You and Hyunjin have been together for five years. Three years ago, things slowly began to go south. That’s when your parents really met him for the first time. Of course, they’d said hi before, but never really talked.

You invited Hyunjin to family dinner at a restaurant with your parents. Things were going pretty well while Hyunjin was there, but after he left early to get home first, your parents had a talk with you. Their words about Hyunjin not being good for you or the right one upset you, but they also dug deeper.

After that you slowly distanced yourself from Hyunjin. After about a year of being distant, you started fighting every now and then. The fights became more frequent.

You lost your job a year prior, and didn’t really have the energy to get a new one. Hyunjin got two jobs to pay for everything for you and him, and he started working late. The fights were becoming even more frequent.

One night when you came home from a night out with your friends, using one of Hyunjin’s cards, he was already home. When you came into the living room, he wasted no time.

“We should break up.”
