From the very beginning, I loved Cha Taeheon blindly.

So, after much deliberation, I confessed.

"I... I like you..."

"...Really? I'm not interested in you. That's awkward."

"...Even so, I'd like you to think about it just once..."

"...Well, fine. Let's date."

Laughably, that was our beginning.

I already knew. That look in his eyes as if he pitied me, and that attitude as if I were a nuisance.

Still, I was happy. Because in the end, I was dating Taeheon. Because I thought things would get better as we dated.

But he always threw words at me exactly as he thought them, acting as if my feelings afterward were of no concern to him.

Once, I finally couldn't take it and spoke up to him.

I asked why he only said things that hurt, when we were supposed to be a couple. The response that came back was cold as ice.

"If you don't like it, then break up. We're dating because you said you wanted to. I only accepted because I felt sorry for you."

"Since when did you think there was such a thing as 'feelings' between us anyway?"

...

When did it become like this?

I still... I still like you so much...
