"Why are you here?"
Sage stood there, at the freezing cold. Without any visible emotion in her face.
She just stared at the man with mere confusion.

Why is he acting like this?

"I just missed you."
She manages to whisper.

"I told you I have a lot to do, did I not? Sage! Why are you so immature? Can't you even understand how tired I am of this and that already?"
He glares at her with an unfamiliar face.

Sage's eyes glistens, warming even more.
She was about to cry.

"I know, I'm sorry."

But why are you being like this to me?

Why, so suddenly?

"It's late. You should go home."
He says and closes the gate.

Sage nods her head.

"I understand, Eun Woo."

She tries to smile but her eyes betrayed her.

She started crying.
...

"Ah. Alright."
She whispers to herself once again as she take her wallet inside her pocket.

She doesn't have any money to ride a bus home.

She needs to walk.
Or maybe just sleep on the streets.

"I am alright. I am not--"

but just as she was about to lie to and console herself,
she started sobbing.

"Aish. This is driving me crazy! He's growing a distant feeling towards me, I haven't even eaten and I don't have money to ride a bus! Fucking life!"

She shouts, not caring about anyone who could hear her.

"I mean, I fucking love him! Why is he-- why is he being like this?"
She cries her heart out.
Not even letting herself breathe properly.
She complains and complains.
"I gave up everything just to be with him, was I mistaken?"

"Breathe out, will you?"
A hand pat her shoulders, and just before she could realize.
She was already crying on to his embrace.
A warm embrace that only Chase could offer her right now.

"Aish. Why are you being like this?"

"Chase, I.. He's so unfair!"

Eun Woo smirks as he look at them.

"I guess I did not have to come after her at all."

He walked away while clenching his fists. He never felt so enraged before.
Why is she with that fucking loser?

He was just walking when someone threw a punch into his face.

"You think you look cool after making her cry, didn't you?"

A tall man, maybe an inch or two taller than Eun Woo appeared before his eyes.
