Chelsea's POV

"Jungwon, Chelsea... can I talk to you guys for a few?" Seri asked

Jungwon and I looked at each other, before we could talk... someone already answered for us.

"No." Our friends said in unison

"Shh." I looked at them

"About what?" Jungwon asked coldly

"Just a few things I want to say to you two, I swear it's nothing bad." Seri said

"No/okay." Jungwon and I said

We looked at each other confusedly.

"Okay, you can answer it." Jungwon said

"We can talk, but not here." I said

She nodded and started walking. We followed her from behind.

"Why did you agree?" Jungwon whispered

"I see nothing wrong with talking." I whispered back

"Just to remind you, that's my ex. She was my girlfriend like 2 weeks ago." He said

"So what? Why? Still haven't moved on?" I said sarcastically

"Stop, you know it's not that. It just feels a bit awkward, you know." He said

"Don't worry, there's nothing to worry about." I said

Seri walked upstairs until we reached the rooftop of the school.

"So... uhmm, all I wanted to say is..." Seri started

Is..?

"Is...?" Jungwon said

"Is... I know I haven't been the best to you, Chelsea. I'm sorry for that, I guess I was just blinded with the thought of losing Jungwon. The day I found out you two are getting married, I instantly knew that I already lose. When we broke up, that's when I realized that I needed to lose you to focus on myself... my health. For now, I want to focus on myself and I want to thank you for showing me what I need. I also wish you two the best, I mean it." Seri said and smiled.

She's about to leave.

"Seri..." Jungwon called

She looked back.

Jungwon held his hand out for a handshake.

"I wish you the best too and live happily. Always take good case of yourself." He said

Seri smiled and shake his hands.

"Thank you, Jungwon." Seri said

She looked at me as I smiled at her. I opened my arms widely in offer to hug her. She hesitated but still gladly hugged me.

"Thank you, Seri. Also... I'm sorry, I know someday you'll find the right person for you and someone who truly deserves your love." I said while hugging.

I can feel her head nod.

We broke the hug.

"See you around." I said

"Probably not." Seri said

"Why?" I asked

"I'm moving with my parents to USA. They got a promotion at work and got transferred there." Seri said

"You're going with them?" I asked

"Basically, yeah. Plus, maybe I'll be able to find the peace that I need for myself there. I'm tired of being the antagonist in your story, I want to have my own story where I can be the protagonist whether if it's about romance, self love, maybe even adventure. Anything will do, I just don't want to be that 'bad guy' anymore." Seri said followed by a little giggle.

This time, I hugged her without any hesitations.

"I'm really really sorry for ruining the bond you two had together. I'm really sorry." I whispered

I felt a bit teary but I held it in.

I heard her chuckle a little before hugging me back.

"You don't have to be sorry, maybe you two were really destined to be for each other. Plus, I think it's for the better. I saw myself getting destroyed while being in a relationship, I never took care of myself instead I focused on him alone. This time, I'll be good to myself and I'll focus on me." She said

"Thank you, thank you... Thank you, Seri. Remember, from now on... if you feel lonely in the US, just call or text me I'll respond." I said and smiled

Jungwon's just looking at us with a smile on his face.

"I'll take that in mind, thank you also." Seri said before letting go of the hug.

"Maybe you'll find your 'the one' in the States." I joked

She laughed and shook her head.

"We'll never know, maybe but for now... I'm not looking for romance yet." Seri said

"Time will come." I smiled

"You're right, uhmm... I'll go now. I have to pack my things." Seri said

"Take care, Seri." I said

"You too." She said and smiled at me and to Jungwon.

She turned her back and left.

"I guess that went well." I looked at Jungwon

"Mm... our final closure went nice I guess. Thi is the closure." He said

I nodded.

"Let's go?" Jungwon asked

I nodded, he grabbed my hand and intertwined it together before we left the rooftop.

We went to our friends.

"How did it go? Did anyone fight or what?" Zia asked

"Nah, it actually went well. We settled our quarrel." I said

"Weird, is she gonna die or something? That's why she's making amends with you?" Ni-ki said

"Hey! Don't say that! It's not like that, she's going to US and she's tired of being the antagonist of our story." I said

"Antagonist? What's that?" Sunghoon asked

"Somewhat like a villain." Jake answered

"Oh, I see." Sunghoon said


Jungwon and I just got home, as soon as we arrived at our room I flopped on the bed. He looked at me and stared.

"What?" I asked, he just smiled and faced me. He hugged my waist, he's being so clingy.

"What are you doing? You're so clingy, Won." I chuckled

"We're getting married in a week yet your brother still haven't woken up yet." Jungwon said

"I know right... I miss him." My eyes started to become watery. My looked up and my lips quivered from trying to stop my tears from falling.

Jungwon seemed to noticed, he slightly hovered over me and wiped my tears.

"Hey, don't cry. He'll wake up, soon. Okay?" He kissed my forehead, I slightly smiled at him.

My phone started ringing, Jungwon sat up and so did I. I checked my phone and saw Jennie's caller id. I answered the call.

"Hello, unnie." I started. My eyes started to form tears again due to the call I received.

"Daniel's what?" My tears started flowing.


Daniel...


I'm so sorry for the late update, I got caught up with school but I'll be less busier now because I finally graduated from... Junior year? Senior? College? That's a secret for now!
