It's time for goodbye
The Randoms
Two men were being dragged to a separated booked-room, those two didn't have a good mood displayed on their faces. It's tiring for both of them. They were fed up with the condition and the questions. This whole week the non-stop calls kept bugging them and of course, they had no option but to pick them up. They're from their family; mom and dad, siblings, relatives, asking them just what had gone wrong that had made them ended up with such decision.
"Now spill it!"
Jaejoong sighed, now he had to do this all over again in front of his best friend.
"Don't you remember how hard it was for you guys to be together, I'm your witness for the whole process! What is wrong with you both?!"
Jae turned his eyes to the bottle on the table and started to pour some to his glass, maybe being drunk would make this easier.
"Where should I start it? Well, it seems that there's no such thing as eternal love.."
He srank it up and felt the greatness of that burning feeling on his throat. Before he started to pour some more, the glass was snatched and he was left holding the bottle in his hand and gulped it from the bottle itself.
"It's gone.. the sparks are gone. It's turned sour and plain. We just argue with each other each day. It feels so hard and stuffy. I can't even stay with him together in the same room any longer..
Jae stared at the half empty bottle in front of him. His mind started to play back the memories he had for almost as long as he lived.
--
"We're so naive back then, but I know that at that time I really wanna have him as mine, to keep him by my side. But there're so many things went against us. Our friends at school, our family, we just had to rely on that feeling inside, our love. We went out leaving our home and family, started to live by ourselves but at that time our mind was one and we somehow made it through."
Yunho leant to the wall, closing his eyes.
"Just bread for stuffing our empty stomaches, moving from place to place.. We love dancing, and we performed from stage to stage, but we were happy back then. We laughed together, even with poor meal and nearly proper bed to sleep on, we got through it together, just us, and we were still be thankful and full."
Yunho was smiling, buth his other features were not showing any happiness.
"I think that yeah.. maybe we just lose the sparks. It's over between us." he ended.
They were finally settled, both in the field they enjoyed the most. Yunho with his big, renowned dancing academy, and Jae with his new dream in acting field. There're no money issues. They had managed to prove themselves to their families. They had passed the rocky roads full of bruises and blood and stood tall for the past ten years.
"I lost it, I even hit him.. I can't believe myself for ever done that." he fisted his hand.
--
"When his hand hit me, I just felt like being thrown to a different world. We'd argued a lot, trust me, but that was the truth. I was left there blank, thinking just what had gone completely wrong between us. It hurts a lot when the one who did it is the one you least expected."
Jae grimaced as if he could feel it again at that moment.
"I was so mad after the hit and I threw any object near me, it was our photo frame, the picture was taken from our first formal honeymoon and it hit him precisely and at the second after I saw his blood. It hit me hard, it shocked me that it was me, the one who did it."
Jae gulped another amount of the bitter liquid.
"I honestly forget what's the real reason for our fight that day.. It's so silly and I started to think that maybe we're not compatible for each other anymore.."
"Just from a sigle fight?"
"It's just the tip of the iceberg. We had many things happend, I've told you before.."Jae closed his eyes, wondering back to that moment.
"I saw him, it felt like he's someone else. We just stared at each other in total silence, then we left. I find it peaceful and I slowly get myself together again. I had a filming that time and we were separated for like three months without any single text or call."
--
"It was the longest time we were totally parted with each other without any efforts to at least find out what the other's doing. I was also faced with the anual national dancing competition for the academy. We just lost ourselves in whatever we're doing and I can still remember clearly that night, when we finally met each other after the long months.. We're awkward with each other. Things felt so empty and we're just like a stranger with each other."
"But you can't just give up like that! Don't you forget how much you've struggled together?"
Yunho turned to his best friend, "We tried, but everything didn't get any better. We just argued with each other even worse. And I just thought that we lost our attachment. We tried to again give our time alone to think, and it felt better to stay apart from each other."
He smiled bitterly, looking at the bottle without any willing to drink it. He had enough drinking to make himself drunk. He had been thinking for long and then he remembered when he voiced out the idea of ending their relationship, the love that they had so far, being agreed without any further struggle. That was the end.
"But is it worth enough? To let go everything you've been fighting for? Is it worth it? Are you sure?"
