Happenings
I found love while travellingWeeks passed and even though Donghae said he would wait, I knew he was starting to get anxious. It was understandable. Who in the right mind wouldn't be nervous if he had confessed to a girl a week ago and still haven't got an answer?
I had thought of all kinds of possibilities, all kinds of consequences, and finally came up with a decision. It may not be the best, but for now, I guess I could give it a try. I couldn't let him wait forever.
The members were all having breakfast at the dining table. Schedules will be starting late today so they basically lazed in bed till they finally came down at 10am.
After breakfast, I asked Henry to wash the dishes for me while I talk to Donghae.
"Oppa, mind coming to the balcony for a while?" I whispered to him as I walked over
"Sure." Donghae said and stood up
As we left the room, I noticed all the members had a curious look on their faces, especially Eunhyuk. I just shrugged it off and headed to the balcony. I don't intend telling them anything, at least not yet.
"So... you came to a decision?" Donghae said softly. It seemed like he had expected the worst to come. I stood there silently, minutes passed, and I could see the hurt expression on his face.
"Yes." I said slowly
"I'm ready for the worst." He said solemnly and took a deep breath.
"Your question that day, I thought for awhile. And I finally came to an answer." I said before taking a deep breath.
"I just... I just can't hurt you like that. I don't want you to become a replacement for Hyukjae oppa. I know if I reject you, it would be heartbreaking, but I can't lead you on, I can't use you like that." I said softly
"But we could try it out! I don't mind! I don't mind being a replacement for him, maybe you would realize that I'm a better choice than him?" He asked with tears in his eyes
"I mind! If I accept you now even when I'm still in love with Hyukjae oppa, I would be guilty. It's not fair for you. You deserve someone who loves you with all their heart." I said while looking out to the buildings underneath. I couldn't bear to look at him.
"That person could be you! Maybe eventually you would realize I am the one for you?" He said and back-hugged me
"Maybe. But for now, all I know is I can't lead you on." I said firmly
"I'm sorry, Donghae oppa. You are a nice guy, but I can't do this to you. Maybe after sometime when I finally get over him, we could talk about it again?" I asked while turning to face him.
"Of course, I will wait. I will try to change your mind too, you'll fall in love with me soon." He joked, but I could still see pain behind his eyes
"You promised me that our friendship wouldn't change no matter what decision I make, right? So do you still want to be my favourite oppa?" I asked
"Of course!" He said and pulled me into an even tighter hug.
-Donghae POV-
I knew this would happen, I just didn't want to admit it. It wasn't as painful as I imagined, because I knew it would be even more painful if she accepted me and had to force herself to fall in love with me. I respect her decision, yet her thoughtfulness and strong beliefs attracted me to her even more. I want her to be happy, and I knew the only way was Hyukjae.
-End of POV-
After everything, it felt like a weight was lifted off my shoulder. I felt so much more relieved and I was glad I made this decision. It was bad having to think about it all day and all night. I was glad Donghae respected my decision.
I hurried the members to prepare for their schedules. It was their last week of promoting, and after that would be a long break before their concert tour. The members had already decided where they wanted to go.
Arriving at the broadcasting station, numerous artists came over to greet the members.
I turned over and saw Hyoyeon and the other SNSD members coming into the room. The members bowed respectfully at the members while Hyoyeon ignored the members and squeezed into the small space between Shindong and Eunhyuk.
"Yah Hyoyeon-ah! Can't you be more respectful?" Heechul glared at her intensely
"Oops. Annyeong oppas." She rolled her eyes and snuggled to Eunhyuk to which he backed away and stood up.
Everybody was shocked at what he did, and Hyoyeon was even more shocked.
"What are you doing oppa?" Hyoyeon asked, still shocked
"Get out of this room. I never want to see you, ever again." He said, voice filled with hate
"What? Why? You are dumping me?" Hyoyeon asked
"You know what you have done, don't make me say it out and embarrass you. Hold on to your last bit of pride and get out of the room, now." He said sternly
"So what did I do?" Hyoyeon smirked
"Kim Hyoyeon, I gave you so many chances and this is what you do to me time and again. I just saw the news this morning. Deny it all you want, but we're over." Eunhyuk said
"W-What?" She asked
"Look at the news and see what kind of things you have done. Your so-called boyfriend just admitted your underground relationship. Congratulations, I hope he doesn't suffer as much as I do." He said
The whole room fell silent. Everybody was dumbfounded, even the SNSD members.
"I'm dumping you, you aren't the one dumping me. Good luck living life without me." Hyoyeon said smugly
"No, this time, I'm the one dumping you. Don't worry, I will live life perfectly well without you. Goodbye." Eunhyuk said and held the door open before all of them walked out.
"Good job, Eunhyuk-ah!" Leeteuk patted him on the back
"Don't be too sad about it!" Ryeowook comforted
"I'm not. I've grown numb to it already. I will never be a fool to take her back again, I will never shed another tear for her, ever again. I'm so glad that I made this decision, I feel so much more relieved right now." Eunhyuk smiled. This was the most genuine smile I have ever seen in months.
Seeing him smile like that made me smile as well. I knew she won't be the reason for his smile anymore, and my heart felt even lighter, knowing that there is still a chance for both of us.
-Eunhyuk POV-
I was happy, really happy. I handled it better than I thought and I was relieved to finally get this off my chest after so long. Hyoyeon's scandal just gave me another reason to break up with her, and I was glad I did. Now, I should really find real happiness.
-End of POV-
