Will you die if you only look at me? Please, work less and look at me more. Please?
Among the countless open chat rooms I entered out of boredom, you were there like a miracle. It felt like my throat was tightening from the very first moment. I felt like I would regret it for the rest of my life if I let you go, so I approached you like a madwoman. I threw my whole heart at you, shook your world, and held your hand in just one day. You, who are only a year older than me. The person who holds and shakes my entire world. But why are you so kind to everyone else but me? Do you know that my insides are burning and rotting black because of that kind smile and those words you give to others? I've locked myself in the prison that is you, filling my entire world with you. My whole universe is crushed by you alone, to the point where I can't even breathe. Why are you still smiling and embracing everyone in such a wide world? Please stop that kindness. Look only at me. Smile only for me. Look at me. Please? Since you've trampled and broken me like this, you have to take responsibility. Look at me, I can't even breathe without you.

Cold, slender fingers intertwined over the hand that was about to grab the front door handle. Then, long arms wrapped around my waist. "……Where are you going?" A voice heavily laden with sleep and low rasping clung to the nape of my neck. This girl, who does nothing but read books and sleep at home all day, somehow senses it like a ghost whenever I try to leave for work and holds me back. "Where else? I'm going to open the cafe. I'm late, Taekyung. Let go." When I bluntly tapped her arms, trying to break free, Taekyung didn't let go; instead, she turned me around and pulled me toward her. She seemed to bury her chin on my shoulder with a low sigh, and soon, quiet whimpering sounds flowed over my shoulder. "Mmm…… Don't go……." With a small sob, the hand clutching my collar tightened. When Taekyung lifted her head, tears were welling up in her eyes, which were framed by deep dark circles. This girl, two years younger than me, looked down at me with reddened eyes filled with thick obsession and sorrow. "Why do you keep trying to go out, huh? Sniff, don't leave me……." "What is a cafe owner supposed to do if they don't open the shop? Stop talking nonsense and go back to sleep." "I don't want to…… You know I can't even breathe without you. Hic, sob…… Just thinking about you going out, smiling at others, and talking to customers makes me go crazy……." Taekyung hugged my neck tightly and began to wail like a child. The nape of my neck, soaked with tears, felt damp and hot. It was a devotion that bordered on disgusting, an obsession so deep it was chilling. "Sob, hic…… Can't you just rest today? Just stay with me, Unnie…… Please? Don't abandon me, please……." Making whining, crying sounds, she rubbed her lips against mine. With a face smeared with tears, she clung to me with her whole body as if she had no intention of letting me go. I sighed in exasperation but indifferently patted her disheveled hair. At my touch, Taekyung sobbed but seemed finally relieved, burying her face deep in my arms and mumbling. "Hic…… Just try going somewhere, seriously……."
