"You did what?" Seulgi exclaimed hearing what transpired on Wheein and Byul's date.

After the kiss, Wheein didn't even let Byul have the chance to explain herself, she obviously looked so disappointed- probably mad, even. She didn't even let Byul drive her home; she called Hyejin to pick her up instead.

Moonbyul sighed in frustration. "I know, okay?" she knows how badly she hurt Wheein. She shouldn't have kissed Wheein without making sure about her own feelings. She thought she was ready; she kissed Wheein before, but doing it in front of Yongsun's grave made her feel so uncomfortable. It's like she could feel Yongsun's eyes piercing through the back of her head. "I know I messed up."

Byul sighed, "She looked so happy before that. It was almost perfect."

"Why did you even pull away?" Seulgi questioned. She wanted Byul to explain it to her so she might understand.

Byul only sighed. She didn't think Seulgi would understand. She didn't regret kissing Wheein, she just regretted doing it at that moment. She wishes she didn't pull away, but the guilt in her chest was just too much for her to handle; she felt like she was cheating on Yongsun right in front of her.

But since she can't give her a reason, Seulgi knew her well enough to know exactly why. "Yongsun's gone, Byul. Don't feel guilty for having feelings for someone else. Stop torturing yourself. "

"Can't I be faithful to Yongsun even when she's gone?" Byul retorted. "Can't I continue loving her?" Byul's voice cracked before she could finish her sentence. She tries her best to stop herself from crying.

Byul looked so pained that Seulgi didn't have a comeback for her question. "I thought you like Wheein?" she asks instead.

Byul composes herself before she answers; her tears no longer threatening to fall from her eyes. She'd done it a million times that she's getting good at it. "I do like Wheein. A lot. But...maybe I like her because I'm sad. I kept thinking that maybe it's because I'm longing for Yongsun and she happens to be there, you know?" Byul confesses.

Seulgi sighs. "Do you really feel that way?" she asks, because maybe her mind is just thinking of excuses for herself.

"I don't know." Byul answers truthfully. Seulgi was about to speak but Byul continued, "I was so sure that Yongsun will be the only person I'd be capable of falling in love with." The memory of how Wheein asking Yongsun to tell her that she's allowed to love and be loved by someone else, played in her mind. "I don't know if I have it in me to love someone else like that again." she adds.

Seulgi was quiet for a moment, thinking of the right words to say. "You're not supposed to love them the same way, Byul. They're two different people, you can love them both equally in two different ways."

Chapter 23: Quite an emotional ending. The other week I was reading about how, infrequently, organ transplant recipients seem to take on traits of the donor, read through this with that idea in mind.

Chapter 23: When I found your story, I read it all in one night, till ch. 22, and I can hear the crash sound of my heart when its ended with, "...maybe this won't work". I thought really that was the finale like, "we will not getting all in our life", I hold on it.

But then, after awhile, I check my subscription page, and your story was on top. I remembered the title tho. And like a flashback, I remember all the plot. And I checked, just to make sure its really another chapter, the closure, not only an update from author, and, and I feel soo overwhelming now. I didn't know I am too invest with this story.

I'm not a writer I really don't know how I can write, more to my ramblings, this long. But author-nim, thank you. Thank you for all the emotions you manage to wake inside me. I really really love your writing. Not only the plot, but the emotions in your writing that you put. Ah I don't know what its call, but I really admire your writing style. So, thank you and keep going and have a nice day!

Chapter 23: Reading this chapter brought me a lot of emotions. It feels like I am at the edge of mountain while reading the next sentences. It catches reader's attention. At first I thought that Wheein is already dead but its not. From that point, my trust issues on you authornim heightens and made me overthink on what's next to come but kudos to you author for giving us a wonderful story and giving us heart attack. This story is so good. Congratulations, author for this well written fic. More to come pleaseeeee.

Chapter 22: My heart clenched just reading this story especially the time I read about Wheein's father and how the accident happened. Wheein and Moonbyul's feelings are valid. They both experienced different kind of pain from their lost loved one. I love the conflict but it hurts like hell. The father of Wheein is one of the reasons why Yongsun died. Fate had been terrible for the two. They were meant to meet but not meant to be together. They can't push aside each others struggle and pain. It will be a never ending conflict to the two of them if they will push through their relationship

Chapter 22: Aaaaahhhhhhhh MY HEART
Istg if wheebyul doesn’t end up together im gonna throw hands 😭😭😭 I love this story and truthfully like I get both sides. Neither side is wrong for feeling how they feel. The guilt that wheein has is so heavy like I get why she would be uncomfortable and want to break it off despite the fact that she loves her. This story hurts. Even if they part I feel like it will take forever for byul to recover from losing. Not only ONE (not by choice) lover but her SECOND.as well and walking away (their choice). Like how is she gonna find someone else. Like I won’t be surprised if she s traumatized because everyone she loved left her both willingly and unwillingly. Wheein too like ughhhhhh she also deserves so much happiness and peace. I hope that they just take a long long break, byul learns to forgive wheezing father and wheein learns to be okay and at peace with her fathers passing. I hope both heal and come back together. Authornim you can’t just let them part like that PLEASEDE
