Jinah was secretly hoping Luhan would understand what she said back there. She was indirectly confessing to him. She never knew he would be that slow when it comes to love. She was expecting him to be some kind of a love expert or anything around that area. It seemed like as if she knew more about love than he did, or was he just fooling around?

Pulling her away to get to talk to her was really unnecessary. She just feel embarrassed about the whole incident and how could he act normal? She guessed it wasn’t a big deal for guys to have , but for her it was, and worse, she lost her ity to a friend. She lost her most important treasure without her even remembering how and why it happened. It just did and she still felt really miserable about it.

As much as she loved Yeon Ah, seeing her with Luhan crashed her heart. She knew she wasn’t at fault that she was just naturally gorgeous, lovable and beautiful, but why did the guy that she liked had to like Yeon Ah? Of all people, why must it be the two people that she adored?

‘I hate this. I hate everything.’

She asked Luhan to leave her alone, and he did hesitantly. She told him that she needed to talk to someone privately on the phone which was a fat lie.

She felt a tap on her shoulder, and she already knew who it was from the sound of his footsteps alone. “I’m fine,” she said without looking at the person.

If you run away from it, it will do you no good and will just make things worse. Just face it.” He patted her head and she continued staring blankly at the wall. He was right and she knew that, too.

She sighed and sank down to the floor. She hugged her knees and heaved a heavy sigh. “I know, but it’s not as easy as it sounds. I don’t know if I will even be ready to face all of the consequences. Why is my life like this? Why do I have to go through the most difficult situations? What have I done to deserve all these?” She blinked as she tried to control the tears from falling.

Kevin went down to her level and hugged her. She didn’t cry, but held it all in. Having someone to depend on was what she really needed now. She wanted to be independent, but not in this case or else she will just break down any moment. She couldn’t handle all of these alone.

After a few minutes of comfortable silence with Kevin, they went back inside the practice room and she found Yeon Ah going through a jazz routine while Luhan was being taught by the instructor.

The song played, and Yeon Ah together with Luhan, started to dance slowly. Her friends started to shift on their seats uncomfortably and steal looks at her. She didn’t have to bite her lips to prevent herself from crying because she just grew used to getting hurt by Luhan unintentionally.
