Let's continue with where we left off...

'Cause I missed you,' Sota smiled.

'Aww, I missed me too'

There was a pause that followed. And then Melody spoke again,
'I just ruined the moment, didn't I?'

'Yeah, you kinda did,' he laughed.

And they hop off the subway and went their separate ways.

She was already up the stairs to her sister apartment when he realized she left her phone with him. He started making his way to her apartment, knowing she can't live without her phone.

As she opened the door quietly, and went in, she leaned against the door and her mind started racing.

She recalled them talking on the subway.
She recalled her eye lids feeling heavy.
She recalled resting her head on something, which turn out to be his shoulder.
And then the next thing she knew, she felt the warmth of his lips on her forehead.

As she thought about that, her face heated up in a bright shade of red. And her sister, just had to come out of her room at that time and saw her staring at nothingness.

'Oh my gosh, Dy? Are you okay? You look sick!'

'Uh, I'm fine, Brogan'

Her sis looked worried.... til it all hit her.
'Oh, you are sick. You're love sick!!'

'What no!'

'Yes! Now tell me all about it, after all you are very dumb when it comes to guys'

'Says the girl who's 25 and still hasn't had a boyfriend.' Melody scoffed.

'Oh, come on, just out with it.'

And so, reluctantly, Melody told her sister, Brogan, everything.

'Wow, it seems that he really likes you'

Sota was right outside her door, preparing to knock when he over heard their conversation.

'He likes me? Are you sure?'
That's Dy's voice! Are they talking about me? He thought.

'Yep, so sure'

'Oh, no!'

'Why do you sound so annoyed at that'

'Cause the only thing worst than a guy who hates you, is a guy who loves you'

The only thing worst than a guy who hates you, is a guy who loves you.

Those words echoed in his head as he turned and headed home forgetting all about the phone he was supposed to return to her. Somehow, he was hurt so much more by those words than from everytime he fell on his Triple Axel.
...

The next day at practice, he finally returned her phone to her. When she said thank you, he just nodded curtly and walked away quickly.

'What's up with him?' She muttered to herself.

During practice, everytime she tried to talk to him, he would cut her off or try to avoid her.

When finally she couldn't take it anymore, she yelled in his ear, 'HEY!' but he just turned away dismissively.

What's wrong with him? Just what did I do? Why is he acting so out-of-character?

And to make matters worst, Javi was gone with Brian for European Championship to claim his fourth title, and Yuzuru and Nam were being completely ignorant of her and absorbed in whatever Sota was telling them about, and Coach Tracy didn't seem to care.

So much for them being my Cricket Bros... They sure ain't acting like it...

Once practice was over, she grabbed her bag and slung it on her shoulder and walked out the Cricket Club in supreme speed.

Before going back to the apartment, she took a walk around Lake Ontario, watching the skyline split in two, and letting her thoughts consume her.

What did I do?Why is he angry at me? Why won't he tell me why he's angry? He seems so distant...It feels like he hates me...Why do I feel so sad?

Cause you like him.

No, cause I just lost a friend.

Just what did I do?

Every time I see him laugh with Nam and Yuzu, it's like watching a memory that I could never be a part of...

What happened to my Hummingbird? What happened to the boy who saved me?
What happened to 'you're my flower' ?

And at that point, she couldn't hold back her tears anymore, and they fell from her eyes, streaming down her face.

What happened to 'I'll protect you'?

As if God was telling them to make up already, Sota was walking in the opposite direction by the lake, with Nam.

And just by chance, they both saw her crying. When she looked up and saw him here, she took off running away, in the snow, in the cold, still crying.

Nam saw the sadness in her eyes and wanted to pounce on Sota to yell at him to ask what he did, and why the sight of him made his 'little sis' run away. But when he saw the same sadness replicated in Sota's eyes, he decided to do this in a more civilized manner.

'What happened between you two? By the looks of it, it would appear you have not asked her out, right?'

'Yeah, and I don't think I ever will,' he sighed and looked down.

'What? Why?'

He inhaled, and then recalled all of last night's events and what he overheard her say to her sister.
'So from what she said to her sister, she would rather that I hate her than if I like her, which I do.'

'I'm sure she doesn't mean it that way, she's just confused'

'I don't know anymore...Can you leave me alone for a while'

'Yeah sure. I'm sure you and Dy each need some space'
And Nam left, sighing and thinking,
I was almost sure this would happen...Dy, why do you have to be so blunt?

As Nam had left, Sota just stood there watching the girl he loved running farther away from him. He thought about chasing after her, but decided against it.

How could a broken hearted person heal the heart of another broken person?

It just doesn't work that way.

Broken hearts don't heal each other.
They break each other.

For broken people, break people.
