“ Eric .. I thought I could believe him .. But it turns out that he just used me to get my father .. “ Hyesung began to sniff as he said that
Jihoon remain silent and let Hyesung continue his story .
“ Jihoon ah .. Do you know what my father's real job ? “
Jihoon doesn’t say anything.
Hyesung chuckled which make Jihoon confused , “ You must know the truth about my father , right ? But why you don’t say anything at all ? Is there really no one that I can believe ? Why people around me keep hiding the truth from me ? Why ? “ Hyesung start sobbing uncontrollably
He curled on his side . Jihoon feel like crying himself when he looks Hyesung like this . He pitied his childhood friend and feel guilty too. Hyesung keep crying and Jihoon can see that his body is shaking so he lean forward and hug Hyesung from the back.
“ Don’t cry Hyesung ah … Please you hurt me when you’re crying like this .. “
