Ultimatum

A Million Pieces

"Wake up sleepy head.." Bright sunlight fills the room as she draws the curtains 

"5 more minutes please.." 

"There's no time for that, we have to get you looking like royalty for your date today. So, come on! We have work to do." She pulls me by my feet onto the floor 

"Ow..." My bandages on my chest came off and started bleeding again 

"How many injuries must you endure?" She pokes me and patches me up once more 

"I'm sorry, hehe.." Blushing like an idiot, I go to the bathroom and put on the suit she made me 

"How does it fit?" She asks as I button the cufflinks 

"It's perfect, this is my new favorite outfit." I smile brightly 

"Now we just have to style your hair, and then the car will take you to pick up Sungmin and off to the restaurant you go." Sitting me down in a chair she blow dry styles my hair 

"But wait, what about breakfast today? I promised I'd take you out." 

"We can go tomorrow, right now I just want you to focus on the day ahead of you." 

"Well, alright...if you say so." 

"Don't be upset, be happy! Today is going to be a great day! He'll be so happy when you surprise him. Especially with these.." A bouquet of rainbow roses pops out from behind her

"These are...."

"From my garden, I'm sure he'll love them. Now go on, and have a good time." She pushes me out the door and her made take me downstairs to the car 

"Good luck!" She shouts from her window, waving with a smile 

"Thank you!" I wave back and get in the car 

Inside was champagne, and lots of pink bunnies which were Sunmins favorite. How did she know that? I guess it's her intuition  hmhm 

Once we reach my house, I pick up the flowers and ring the doorbell 

"Kyuhyun, what're you doing?" He asks with a displeased expression 

"I'm taking you out for a day of fun, I'm sorry for all the things that have happened between us. Here, these are for you.." Handing him the flowers I bite my tongue in anxiety 

"These are beautiful...thank you." He puts them in the vase on the table and puts on his pink coat 

"Let's go, we are going to lunch and then off to buy you a special present." 

Taking his hand we jump in the car and head to the restaurant 

"This place is very nice, how did you find it?" He asks sitting across from me at the table 

"It was actually Shelby who did this for us." I confessed 

"What? So...you went over there last night?" 

"I was upset and I needed someone to talk to, please understand she's trying to help us." 

"Alright Kyuhyun, I can't take this anymore. I'm giving you a choice, you either stay with me and forget she exists or I walk out that door right now." 

"Sungmin, please this doesn't have to be like this.." 

"It seems your choice is clear, have a nice life with her.." Getting up to leave his eyes were full of tears 

"No!" I pull him into my arms even though he initially resists 

"Just let me go, I'm clearly not enough for you anymore." 

"That's not it at all....to tell the truth.." I let him go, "I don't know what I want, I don't know what to do, and most of all I don't know what to feel." 

"How can it be this difficult? I thought you liked men, at least I thought you did until she came into the picture." 

"There's a lot I have to think about right now. Will you give me a chance to think things over for a while?" I plead 

"I'll give you a month, and if you haven't made up your mind by then....I'm going to send divorce papers and move out." He states putting his hands on my shoulders and a kiss on the cheek 

Everything is such a mess, I've screwed up everything I knew because my heart can't make up its own feelings 

She was so sure that everything would go well today but it turned out to be the opposite entirely 

I feared she would be so disappointed in me that I failed to make anything better

Why does it matter? She told me I was a friend to her, she probably treats me the way she does because that's how she treats everyone...I mean she encouraged me to go on this date and made all the arrangements 

Should I tell her I like her? Or will she just tell me I'm her good friend? 

What should I do? I wish I could just know the answer already...
