The next day, Ara tried again only to fail miserably. At least she made him laugh.

She gave him the ice cream and for a split second his fingers touched her wrist.

She pulled back wincing.

Jimin stared at her confused. She looked down at her feet.

Jimin reached out and took her hand. He gently lifted the sleeve and let out a soft gasp.

She bit her lip trying to contain the tears longing to escape her eyes. But her inner feelings betrayed her as a lone tear ran down her pale cheeks.

Jimin noticed cause he looked at her guiltily.

Suddenly, he let go of her hand and started to lift his own sleeve.

Ara gasped as she noticed the thin white lines carved on his wrist.

"Jimin, I- "

Jimin interrupted her by jotting down on his notebook hurriedly. He gave her the note before smiling gently.

"Don't worry. You're not alone."
