"I-I.."
his eyes teared up as I looked up at him, trying to smile
i held out my hand to comfort him
"I'm sorry, it's just..
Are you sure?"
he was shaking as he let go of my hand
"I don't deserve you. I'm giving you so many- well, too many problems. If I wasn't here in the first place, then you and Jaemin would live fin-"
i was in disbelief
i pulled him into an embrace, my heart aching
he should never say that
he should never, ever doubt his existence
no one should.
"Don't say that, Renjun-ah.. You're still our best friend. Well, you're Haneul's partner too."
Jaemin stated, swallowing his sobs
Renjun was shaking, breathing heavily
at first he didn't accept the hug
but after what Jaemin said, he hugged on tight and cried on my shoulder
"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm so so sorry, Haneul and Jaemin. I'm so sorry."
it broke my heart to hear that
why apologize for something like that?
"It's okay. We'll sort everything out."
I tried assuring him
though deep inside, I still don't know what would happen to us
there was only so much that we could do.

"Well then, what shall we do with those three?"
I rolled my eyes
"How much money does the other boy have?"
"I heard he was quite wealthy too. Considering he changed from different private schools, one to another."
"His parents' company rivals ours and we can't possibly let them date!"
"They believe in that true love bullshit, when in this cruel world, only exists business and money. They wont survive if they'd run away."
"How about we assault the other boy?"
"Assault? What could we possibly take from him?"
"Threaten his parents, might be giving up their company for their lovely little child."
"What a brilliant idea! We could set up someone to stalk- rather, hunt this boy while we have a holiday as we discuss more about business!"
"We'll do that. I'll just simply be contacting someone I know. He's quite skilled, I've heard."
"Well, those shameless kids can't do anything about it now. They'll cower."
"Perfect planning."
