Ahreum's hands.“
„Find something better to do.“ I turned it off and while putting the phone into my back pocket, I saw a familiar shoes. Looking up, it really is her.

We were sitting in a small coffee shop, waiting for our order. I didn't know where to start. I had a plan, but now, sitting in front of her, I forgot everything.
„Did you just want to look at me or are we going to talk?“ she asked, probably frustrated by the silence.
„I'm sorry, I just don't know, who is sitting in front of me right now.“
„Hmm?“ she asked surprised.
„I don't know you... I don't know who is hiding behind that face.“ I breathed out. „Maybe it will sound desperate, but can you tell me the truth? Can you tell me what does this all mean?“
„Are you kidding me?“ she looks even angrier than before.
„What?“
„Is this a joke? Was this Jungkook's idea or did you come up with it?“
„I don't understand.“
„Okay... I get it. I know I acted stupid. I know it was immature. But do you have to humiliate me so much? I'm sorry! Are you satisfied now?“ This is cert
