Byul left Wheein's house with a forlorn expression and arrived at Yongseon's. Still confused, Byul couldn't keep her head straight. Yongseon's expression hardened as he watched her. Yongseon patted Byul's shoulder.
"Where did I go wrong?"
"Let's forget it now."
"...Yongseon-ah"
"I know it's hard, but what's the point of thinking about it all the time? It just makes my heart heavy."
"..I guess so."
Yongseon's words convinced me. I want to forget, but for some reason, I can't. Yes, it'll be okay if Yongseon is with me. Byul tried hard to forget Hwiin. She looked at Yongseon warmly.
"Thank you for believing in me, Byul-ah."
"..I should have chosen you a long time ago."
"It's okay. From now on, I'll make sure you don't get hurt."
"Thank you, Yongseon."
“Have you ever thought about why Wheein suddenly did that?”
"..huh"
The star nodded slightly.
"Wheein, you're a bad kid."
"..why"
"You just give guys and girls a hard time, and I think you caught someone's eye at the club. You want to get married or something."
"...marriage?"
"Don't trust Wheein too much. I told you, good guys are more dangerous."
"..Did Wheein really do that..?"
"I told you so. So when I asked what Byeol-i was going to do, she said she would take care of herself."
"I guess...you don't need me..."
"Our star only gives us wounds-"
For some reason, tears welled up in Byul's eyes from a feeling of inexplicable sadness. Wheein isn't that kind of person... Byul bit her lip hard. What should I do... Wheein will be okay without me, right? As that thought crossed her mind, tears began to fall even more as if she had lost the world. Now, perhaps because she had cried so much, her head felt like it was hurting.
"Don't cry, Star..."
"..too bad.."
"Star, it's okay-."
My mind was in turmoil. What should I do? I wanted to hold onto hope that maybe it wasn't true. My chest felt heavy, as if it were being suffocated. You were always the one who liked me... Byul burst into tears. I'd die if this could just be resolved. So please, I hope it gets resolved somehow... But right now, I hate Yongseon and Wheein, and everyone else. It feels like I'm the only one being abandoned...
