˗ˏˋ hurt ‥

you have a crush on the most popular boy in your school, nishimura niki. you have liked him for almost 6 years now, but never got the courage to confess to him.

today, you were feeling confident. you purposely bought some heart shaped chocolates yesterday, if you're going to tell him how you feel this morning. you woke up earlier than normally, just to make sure you look neat and pretty enough.

you walk to school, gripping the box of chocolates tighter with each step you take, your heartbeat quickening. you finally arrive and can already feel your knees getting weak. you start looking for him in the hallways. you're about to turn a corner, when you suddenly hear his voice, talking to someone. you stop in your tracks, carefully eavesdropping.

"you see, eunji.."

you move your head a bit, so you can see what's going on. your expression drops and your heart sinks. niki is holding flowers and a teddy bear, standing in front of a girl. a confession. it feels like every reason to continue living is gone. you were always there for niki, never annoyed him, helped him through hard times.. you feel regret, heartbroken, not good enough.. and hurt.
