"Eunbi please...let's talk." Sowon-unnie pleads to me from the other side if the door, and I feel my heart break.

She never sounded this broken.

"Look, I'm sorry, Eunbi. Please, let's just—"

"Come in." I say coldly, hiding the blade in my drawer.

Sowon-unnie opens the door, and stares at me with sadness in her eyes.

I could feel myself go weak with that gaze.

It's because of me that she's like this.

Eunbi, stop. I mentally scold myself, You need to stop being so soft.

"So what is it that you want to talk to me about?" I break the ice, raising an eyebrow at Sowon-unnie, I feel guilty, knowing that I'm being disrespectful.

"I'm sorry..." She mumbles, and I feel sincerity in her voice.

"For what?" I ask, confused. Why is she sorry?

"I was the reason why you got sent to the hospital."

"Isn't in your heart?
I wonder when you threw me out."
