About Heartstrings.
Hey to all!
I know I have not updated Heartstrings and honestly, there will be no update till September or October or I don't know. Everything is really messed up right now and my heart isn't in this one.
Now, the main thing why I am writing this is to clear up things about the same.
Many of the readers think I have made Baekhyun too weak or too stupid. That he is too blinded by an unrequited love and can't accept the fact that Chanyeol is not in love with him anymore-which IS SO NOT TRUE!
He knows everything, it's all clear in his head but the thing is, he has never seen anybody else other than Chanyeol. Chanyeol has been his friend since childhood. He has seen Baek Hyun in his happy days, protected him during his worst days and always has cared for him. They have been best friends and then boyfriends and were even about to get married before Seohyun happened. He has loved him with all his heart so this is going to hurt him. Like really, really bad.
And he is grateful to the Parks for saving him from the hell-hole and help him with reshaping his life. They gave him a proper education, love, care and everything else his parents had given him. Baekhyun kind of worshipped them for everything they have done for him. Now when you suddenly come to know that whatever you got from the people you trusted most was mere an act for gaining popularity, won't you feel broken? I know I will! I will be angry, hurt, sad, everything! This is exactly what Baekhyun has been feeling.
About ChanBaek. Chanyeol does not love Baekhyun and he knows that too. He also knows he can't get him but does that mean that feelings just vanish into thin air like that? It takes time. If you remember, Baekhyun never voiced out his feelings, it was Chanyeol who confessed first. It was him who asked to wait for him and Baekhyun just did that. Won't you feel disheartened and lost when suddenly they say that they have found someone else while you were here, counting every second for their return?
I don't know if you guys have noticed this or not but Baekhyun does not voice out his feelings. He may be utterly broken inside but he won't ever say a word about it to anyone. He only thinks and cries alone. He thinks of himself as a burden (after he heard Parks conversation), someone who is unworthy. All these bottled up feelings led to his depression and then eventually converted into self-harm. This thing is real. I HAVE BEEN THROUGH THIS! So no, Baekhyun isn't weak. He is simply lost. Please understand that there is a big difference between the two terms.
There also are less of ChanBaek interactions because this fic mainly focuses on Baekhyun's feelings and thoughts but that does not mean there won't be any in the future! It's a CHANBAEK Fic!
Lastly, I wanna say that Heartstrings was meant to go at a slow pace. I don't want to rush things here neither I plan to. Because THAT is WHAT will be unrealistic.
For me at least.
So, if you guys have any problem with the storyline or the characters, you guys are free to unsubscribe. I am not forcing you to read this, am I?
I really am thankful to you guys for loving this fic till now and always encouraging me with your comments but please, just understand that it's my story and I won't change the plot to please you.
I am so sorry for this, maybe I am being rude and very ungrateful but I think this was necessary.
Again, thank you and take care everyone!
FIGHTING!
