[CONTENTID1]The Truth[/CONTENTID1]

[CONTENTID2]Kyuhyun didn't know how he was able to make it the past couple of days. The pain that he feels seems unbearable still  but somehow, because of his family and friends, he was able to survive. He had left the apartment he had shared with Siwon, even if the latter wanted him to continue living there. No, he just couldn't... that house has full of memories.. good and bad. So he went back to the dorm, living with the rest of the members, going home to his family once in a while. He also had to bear his encounters with Siwon as they have schedules to share, yet they were silent to each other. The members didn't say anything as they knew what happened, leaving them in their own business.

In one of their practices for their upcoming concert, Leeteuk approached Kyuhyun during their break.

"Kyuhyun-ah..."

"Hi, Hyung. What's up?" Kyuhyun smiled at the older.

"Well, I need to tell you something..."

"Hmm..." Kyuhyun said, sipping from his soda.

"You see, Mr. Choi invited us for an event this coming Friday." Leeteuk stopped to check on the maknae's reaction.

Kyuhyun bit on the straw he was sipping at and stared at the bubbles forming on the cola. Hearing Mr. Choi's name didn't feel good somehow. "Why, hyung? What's the occasion?"

Leeteuk then knew that Siwon hadn't told Kyuhyun everything yet. "I am not sure yet, Kyuhyun-ah. Only the managers informed me... but Siwon's father particularly requested for you to sing... solo."

Kyuhyun's eyes widened at the thought. He let out a sigh and turned to the eldest member he trusted the most. "Alright, Teukie hyung. I'll do it. No matter what it is. I'll do it."

Leeteuk patted his dongsaeng at the back and prayed that he will be okay when he learns the truth. "Thank you Kyunah."

Kyuhyun wondered all day about what Leeteuk revealed to him. He couldn't help but wonder why Siwon's father wanted him to sing solo in particular. He was at the dorm with Ryeowook and Sungmin later that day, contented on just lounging around and eating what the older maknae feeds him after their long day of rehearsals. Kyuhyun kept on thinking what he should sing come Friday. He thought he should know what the occasion is so he could pick the right song but he wouldn't know until the day before. Well, that's what he thought.

"!" Ryeowook exclaimed, browsing the internet on his phone.

"What?" Sungmin asked, startled at the younger's reaction. "What's up with the cursing, Wookie?"

Ryeowook peeked at Kyuhyun over the couch then turned to Sungmin and whispered, "Hyung.. look at the internet. It's all over it."

"What is? Aish.. can't you just tell me." Sungmin reacted and reached out for his phone to see what Ryeowook is talking about.

WEDDING OF THE YEAR: CHOI SIWON AND STELLA KIM

SUPER JUNIOR'S SIWON TO BE MARRIED TO FORMER GIRLFRIEND STELLA KIM.

ENGAGEMENT PARTY FOR SIWON AND STELLA SET ON FRIDAY. ANOTHER ARRANGED MARRIAGE FOR A CHAEBOL SUPERSTAR?

Sungmin saw the headlines from different news and KPOP sites. "!" He looked at Ryeowook with surprised eyes.

"Told you you're gonna curse." Ryeowook commented.

The two members were both worried about their maknae, knowing that Siwon hadn't told him everything yet. "Kyu, would you like to go out and take a walk or something. Or maybe grab something to eat?" Sungmin and Ryeowook took turns asking.

Silence. The two knew that their maknae already saw the news.

Kyuhyun got up and walked towards his room, ignoring the two other members.

"Kyuhyun-ah..." Sungmin called out to the younger, more worried than ever.

Kyuhyun stopped at his tracks. "I am fine, hyung. I just need to be alone." He proceeded to his room and locked the door once inside. He didn't knew this was coming. It was only a few days since Siwon and him broke up and now, his ex-boyfriend is getting back with his ex-girlfriend.... not just that, they were getting married. Is this why he told him he doesn't love him anymore? Kyuhyun's heart was aching again. He threw himself on the bed and grabbed a pillow to cover his face, not wanting Ryeowook and Sungmin to hear his cries. He was supposed to be the one who will spend the rest of his life with Siwon. Why? Why is this happening? Kyuhyun's sight was blinded by the tears that kept falling down his face. His chest was hurting so bad, he held on to his heart in every sob he makes.

"Si-Siwon.. My Wo-wonnie.." Kyuhyun choked and shouted in between sobs, it caught the attention of the two older members outside.

"Kyuhyun-ah.. Are you alright?" Sungmin knocked at their maknae's door.

"Kyukyu, please let us in..." Ryeowook pleaded.

Kyuhyun caught his breath before he answered. "Please leave me alone first. Please hyung... Ryeonggu... please..."

Sungmin and Ryeowook left their maknae alone like he wanted, but got more worried. They had to inform Leeteuk. After a few minutes after sending their text messages, their leader called them.

"Where is Kyuhyun?"

"In his room, hyung. He is crying again." Sungmin replied.

"Let him for now. He will reach out when he is ready. Just watch over him okay, Sungmin."

"Nae, hyung. We will. Don't worry. Thanks, hyung."

Sungmin and Ryeowook's heart broke everytime they hear their maknae cry out loud but they could not do anything except to grant Kyuhyun's request to be alone. When it got all silent, they knew that Kyuhyun dozed off, tired from all the crying and sobbing that somehow it made them a little bit at ease when Kyuhyun rested until they did themselves.

"YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO ANNOUNCE IT TO THE WHOLE WORLD, FATHER!" Siwon stormed at his father's office after learning the news. "DO YOU REALLY WANT THE MEDIA TO FEAST ON THIS?"

"Is that what you're mad about son, or is it THAT BOY again?" Siwon's father really knew him well. "I suppose you should have told the boy by now, Siwon."

"I was about to, father, until this hoolabaloo came out! I needed time!" Siwon shook his hair and slumped on the couch.

"Son, you don't have much time. The formal announcement is on Friday."

Siwon stood up and looked at his father. "You really want to hurt Kyuhyun that much, dad, don't you? Well, you've succeeded, father. Matter of fact, you even hurt me, your own son. Please don't blame me if Stella won't be happy for the rest of her life." With that, he stormed out of his father's office.

Mr. Choi thought about his son's last words before he left and somehow felt sorry for his soon to be daughter-in-law. He knew Siwon meant those words. He always knew Siwon loved the boy in his son's heart and for some reason, at the back of his mind, Mr. Choi felt Siwon would still love Kyuhyun no matter what happens.

Siwon didn't actually meet Stella that day they were supposed to meet... the day he acted brilliantly in front of Kyuhyun. He informed her that something came up and Siwon spent the day in church and having coffee by himself. So the next time Stella asked to meet him, Siwon couldn't help but say yes.

As agreed, they were to meet at the cafe they frequented before at the wee hours of the morning to avoid reporters and paparazzi. Stella was already there when Siwon arrived. He sat across the girl, put off a blank face, avoided her gaze, and sipped on his coffee the moment he was settled.

"I am happy to see you too, Wonnie." Stella said sarcastically, recognizing the man's behavior.

"Stella, please don't think I am excited as you about this marriage. I am going through it mainly because I have no choice." The tall man still didn't look at Stella.

Those words were like a knife piercing Stella's heart. "Thanks for your honesty, Wonnie." She didn't know what else to say.

"You're welcome and please stop calling me that. Only one person in this world can call me by that name." Siwon looked at Stella with stern eyes.

"I am sorry." Stella apologized. "I just got used to it since I called you by that name before."

"Whatever.. So, what's it about? Why do we have to meet this time?"

"Your father and my dad wanted us to talk about the wedding.. wedding plans." Stella told Siwon. "The dress, the guests, the entourage..."

"You decide and choose what you want, I don't care. For me, no guests, except my family and Super Junior since my father already invited them." Siwon replied.

"What about the ring? We should buy them together, shouldn't we?" Stella was hopeful Siwon would agree.

"Whatever.. well, come to think of it... no, I'll deal with the ring and you just have to agree with what I buy, okay?"

Stella nodded.

"Why are you like this, Siwon?" She suddenly asked.

Siwon put down his coffee and looked at the lady across her. Stella was still beautiful as she was before and if things were different, maybe he could fall for her again. But Siwon knew no one and nothing could change his heart. "You know why, Stella. I have told you before."

"Kyuhyun..." Stella knew, she just didn't want to accept it.

Siwon nodded. "Yes, and for your information, Stella, I still love him and will love him for the rest of my life. I am sorry if this will hurt you but it is best that you know now."

The things Siwon told her brought Stella more pain. "I understand, Siwon." Stella didn't know what else to say. Then, her attention was caught by the two familiar faces that just came in at the cafe. Siwon noticed her silence and turned to where she was staring. He was shocked to see what she saw.

Standing by the counter ordering were Donghae and... Kyuhyun. Siwon closed his eyes, remembering that Donghae loves the Americano in this cafe too. He opened his eyes again, wanting to look at the beautiful boy so close to him, almost within his reach. He missed Kyuhyun.. missed their time together. Suddenly, their eyes met and the younger male couldn't believe what he saw.

Kyuhyun was shocked to see a familiar face at the far end table of the coffee shop. He can recognize that figure anytime, anywhere. It was Siwon... and he was not alone. He was with a girl, and he knew that girl was Stella.

Stella looked at Siwon the whole time the man was staring at Kyuhyun at the counter. She saw love and long
