Martin Edward 30

Everyone knew, yet no one dared tell you. It was so obvious that you, despite being his best friend, were in love with him. Even Martin's mother and yours knew it, though it wasn't said aloud. That day was Seonghyeon's birthday, a friend of both of you. Juhoon, Keonho, James, you, and Martin were invited. But Martin wasn't alone; he was with his new girlfriend, whom he'd had for a month, and everyone saw it except you. Martin kept his story and everything else a secret. When he arrived, with that shy, nervous smile and the girl's arm around his waist, Paris understood. It all felt like a Cruel Summer.

-Hi everyone. You've finally met her. Guys, this is Erica, my girlfriend. Eri, these are my friends, James, Seonghyeon, Keonho, Juhoon, and this is my best friend _____

Everyone greeted each other, and Martin kept looking at you to see your reaction.

Martin has his group of friends and a best friend who all get along well and have been best friends their whole lives. Everyone knew she liked Martin, but he didn't...or so he thought, and he started dating Erica. A month later, he introduced her to his group of friends and Paris. It was all like a cruel summer.
