What is your greatest regret?

Was it that you had trusted someone you shouldn't have? Or was it that you couldn't keep a promise? Or had it been that you were the blindest?

If you could change one thing in your life, what would it be?

If there was one thing she could change about her life, Hyein would choose to never meet him.

Maybe it was all her fault. Perhaps she was the reason he was in this state. Maybe, if she had never might him, things could have been different...

Perhaps he wouldn't be there standing there, right in front of her, holding a vial of poison in his hand, his sad eyes penetrating her soul.

And as Hyein stared back at the man, she knew he wasn't just an annoying jerk to her. He was something more.

Something she wasn't sure of.

He raised the vial to his mouth and she wanted to scream. To yell. To cry. But she couldn't. Why? Why would he...

The pink lips of his quivered in a tearful grin as Hyein gazed back, pleading him with her eyes.

Run.

Please...

But he didn't. Her heart wrenched. She had promised. She had promised that she would protect him but she couldn't.

She had failed.
