"When you close your eyes, tell me what are you dreaming,

everything I wanna know it all."

Heoni could barely sing as her voice was shaking so much, trying to look all so tough in front of the man in front of her, laid and weak, bleeding.

She didn't know what else to say, if it's too late to confess, and if they're officially each other's, what happens if....he dies?

You're bailing on me, again.

Hyunjin sat beside her inside the ambulance on rush, she couldn't read what kind of a face he had on.

If he's concerned for him or for her, knowing the fact that he doesnt want them together.

And even if the vehicle made a ringing noise, Heoni turns into a stone when Jisung started singing with her.

More like, mumbling, humming.

He held on to her hands, barely.

"Don't cry. I'll make it there, We'll make it there.

I'll fight for you.

Even if it costs 10,000 hours or the rest of my life."

Heoni forces a smile, a quick smile, fading slowly as a strong bright light approaches them.

"An ambulance on the way to ******* hospital was hit by a van on the **** intersection.

The rescue team wasn't able to bring the patient on board to the hospital anymore as they've already found him dead.

Along with the driver, also leaving the other passengers with minor injuries-"

Heoni jolts up from her bed, shaking.

Bandages were wrapped around her, but.... I'm not in the hospital...?

She scans the small, messy, dimmed room.

Crumpled papers flooded the floors, the clothes were everywhere, and everything was just, unorganized.

The drawers were open, a bag laid on the floor, pills scattered on the table, the whole room was a mess.

"Heoni."

Hyunjin leaned on the door frame, she could've sworn he wasn't there just a second ago.

She tugs on the bed sheets in anxiety,

"Why am I here? Where's Jisung?!"

Heoni reads his face this time, he was tired, unbothered even if she has raised her voice, he was still, staring down at her, as a sigh exits his lips, he crosses his arms.

"I'm damn sure you know, he's not there, there's no accident."-Hyunjin bluntly spits his words, now he just stared at the ground.

"DAMN YOU! DID YOU DRUG ME AGAIN?!"

Hyunjin's aura and gaze snaps and changes, it was obvious he wanted to shout at her but he couldn't, it was also very clear how he eyed on the door he wanted to hit, but he thought startling her like this? there's no point anymore.

"When I told you about Seungmin, our classmate. You knew, the only Kim in our class was Yohan.

When I told you, I was eating lunch with him, you saw that I ate alone."

His voice reached the serious tone she didn't like anymore, her body turns full concrete while Hyunjin just spoke like he's mumbling, as if he has explained this a hundred times to a person who can't hear.

She couldn't talk back.

"All this time, you always made me feel like a bad person, when all I did was protect you from people calling you crazy."

He dragged his feet on the way to the table, grabbing a handful of pills on his hand, crumbling them as his hands shook.

"You know, Seungmin's gone because of this. And so was Jisung when I gave the grape juice.."

Hyunjin aggressively threw what he handed on the ground, now startling her even more, who never got the strength to speak anymore. His voice echoed throughout her mind, while tears edged in the corner of her eyes.

"So can you tell me when do you plan on admitting it.... on accepting it?"

Teardrops finally free falls to her cheeks, she tried to zone out so his voice could be inaudible but her eyes blurred, and her breath shook harder as she tried not to scream in pain.

"P-please...d-don't....hyunjin."

She lifts her chin, facing her, the man's heart breaking into pieces, but he couldn't care less anymore, she's been breaking it since day one.

"Well someone's gotta say it? Hmm?"

Heoni slowly shakes her head, her eyes plead him to stop as more tears freed out her eyes, her hands gripping on the sheets so hard her nails dug on her palm. She could've ran out of the room but her body was stuck on the bed.

Hyunjin takes a deep breath and locked his eyes on hers, his eyes screamed out coldness and numbness, yet he was still breaking inside, watching her like this.

She cried silently, almost like a whimpering dog as her eyes never stopped shedding tears for the past minute, they continued running down, quickly wetting her clothes as they turn heavier.

But it's nothing compared to how heavy her chest was, she forgets how to breathe right, she couldn't do anything but plead him to silence.

She knew this'll happen in the future anyway but not right now, not this way.

Hyunjin exhales, looking away as for he couldn't see her like this any longer after what he'd say,

he gulps, gripping on the edge of the table,

"Jisung isn't real....heoni."
