"chae!"
no, the girl thought, mentally shaking her head as she walked away faster. don't approach me.
"jeon chae!"
a hand landed on chae's shoulder and turned her violently around. chae frowned and glared up at the worried face of park seonghwa's best friend, kim hongjoong.
"what do you think you are doing, breaking up with seonghwa, chae?" hongjoong demanded. "he's devastated!"
"i know," chae mumbled. "i'm not blind to that."
hongjoong frowned. "why did you break up with him? you know that you already promised him that you'd stay, right?"
chae bit her lip. "i-i know, but i can't."
hongjoong groaned. his friend wouldn't stop crying at home, and he's worried for him. he glared at chae.
"why can't you, chae?" hongjoong exclaimed, starting to feel annoyed.
chae shook her head and started walking away.
"i'm sorry, joongie," she says. "i can't tell anyone why."
