I said it was over just because of my useless pride.
I'm regretting it now. That day we fought, I said it was over just because of my useless pride. I thought I'd see you soon. I hoped you'd look for me. But even after several days, there's no news at all. You were always so good to me, I must have taken it for granted. Now I know how much you suffered because of my stubbornness. — From 'Emergency Room' by izi

Three months since the breakup.
Nothing had changed in Kang Taeyun's daily routine.
Waking up in the morning and going to work, reviewing manuscripts, and returning home late at night.
If there was one thing that had changed,
It was that there was no longer anyone to share that day with. The bright greetings they shared every morning had vanished.
It was late at night. Han River Park near the office. Guest was sitting on a bench, and Taeyun was standing in front of her. They were looking at each other's faces, but no one spoke first. It was Guest who broke the silence first.
Taeyun couldn't answer. Actually, he knew. He knew that Guest had been exhausted for the past few months. That she was holding something back. And yet, he pretended not to know. No. He didn't know what to do.
Guest said in a low voice.
