75 The Mind Of Chae Jaemin (1/2)

”This is a bit overboard don't you think?”

The wall facing the outside was fully made out of gla.s.s, showing everything happening within the room. Anyone pa.s.sing by could see what was happening.

Yoona shrugged, not caring about his thoughts. Her safety was priority.

Never had she thought that her knowledge in study rooms would come in handy. Of course, there was a chance Jaemin wasn't a murderer but she wasn't going to lower her guard because of it.

While Jaemin sat down, Yoona continued to stay standing up. She only booked the room for thirty minutes so they weren't going to talk long to begin with. Plus, it wasn't like she wanted to talk to him. She was just doing it to see if she could get information out of him.

”Are you not sitting down?”

She looked over at the clock before focusing her attention back on him. While leaning her back against the wall, she crossed her arms. ”It's fine, I can stay standing up.”

Before when he was talking to Yoona, he was so shocked by the new side of her that he didn't allow himself to think properly. The emotions in him did not subside during their conversation. The fact that Yoona had changed so drastically in a week was so shocking.

Luckily, during the time they walked to the building, he brought himself to peace. Slowly, but surely.

Now was not the time to go into mental turmoil. He needed to think.

Jaemin's eyebrows furrowed, his soft lips slightly pouting. ”I think there is a bit of a misunderstanding. I'm not going to hurt you physically or mentally right now.”

At first, he thought it was a fluke since he was still clutching onto the old Yoona that existed. However, after going into the room, a.n.a.lyzing her gaze, and noting the actions taken, he noticed that something was different. And not just because of Minhyun.

There was something else driving the wedge between them; another variable like every f.u.c.king single time he tried to succeed with a plan.

Jaemin's eyes narrowed. He had a general idea of what it could be. All he needed was confirmation. This was why his last statement was thrown. It was bait. Emotional bait.

Yoona didn't hesitate to reply. ”So you're going to hurt me later?”

Her eyes flashed with suspicion and for a swift moment, a slight bit of emotion came to light. It was subtle, clearly she was trying to hide it from him, but he noticed. The years they spent together wasn't for nothing. He had some cards up his sleeve as well.

Just like Jaemin expected, the other emotion mixed within her heart was fear.

He knew it. There was no way that Minhyun could be the only variable that made Yoona's reaction to him this way. After years of being with Yoona, he knew her personality to a great extent. She was the type to forgive. She saw the humanity in people. The reason to why he went along with bringing the betrayal to public was because he knew for a fact that she would still try to see the light in him. From the beginning to the end, Yoona had always had faith in them. She would think that they would've had to have a reason, no matter how minuscule it is. That was her greatest weakness and his best weapon.
