Jaejoong's POV

I got out from my apartment to search for Boa. I felt bad that she had to find out that way. I wanted to at least tell her myself but things didn't really work out that way. I searched around the nearby places but there were no traces of her.

I almost gave up and walked towards my apartment when I got reminded of the place that she often goes to. I grabbed a taxi and rode there.

I went inside the bar that she frequents. I didn't even have to look around. She was in the same place that she always sat at. She was sitting there alone with a beer glass.

"Boa." I went towards her.

"What are you doing here?" She said as she looked up from her phone that she was busy with.

"I need to clear things up." I told her.

"Really? But I think I kinda got everything I need to know." She said with a smirk.

"What do you mean?"

"Oh c'mon Jaejoong...your eyes told me everything...from the moment you saw her this afternoon, the way you looked at her is enough to tell me what was going on." She said calmly taking a sip of the beer.

"I'm sorry." I told her although I was a bit taken aback at her reaction.

"She's that girl, isn't she?" She asked me like she knew something.

"Hmm?" I said confused.

"The girl that you couldn't forget...and somehow in some way used me to get over her." She said as she looked away from me.

"No..Boa..that's not..." I tried to deny it.

"No...Jaejoong...you don't need to explain anything." She said stopping me from speaking further.

"So...I've been thinking...and I've finally decided to just let you go. How can I even compete with a girl that you always had in your heart for years? So...as a goodbye...let me buy you a drink." She said with a smile and got the waiter to get me a beer too.

"I don't have anything to say." I told her with a sigh.

"Hey...don't feel so bad...can't you see I'm already over you? You're not that great of a guy for me to feel that sad." She said jokingly.

"I guess you're right." I told her with a little laugh.

It was late when I got home. I went in tired and ready to sleep. Then I saw Soojung sleeping on the couch. I completely forgot that she was waiting.

"She should have just gone back. I can't believe she fell asleep waiting." I thought to myself as I carried her into my room so that she can sleep comfortably on the bed.

I tugged her into bed and sat next to her looking at her sleep. I smiled to myself thinking it was really happening. The girl I kept in my heart for years loves me too.

I switched off the lights as I got out from my room and lied down on the couch to sleep. But I couldn't fall sleep afraid that all this could just be a dream when I wake up tomorrow.

Krystal's POV

I opened my eyes to an unfamiliar surrounding. I looked around trying to remember. Then, it finally hit me.

"Right...I caused quite a scene yesterday." I told myself as I let out a sigh.

I got off from the bed and peek from the partly opened door. I was kinda embarrassed to face Jaejoong after everything that happened.
