Eun Ae walked home, lost in thought. She couldn't shake off the feeling that something had shifted between her and Joon Woo. When she arrived at her apartment, she flopped onto the couch, trying to process her emotions.
Meanwhile, Joon Woo walked back to his own apartment, his mind racing with thoughts of Eun Ae. He couldn't believe he had held her hand, and he couldn't understand why he had felt the need to pull away.
As he entered his apartment, he was greeted by the familiar sight of his cluttered room. He dropped onto his bed, running his hands through his hair. What was he doing? He didn't know how to deal with these feelings.
As the night wore on, both Eun Ae and Joon Woo struggled to fall asleep, their minds consumed by thoughts of each other. Little did they know, their lives were about to become even more entwined.
Eun ae's pov..
I lay in bed, feeling empty. My apartment, where I live alone, felt quiet and hollow. I thought about my life and how I have no parents or family to rely on. Only my friend Beom Seok knows the truth.
But tonight, the silence felt heavy. I thought about Joon Woo and what happened between us. I tried to forget, but my mind wouldn't stop thinking about him.
I tossed and turned, remembering Joon Woo's words and face. I didn't understand why he affected me so much. I thought I had built walls around myself, but he somehow got through them.
Eventually, I fell asleep, tired from thinking. But even in sleep, I knew I couldn't escape the truth. I'm alone, and I need to be okay with that. I need to find happiness in the quiet and strength in being alone.
Tomorrow, I'll face the world again, alone but strong. I'll put on a smile and pretend everything is fine. But deep down, I'll keep searching for something to fill the emptiness inside me.
The next day, I woke up feeling a little better. I told myself to focus on the present and not think about Joon Woo. I got dressed and ready for school, trying to distract myself with my daily routine.
As I walked to the bus stop, I saw people going about their day, laughing and chatting with each other.

I walked to school, my backpack slung over my shoulder. The sun was shining, and the air was crisp. I liked days like this, where everything felt fresh and new.
As I approached the school gates, I saw my friends chatting and laughing. My best friend, Beom Seok, waved at me from across the yard. I smiled, feeling a sense of belonging. School was one place where I didn't feel alone.
