Later on that day,

I learned that you fought with Jay after hearing that he cheated on me,

or rather,

when he's been cheating with me.

Under the moon,

we were together,

not uttering a single word,

but was still able to console one another.

you lost your friend you tried hard to hold on to.

and I lost my heart which I tried hard not to give so easily.

I hate to think that I was the fling,

and that I was the one Jay didn't choose.

Even until the end of our non-existent relationship,

he chose the other girl,

unlike what he promised me.

It made me question why he did that? And if I was ever worthy of one pure love.

Your starlit eyes that hold the universe.

It looked upon me with pitiful eyes,

just like our first meeting in the café,

when I was broken by the same man.

Jay broke a million promises but I always found myself believing,

yet the pain I felt is too much now.

I am not holding onto promises anymore.

"Mirae..."

You called.

"...Hmm?" I silently hummed as I continued to stare into those hypnotising starlit eyes.

They were tempting me to come closer,

they were telling me to just look upon them.

"C-Can I..." You let out with a shaky breath.

Heeseung, why do you seem so.... nervous?

"...Can I be honest with you?"

"I like you."

"No, I... I think I love you."

"....and I love you too much to let you go again."

And just then, with those begging eyes, you asked the same question.

"So, can you stay by my side forever?"

Heeseung, I have autophobia.

Can it be a good excuse to say yes,

and not confess my conflicted feelings to you this quick?

Your fast waves crashed through me again.

I-...

I'm still confused.

I...

I don't think I can love someone easily anymore.
