I've been worrying much more these days. Misook has fallen into a depressed mood.

Jaehyun hasn't been returning her calls.

He sometimes wouldn't even pick up. If he did, it would only be brief.

  Misook never had a huge appetite, but it's been decreasing even more recently. She's probably worried, or stressed.

I want to help her.

My feelings have deepened even more.

"Misook!" I cried. "Please listen to me!"

No answer.

"Misook!" My voice broke as a sob escaped my lips. She was staring blankly at the wall. She hasn't moved all morning. I don't think she even ate yesterday. Her phone buzzed. I looked down to see the notifications.

4:50. MISSED CALL: YUNJI (2)

4:55. YUNJI: MISOOK ANSWER ME RIGHT NOW

5:00. YUNJI: HOW COULD YOU DO THIS? I THOUGHT WE WERE FRIENDS

5:02. MISSED CALL: YUNJI

5:05. YUNJI: JUST ANSWER ME ALREADY

NOW. YUNJI: Fine, I see how this is going to end...

"I'm worried for you, Misook. I care about you. Please hear me."

Misook let one tear fall from her eye.

"Please." I rested my hands on her shoulder. I could've sworn she twitched at my touch; as if she could actually feel me. "I love you, Misook."
