DAHYUN'S POV

"Stop visiting him." I didn't answer back. "You may go." I sighed and walked away from her. Eunwoo followed me, but he asked me when he noticed that I wasn't going towards the parking lot.

I went to the chapel of the hospital. I kneeled and prayed to God. At this moment, it's best to ask Him and talk to Him.

I prayed that Mina will understand my side, too. She was never hated before and even though she's in a relationship with the guy I like, I never hated her. I have no right to condemn her.

And I also prayed for Jimin's fast recovery. I want to see him smile from afar, with Mina. I want to see him diss me and hate me. I would rather hear his disses than seeing him lying on the bed, half-dead.

After praying, I walked towards Eunwoo who is waiting outside. I smiled at him, but he looked worried. "Don't worry about me. I'm okay."

"But..." he stopped from walking, so I did, too. He pointed my left cheek, "Your cheek is swollen."

"Don't worry about my cheek." I sighed, "Let's go to the sea."

"What?" He was stunned.

"I just wanna go and see the stars--"

"Then, I know a better place." Eunwoo put his hand around my shoulder. We walked out of the place. We even passed by the ICU and we both saw Mina sleeping on Jimin's hand. I sighed.

Maybe they're right. Maybe, Jimin isn't the right guy for me. Maybe, I'm being stubborn. Maybe him and Mina are really destined for each other.

"What are you thinking?" Eunwoo asked as he opened the car's door for me. I entered and he hopped in as well.

"I was thinking of Jimin and Mina." I answered. I really don't want to tell lies since I'm afraid of lying. My mom taught me to be always truthful, though it will cost my life. It's better to live in a world of truth.

"Why?" He started driving to that place where he wanted to take me. A place better than the sea.

"Maybe I should stop liking Jimin, right?" I faced him, but he has no reaction. "Maybe I should forget him." I looked away from him and stared outside the window. "Though I know that it's hard to forget your first love."

He changed the topic, "Are you hungry? Let's grab some snacks before going to that place."

My legs hurted from walking. He told me that it's a quick walk--basically, like a stroll in the park, but no. We went to this mini hill and there's a tree in the middle.

"Eunwoo-ah!" I called him for help. I am really tired. He placed the food near the tree and came back for me. He offered his back and I jumped on it. After reaching the tree, I hopped off from him and thanked him.

He sat down and started eating, while I was drowned by the nightsky. This is by far one of the best nightskies I have ever seen in my life.

And he's quite right, this is much better than the sea.

"Aren't you hungry?" I tilted my head towards his direction and smiled. He handed me a pair of chopsticks and I gladly took it from him. I sat beside him and ate the soondae that we both ordered. "Ah, the nightsky is so refreshing."

"Thank you for bringing me here." I told him and he faced me. He just stared at me. "It made me feel better."

"Why are you so kind?" He asked out of the blue. "You're like Cinderella."

"There's no reason for me to be mad at people." I answered him and finished my soondae. I ate it fast and took the ramen. I'm still hungry, tho. "I understand them."

"You're being too considerate." Eunwoo said and faced the nightsky. Under the nightsky is the pretty cityscape. The city lights are so attractive that it will make you stare at it forever. It's like hypnotizing you.

Something popped into my head, so I asked him, "Eunwoo-ah," he faced me with a full mouth. "I have something to ask you."

"What is that?" He then swallowed his food.

"Why did you tell me that Jimin is dangerous and I should stay away from him?" I asked hesitantly. He looked stunned for a moment. "It's okay if you won't answer for now."

"Look at Jimin's condition right now," he became serious. It's my second time seeing him like that. "He's in a very bad state and it's because he's done something he should not have done. If you keep on staying beside him or near to him, you might be dead any minute, as well."

I pouted, "What did he do?" I asked him, but he didn't reply. Then an idea popped inside my mind. "Did Mina's parents sent goons to beat Jimin up?"

His eyebrows met, "What? Why?"

"Because Jimin took Mina's virginity away!"

He laughed out loud, almost rolling on the grass. He composed himself first before talking again, but he can't help it.

"Cha Eunwoo! Compose yourself!" I yelled, but he kept on laughing. And then I noticed that he's almost rolling down the hill, so I stood up immediately and took his hand. I dragged him back to the tree. "Aigoo, you're so heavy!"

He breathed deep and smiled at me. He wiped tears of joy away from his eyes and continued on eating his food. I rolled my eyes and finished my food, as well.

I woke up because I felt like getting hot.

I opened one of my eyes and saw a clear blue sky and a tree. Wait. What? I got up and looked around my surroundings. I'm still at the hill and Cha Eunwoo is leaning his back on the tree while sleeping so soundly. He's still wearing his uniform, but his while shirt's button is open.

I checked myself if I still have my clothes on and thankfully, I still have them. But I noticed that I'm wearing Eunwoo's coat.

I tried shaking him and he woke up. He rubbed his eyes, stretched and looked at me.

"Good morning." He greeted.

"Good...morning?" I asked, unsure of greeting him. I stood up and handed him his coat. He took and wore it and stood up. I started picking up our trash and we both went to his car.

What exactly happened yesterday night? I can't remember anything. We both hopped in his car and he started the car's engine.

"Ah, Eunwoo-ssi," I called him. He hummed, asking. "Can we drop by the hospital? 

"What? Mina told you to stop visiting him--"

"It's not bad to see him outside the windows." I cut him. He had no choice, but to follow me.

We reached the hospital in no time. There's no traffic. We both hopped off and went straight to the ICU. While walking, someone called me from afar.

"Dahyunie?" I tried sighting who that ahjumma is. When she got near me, I realized that it was Jimin's mom.

"Why are you here, ahjumma?" I asked. She looked at me and Eunwoo before answering.

"I told Jimin's girlfriend to go home and to attend classes. I said that I'll be taking care of him for a while." She smiled. So, Mina isn't here? "How about you?"

"We're here to check on him." I replied and she invited us in. I asked her if Jimin is getting better and she said yes. I'm glad that God heard my prayers.

Then we heard a ring from a phone. Mrs. Park fished her phone right away and answered the call. She excused herself for a moment and after a few minutes, she came back.

"Dahyunie," she seemed like she hesitated to ask me. "I have an important business to do. Can you take care of my son for a day?" I was petrified when she asked me such a thing. "Please?"

"U-Uh..." Mina will be furious. "...sure." She hugged and thanked me. She then fled and I was left inside the ICU with Eunwoo.
