Her mind was too preoccupied. The image of Dan-Han's hand in that girl's hand kept looping in her mind. He had never looked at any girl before talk more of having one hold his hand and leisurely smile at him like that.

Was this the reason why he didn't want to forgive her? Why he didn't want her back? Was he moving on so soon? She didn't want to think of it, but the girl's smile kept flashing through her mind, and it was taunting.

She shook her head to take those thoughts out of her mind. She was overthinking. She definitely was.

"Eun-sun." In-Ha snapped his fingers before her eyes, jolting out of her reverie.

Her eyes fluttered as she lifted them to him. "Yes."

"Have you been listening?" He asked while she nodded.

"What did I just say?" He asked. Her brows fluttered with embarrassment as she sighed and pursed her lips.

"I'm sorry." She apologised.

"It's okay."

Eun-sun looked at him with curious and apologetic eyes. "What were you saying?" She inquired of him. But he sighed and shook his head.

"It doesn't matter."

"I'm sorry, In-Ha. I was slightly distracted, but tell me what you wanted to say." She urged him. She saw the hesitant look in his eyes, and she encouraged him with a nod.

He sighed and took in a deep breath. His face thoughtfully stared at her, making Eun-sun's countenance change as well. She knew he wanted to apologise to her for what happened in the province, and she also wanted to hear him say it.

"Eun-sun, I'm sorry for what you've been going through recently, and I'm also sorry for what happened in the province. I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable or put you in a bad spot."

"Thank God you know you put me in a bad place. Why did you do that In-Ha?" She asked. "Why did you kiss me?" This was a question she had wanted to ask. She wanted to know what had come over him. All through their stay at the province, he had acted weirdly, and she wanted to know what happened to him.

In-Ha gazed at her, but he couldn't bring himself to answer her question. But the look in her eyes told him she wouldn't give up till she got her answer.

"Do you really want to know?" He asked, and she nodded.

He sighed and leaned a bit closer, and held her hand. Eun-sun looked at his hand over hers before returning her gaze to his face. His face turned a bit more serious, and she wondered if it was so serious that he had to look that way. Anyway, she still wanted to hear it.

"I like you."

She chuckled amusedly when she heard that. That was unexpected. She didn't think In-Ha would dare make a joke when he knew she was still mad at him. But this one got her. She hadn't found a good reason to laugh in days.

But her smile instantly froze when she saw he looked too severe to joke.

"Hmm?" She muttered.

She looked at her hand when he held her hand in his.

"I like you, Park Eun-sun. I really do."

Eun-sun froze the moment she heard that. Her hazel eyes were fully opened, and her lashes didn't bat for a second as she gazed at him in utter shock and disbelief

"You...like me?"

"Yes." He nodded.

In-Ha was surprised when Eun-sun suddenly rupt out into laughter.

"Are you crazy?" She asked in horror as she withdrew her hand while shooting him an incredulous look.

"Eun-sun," He tried reaching for her hand again, but she pulled it away.

"In-Ha, you can't say that to me. How can you say that to me? You can't like me. You're my friend. Dan-Han's best friend!" She told him just in case he had forgotten.

He sighed and lowered his head in shame. But he looked up at her again. "I've told myself this a thousand times. But I can't let go."

"In-Ha, this is selfish. You're being selfish."

"How?" He asked in confusion.

"I'm your friend's woman."

"Who is currently moving on."

"In-Ha, you can't say that. That's mean." She snapped at him. He shouldn't say that to her face.

He sighed when he saw the sad look in her eyes. He leaned closer to her and took her hand in his. "I'm sorry. I don't mean to be a bad friend to my best friend, neither do I want to lose you. If you say I'm selfish, then I am. I can't help that I love you, neither can I stop feeling this way. If I were really trying to be selfish, I'd woo you and ask you to pack your bags and elope with me. You'd be peaceful with me."

"I won't be peaceful with you." She told him as a matter of factly. "You're already a bad friend, Kang In-Ha. You're taking advantage of I and Dan-Han's situation. That already makes you a bad friend." She said. "And how do you expect me to feel when I see you from now on? What do you expect me to do with th..this confession."

He hissed and shook his head as he held her hand tighter, "I don't know. I really don't know, but it has been eating me for months now. I couldn't help it anymore."

Eun-sun was still in shock. She couldn't believe this was happening right now. In-Ha was supposed to be her friend. Dan-Han's best friend. Since when did he even begin to like her?

Wait, what was she to feel with what he had said? Anger? Disappointment? What? She couldn't help but stare at him.

"I can't believe this, Kang In-Ha." She had come for an apology, but who knew she'd be getting this instead. Was Dan-Han even aware of this? He'd be madder at her if he did.

"I'm sorry, Eun-sun. I know this was unexpected, but I couldn't help myself."

"I'm sorry too, In-Ha. But whatever feeling you have for me, you have to let it go. Not just for me and our friendship, but because I love only Dan-Han, and he has been a good friend to you.. Don't break his trust more than we already have."
