I needed an answer. This isn't making any evident sense.

Why would Krystal appear just like an invisible wind to him?

I cautiously entered the lighthouse, careful not to step on anything that would generate any sound.

I climbed the spiral stairway as I had a glimpse of the room that was slightly opened, as usual.

I heard a voice. It was Krystal's.

Did she have a visitor?

As far as I knew, I'm her only one.

"Seohyun-sshi, I have to tell him. He deserves to know, right?" She inquired, as I placed my ear just above the door, positioning myself before it.

I heard no one respond. Then she spoke again.

"What if he gets angry at me? What if he'll leave just like Luhan did?"

Luhan? A peculiar name. But it sounds like a guy.

Her lover? Maybe that one in the picture.

She quieted down.

My curiosity got the best of me, so I gathered enough courage to enter the room, whoever this visitor was.

I gently pushed it open, revealing a Krystal that was not in her usual self.

"Ah, yeah. I was talking to myself." She tried to smile, though I can sense that she was a bit uneasy.

Her eyes were exploring the place, except for the spot where I stood.

"Who is Seohyun?" I tried to ask calmly, since I know something was a bit off.

I felt her tense, her eyes dilating in surprise as she looked at me.

"N-no one."

"Krystal, am I still a stranger to you? Don't you trust me?" Hurt was obvious in my tone, my eyes trying to look tough but somehow failing.

She looked down, her face displaying a grimace. A few seconds and she responded.

"Sehun, I.... I don't deserve your love. I've been selfish." She looked away.
