I know he doesn't like me.

But he shouldn't treat me like that either.

I let out a heavy sigh before pressing my house PIN.

The paper bag still in my grip. It's the gift from him.

I walk into my room as I throw the bag on my bed.

Why can't I be the lucky girl that Jimin would like?

I stare at my feet as I fiddle with my toes. I plopped myself on the bed.

Knock!Knock!

I turned to the door when I could hear the doorknob twisted, it's my dad.

"Are you gonna stay here for all day?"

"Without eating dinner?" He added.

"Dad, I'm not hungry." I shook my head.

"Who would reject food?" Dad shrugged.

"Me?" I raised my brow.

"No you won't." Dad chuckled as he walks to me.

I know he would grab my hand to the dining room now.

"Alright, dad. Give me a minute." I pouted.

"I'll wait." He said as he walked to the door, shutting it.

Before I could change, my phone buzzes.

A text from Park Jimin.

I won't bother looking at it now. I need food. Maybe will reply it later. I'm not getting upset just because he left me.

I dart my way to the dining room where I see my dad is seated.

It's really mouth-watery dinner for real.

"Mira," Dad called after we chug the water.

I just replied with a hum.

"I don't want to ruin your happiness but I wish you won't meet Jimin again," He let out a heavy sigh.

"Why?" I almost choke my water.

"I don't like you seeing him as your patient or as a friend." Dad clasped his hand.

"But I'm his doctor. You can't just say things like this." I protested.

"I'm not being such a bad father for you. But this is for your own sake too. I don't want you to get hurt like this again,"

"Your happiness is all matter." He added before leaving the dining room.

He left me dumbfounded.

How can I do that to Jimin?

But, my dad is right either.

Sometimes, letting go is better than holding on to something that will end up hurting you.


I clear my thought before walking to my room. I take the courage to read the text from Jimin.

Hey, Mira. I'm sorry for leaving you at the store. I wish you can come to my birthday party or I rather say my engagement party this weekend. Wish that you can make it there. ❤️


Why he left the heart there? It hurts me more when I saw that 'engagement' word.

My eyes are getting blurry as I bite my bottom lips.

Stop crying, stupid Mira!

That's how my inner self is screaming and cursing at the weak me.

Sure. :)


I was disheartened by his act. Okay, I get it that I'm his friend. But I never admit it. I don't want to be his friend anymore. It's hurt.






Jimin, I know that between us, it's only me who was hoping for more. And now it's only me who is hurted.
