the next day, sulhee awoke feeling better than she had the past few days. rolling over to her side to check the time, she noticed she had already been messaged by jisung. she almost forgot that the male had pledged to check up on her daily, and she had to admit that someone showing such concern for her despite the way she initially spoke to him brightened her mood further.

she noticed the males contact was still under aera's name and so, heaving in a deep breath, she changed it to his own name. it hurt to rid of her friends presence from her phone as she'd gone weeks messaging aera's number to feel more connected to her, but it wasn't hers anymore. she'd find another way to passively let go of her best friend.

JISUNG
cleanings good for your
mental state. it is for me
anyway

SULHEE
yeah. in a way its kind of
relaxing

SULHEE
i know we're over the
apologising phase but can
i just thank you?

JISUNG
huh? for what?

SULHEE
for not being an asshole

SULHEE
.. i worded that horribly

SULHEE
what i mean is you had every
right to turn around and tell
me to get lost when i was
being all conceited and snappy
yet you didn't and you stayed
wanting to help me out
since losing aera as im sure u
can imagine I've felt so lonely
i just felt like i had no one to
talk to about how i feel or just
in general

SULHEE
and yet i messaged you three
days ago thinking u were aera
and you're putting in so much
effort to check im ok and offer
help

SULHEE
so i really do owe you a thanks
more than that really

JISUNG
