We Don't Talk Anymore

Description

When people fall out of love, when they fall out of the relationship they were in, they usually stopped talking. But I did not expected that it'd be this hard to just let go of what has been and just move on and forget, could we just really stop talking to each other as if we never even happened? 

Foreword

People who usually initiates the breakup feels much better after letting of such a huge burden off of their shoulders, they would just cut everything off and continue to live as if nothing happened at all. But what happens to the other person? They will be left in confusion, in a swirl of unanswered questions that they'll never hear the answers from no matter how they try, they will continue living their lives believing that they are not enough. 

Tiffany heaved a sigh as she gulped the glass of water in her hands in one go as if it was soju that would sting and maybe make her forget a little about everything. “Why do I still suffer this much?” She quickly fixed herself, her hair, and the rebel tear that rolled it's way out of her eyes, because her bestfriend Kim Taeyeon made a wonderful entrance she just can't ignore. The latter knee slide while playing an air guitar introducing to everyone in the dorm that she has arrived. “Yes, we pretty much know you've arrived now, midget.” Tiffany kid, letting out a smirk rule her face. 

“You know you're not that taller than I am, Hwang.” Taeyeon declaimed puffing her cheeks, but ended up laughing with what she said. She is used to being called a midget by Tiffany anyway, her bestfriend, it's only Tiffany after all that gets to call her that and her heart will still beat happily. 

“So you lovebirds done talking? What's for dinner?” cue Sooyoung and her way of ruining the precious moment Taeyeon was building up in her own little head, she then face the latter with her face flustered and stuttered her way to denying what Sooyoung was pointing up to. 

“Lovers–what pft. What are you talking about now, Sooyoung. You know our friend here, haven't got over her ex-boyfriend Nichkhun, yet.” after realizing the weight of her words she then turned to Tiffany who is now slowly making her way to blocking the world away for a couple of hours away. Who would have thought that she'll come face to face with the word ex-boyfriend and Nichkhun in one sentence after some time again? Did it hurt her, that the one who used to make her smile is now the source of her tears? The word hurt is an understatement, the thing she's feeling now is devastation. 

She feels so devastated, she quickly the shower drowning her every thoughts with the water that floods her face. After a quick fixing up, she then got out of the bath then into her dress, then out of the dorm. To do something she'd been doing ever since she and Nichkhun broke up, and that is to visit a park they used to go to. Their manager and Taeyeon are the only people knows that, although it breaks Taeyeon's heart to see Tiffany like that she can't bring herself to toughen up and wake Tiffany from her delusion of their possibility of getting back together–since it's been months since they broke it off. 

But Tiffany couldn't care less, that is the only way to soothe her still wounded heart. And tonight seems different than the other nights she was visiting the park, it feels like something good will happen. Her footsteps became heavier to drag on as she came closer to the park, for a silhouette stand still looking at everything his eyes could ever look at. But she gulped the nervousness that sat upon and moved closed to get a confirmation of her assumption, the wide back and lean figure of the silhouette became clearer. And it is none other than Nichkhun, Tiffany didn't know what to feel. Would she be happy, would she be sad, would she cry in front of the lad, or would she just hug him? But regardless of her thoughts, she stood stoned on her feet, as if she saw something that terrified her she couldn't even move. Nichkhun felt the same way, but instead of being frozen like the latter, he ingulped her in a warm embrace. 

Only then she decided to let her tears flow down her cheeks, she was crying and no words were spoken. His hands slowly and gently patting the woman's back until she recovered, and when she did an icy cold spread among the two of them. “You know Tiff, it's been hard on me too.” Nichkhun spoke, his eyes fixated on the ground. Tiffany looked at him with eagerness that maybe, just maybe all of her questions that was left unanswered will finally cure her curiosity. “It was hard to wake up and realize that everything that used to make me smile is now all gone, I know that it felt like I drifted apart from you. But all I ever wanted was to hold you, was to make you smile, was to be there when you're down, you know.” he earned a sigh from the girl beside him.

“I know that none of us ever wanted to end up this way.” her words came out comforting the lad, she thought that when this moment do come, she thought that she'd say horrible things in his face because she was hurt. But love is still there, and it took over her. She wanted nothing but his happiness, even though that she may not be in it. “I'm sorry for a lot of things, I never wanted to hurt you, but still I did. And I know how hard it is to just stop talking, to stop initiating, to stop caring, but sometimes you have to. The moment I stopped talking to you, is the moment I regret the most. Will you forgive me, Tiff?” his words sounded so sincere in her ears. She embraced him and buried her face on the crook of his neck, inhaling every scent of him. “I already have, Khunnie. I already have.” she then looked up to see his face, and was shocked to see every emotion that sits on the latter's eyes. 

“I love you, I always had, and I always will.” then sealed his words with a kiss that tasted like sadness, longing, and passion. Sometimes all it takes is time, patience, and love to sort things out. Although it is not always end up like this, it's still worth a try. As cliche as it may sound but they both lived happily ever after.
