It's hard to trust someone after they hurt you...

 

After what happened, Tiffany walked steadily on the street. She had millions thougts going on in her

mind. Who was she? Why were she here? Why did Nichkhun left her standing alone outside his house?

Who is she to him? But most importantly, who was Tiffany to Nichkhun now? Tiffany stopped for a moment

and took a seat on a bench near a park. She took out her cellphone to check if he texted or called her. Nothing.

Was she a burden to him? That what's Tiffany thought. Tiffany stayed on the bench for awhile. She needed

time to think. After awhile, she looked at her time. 5:35 pm. Time for diner. She didn't want to go home yet ,

instead, she called his dad telling him she will have diner at Taeyeon's place. It was a lie and her dad bought

it. She was hopping to go eat alone tonight. After that call, she took the bus that drove her near a shopping mall.

She thanked the driver and ran out the bus. She looked at a the big building in front of her. It was familiar for her

because she had come here a million time during her time off. She entered the shopping mall,went downstair

and order some food. The food was kinda cheap because it was fast food. Thank god she had the money.

The took a spot and ate her food calmly. After finishing in the food, she found herself laying on the table,checking

her phone for any text messages. It had none of his. She stood up,walked out the shopping mall and looks at the

sky. 

Tiffany : (I need to know what's happening!)

Suddenly, she heard someone called her name. She turned her head and found Wooyoung standing next to her.

Wooyoung : What are you doing?

Tiffany : Looking...(Looks at the gound)

Wooyoung felt something odd about Tiffany. At school, she was energetic, happy,smilling, and now, the total opposite.

Tiffany : Anyway, see you later. I need to go somewhere.

Tiffany was going to walked but  was stopped by Wooyoung's hand on her shoulder.

Wooyoung : Where? 

Tiffany : Somewhere...

Wooyoung : Are you feeling okay? If everything alright? Did something happen?

Tiffany : (Annoyed) Just leave me alone!!! 

Tiffany yelled and ran as quickly as possible away from Wooyoung. She needed time alone. While Tiffany ran ,

she didn't know that Wooyoung kept up with her paste and followed her all this time.Tiffany stopped a while and

sat on the grass of another park. She looked at the sky and it was starting to darken.She also noticed someone

sitting next to her coughing.

Wooyoung : (Coughs,coughs) You sure run fast.

Tiffany : Why did you followed me.

Wooyoung : Because it's dangerous leaving a girl alone out in the dark.

Tiffany : Yah right.

Wooyoung : I was worried about you. (Concerned look)

Tiffany : (Shocked at his words) (He's not joking...) I'm alright...Alright...

Tiffany suddenly felt water in her eyes. She knew that she was going to cry. She tried to held it in but couldn't. She

layed his head between her knees trying to hide her face from Wooyoung. How embarrasing.

Tiffany : (Still crying) I'm...okay..

Wooyoung lift Tiffany's head up and placed it on his shoulder. Who knew Wooyoung had the courage to do that. It

might be because Wooyoung had finally be willing to make his life worthy for Tiffany... Anyway, Wooyoung threw

his arms around Tiffany's body and held her tighly letting her cry on his shoulder. For Tiffany, she stood there crying. 

Tiffany : I'm...so..rry... 

Wooyoung : Don't be...(I'm here for you)

Tiffany : It's just...I'm...hurt Wooyoung....I'm hurt...

Wooyoung : It's alright. Everything's gonna be alright.

After awhile now, they seperates themselves. Tiffany layed her head on the nearest tree and stopped crying.

Wooyoung also layed his head on the tree. They both looked at the bright city landscape. 

TIffany : It's beautiful.

Wooyoung : (Not hesitating) What happened?

Tiffany : (Should I tell him...) Wooyoung? Can I trust you?

Wooyoung : (Surprised at her question) Yes...why?

Tiffany : Just saying. Because I'm having so trusted issues with some people.

Wooyoung : If you have some trust issue then I can say this. Trust only the people that love and care for you. Not

the ones who hurts you.

Tiffany : (Harder for you to tell) Yeah...

They both got up after mentionning that it was time to go home because it was clearly dark now. Wooyoung

offered taking Tiffany home on his bike that was locked near the shopping mall. By the way, Wooyoung 

accidentally met Tiffany outside the shopping mall because he was there to buy some video games. We 

conclude now he's a game freak. Anyway, Tiffany hoped on the bench of the bike and Wooyoung sat on the sit

and they rode off. Tiffany was comfy on the bike because it isn't the first time she was on his bike. While

holding Wooyoung's waist, she looked at the dark sky. 

Tiffany : (I'm gonna talk to him tomorrow...)

For Wooyoung, during that ride, it was tough because he had to carry all this weight but for a man, he had

to do it. At least, he liked the way things were. Blush. Times goes by fast, they arrived at Tiffany's place.

Tiffany step on the ground and greeted Wooyoung.

Tiffany : See you tomorrow.

Wooyoung : Bye. 

Wooyoung was going to go back to his bike but was stopped by Tiffany's back hug.

TIffany : Thank you for today and don't worry, I'm alright. PS, don't tell anyone.

Tiffany pulls herself away and entered her house.Wooyoung stood there motionless.

Wooyoung : (You drive me crazy!!!)

And soon,they both were in their own house sleeping.

 

The next day at school,ealry in the morning, Tiffany was trying to find someone. In her way, was Tiffany's friend.

She felt frustrated because her plan was all set.

Yuri : Fany! How are you today?

Jessica : You're not like yesterday...Yeah! This Tiffany is back.

Tiffany : Yah you!

Taeyeon : Anyway, let's ignore the both of them.

Yuri and Jessica : Hey!!

Taeyeon : (Wisper to TIffany) Have you done it?

Tiffany : (Wisper back) Not going. Need to find out things now. (Signaling her that she needs to go)

Taeyeon : (Got her message) Yurim let's go say hi to Minho. Jessica come along. (Yank them to walk)

Jessica : What about Tiffany.

Taeyeon : She has so things to do. So see you late Fany! (WInks at her)

Tiffany : See you guys later. (Thank her by mumbling to her)

 

Tiffany searched everywhere. She couldn't find him. Suddenly, a light flashed in her mind. She ran upstair

to the usual place where he always stays during school hours. She ran up the stairs to the final level and

opened the door. Wind blew on her face. She looked to the right and found him laying his head on the

concrete walls of the building. She sat next to him and poked her.He noticed and opened his eyes.

Nichkhun : Oh hey? Good morning.

TIffany : Good morning.

Akward silence filled the air.

Tiffany couldn't wait anymore. She had to know.

TIffany : By the way, what was yesterday about. You know when I stood near your house and you were with a

girl,..That thing.

Nichkhun : Oh. It's now what you think. The girl was just a friend of mine. She came from Chine and moved 

back here.

Tiffany : Moved back?

Nichkhun : Yah. She lived her and is my friend since middle school.

Tiffany : (Middle school! Yoona...)

Nichkhun : She came to meet me and I invited her to eat dinner with my family. She knew my parents. By the way,

sorry for letting you stay there alone. Hope I didn't cause anything.

Tiffany : Um...No worries. So what is her name?

Nichkhun : It's Victoria.

Tiffany : Victoria...

Nichkhun : Anyway, why did you come at my house yesterday?

Tiffany : Oh! Nothing. (I can't...)

Nichkhun : Ok. Anyway, class is about to start. Let's go.

Nichkhun stood up and offers his hand to Tiffany to help her get up. Tiffany accepted it it. Then, they walked to

class together.During the walk on the stairs, TIffany touched the hand where he touched hers. It felt weird somehow.

TIffany : (Trust...)

 

Lunchtime has started. Tiffany sat with her friends for lunch at their usaul place. She signaled to Taeyeon that

eveything is ok now. During lunch, she ate her food like usual and talked with Yuri,Jessica,Taeyeon and Seohyun.

But she was always looking at Nichkhun. She's getting an uneasy feeling. After lunch,Tiffany walked outside

alone for awhile. She found students playing football,tennis,chatting among each other and she also found couple

eating together. It looked so perfect. Leaving them alone, she noticed some students dancing. She looked at them

from a far distance and noticed 3 girls and 2 guys. One of the guys were Taecyeon. Havign nothing to do, she

walked to his group. Tiffany taped Taecyeon shoulder. He turned around and greeted her.

Taecyeon : Oh! Tiffany? What are you doing here?

Tiffany : Just walking and you? What's happening here?

Tiffany noticed the girls praticing a routine from an idol group song. She found it interesting for a reason.

Taecyeon : There just praticing for the show at the end of the semester.

Suddenly, a girl appeared behing Taecyeon's back.

Yoona : Fany?

Tiffany : Yoona?! What are you doing here? With Taecyeon. (WInks at Taecyeon)

Taecyeon: (Mumbles Hey!)

Yoona : (Though of idea) Girls! I found someone!

Girl 1 : Her? 

Girl 2 : She looks okay. Can she handle it?

Yoona : I think she can. Because Jessica told me that Tiffany took some ballet when she was young.

Tiffany : Wait what's happening?

Yoona : So...Fany?...Help us!!! Please. We need more girls to preform with us at the end of the semester show.

We're hoping to find another girl to dance the routine with us and you happen to drop by.

Tiffany : Me!

Yoona : Please. (Smiles heavily)

Taecyeon : I think it's a good idea. 

Tiffany : I don't think I can. I think I'm gonna make mistakes.

Yoona : With some practices, you can do it for sure. So....

Tiffany looks at the faces around her. They were desperate.

Tiffany : Fine.

All: Yes!!

Yoona : Anyway, let me introduce you to our club. It a dance club in the school. (Points at each member) Here is

Hyoyeon. She's a 3rd year like Yuri's boyfriend. She loves dancing that's why she's here. Here is Sunny. She's

also a 3rd year student. As you may know, the students calls her the agyeo queen of the school. It's quite annoying.

Sunny : Hey!!

Yoona : Moving on, this guy is Chansung. He's also in his 3rd year. He's a friend of Taecyeon. He likes dancing as

his hobby. 

Taecyeon : We introduce you the members so...Welcome to the Dancing club!

They all cheer for their new member. The girls stood near Tiffany and greeted her.

Sunny : OMG . Thank you for helping us! (Cute)

Hyoyeon : Yah! Stop with the agyeo. Go and do it to guys instead.

All except Sunny : (Laughs)

Hyoyeon : Anyway, thank you for joining. We hope you'll like this activity  as we do.

Tiffany : (Laughs) I'll try my best to do a good job.

Hyoyeon : Hope we can find some other people to join.

Yoona : (Master mind) I have some in mind.

Taecyeon and Chansung : Weirdo.

Yoona : Yah!

All except Yoona : (Laughs)

 

After school, Tiffany noticed Yoona dragging Yuri,Jessica,Taeyeon,Seohyun and Minho to the dance club.

Tiffany though for a moment but realize what Yoona had planned for them. Tiffany knew exactly what and laughed

for awhile. Tiffany walked outside and saw Taecyeon leaving too. She ran up to him.

Tiffany : (Pats Taecyeon's back and look at him) Let's go home together?

Taecyeon : Sure.

During their walk, they made a stop on a bench to take a break of walking. They decide to walk home even

though their usually take the bus.At least they have no exams to study and homeworks to do today.

Taecyeon : By the way, thanks for joining the club. We need some members.

Tiffany : No prob. But why so urgent?

Taecyeon : Well, you know the show, the winner will win scholarship at the famous arts and preformance school

in Seoul and we hope that Hyoyeon gets it. Her dream is to be a dancer or entertainer and she is really good at

dancing.

Tiffany : Sounds nice. I'm scarred I'm gonna mest things up but I'll put a lot of efforts to help her win that scholarship.

Taecyeon : Thanks.

Tiffany looked around and found that couple she saw during her walk walking hands in hands. That made her 

think of something and realizing something she needs to ask and know from Taecyeon.

Tiffany : Taecyeon? Can I ask you something?

Taecyeon : Sure. 

Tiffany : I know you know Victoria, right?

Taecyeon : (Shocked) Um...What about her.

Tiffany : So you know her. Can you tell me who is her and 

Taecyeon : (Cuts Tiffane sentence) I think you better ask Nichkhun.

Tiffany : I did but lately I feel uncertain around him like I feel what he said it's not partly true. I hope you can tell me

about her.

Taecyeon : I don't think I can.

TIffany : (Begged her, not on her knees) Please

Taecyeon : You sure are ready for it?

Tiffany : Why do you ask me that?

Taecyeon : Because what I say may turn things aroung for you.

Tiffany : (Thinks for awhile) I'm ready.

Tiffany heart's stopped for a moment. Her mind went crazy. All these things he said, could it be true. It is true but

Tiffany can't manage to believe it because its sadden her. A proposal...That's what affected her the most.
