Jungwoo, the basketball captain, was once your boyfriend. You broke up with him after seeing him together with his ex.

You never let him explain because you had already seen them together several times, and all he ever said was that their meetings were just “accidental.”

But you didn’t know if you could still believe him anymore, because it kept happening over and over again, and you were tired of always trying to understand him. In the end, you chose to end things with him.

Weeks passed, and you heard that he was always waiting outside the building of your apartment, hoping to see you, waiting for you to come out so he could talk to you—but you never did.

People began to notice him standing there every day, looking like he was waiting for someone. Even the guard eventually told him to go home before he got sick, but he refused to leave.

You stayed quietly inside your apartment, sitting on the couch, never going out. Yet you kept receiving messages about him—updates from your friends, from strangers, and even daily texts from him. You only read them, never replying.

“Hi, I know you’re mad at me, but please don’t do this to me.”

“I want to talk to you, but I know you won’t face me if I try.”

“Sorry if you got tired of understanding me.”

“But always remember, if you ever look for me, I’ll be right here outside your apartment building, waiting. I won’t leave until I see you.”
