he wasn't exactly sure what made him say that, but somehow it came over his lips.

apparently yeji's expression didn't change at all. "you don't have to tell me."

"i know." he murmured. "but i feel like i should talk about it to someone, at least once in my life.
it's that simple, no one ever loved me. neither my parents, friends or any girlfriend i ever had. i am just seunghoon, who is an asshole, so who'd even waste a thought on me. i don't even mind, if anyone hates me."

but when spilling his heart out, he realized this probably was only partly true.

yeji felt like throwing up; she felt so guilty, for how much she had used seunghoon. "meanwhile my heart is tearing up from all the love, i can't express." she gave him a weak smile. "i don't hate you."

after a while she spoke up again. "but why did you hate me at first?"

"because you reminded me so much of myself."

"and yet we're still so different."

for the first time since they had met, she saw real emotion's on seunghoon's face; single tears dropped down his cheeks and without hesitating she wrapped her arms around him.  i better don't fuck this up, like everything before.

somehow they ended up crying and sobbing in each other's embrace, neither wanted to let go. it was as if the other was the only things in the world they could hold onto.
