Piles of Regrets
Taecyeon’s checking his hair one more time in the mirror. It’s been eight weeks since he knew Yoona and now they’re officially dating for the first time. He’s waiting for her in her luxurious apartment lobby.
Something in Taecyeon’s subconscious mind is telling him that what he’s doing is very wrong. How could he move on so quickly from Han Sera? he’s still missing her presence every night and how could he agreed to this stupid idea his parents have.
Yoona is pretty, graceful and kind but she’s not Sera. she’s not goofy enough, she’s not daring enough, she’s not as fearless and not as good as Sera, no one will ever be as spectacular as Sera to him. however, the pressure he gets from his parents are enough to make him agreed on dating the girl he just met several weeks ago. Taecyeon sometimes wonder how could he be so crazy to ask Sera to marry him only after a week of knowing her, and the crazier thing is the fact she said yes.
Sera managed to mess with his mind with her sweet look that fooled him for a bit, at first when he saw her, he thought Sera was a ladylike girl that can’t do any boyish activity—which she proved to be very wrong. Taecyeon had the most fun when he spent his days with her, even until the end of their relationship, Han Sera still gave him the kind of excitement she gave him when they first met. Most of the night he regrets his decision to divorce her. He thought he shouldn’t be over-sensitive with the situation, maybe he should’ve let her explain herself—Taecyeon believed in her, and the little voice in his mind knew for sure that she’s not cheating on him. He mostly regrets his selfishness, especially after Sera mentioned how sorry she was for losing their baby.
He knew he hasn’t been a great husband during her post-miscarriage time, he knew he should’ve stayed beside her and support her. He shouldn’t pull himself away and make her think he hated her and blamed her for what happened. Because he didn’t. He was too weak to look at her in the eyes, because he felt it was his fault that led to the accident. If he didn’t ask her to shop that night, if he’s not too lazy to park the car and pick her from the store himself, all of his regrets piles up and the outcome was his bad attitude toward his wife.
His ex-wife, how much he misses her right now.
Earlier this morning he rounded their old apartment in the hope of catching a glimpse of Han Sera. He knew he’s supposed to go pick up Yoona but he’s hoping to see his ex-wife by the apartment complex, simply just to see if she’s okay. He wants to know if she’s as miserable as he is right now, he wants to makes sure he’s given her enough to live by. Because he can’t move on from her and he never will.
“Oppa, have you been waiting?” Yoona greet him gracefully.
Taecyeon’s awake from his daydream about his ex-wife and pay attention to the pretty girl in front of him. She’s wearing a white long-sleeved dress with a brown ankle length gladiator sandals. Sure everyone who see her will say she’s pretty and Taecyeon will be in denial if he says she’s not pretty. But then again, he was once married to the prettiest girl in his eyes and nothing can change that.
“I was just arrived.” He offers his arm for her to hold on to while they’re walking to the car.
“Oppa, I have a good news.” She looks at him with a big winning smile.
“What is it?”
“I’m accepted as intern in a great hospital, in the pediatric department. It’s a dream come true.” She almost jumps out of excitement.
Taecyeon has put on his best acting face and plays along with her. “Really? Congratulation! Shall we celebrate today?”
“Ne!” She widens her eyes excitedly, “Can we also go to my future work place? I want to look around if that’s possible.”
“Sure, we can do that.”
