Dream High (On-Going)

Chapter 38

Play The Way I Still Love You on loop. Trust me

Ryujin's POV:

"Can you please stay?"

I feel like my whole world stop when I realized who is he pointing to. I slowly lost my smile and my heart started to beat very very fast when our eyes met

"Why do it seems like it so easy for you to leave me?"

The loud cheer from the crowd vanished and I can't see anyone right now but him. He looks so shocked to see me that he can't move and say a single word

"I never expected that I will still lose you after all the sacrifices that I did"

I took a deep breath as I felt a heavy thing on my chest. We're just staring at each other but I can't read his eyes. I can't tell what he's thinking. He's just staring at me

I looked at Sunghoon and realized that this is probably what meant when he said that earlier

When I looked back, my heart shattered into pieces when I saw tears slowly coming out of his eyes. I bit my lips to stop myself from crying too

F*ck! I didn't expect to see him here

I don't want to ruin this special moment for Haruto and the others. I can't let my emotions eat me

Pull yourself, Ryujin-ah!

I bit my lips so hard just to stop myself from tearing up that it started to bleed. I avoided Jaemin's gaze and stood up confidently to face the audience again

"I-It's a pleasure to be a judge on this event..." I tried to flash a smile "I am..."

No matter how hard I try, my eyes still landed on Jaemin who's still staring at me while tearing up

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you like this

"I am Shin Ryujin"

••••••

"I sincerely apologize but can I go now?"

The event just ended and I want to find Jaemin. It's just that it doesn't feel right that I suddenly appeared infront of him after leaving him. I'm sure that he's hurt and shocked at the same time

I need to settle this at least

"I'm sorry, Ryujin-ah. I know that you want to talk to our brother but I think this is not the right time. Let us talk to him for now. He was surely shocked" Lia worriedly said

"It's our fault. We should've told him about it last night" Yuna is now panicking

We're now at the corner of the backstage because we don't want the staff to hear our conversation

"Don't worry about Jaemin. I received a text message from him. He's at that place" Sunghoon suddenly said

"We'll go there to talk to him so don't worry" Karina added

For some reasons, I lost the will to talk to Jaemin. I forgot that he already have a girlfriend. I can't act recklessly. I don't want to be rude and be the villain in his story...
