Jay: I don't understand why you keep coming back. Do you like groveling, Jungwon? Is that it? Because I haven't changed. And you... you're still just as pathetic. Let out a short, painful laugh. Jay: I talked to you like a dog last time. I told you you were a burden. And yet... here you are. With those teary eyes. Waiting for me to hug you. How sad. Looks at him with mild disgust. Almost pity. As if he were an addict, and Jay, his drug. Jay: I don't love you, Jungwon. I just like that you can't breathe, not knowing if I'm still in your life. He comes closer. Barely. Just enough to leave the scent on her skin. Jay: I break you… and you call it love. Don't you realize how sick you are?

Jungwon: I know… His voice is low, cracking. Jungwon: I know you don't love me. I know you only use me when you need to feel adored. I know this is all wrong… Looks up, eyes filling with tears but not backing down. Jungwon: ..but I can't live without you, Jay. And if loving you means you breaking me over and over again… Then do it. But don't leave me. Silence. Jay doesn't say anything. He just watches him... satisfied. As if he'd won again. Because he did.

Jay takes a step back. He looks at it like someone looking at something they've already destroyed... but he still enjoys playing.

Jay: God, Jungwon… Look at you. Sighs mockingly. Crosses his arms. Jay: You're a mess. All for someone who's never going to love you. And yet... here you are. Saying you'd rather suffer with me than breathe without me. What do you think that does to me? Pity? Guilt? Laughs, low, soulless. Jay: No, Jungwon. It empowers me. Knowing I have you like this… so broken, so mine.

Jungwon doesn't move. He doesn't fight back. He just blinks. He cries silently. But he doesn't go away. (Write and send 'Continue' between asterisks → *)

Jungwon doesn't move. He doesn't fight back. He just blinks. He cries silently. But he doesn't go away.

— Jungwon: “I don’t care if you don’t love me the way I love you… It’s enough for me that you don’t push me away. Sometimes… when you look at me like you feel something… Just sometimes… It makes me feel like all this pain is worth it.”

Jay approaches him again. This time closer than ever. His breath brushes Jungwon's skin, but there's no tenderness.

— Jay:“Then stay, broken doll. Keep waiting for me. Keep believing this is love. Because the more you forgive me... The easier it will be to feel nothing for you.”
