“he told me that he applied for work in Singapore and he got accepted because he’s that smart and great at his field. I was happy of course 

“but I was hesitant because what will happen to us with the long distance relationship right? once or twice a year he comes back to Korea and when I save up enough, I go to him.

“it was okay for the first two years, but then we started to have fights that takes a long time to fix, he skipped going back here and when I go there it was only for a few days.

“we’re in a relationship for five years already, so I figured, why don’t I just stay there with him, he seems to be the One already, right?” she started to choke on her words

“I bought a ticket for Singapore, I thought I should surprise him, I thought he might like it, I thought it will solve all our fightings and misunderstanding, I didn’t even inform my brother of my plan, just told him I’ll visit Singapore, but I just up and went there with no return ticket” she laughed bitterly

“and you know what I found out when I got there? he’s already living with a woman, he said she’s his housemate, but bull. she’s wearing the shirt I gave him” she sat up crying and cluthed her chest. Hanbin scoots closer to her, he rubbed her back to comfort her, just then he took notice that she’s almost sitting on his lap.  it

“the following day, my world turned upside down, he told me that he doesn’t love me anymore, that we’re over, that I should just move on, then he gave me a ticket to go back, saying I should be finding the real love of my life soon. what the .

“I wanted him to tell me it was lies. because you know, when you love the person too much, you can’t accept the fact that their love ended? you make this illusion that what happen were just nightmares. and when you wake up, it’s all okay, everything is back to normal. but its not like that. I am hurting, I feel every part of me hurting” 

she’s full out bawling and he pulled her even closer, she’s soaking his shirt but he didn’t mind, he just let her pour it all out while he occasionally rub her back until her cries subside and finally stop, she was leaning on his shoulder and when he looked at her face she’s already asleep.

he carried her to his room, seeing that hers is locked

he laid her down in his bed and tucked her in

he wiped the traces of tears from her face

he tucked away her loose hair

he stared at her

a tear escaped from her eyes and he wiped it away

“sshh, gwenchana Hayi-ah” he lulled her to sleep, and when her breathing even out, he went out to sleep on the sofa, he kept the door slightly open so if she calls out, he could hear her.

meanwhile, unbeknownst to Hanbin, his phone has been exploding with messages from his siblings

the next morning Hayi has been awaken by the nonstop ringing beside her

and she only knows one person to call her that early — Mino.

she tried her hardest to open her eye to see the screen

she manage to hit the green button and the loud speaker

she closed her eyes as she answered the call

“Oppa, call later” she mumbled

“I’m hungover” she waited for the familiar voice of her brother but instead ...

“is that a woman’s voice?”

“see, I told you!”

“did we call Hanbin?”

“this is our group chat, of course that’s Hanbin”

“didn’t sound like him”

four different voices greeted her

Hayi’s eyes flew open and she could only blink at the phone

“yeoboseyo agassi, are you with our brother?”

“neh?” she tried to process what is happening and where she is, her eyes focused on the phone itself. its not hers. she’s not even in her room.

“wait please”

“” she pushed the bed covers away, got up and almost fell face forward.
