Time Machine (separate thread)
From the Old and Torn Portfolio
“This will be my last song for tonight. I offer this to all those who have regrets…” She announced before the music began. ‘I offer this to you, my love.’
I’m sorry that I cannot forget you
She closed her eyes as she immersed herself into the heartbreaking song. The face of her loved one appeared. Her lover had a sad smile, telling her that she had been forgiven – that she had been cleansed of her sins. But she knew deep down in her heart, that it was only wishful thinking that’s giving her illusions.
My love, come back to me
She found herself almost screaming – screaming for her loved one to come back into her arms, wishing fervently that the prayer she offered in song would be answered.
Don’t leave my side, please…
Her eyes started to water as she perfectly executed the last note of the song.
The crowd cheered fervently for her soulful performance. Her eyes scanned the ecstatic sea of fans cheering her on, as she finally finished the last song of her solo concert. She can very well see from the stage that majority of them were now in tears.
She tried to smile as she pushed back the tears that were threatening to fall, but there were stray blobs already making their way down her face. To prevent anyone from seeing her tears, Taeyeon bowed to the crowd until the lights faded.
Still drowning in her emotions, she silently prayed, ‘Please, come back to me.’

The sound of the haunting melody invaded her ears.
