love is you&me;, isn't it ?

The noona who got away;

It is a Sunday today. 

taking a stroll in a park, lazying infront of a TV are the typical things people do on a Sunday.

but in my case these are not the norms. 

My name is Lee-hongki. I am the lead vocalist of my band named FT-Island. 

you should have probably know me very well, and I know you must have much more information about me 

than maybe i know about myself. But, one thing for sure  that you did not have a clue about  me is, my love life. Heck, its complicated.

 

Today is our group's comeback day. We are scheduled to have our comeback at Inkigayo and have a rehearsal stage beforehand.

We have to arrive 5 hours earlier than the scheduled live performance. Our schedule for today is jam-packed as this is our comeback after 

years of hiatus. My love life was the cause. It wrecked both physically and mentally for me. I felt sorry for my group members. They were very supportive

and loyal to our label and FT-Island. Aside from my family, they were the ones who pushed me without fail. I almost gave up on life and music but thankfully I

have these people that I am very grateful for. That is why,  I am very geared to ace our comeback performance with all that I got. I have to make it up 

somehow. To show them that I am 'alive' once again. 

 

And so , the salon become the place we headed to first every morning. We had all our makeups and clothings done in about 3 hours. I used to dislike 

putting all the girly stuff on my face, but I got used to it somehow as it is essential for artists to put on asides from cool clothings before getting up on stage.

After we have arrived at SBS building for Inkigayo, we got our own waiting room to rest before we will be called for the rehearsal stage.

 We found out that our room were decorated beforehand by our lovely primadonnas. We had foods and snacks laid out on the arrays of table.

The members did not waste any time before they gobble down every food that they can reach. They must be starving from all the prep time at the 

saloon just now. I grab a few light snacks and bring it with me to balcony. I look upon the view and find it very therapeutic. Although the scenary  is filled 

with skyscraper buildings, it help ease my mind to be fully prepared before our live stage which is in few hours. 

As I am still munching down my snacks, the faint sound of fans screaming caught my attention. It came from the parking lot which I can clearly see from

where I stand here in the balcony. The fans seems to be carrying a spade-shaped lightsticks. My heart seems to be beating faster because my instinct

are telling me things that I might be true. I calmly wait for the artist to emerge from the big black van. 

Lo and behold, and I see her face first and foremost to came out of the van. I can feel my heart stop beating for a second. I hurriedly run out of the room,

ignoring all the staffs and my group members who called out for me. My mind seems to be blank, but my body seems to be reacting on their own.

I reach infront of her waiting room in less than 5 minutes. My breathing is rough and uneven. My hands are trembling from all the mixed feelings when

I first saw her face. How can I not remember that today is also their comeback day.

I can hear her faint voice from here. Her sweet voice who were once sang lullaby for me to sleep. Her sweet voice who were once the one who gave me

strength with just a phonecall. That voice used to be mine. 

 

I gather all the strength and finally, I pushed open the door. 

 Our eyes met for the first time in a while. I can feel that all eyes are on me. But I just keep staring at her. Only her; Park Bom.

I keep standing there, unable to move because of her. She seems to be in shock as well but soon I felt that my hands are being dragged away.

Park bom took my hand and lead me to the vacant waiting room nearby. She sat down at the edge of the sofa and I do too. We were both kept mum until she  

break the silence. 

" How are you doing now, Hongki?" She seems to be calm. But I saw her hands trembling.

I took her in my arms right away. " I miss you bom. I miss you noona..." 

She did not pull away,she kept still in my arm but did not return my embrace. I hug her right tightly and said, " Should I stop waiting for you? Should I?"

and suddenly I hear her sobs faintly, and it became louder after a while.

I kept still, and stay hugging her tightly ,not wanting to let her go. She cried for a good 20 minutes when she finally stops. 

I gently pull away and cupped her face to take a good look of it. I reach for a Kleenex and wipe clean her smudge eyeliners and mascara.

She is as beautiful as ever underneath all that makeup.

"Im sorry, Hongki. I was selfish..." Bom murmured to me while tears still glistening in her eyes.

I hushed her and put my finger on her lips gestured her to stop. 

 

2 years ago, I got to know Bom or noona from an acquaintance. We get along really well and got into a really beautiful relationship.

We did not go public about it. Our life back then as a couple went really smooth and perfect. We would go on dates and outings together and enjoy 

each other presence. All was going so fine when Bom took a sudden change. She became a different person and took no interest in developing our 

relationship. I assume of the pressure that her sudden rise in her career gave her the nerves.  She kept giving me excuses and reasons to end our

courtship but  I knew she felt guilty towards her group members, 2NE1.  She was afraid that she could not manage her time well between me and her

career. I told her that I was willing to wait. But there was no respons from her eversince. But I kept waiting.

 

" Hongki, I don't deserve this. You shouldn't have waited for me..." She sobs faintly again.

" I made my promise, didn't I? and so I am still waiting for you, sweet. " I started to tear as well as I said those words. 

" You idiot, why must you suffer for me..I can't forgive myself if you do this to me.." Bom lightly push me away.

I caressed her face and wipe those tears away. I lightly kiss her forehead and face her in the eye and said to her,

" now that I have waited for you, would you promise me that we both get a happy ending together? "

She burst into tears for the umpteenth time, but this time,  I know its her tears of joy. 

She practically landed herself on me and hug me ever so tightly muttering " I promise".

 

Both of our group has a succesful comeback. But our fans sure could notice both of our puffy eyes.

and...we live happily ever after ~♥
