Chapter 1 - Before the Silence

Oh my gosh… she screamed with joy.

Why is he soooo handsome?

Oh my god… oh my god!

She was watching her favorite idol's live concert on a big LED screen.

It had been five years since she completely loved him.

She never missed any of his concerts, not even a single clip.

Her whole room was covered with his pictures, taken from many of his concerts and programs.

On the headboard wall, the name "Haerim" was written in small golden lights, creating a romantic vibe in the night darkness.

It was 1 a.m she is still busy watching his favorite concert even though she has her first exam tomorrow.

But care about it.....

She is the only child of her parents. Her parents are very conscious about her.

When she was born her mother died her father never married because of her. Minah is a second year student.

She is a very charming and beautiful girl in the whole college....

Her father is very concerned about her idol's love. He never wants to hurt because they both have different religions and cultures.

But he always fulfills her demands without any little questions...

Minah appreance:

She has big hair, a little cute nose, big and deep grey eyes that is the symbol of a deep love like a ocean.

The next day, she walked into the college corridor, still half-lost in last night's memories.

"Minah!"

A voice called from behind. Breathless. Urgent.

She turned around.

It was Arooj. Her best friend. Her childhood partner in every secret and every silly fight. But today… her face didn't look normal. She looked tired. Hurt.

"Arooj? What happened? Why are you panting like that? Is everything okay?"

Arooj just kept looking at her. Not angry. Not shouting. Just… disappointed.

"Minah," she said slowly, "you really don't know?"

Minah frowned slightly. "Know what?"

"How can you forget?"

Those words hung in the air.

Minah's mind went blank. She tried to remember. Exam? Assignment? Something important?

And then suddenly

Her heart dropped.

"Oh my God…" she whispered. "No… no… this can't be…"

She placed her hand on her forehead, feeling heat rush to her cheeks.

It was Arooj's birthday.

She had forgotten.

The same friend who used to stay awake till midnight just to be the first one to wish her.

Shame wrapped around her like a heavy blanket.

She stepped forward without saying anything and pulled Arooj into a tight hug.

"I'm so sorry…" she whispered near her ear. "Happy Birthday, my dear Aroooj…"

Arooj stayed silent for a moment.

"I waited the whole night," she said softly. "Just for one message from you."

And that hurt more than any anger could have.

"Ohhhh… sorry… please…" Minah said dramatically.

Now Arooj was emotionally blackmailing her. After all, she was her one and only best friend.

"Hmm… let me think…" Arooj said with a wide smile, pretending to be serious.

"Okay… if you really want my forgiveness… you must give me a treat."

"Ahhhh…" Minah took a deep breath of relief, as if she had just won a world war.

"Okay, as you wish, my life…" she said, lightly pinching Arooj's cheeks.

They both burst into laughter.

But they didn't know…

This laughter would soon bring an unexpected pain into their lives....

What was waiting for them ahead?
