I did my best trying to stand brave in front of him. Sehun wasn’t talking yet, instead he paced back and forth. We were near the venue, hidden between the space of the two closed shops.

“I’m sorry,” I break the silence and he stops his self from pacing right in front of me.
“Sorry for what? For getting caught of cheating?” He shots at me as he stares down. I look back at him, not believing his words, “Cheating? When did I ever cheat, Sehun?”

He scoffs. “The very moment where I was studying and you left to cheat on me.”.

I clenched my jaw, as he accuses me, “I never cheated! Remember, you left me. You left me holding on onto something that was unsure. You left me hanging, Oh Sehun! And last time I checked, we weren’t even in an official relationship!”

All the frustrations.

He remains silent till I heard him sniffle. Sehun was already crying me before me, “I thought you’d know better, Jinae. That moment, I pulled you in a hug in front of people, you should have known that I was already willing to risk everything. I was willing to risk my position as an instructor.” He confesses recalling that time during the pageant.

“I thought I had explained to you, how I was saving my heart from getting hurt and that I only had you and my mom.” he continued and a part of me was already feeling sorry.
