Dana

Sitting on my bed, I fiddle with my phone as I patiently wait for Cole's reply. He told me that he's on his way now to meet me and I am more than excited. I've been dying to meet him. I mean, it's been like, four days since we last saw each other and I swear I miss him so much.

I lay on my bed, staring at the empty ceiling. The kiss Soobin and I had is still bothering me. I mean, I don't really get it. Why did he kiss me? Oh please, why did I respond?

I closed my eyes, trying not to recall those memories. I shouldn't be thinking about it, I should be thinking about Cole because we'll finally see each other again.

My phone starts to vibrate and I hurriedly opened it. Hoping it's Cole who sent me a message but no. It's an instagram account of a girl who messaged me. Feeling disappointed, I opened the message and read it out of curiosity.

"Hey, you're Cole's girlfriend right? I just saw him in Epcot kissing some girl. I don't know if you'll believe this but here's a picture."

My eyes landed on the picture she sent me and I don't know if I'd believe this. I shook my head as I stare at the picture. This isn't real.

This picture is edited, I know it isn't real. Cole wouldn't kiss someone knowing that he has me. He just told me he's on his way now. Oh c'mon, I knew it was wrong to kiss Soobin back but why?

"Dana?" I hear Hansol called as he peaked from outside my door.

I look at him, tears forming in my eyes. "Y-yeah?" I say, my voice cracking.

Hansol rushes inside, his hand gently caressing my cheek.

"Hey, hey. Why are you crying?" He ask, worry visible in his eyes.

"I—" My words were cut off when I felt my tears coming out from my eyes.

I can't take this. What do I do? What if the media learns about this? Everyone will start to hate on Cole. I know he loves me, he wouldn't do such thing.

"Stop crying okay? Let's just go down and eat. You have a lot of explaining to do, alright?" Hansol says, wiping my tears. I nod at him.

We stand up from my bed. Hansol fixing the bed sheet before going down. We made our way to the dining room. Soobin was already there, sitting while patiently waiting for us. I sit across him while Hansol sits beside him.

I eat quietly, not minding Soobin and Hansol's presence. I don't know what to do anymore; why did he—doesn't he love me? Am I not enough?

I've got a lot of questions but only Cole can answer it. But where is he now?

After we finished eating, I excused myself to the bathroom while Hansol volunteered to wash the dishes. I washed my face as I look at my reflection in the mirror.

"Am I not enough?" I ask myself, hoping to get an answer but no.

"Dana! Where are you?" My thoughts were interrupted by Soobin calling me.

I mentally rolled my eyes. Since when did he and I became close? I continue washing my face, drying it after. I went out of the bathroom and made my way to where Soobin is.

"What?" I ask, looking at him. Hansol is sitting beside him, looking dead serious while he looks like he's completely done with Hansol.

"He wants to talk to you," He says in a bored tone before locking his eyes on the television.

"What is it?" I ask, completely unaware of Soobin's presence.

"Mind to tell me why were you crying?" Hansol raises his eye brows at me. I can sense Soobin eavesdropping at our conversion but I don't care.

"I—" And before I could even finish my sentence, the news suddenly caught our attention.

"Did Cole and Dana broke up? Or is Cole Cheating? The famous couple, Cole Sprouse and Dana Jung is said to have broken up. Many pictures of Cole spreads online and it shows that he was kissing a girl which is rumoured to be his current girlfriend.

Many are asking when did they broke up and it seemed suspicious as both of them were seen together shopping last week. Both their agencies haven't released a statement yet."

Well, shit.

Hansol looks at me wide-eyed and I can sense Soobin looking intently at me too.

"You and Cole . . . broke up?" Hansol asked, still not believing of what he had just discovered. I did not give him an answer because I too, doesn't know if we broke up. He just called me a while ago saying he's already on his way to meet me.

"Dana," Hansol says when he realized I didn't answer his question. "Tell me what happened," I sighed. I know I can't keep this specially to my bestfriend. He knows me too damn well.

I looked at him before starting to explain everything.
