“T-That can’t be true, Chae Rin.”

“But why? Why can’t he love you?”

You stared at your sister stupidly. The shock of the moment was registering on your face.

“We can ask him.”

“No!-”

“Luhan oppa!” Chae Rin shouted for him with the loudest voice she could ever do even with her mask on due to her ongoing chemotherapy. The called guy came sprinting to the room, worried that something happened.

“Chae Rin?”hHe called in a concerned voice. He looked at you, but you quickly looked away not wanting to meet his eyes.

Chae Rin stood up from the bed and quickly locked the door leaving Luhan all confused. She looked at him with her big innocent eyes and held his hand. “Oppa, I’m sorry, but I told unnie.”

“What did you-” then it sunk into him. There was only one secret he told Chae Rin and that was his biggest secret ever. He tried to look at you, but you were looking elsewhere. He sighed and knelt down to meet with Chae Rin’s level. “Chae Rin, can you leave us for a moment? We need to talk.” She nodded understandingly and left the room.

Those girls can give me pleasure and I can enjoy myself too.”

Lies. All lies.

He chuckled and shook his head. He knew you were going to get offended by his words and he was hoping you would hate him so he would have a reason not to love you anymore, but when he looked at his right, it was one of the most heart-rending sight he ever saw. You were sniveling and your tears were falling nonstop from your closed eyes.

“Is that it?” You looked at him with dejected eyes and you shook your head in disappointment. “I thought you changed. I really did. I hoped you did, but you just proved me wrong. How can I even trust you and put all my faith in you? I should have known. I should have known better than this. The endless rumors, gossips and bashings that I experienced just fo
