Rim Young quickly turned to face him, a shaken expression immediately flashing across his face as he instinctively stepped backwards. The sight of his reaction seemed to bring Wi Hajoon back to his senses. His hand shot out, grabbing Rim Young by the arm before he could retreat any farther, as if he could somehow stop him from putting distance between them.
"Rim Young... I—"
He instantly jerked his arm back, pulling himself free from Wi Hajoon's grasp as he stepped away from him.
"Enough... Let's part ways here."
Before Wi Hajoon could get another word out of his mouth, Rim Young interrupted him. He quickly turned around and briskly walked away without looking back at him, his steps growing faster as though he were afraid that if he stopped even for a moment, he would lose the resolve he had barely managed to gather.
Why... why did you have to...
"Rim Young, wait."
