Story Start:

That time when I was told I would get hurt,

I didn’t want to believe.

That time when I was told you’ll eventually leave,

I didn’t want to believe.

But what happens if that will be a reality?

Will I end up crying?

Will I end up doing nothing?

Or Will I look for you until the end of the earth?

I really don’t know.

You were my 1^st love and I couldn’t bear to lose you

I could no longer move.

I lost energy

I lost hope.

I just stay in one place and do nothing.

It’s because My 1^st Love left without saying goodbye.

That time when you gave me happiness.

I didn’t let it go

That time when you made feel special

I didn’t let it go.

Is this happiness I’m feeling?

Or is this just an illusion?

Sadly you left and I couldn’t do anything about it.

So Please tell me is this sadness?

Self-pity? Anger? Tell me cause I really don’t know

My friends tell me to let it go but how can I do that

When my 1^st love left without saying goodbye.

So tell me was it really love?

Or was it just you playing around?

Please tell me so I’ll accept the fact that

My 1^st Love left without saying goodbye

 

As I heard clapping, I stood up and bowed. You must be wondering what’s happening?

Yes. I’m still in Cherish. But I’m representing Cherish for a Korean singing contest here in Ayala. The concept for level one? Ballad. I made that myself. What did you think? Good? Thanks.

“Now…I request all the competitors to come up here” That was the MC. I gotta go.

“Why didn't you dance a boyfriend song?”

“I wanted to concentrate to the dance moves.”

The judge nodded.

 

I bowed and went down.

“Yunji! You were great!” Cherry and Mg told me.

Eunisse handed me water

“Thanks” I drank the water.

“That felt nice” I said.

“Performing?” Stacy asked.

“No. The water” I smiled.

“You’re crazy”

“Got it from one of my cousins” I said.

“Who?” Iris asked.

“Fishy” I answered.

“What!?” Iris yelled.

“Hush~” I placed my pointer finger on my lips signaling her to keep quiet.

“Ms. Lee” I turned around.

“Do you wish to go home?”

I shook my head.

“I wish to play” I answered.

He bowed.

“Yes mistress” She smiled.

“Yes?”

“When will HE come?” I asked.

“10 minutes from now”

“WHAT?!”
