The only thing I wanted was sometime, alone. The words Dino said few minutes ago were too difficult for me to handle. Trying hard not to break down and confess my feeling is difficult. After shopping Dino brought me to a small garden.

"Why did you bring me here? Let's go back home" , I got up but he pulled me down. "I brought some ice cream. I know you are sad about something. I won't force you to tell me. But your sadness can go away just by eating ice cream. So, here it is", he said giving me three packets of ice cream.

I took the ice cream packets and we started eating. "Since when did you start liking Mina?" , I asked even though knowing that I'm the one who going to end up getting hurt. " It's been almost five months, I think. But realised it just a week before. Do you think she likes me?", he asked. "I don't know. We have never talked about this", I said. He turned to me getting closer to me and requested " Please ask her if she likes someone. Please" . "Okay, stop doing that", I agreed eventhough it hurts.

They reached home. Y/n helped aunty in keeping the things. She went to her room and locked the door. As soon as y/n locked her door , all the feelings she had bottled up came out. Helping a person to get his love is a good thing but it hurts when that person it is the one who you love. The time he confessed his feelings for Mina, was the time she realised it was not just a crush but love. She loved him. She knew he liked Mina, she felt it but her love for him overshadowed it. She knew this was going to happen some day but never knew it will be this soon. She kept on crying , trying not make any sound.

After some time:
"Y/n-ah, dinner's ready." , Seokmin shouted outside her room. Y/n looked at herself through mirror, her face was quite red , puffy eyes, tears stain were visible. If she goes out now like this Seokmin will ask her hundreds of question which she won't be able to answer. "Y/n, are you there?", he asked once again in a worried tone. "Yes", she opened the door wearing a face mask which she luckily found. "Why are wearing the face mask and why your voice sounds so different? ", he asked. 'I wish I could tell you the whole thing but I can't", she thought. This was the only thing she didn't share with Seokmin. She said " Just because, I wanted to. About my voice I had ice cream earlier. I'll come in few minutes till then you can start". "Okay, But come soon", she nodded. He went back and she closed her door.

Y/n's pov :
I closed the door and went towards the sink in the barhroom. I removed the face mask and washed my face. My eyes were still puffy, the tear stains were not that visible.

I went outside. "Y/n come we were waiting - Oh what happen to your eyes ,did you cry. Did someone say something to you. That's why you put face mask, didn't you. Just tell what happen and who did this. I'll make sure that person-",
I cut off Seokmin who getting angry and said, "Don't worry, I was washing my face and some soap went in my eyes. I started rubbing my eyes , so they are red. Don't worry everything is fine. You are there to protect me , aren't you?". "Yes I am here to protect you. Just tell me what's bothering you and I'll be there", he said in a sweet tone while patting my head.

Sometimes, just talking with Seokmin can help you get over your worries. We started to have dinner. I didn't talk much with Dino cause he went back to his room after having dinner. Meanwhile, me and Seokmin were helping aunty in cleaning the dishes.

Me and Seokmin talked for a while and went back to my room. Tomorrow my parents will come back and I'll go back my house.

She kept on thinking about all the things that happen today. Slowly she felt her eyes heavy and slept.
