Part II.

"Give it up for Ailee!"

Audience clapped for a bit and went silent as the light went off as well. Music started playing and the spot light fell on her.

"Another day quietly passes again
I am just living like that
I can't do anything
Only memories remain

If only I can love again after time passes
It would be so nice

Tears, my memories can't forget you
Heart, my memories can't let you go
If only I can see you for just one day my love

I can't turn things back now
Only memories remain

If only I can approach you after time passes
It would be so nice

Tears, my memories can't forget you
Heart, my memories can't let you go
If only I can see you for just one day my love

I know it's love, even the past days
My tears are flowing.."

••••••

"Aigoo. That was very beautiful. The emotion while you're singing left us emotional too."

Says the Mc.

"Thank you so much."

Ailee said as she bowed her head as an appreciation.

"You took a break for a year, and you came back with a very beautiful single. Ice flower right? Why you choose it for title?"

"By the time i was writing the song, i was on this place where frost flower are really the attraction. Then the production staff heard the song while i was recording.. It should be frost flower but since the song was going to be a ost of a new drama we decided to make it ice flower thats fits the drama."

"Oh. Yes i already the song played on the trailer and i knew right there it was you. Even without your confirmation a lot of fans already new and became excited."

"I'm so thankful for the feed back. I was surprised that they will welcome me back that early."

"Yes congratulations. So what's the story behind the song? It was really sad but beautiful song."

"Oh. Its a song about a person who can't move on. Still wanting to see her love one despite on how long it had been. Hahaha. I didn't really knew that it will become big like this."

"Let me ask you this, Is the song related to you?"

"Hahaha. In a way yes, it was somehow related to me or people related to me."

"You really did a good job there. A lot of people love it, somehow their into the song or experiencing the same thing."

"Yes. I'm really thankful for that."

"As far as i remember, the Ailee who's been here the last time was this very cute girl and adorable. Not that i'm saying you're not but you've become different. I mean more matured and y like you're comeback song Don't Touch Me. Is there any reason for the new look?"

"Well since it's been a year, i thought that it would be good if i'll change my style. Though i'm didn't totally changed. Guess i became really matured this time."

"Ah. Good luck and welcome back! Glad to see you again. Let's give her a round of applause everyone!"

"Thank you so much!"

The lights went off and she started performing her comeback song "Don't Touch Me".

••••••••••••••

It was past 9pm when she got home. Totally exhausted since she's been on different shows promoting her comeback and latest single.

It should be only her comeback song, but when the company heard the ballad song they asked her to release and take it as a new drama ost.

She was glad. She didn't thought that they will love it. It was important to her. At first she was hesitant to release it, but she finally agreed.

Sitting on her window side, she can see the beautiful view of the city lights. It made her tireless. With a cup of tea on her hand, for her it was perfect way to relax after the whole day work.

Suddenly her phone rang and caught her attention.

It was unknown number.

"Hello?"

She asked as she picked up the phone.

"Yejin?"

That made her froze for a second.

"Chen?"

She knew it was him but still wanted to confirm.

"Yes! Aish. Why didn't you inform me about coming back? By the way congratulations!"

Chen excitedly said.

"Sorry, i was busy with all the things. Oh and thanks! It was really glad to be back."

She said with smile on her face.

"I'm still upset that you didn't even bid me a goodbye or at least inform me, us. But what important is you're back!"

The truth is, she intentionally didn't said anything to them. She doesn't want anything related to him, but Chen's is her friend still so it made her guilty back then.

"I'm so sorry. You know it's hard for me too."

Chen sighed on the other line.

"Silly. It's okay we understand. Chanyeol also excited to see you and very happy when he found out. Actually it's him who told us."

Chen on the other hand quickly changed the topic. And Ailee was glad.

"Tell him i missed him too. When we're all free we can hang out. Just like the old times."

She happily said.

"We'll look forward on that! I gotta go, still have practice. Congratulations again on your comeback!"

"Thanks!"

And it ended. She sighed.

She sat on her bed and accidentally turned her head on her side table. She saw something that made her want to cry. It was their picture.

She picked up the picture. Memories of the past came to her mind like it was only yesterday.

"I miss you.."

Tears escaped her eyes. It was still painful. No matter how hard she tried to accept that things are not the same before, no matter how hard she tried to move on, she still love him with all her heart.

"Did you miss me?"

"I guess not. I can see that you're happy now.. With her.."

••••••••

It was Sunday morning and Ailee decided to go to the place where everything started. Her favorite place.

She arrived few minutes ago. Instead of getting out of her car, she remained inside and watched the first snow of winter falling down.

There's a lot of memory she has on this place, but then again there's a painful one.

She decided to went inside the resort. As she approached the lobby, she was surprised when someone called her name.

"Yejin!"

She turned around to see his "baby brother". It was Chanyeol.

"Chan-chan!"

She was surprised and happy of course since it's been awhile since she last saw them.

"Aish. Not that one!"

Chanyeol hugged his Noona tightly. He missed her and very upset when she found out she took a break and went back to US without letting them know. But he thought she has a valid reason and came to understand her.

"I missed you! Did you get taller or i just got smaller?"

"Funny! You're just small. You lost a lot weight!"

Chanyeol said as he noticed that her chubby cheeks seemed to be not like before and don't get him wrong for checking her out.

"Am i look y now? I told you! I'll be y one day hahaha."

They both laughed with that.

"The whole boys are here too! I can't wait to see their reaction once they found out you're here too!"

She froze.

"You mean-"

She didn't get to finished her sentence as someone interrupted them.

"Yejin! Kyaaaaaaahhhh!"

It was her best friend Tiffany.

"Tiffany! You're here too!"
