Flashback

Sooyoung ran as fast as she could with her legs,, past the heavy snow that was heavy on her feet and the views of people who saw her strangely. The brunette stopped at a European-style church,, bowed on her knees,, Sooyoung trying to catch her breath. After making sure that she is ready,, Sooyoung walked slowly and into the church. Once inside,, she could see clearly the figure of a man she knew was kneeling in front of the statue of the altar. Sooyoung could faintly hear the sound of crying coming from the man,, her heart ached like cut each slice just heard heard his sobs. Sooyoung trying hard to hold back tears of her that she was not to cry too. Slowly and with caution Sooyoung walked closer, the man did not seem to hear Sooyoung's presence, he was still on his knees and cried.

" WHAT MY FAULT UNTIL GOD DO THIS TO ME !!?? " Xiumin shouted again

He felt angry,, frustrated,, sad, , shocked,, and did not accept the fate. After a long silence, he slowly stood up.

" I just want a normal life " he said in a shaky voice " I'm not even do anything for my parents but ... " His sentence is not finished

" There is not anyone that is not fair to you Xiumin ah ... " Sooyoung said softly " we can certainly find a cure " she added

" Not Youngie .. no one will ever find a cure .. no one has ever found a cancer drug .. "

Sooyoung's eyes have started watering,, her heart shattered into pieces seeing her bestfriend in a state of despair and helplessness.

" w-we will try "

" I only have six months " Xiumin said softly with a bitter smile " until I die "

Xiumin last words really destroy Sooyoung defense, she jumped into the arms of Xiumin,, hugged him tightly as if to give all the strength and life which she had for him. Sooyoung started crying,, Xiumin also crying again, they share their cries together.

" Hi .. " Sooyoung said softly " I miss you Minnie " she chuckled

Sooyoung took Xiumin hand and held it,, his hands are very cold and weak. Sooyoung was frightened when she felt a weak Xiumin pulse .

" Do you remember when you used to always give your star to me so I can put it on the Christmas tree ? I miss those moments .. "

Sooyoung's eyes began to burn and watery, but she holds back her tears

" I'm here to thank you and sorry for you .. "

Her tears began to melt,,

" Thank you for all the stars you've given me .. thank you for being my friend and thank you for ... "

Sooyoung pulled one hand and wipe her tears with a quivering,,
