The True Story [2]

Jaemin continued to hang out with Jihee every single day. The same laughter. The same smile. And the same view from Jaeun's window. She would watch them, but this time, her hands would not hurt. The key difference between now and then was that Jaemin would come to Jaeun's room at night. She wasn't lonely anymore.

The reason to why Jaemin kept this routine was because he didn't want the others to become suspicious of the sudden change if he stopped being with Jihee and hung out with Jaeun. She wasn't sure what he exactly meant but since he was the smarter one out of the two, she just went along with the flow. After all, she was grateful that he was spending his precious time with her to begin with. He only wished for the best.

When night came, the two siblings would watch the stars from her window. Jaemin crossed his legs while Jaeun brought her knees to her chest. This was the only time Jaeun felt safe. It was calming. To be with someone who wanted to be by her side.
