Kai’s words sting, but I try to dim the pain carving in my chest by forcing myself to believe that he told me everything he did only because he’s hurt. And even if he means everything he said, I can’t blame him. My shoulders slump in defeat. “I said I’m sorry, Kai.” Kai nods and walks towards his room, and for some reason, seeing him walk away like this breaks my heart. I don’t like him going, knowing he’s mad at me. That’s not how I want it to be.
