It’s been four days since the last time they talked.

She miss her girlfriend so much but the latter refused to pick up her calls. She tried to visit her house but no one answered the door.

She even tried to visit her at work only to be chased away by her friends.

Wendy never thought this day would come.

“You should have known better unnie not to meet that Megan girl in the café with just the two of you .”

“I didn’t know that she would ask me to get back together, I thought it was just a friendly chat cause she’s visiting her parents here.”

“And It’s the worst timing ever she saw that kiss.”

“Please Yeri you’re not helping me.”

“Just do something about it unnie, I’m tired of listening to Irene unnie's ‘betraying lover’ poetry everynight, not even the wall in my room could cover her damn voice.”

“I tried but she refused to see me.”

“Maybe try harder? tomorrow is saturday unnie so you can try to see her in the house.”

“What if she still doesn’t want to see me?”

“Try harder unnie, catch her attention, give her something unexpected, talk to her or anything what it takes her to forgive you”

‘catch her attention, give her something unexpected, talk to her?’

 

*****

Wendy rang the bell. Lucky for her, this time Irene opened the door.

She was looking at Wendy with her cold expression.

“This is for you.” Wendy smiled widely while holding a box of chocolate.

“Are you trying to make me fat?”

“No I-” and then Irene slammed the door.

“….”

‘The windows are open. This is it.’ Wendy sighed. She’s gonna risk it all.

She stood in front of Irene’s house while looking at the windows on the second floor. She was wearing red t-shirt with Irene’s face print on it along the line ‘I Luv u, forgive me’ with a white headband and pink pants. There were red paint love symbols on both of her cheeks. She brought a flag alongside lightstick and a drum.

She sticked the flag that has Irene’s face on it in the ground, then proceed to hit the drum while swinging her lightstick yelling asking for forgiveness.

Irene just got home from the gym and suddenly stopped in her tracks. She stood behind a tree not to far away from Wendy and saw everything what Wendy did.

‘What the… has she lost her mind?’

“Hey kid! Are you insane?! You’re disturbing the neighbourhood!” someone lived beside the house shouted.

“I won’t stop until she forgive me sir!”

“I’m gonna call the police if you don’t stop!”

“Wendy unnie what are you doing?!” Yeri just arrived home and got off from her car immediately.

“Uhh catch her attention?”

“But not like this! you look like a protester that just got into a kpop!”

“…”

 

*****

“Can’t you be a little faster Sooyoung? I’m gonna be late and Joohyun’s gonna go to work now.” Wendy stood in front of Irene’s house while talking on the phone.

“I’m on my way there unnie and It’s your fault! why did you ask me to get you flower just now? You could have asked  me yesterday or last night.”

“I want it fresh Sooyoung, I don’t want a rotten flower for Joohyun. Just get here faster!”

“Ugh I hate you! I’m on my way there unnie.”

Joy got off from her car holding a bouquet of white roses inside a plastic bag and gave it to Wendy.

“Why do you bring me this? I want red roses!”

“Bye unnie, see you at work.”

“What the…”

The sound of door locking caught Wendy’s attention.

“Oh Joohyun babe! This is for you.” Wendy gave the plastic bag to Irene while showing her cheeky smile.

“…”

“Do you like-”

“Are you trying to insult me?”

“Huh?”

Irene was holding another thing from inside the plastic bag.

‘Height enhancement vitamin? holy Sooyoung!’ Wendy cursed under her breath.

“Joo- Joohyun, Sooyoung did-”

“I really need to go to work now Seungwan, bye.”

“…”

 

*****

“I shouldn’t have agreed to do this.”

“Come on Joy this is fun! Besides she promised to buy us lunch for a week.”

“That’s the only thing what makes me agree to do this Seulgi un

Chapter 4: That's seungwan, am i right? Seungwan's existence really matters to joohyun. Losing someone who a deep impact in your life could drain the light out of you. I'm curious as to how seungwan has been shot and why is she shot in the first place? Did they trespass again? Is that why joohyun can't forget seungwan aside from their bond, it's because of her guilt of what happened to seungwan??? Pls i wanna know what happened and it would be greatly appreciated if you will tell me the background story.

I know her mom only wants the best for her but that kind of therapy has done nothing but damaged to people and honestly i don't think that it works. I think they used to do that in the 70's. I'm not sure now tho.

I'm honestly avoiding reading angst as much as possible and this is the angst i had read in a while which was eons ago lol. I avoid it like plague but I'm having a reading marathon with your works so yeah

Chapter 1: I had to pause to laugh when yeri told seungwan that she looks like a protestor who just got into kpop. The way you put it into words, i can totally visualize it. So funny. Also the artificial rain that she coax her friends to do. She's so dramatic, i love her.

Chapter 4: I extra cried hard for this one shot. Too many nostalgic scenes. From them playing around with the tree. The Christmas eve and preparation. Sleeping and getting comfy with your love one….it’s all extra too much as I am also having a mini breakdown as a freshman student. Perhaps I am overthink, but the fact that even til now i am lacking in so many aspects in life doesnt help with the impending doom that I might be late in life compared to my peers. It’s just my first week and I’m already feeling this:/// I related to this joohyun….perhaps being out of it would be greater than what this is.
