22. 「PLACE」

I felt exhausted

Physically and mentally

It didn't go as planned

I returned home around 10PM

Jisung was sitting on the couch

Watching a movie I guess

He quickly ran up to me when he heard me enter

His eyes full of anticipation

He grabbed my hands

And kept looking at me

I sighed

"Our group got third place,"

I gave him a halfhearted smile

Jisung was still staring at me with those eyes

And tilted his head to the side

"What about your solo performance?"

I guess I forgot about that after hearing we placed third

"First place."

Jisung immediately brightened up when he heard that

And began jumping up

Congratulating me

I smiled and thanked him

Still halfhearted

I couldn't handle it

The guilt eating me up

I slipped out of Jisung's grasp

And went to change my clothes and shower

I couldn't look back to see the expression he was giving me

I didn't want to see it
