When faced with the possibility of losing someone too precious, people instinctively run away.
Seo Jaehee did exactly that.
"My feelings for you arenât strong enough to invest my time and my life in this. Thatâs why I want to end it."
The moment he saw the cold sincerity in Suinâs face, a chill ran down his spine.
As he realized that the world he had believed to be unshakable was crumbling to piecesâ
He became afraid.
It didnât feel real. And yet, the fear that it might be real was even worse.
He sensed a barrier he couldnât force his way through, and that absolute helplessness crushed him.
He could hardly breathe.
"Letâs take some time."
And so, he walked away.
If he could just get through this moment, he could hold onto her tomorrow.
If this overwhelming emotion could fade even a little, maybe things would change.
"Haâ¦"
His lungs finally unlocked only after he got into the car.
The moment he gripped the steering wheel, his arms trembled violently, his muscles spasming.
He needed to start the engine, but he couldnât.
His emotions had overtaken him, locking up his entire body.@@novelbin@@
"Lee Suin."
In the end, he dropped his burning forehead against the wheel.
"Suin-ah."
