"I like you," I shut my eyes real tight as I shoved the bear to his chest.

I peek a little. I feel my heart break seeing his face painted with guilt.

"I'm sorry," The words I was most scared to hear finally came out of his mouth. I didn't want to cry but I did anyway.

"It's fine," I answered with a smile as I wipe the stupid tears off my cheeks, "It's my fault for being so dumb thinking my best friend since childhood would love me more than just a friend. It's alright, I'm fine. I'm just way too ambitious. Pfft! What was I thinking!? Golden boy liking Ms. Piggy? Yeah, right." I'm so stupid. My heart breaking into pieces as stubborn tears roll down my cheeks as I wipe it with the back of my hand.

"Sierra, I'm so sorry." He felt pity. I hated that.

"I'm fine. I'll see you tomorrow in Chemistry."

"Passengers traveling to Korea may now board."

Life is just like a baggage. When it's overweight, you've got to let go of some things in order to move on.

But here I am, letting go of everything. Of everyone... Of him...

I, Sierra Lee, a coward, a fatty, a nerd, a total loser, running away from everything.

Well... I guess I'll see you when I see you.

I sat up from my bed as the sun hit my vision reminding me that I haven't slept again.

Grabbing my phone from my nightstand, unplugging it from the charger and opening it.

(2) missed calls from Manager Unnie

(29) missed calls from Lee Seojun Oppa

I dialed my brother's number just to see as of why he had to dial my number 29 times.

It rang for about two times before almost destroying my eardrums by yelling, "야! Are you crazy?!"

"No, you might be. 왜?" I answered. I slip off my covers and stood in front of the large window by the side of my bed with a very beautiful view.

"I called you for like a MILLION times!" He yelled. Yes, my brother is that exaggerated. Well, you would be if you had all your seven ex girlfriends ruin your apartment for eight times. Eight times cause he had one psycho girlfriend who did it twice.

"Dear brother, please calm down. My ears are bleeding." I sighed, "So why'd you call? Is your apartment ruined again?"

"No!" He answered immediately, "Well, I'm dating this girl and I am serious-"

"You've said that the last time as well." I answered. I put the phone on speaker as I brush my hair and sit in front of my vanity.

"Well, maybe I did but this time... It's like fate! Seora-ah, I'm not kidding. I feel it. Like I really love her, she's my everything. In fact, I want you to meet her." I raised my brows.

My brother never introduced me to his girlfriends which made me think he might be serious about this one.

"Sure. What's really name?" I asked, putting back the phone to my ear.

"Jung Da Won. She's really pretty. A fashion designer, and knows about skincare and nails and stuff so I think you two will get along really well. And! She's a noona of an idol." I raised my brows. Again. I've got a habit of raising my brows which is why people often mistake me as a b*tch.

"She sounds interesting. Which idol?" I asked.

"Hey, I'm a Major in the ARMY. I don't know that kind of stuff." I rolled my eyes, "Anyways, I think tomorrow at seven P.M, so clear up your schedule for me because that's her only day off."

"알았어, see you." We said our goodbyes as we hang up.

I texted my Manager Unnie that I just woke up before getting ready. I was wearing a silk shorts and silk top so I cover myself with the silk robe that goes with it.

Walking out of my room, squinting my eyes as my apartment was so bright. The walls were glass and the furnitures were almost all white. I lived on the highest floor so I could see all of Seoul.

Walking to my kitchen to prepare my breakfast. I'm a model an it's important to stay fit if you want to keep your job.

All I had in my fridge was vegetables, fruits and everything organic.

I've lost tons of weight during my "Moving On" stage and I finally got the body I wanted thanks to him. I also got scouted as a model while roaming around the mall looking for my brother. It was really hard to go on diet once I was done with the "Moving On" stage, but I've gone this far, I ain't going to stop.

So a more gym and more vegetables and less junk food. So now, even on winter I got that summer body. Cringe.

I dipped my wheat bread to my scrambled eggs and put it on the hot pan by the stove to make myself a French toast. I sliced some kiwi and strawberries and dump them inside my blender for a fresh smoothie. My favorite.

I played some music since I lived alone and it's really quiet. It also doesn't help that my apartment was also fit for four people.

I had three large guest rooms and I rarely have people over.

Sometimes, I ask my staff to sleep over because some of them have to ride a train to get home but they get really shy and embarrassed.

"Fire~" I rolled my eyes. There goes my new neighbors again.

Some noisy boys moved in next door last month and I haven't seen them but I heard them. It was like a frat house next door.

I once sent a plate of my blueberry muffins as a welcome but no one answered so I left it at there door and the next day the plate was returned to my doorstep and it was washed and empty with a note that said "Thank you," in both English and Korean language with a smiley face.

I bring my breakfast to the coffee table and decided to eat at the living room. Clicking the house remote so the windows get tinted so I could watch tv.

"Up next! Got7's Fly!"

I frowned and skipped the channel, "Everyday... every night... Feel like a fool." I shut my tv off in frustration.

He's everywhere!

I jumped as I heard something crash from outside as my alarm went on.

I ran to the door and clicked the alarm of my lock off. I grab the doorknob as I opened it the knob fell off.

I gasped as the door opened to find a tall man crouching on the ground.

I knelt down and asked, "아저씨, 괜찮아요? 어머! 어떻게?!"

He groans and slowly got up. His face was covered with a black mask as he answered with a raspy voice saying, "I'm fine." He hissed rubbing his side, "Although your door."

He pointed to my door as I followed and found my doorknob bent and the screen where I type the code was cracked.

"어머! What happened?" I gasped.

"I tripped on my shoelace on the way out. I'm sorry," He sighed, "I'll just give you my number and you could text me the damages. I'll pay you right away."

"I... Yeah, sure. I'll um... Just get my phone." I stood up and walked inside,

"Also," I turn around, "You forgot to tie your robe."

I gasped seeing my robe was fully open. I immediately cover myself and ran to my room.

"Aish! 진짜!"I cursed at myself. I grab my phone and walked back outside hoping I don't look as red as a tomato.

We exchanged numbers. "Okay, I'll uh... Text you."

"By the way, I'm 김 남준. I live next door. Nice to meet you."

"이 소라. Nice to meet you."
