Tomorrow With You

Hello & Goodbyes..

DINO

DAEGU UNIVERSITY

I know Monique is thinking of Mina. I also saw that Mina was hurt. But what should I do? Mina is getting married. And I like Monique. I'm happy with what's happening to Monique and me.

We are already in class. But Mina doesn't look at me or talk to me. I knew she was angry. It's been a month since we split up. But we still can't talk properly. Maybe because she avoids knowing to herself that what we had is gone now.

"We should talk" I texted her.

I saw her read my text message to her and she looked at me offering me a curt smile.

Class is over and it is now our break. We decided to talk in the Park. We sat in the chair and we didn’t know who should speak first.

"I like her." I told her. She looks at me crying already by what I said.

"Dino, it's only been a month since we broke up? Maybe you're even glad that I'm getting married because you can't get enough to be with Monique." She accused me.

Yes, she is right. I couldn’t stop being with Monique back then. But she was wrong when she said that I was happy that she was getting married.

I love Mina but not like the love I feel for Monique.

Love? Is this what it is? Is it what I feel about Monique?

I love Mina because she is my best friend. And I don’t want to hurt her.

"Mina, you knew before that I felt differently with her. But I didn't make you feel that. And I won't leave you for Monique because you know you're a friend and I don't want to hurt you. So I held back. For you, Mina . "

She chuckles dryly while crying.

"Enough with restraint so now you're parading her all over Daegu and I'm looking ridiculous and everyone was laughing at me? I became a laughingstock here Dino. You don't even know how it feels."

I sighs. I don’t want this to happen. But I want everyone to know that Monique is mine.

"I'm sorry. But you know that You and I, we're done. You are getting married, Mina. And I'm selfish to ask you this but please let me be happy."

She laughs while crying looking above us.

"So are you saying that I didn't make you happy when we were still together?"

I just bow my head.

Mina stands up in front of me.

"I wish you would be Happy, Dino."

With that she left.

MONIQUE

Na-ri, Bea and Junyoung and I were about to eat at the convenience store when I saw Dino sitting and Mina standing in front of him and they are talking.

We stopped and looked at them when Mina saw me. She approached me, took the coffee I was holding and poured it on the chest of my uniform.

I just stared at the coffee on my chest. I saw Na-ri going to confront Mina but Junyoung and Bea are stopping her. When I raised my face I saw Dino approaching us looking worried.

Everyone who saw the incident stopped and stared at us.

So much for the fresh start, huh?

"I hope you become happy."

That'all Mina had said to me then she left.

Junyoung and Na-ri helped me fix and cover my chest.

Dino was close to me but I ran. I don't want to stay here first. I want to be alone. But I know they followed me to my Bike.

I was removing the lock of my bike when I felt them behind me.

"Monique, Let's Go." Dino said.

But I ignored him and pretended he was just an air.

I cried.

Why am I crying over this?

"Monique, Let's just go. I'm sorry." He grabbed my arm but I jerk it back.

I turned around and continued fixing my bike. But I felt him hug me behind my back.

That's when I broke down.

His warmth.

Caging me. And making me feel that it is okay.

Everything will be okay, If he's with me.

"You take care of her. We're leaving first." Junyoung said to Dino.

"Monique, call me." Na-ri told me but I didn't answer her because my tears were dripping continously.

"Pick us up at the Daegu Highschool parking lot." I heard Dino talking on his cellphone.

He faced me with him, Holding my face. Looking directly into my eyes. "I'm sorry."

I just nods.

Sometime after a Black SUV stopped infront of us.

And I hop on it immediately, Anywhere but here.
