The room was dead silent. Neither one of them talks. Krystal is just fiddling with her fingers, while Kai’s gaze is fixed on the UCLA envelope.

“Why didn’t you tell me?” His voice was soft, calm, but it’s thick with disappointment.

Krystal didn’t answer, its not like she doesn’t want to, but she cant find her voice.

Kai let out a mocking laugh, “I am so stupid.” He mumbled, and Krystal swears a tear escaped her eyes again. Kai stood up, and walked to Krystal. “Don’t cry.” He said, wiping her tear. “You know im madly in love with you, and I’m putti
