Seungmin:you’re not the only one having fun
Donghyun:ugh. I’m stuck in a meeting now. should we go to the strip club later?
Feeling sick to her stomach, Dahye swiped to the next screenshot.

It triggered a memory for Dahye. One month after they had started seeing each other, Hyukjoon had taken her out to eat. On their way back from the restaurant, Dahye had spotted a woman slumped on the side of the street, drunk and alone. At first, Dahye tried to shake her awake, but the woman had let outa soft moan without opening her eyes, and so Hyukjoon had rooted around in her purse for her wallet. The woman’s driver’s license listed an address in Yeonnam-dong.
“I’ll drop you off first, and then I’ll take her home,” Hyukjoon had said. Dahye had not had an inkling of suspicion. If anything, she remembered feeling touched by his kindness.
Without warning, she retched, dry heaving onto the floor. Spit trailed from her lips. It was her fault. If she hadn’t said anything, if they had only passed the woman without noticing … Dahye scrambled toward the bathroom, not even caring that she was making too much noise. She shut the door. Crouching over the toilet, she retched again.
She had to stop reading. She had to stop—

Sangwoo:Isn’t that the same girl you’ve been seeing?
Hyukjoon:yep
Seungmin:it’s been a few months, hasn’t it? Are you getting soft?
Hyukjoon:fuck off
Sangwoo:Someone’s turning into a little bitch.
Donghyun:send a video if you’re not a pussy
Hyukjoon:[VIDEO THUMBNAIL]
Hyukjoon:good body but tits are small. face is so-so. she looks like the temu version of amanda seyfried
Hyukjoon:if she’s still around in a few months, should I give her money for a boob job?
Seungmin:lucky girl lol
The picture and the thumbnail for the video, like the others, were blurred. But she knew without a shred of doubt that they were of her. She continued scrolling and found messages time-stamped with the date they had first slept together.
