018: Save You

Time Check; 9:00 pm.

Two hours has passed. Sunghoon wasn't there yet.

Soon enough, Sungkyung's stomach started to grumble. She hasn't eaten yet, but she's planning to have dinner after talking to him. She really won't eat until she tries to fix something first.

Her grumbling stomach wasn't much of help at all so she bought two packs of gummies in a near by mini mart, hoping Sunghoon would be here by the time she finishes her gummies.

Time Check; 9:57 pm.

It won't be long until 10pm is about to strike and it has been 36 minutes since Sungkyung finished eating her gummies.

Sungkyung was starting to lose hope. But some part of her believes that he would still come.

' Maybe he felt sick '

Hoping he would reply, she sent Sunghoon another message.

' Sunghoon. Please come.'

Time Check; 10:11 pm.

Sungkyung was lost at hope. She had finished reviewing her reviewer and lessons. She was now at Chapter 7 in the book she's reading and she has strolled at the almost empty park for him.

And yet, he still hasn't come.

' I think I should go check on him. '

And with that, Sungkyung pulled out her phone and dialed the number Sunghoon gave her.

Her phone started ringing and it wasn't that long until it reached the other line of the phone.

" Hello? "

" Sunghoon. Where are you? I've been waiting for you since 7pm."

" Sorry miss, but we don't know any Sunghoon. You must have had the wrong number. "

Sungkyung's heart broke. Like usual.

Did he just gave her the wrong number, to make fun of her?

" Uhm. Hello miss? " the other line said.

" Yes, I'm sorry for the inconvenience. I'll delete this number immediately. " Sungkyung answered.

" Ok. Thank you." the call ended.

A few minutes has passed since the call. Sungkyung felt weak and stared into the distance, knowing Sunghoon will never be there beside her.

Sungkyung's phone had pinged, she opened the notification and saw that Shin Yuna had posted on Instagram.

And Sungkyung's heart was shattered when she saw Yuna's post.

It was a picture of her and Sunghoon taking a mirror selfie, with the caption....Thank You for tonight, Park Sunghoon xx

Sungkyung can't believe it. He ditched her to hang out with Shin Yuna.

Her heart was now torn and shattered into thousands of pieces like a fragile glass. She stood frozen at her spot and tears streamed down her face.

And soon enough, it started to rain.

Sungkyung didn't bring an umbrella. Nor she didn't care anyways, she just let the rain go down on her as it soaked her clothes.

As the rain got heavier, the more wet she became and the more hot tears went down her cheeks.

Sungkyung was cold and alone.

' How many times do you want to experience pain to finally learn Sungkyung. How many? ' She asked herself.

She doesn't want this. All she ever wanted was Sunghoon's attention and time, but maybe her request was to expensive for her to reach.

The heavy rain poured down her and it even made her more sad and alone.

When a few seconds later, she didn't feel the droplets of the rain anymore. Instead she saw a shadow.

Sungkyung looked up to see an umbrella preventing her to get more soaked than she is now. She turned around to see...

Jeon Doyum.

He immediately brought Sungkyung into his arms and whispered in her ear...

" I'll treat you better. I will save you from him."
