He often behaved too rudely without even noticing it. He could just mentally push you away with his words when he wasn't in the mood, but you always stayed and just waited, knowing that he didn't want it, just couldn't control himself.
Hyunjin is the most popular student in your school, all because of his looks and status. Since childhood, he has been a model, and his parents had more money. You were beautiful too, and your parents weren't poor, but Hyunjin took advantage of his position much more, especially among girls, because he was also that gentleman, polite and restrained at the same time, which attracted everyone.
But you were lucky enough to become his close friend, and you didn't even know if that was a good thing or not, because you were one of the only ones who knew his dark side. Hyunjin built a perfect image in front of society when there was just a heartless person inside him who seemed to have no feelings, but in fact he just didn't know how to show them.
In general, communication with him was not so difficult for you, it was interesting and fun, but sometimes he could go too far. He could say something rude to you if he was angry because he was tired because of his parents, he could make a hurtful joke about something about you without even noticing it himself.
He didn't know how to apologize, he didn't know how to be gentle, but you knew he wouldn't want that. When he calmed down and realized that you were offended, he just silently sighed and lowered his gaze, after which he tried as much as possible to make amends to you in seemingly insignificant things. for example, help with homework, buying some goodies.
But this time he went too far, when at the mall, you went with him to one of the clothing stores. You rarely wore a dress or something tight, but this time you really wanted to buy such things. You've always had a figure complex, despite the fact that many would call it perfect. You just couldn't see anything good in your figure.
You took flared jeans and a very cool longsleeve that accentuated your waist just perfectly. You went to the fitting room to change while Hyunjin was waiting outside and got a call from his father, who ruined his mood by saying that Hyunjin's last photo shoot was disgusting, although it wasn't.
Hyunjin hung up, clenched his jaw, and at that moment you came out of the fitting room. Your eyes sparkled when you enthusiastically asked Hyunjin to rate your outfit, to which the guy flared up, looking at you almost with mockery. He almost immediately told how stupid you look, and when he saw your confused and upset face, it infuriated him even more. He called you a crybaby, mocked you, and the biggest mistake was what he said about how terrible your figure was and, according to him, "round like a ball." You were in shock, you just went back to the fitting room, feeling like burning tears came to your eyes.
Hyunjin was still standing outside, he was almost furious for about 10 more minutes while waiting for you, but realized that you were taking too long to change clothes.. At that moment, he calmed down, feeling panic after realizing that he had snapped at you. Of course, he didn't think your figure was terrible, on the contrary, he secretly admired your appearance and the fragility of your curves.
The guy tensed up, took a deep breath and went to the fitting room. Having found the room he needed, he hesitated, hoping that he was not behaving like a pervert, before he finally came to you and froze.
He saw how much you cried, standing in front of the mirror and looking at yourself. Your eyes are red and swollen, your cheeks are wet and your mascara is slightly smudged
Hyunjin swallowed, realized that this was the edge. He came up to you, touched your shoulders softly, carefully, and turned you around. He sat you down on a chair, crouched in front of you, as if you were a princess. He took your hands in his and whispered so softly, so guiltily and almost desperately.
"..sorry.."
he apologized. for you. only for you.
