“Jongin... friend or not... stay away from Mina.”

Sehun's warning echoed in Jongin's head. As much as Jongin wanted to … how can he?

“Jongin?.... Jongin? Yah!”

Jongin was brought back to reality with Mina's flying hand in front of his face.

“Huh?”

“Welcome back to earth, Jongin. Is something on your mind?”

“-sigh- its just wedding jitters. What were we talking about?” He asks.

“flower arrangement!” Jinhee answers.

“Oh... okay.”

Only 3 days left before the wedding. It was down to the wire. The flowers were set. The cake issue was fix. Now the 3 were on their way to their last fitting. Mina, watched afar as Jinhee and Jongin were smiling at each other as they wear their wedding attire. Suddenly, Mina felt alone. All her friends in relationships... well expect Sehun, but that a different story.

After a successful dress and tux fitting, Mina found herself at a bar. She needed a distraction from seeing the happy faces she saw today. She couldn't help it. She should be happy but there still that part of her that wishes a happy ending for her.

“Nam Mina?” Mina looked up and saw an old classmate from high school

Actually, she wasn't even a classmate... more like a girl that was always annoyed Mina and Jiyeon. Always flaunting and showing off to Mina

“Jung Ga In.” Mina faked smiled.

“Wow! Its been how many years already?” Gain sat next her.

“Its been awhile.” Mina answers.

“How Jiyeon? Does she have a boyfriend yet?” Ga In asked.

“She's fine... and she yes she has a boyfriend.”

“Oh wow that's great! How about that cute guy friend that as always with you during high school? Jongmin? Jongnee?”

“Jongin.... and he's getting married soon.” 

“Aww that's cute!!! So have you gotten married already?” Ga In asked.

“Ah no not yet.” Mina tried to hold back her fist from flying in her the other girl's face.

“Do you have a boyfriend?” She started to drill her

“No...”

“Awww poor Mina. I hope you don't grow old alone. I just got married a month ago. See!” GaIn shows how her giant rock. “And we just came back from our honeymoon from Maldives. My husband is the future CEO of the Go Company. Aigoo I'm so lucky.” Ga In continues to rub it in Mina's face.

“Congratulations” Mina had to fight off the urge to not punch her in the face.

“Don't worry some guy will eventually look at you.” Ga In smirked. “Anyways... got to go! Have to meet my hubby. See you later Mina!!” Ga In walks away.

Mina watches her exit the bar. She catches a glimpse of Ga In's husband. He was indeed handsome. Seeing this angered Mina. She took her glass of alcohol and chugged it. Well tried to. Before she could finish, a hand stopped her.

“yah yah yah stop it!” Jongin takes the glass away from her.

Jongin followed her after the fitting. He was nearby and heard everything that GaIn said. He saw the hurt look in her eyes.

“No! Jongin just let me drink my sorrows away. Just tonight.” Mina downs another drink.

“Aish...” Jongin sits beside her and watches as she orders drink after drink after drink.

After 30 minutes, That when Jongin decided it was enough. Instead of taking Mina back to her house, she brought him to his apartment. Jongin didn't want her parents to see her in this state. Jongin slightly struggled to bring the drunken Mina into his apartment. He noticed how she's basically said nothing the whole time. She just drank. He took her onto his balcony. Confused. Mina looked at him

“Why?” She finally spoke.

“Let it all out” Jongin orders..

“Huh?” Mina looked at her friend with a confused look.

“I know you're hurting. Let it all out.” Jongin said again. Mina looked out at the skyline. Suddenly, Mina's waterline built up with tears. Eventually, they started to fall and Mina began to cry. She was letting everything that she held inside for who knows how long, finally out. Jongin can hear her sobs. He faced Mina and wrapped his arms around her. She continued to cry against his chest. When Mina's crying finally died down, the only
