Chapter 28; Tic Toc.

Sungyeol looked at you with wide eyes.
You told him you wanted to end this, you wanted to leave him but all he does was look at you.
Not even saying a word. In a way, it pissed you.
In another, it makes you feel more comfortable since you can just leave.

And that was exactly what you did.
You just left him, shocked and pained right where he was.

Sungyeol could barely breathe when your shadow left his sight.
He had wanted to tell you not to leave, not to leave him here standing alone.
He had wanted to ask you for a chance but somehow or rather the words got stuck in his throat.

It was choking him.

He had so much to say.
It scared Sungyeol to think that you’re no longer his tomorrow.
In fact, you’re no longer his even now.
It left a significant fear in him.
To Sungyeol, now, in his world, there was no one else.
There was nothing else.
Everything was pulled out of him.
And his bright smile being one of them.

He used to tell you how he smelt chrysanthemum whenever you’re around.
He had a for the flora.
Sungyeol said that it was the scent of love.
He told you that chrysanthemum was the scent of love.

But right now, in total disbelief, the scent he loved and treasured was force out of him.
He didn’t taste the sweet smell on his lips anymore.

His love was gone.
