Hello Readers ! We are back! Finally TOP and Daesung are back from Japan. Everyone was at the airport except for Anna, or so what they thought. TOP and Shirley ended up in a kiss but what worse was Anna saw everything.

Wait for me.. This sentence kept repeating itself in her head. She remembered his text, wiping her tears with the back of heri hands, she then took a deep breath. When she got back to her senses, she turned and left. She walked away from that scene, away from the airport. She wasn’t sure where to go but she just wanted to get away from there. Her steps quickened and her speedwalking turned to running. She only knew that she wanted to get as far as possible away from him.. After that 1 week of missing him and being away from him, he managed to hurt her even more.. She ran as far and fast as she could, ignoring the looks of the passersby that saw her running and crying at the same time. She stopped after running for who knows how long and she found herself at a neighbourhood park. She walked slowly towards the park, plotting herself on the nearest bench. She was panting, sweating and crying all at the same time. Her heart hurt so bad right now, it felt like millions of knife had stabbed her continuously. It hurt so much that her chest felt constricted and suffocation her as she cried and attempted to in as much oxygen as she can to make her chest feel better. She held onto her chest as she cried out loud, she wasn’t even sure if there were anyone at the park as she released all her pent up tears.

After a long time of crying and venting out her sadness, she took a taxi back home. She stepped in to her apartment and kicked off her shoes and proceeded to drag herself under the covers and hide in there. At least the warmth of the covers around her would be able to ease some pain as her tears renewed the dried up tears path from the crying earlier on. She could not be bothered to do anything else. The pain in her left chest was still lingering and she felt her heart dying a little as the time passes by. She just laid in bed from the exhaustion.

(An hour later at the penthouse..)

“ Finally! Babe.. Where are you?” Julie let out a sigh of relief when Anna finally picked up the phone.. Anna moved the screen to the front of her face see that they send almost fifteen messages in total and she didn’t even reply to one. She put the phone back to her right ear.

“ Sorry..” was all Anna replied..

“ Why didn’t you come to the airport? We were all waiting for you..” Julie told her, Seungri pressed his ear on the back of the phone held by Julie, trying to listen as well..

" I- I did ..." She choked out her words.. Julie tried to shove Seungri off, but he wouldn’t budge..

“ What?! Where were you? We didn’t even see you.. Why didn’t you come and find us?” Anna could feel tears coming out from her eyes again, she quickly used a pillow to to stop the tears from out..

“ Sorry, babe.. I have to go…” She disconnected the call quickly before her sobs became louder.. She fell back to bed and began pouring out her tears in her pillow. She was feeling really horrible. After this one week, she honestly thought that things would be slightly better but she was so wrong. She felt even worse after seeing her boyfriend kissing another woman. In fact, not just any other woman. This woman that he loved once, the same woman that broke his heart once and now she's back, pregnant.

“Where was she?” Seungri asked Julie the moment she release the phone from her right ear..

“ She was at the airport..” She knew something was wrong. Anna is not the kind of girl that would leave just like that, she would try her best and stay. Something bad must have happened. Hearing this, Jiyong felt really uncomfortable. He stood up from the sofa, took his car keys and left the penthouse, immediately driving over to her house. He knocked on her door anxiously. Yes he knew he shouldn’t be at her house, at least not now but his heart led him here. He didn’t care about the rest. He just wanted to know how Anna was feeling and he knew his decision was right when the door opened and Anna’s puffy eyes came in to view. Without a word, he stepped into her apartment and pulled her in for a hug.

Her tears began to stream down her cheeks even more the moment their body came in contact with each other. That hug from Jiyong caused her to lost control as she broke down and cry hysterically.. He tightened his hold around her as a way to comfort her and let her cry to her heart's content. He sighed, feeling the ache in his heart as he saw how shattered and dead she looked.

The leader kept mum as he hug her, not wanting to interrupt her crying session. He silently led her from the door to her bedroom, he would just follow her wherever she wanted to go. If she wants to talk, he will definitely be there for her if not, he will just be physically there for her. Whether it’s for her to cry on, or to hit on, he would there..

Poor thing, both of their hearts are aching..

He turned his head to look at Anna’s sleeping form. She must be really tired. She still had her makeup on, her foundation was still intact, but her tears had probably washed away her eyeliner, and her mascara was smudged. Poor girl didn’t even bother to do about almost anything and everything, except to cry her broken heart out. Jiyong let out a sigh.. What happened earlier? Why was she so hurt?! Did TOP do something? Was it Shirley? So many things were running around his mind but what frustrates him the most was that he had no definite answer.

(Next morning..)

Jiyong have left her apartment at 6 in the morning. He had to get up early for his recording and editing of their new songs. He had to slowly and softly sneak out of her apartment, afraid that he might wake her up if he made too much sound.

Anna slowly opened her eyes as she let out a yawn and stretched herself.. She lift her head and look down to realise she is still wearing the outfit from yesterday. Slowly she started to recall TOP and Shirley, how they kissed. She winced at the thought. Slowly, more and more memories started to fall in, she remembered Jiyong was at her doorstep and they had a long and tight hug as she cried hysterically in his arms. Jiyong.. Jiyong?! Where is he? She turned her head checking the other side of the bed which was empty. He must have went for work.. She let out a sigh and searched for her phone which was at the nightstand. She laid back down on her bed and checked her phone that shows 1 unread message.

Seungri oppa : Are you free today?

Anna: What’s up oppa?

Seungri oppa: Do you want to have dinner with us tonight?

Of course she wants, She needed all her friends now at this moment but the thought of TOP being there, she just can’t handle that right now.. She did not want to risk reliving the scene that she saw yesterday when she see TOP there at dinner .

Anna: Maybe not, thanks though :)

She placed her phone down and shut her eyes. Her eyes feels dry and tired from all the crying yesterday. It took about five minutes before her phone buzzed again. She thought Seungri had already accepted the fact that she’s not going for tonight’s dinner..

Seungri oppa: No.. You are coming, We’ll pick you up at 7 pm..

She saw the time on her phone that reads 2:30 pm.. Wow.. She must be really exhausted last night.. She lazily got up and went straight to the bathroom.. She looked at the mirror at the sink. She was shocked at the view displayed in front of her. She touched her face while looking at the mirror in shock, she looks haggard! Her foundation and blusher were all smudged, probably by the movement of her pillow and cheek rubbing against each other.. Her mascara and eyeliner were nearly gone except for a few leftover traces staining her face along with her dried tears. She looked like a total disaster! She took some makeup remover wipes and started removing her makeup, very slowly and lazily and she walked to the shower to have a long warm bath..

She stood right below the shower head as the warm water washes down from the top of the head. She had her eyes shut while the warm water comforted her. When she came out of the bathroom, the clock reads 4:30 pm. That was one long shower! She plot herself on her dressing table and started putting on a fresh set of makeup.. She needs to get ready. Her eyes are all puffy and sore from the crying marathon she had last night. She needed this new set of makeup on her face as a cover up so her friends would not question her puffy face. She don’t want to look like a disaster again!

After the makeup, she went to her wardrobe and wore a comfortable dress. Not too formal, something sweet and casual. When she was done with her outfit, she took her phone and her black purse that she carried last night, walking out to her living room. She walked over to the kitchen to make herself a glass of water. This is the first glass of water she had today and it’s already 6:30 pm. Damn, the effect that TOP has on her is terrible! She walked over to her sofa and rested a while .. She lazily glance at the time and when it hits 6:55 pm, she would drag her body up and wear her 3 inch stilettos. The doorbell rang and she was just on time. She answered her door and Jiyong came in to view.

“ Wow.. You look .. gorgeous..” He greeted her with a Long sleeved V shirt along with his black pants..

“Thank you…” She mumbled. On normal days, she would blush and smile. But now, her heart was numb on feeling any emotions other than pain and sadness. She closed the door behind her and followed Jiyong as he guided her to his car, parked at the sidewalk..

“ Where’s Seungri oppa?” She remembered that he texted her saying we will fetch you.. But all she saw was Jiyong and not ‘We’..

“ He went to the bistro first..” He buckled his seatbelt while replying her..

Hmm.. So much for the "we'll pick you up"

“ The rest are also waiting for us in the bistro…” He smiled at her, allowing her to know where are the rest before she even have to ask..

The whole trip while Jiyong was driving, she just sat at the passenger seat silently as she played with her ring and absentmindedly gazing out of the window, looking at her reflection and the view outside as the car drove past quickly. Her mind was still filled with TOP’s face and he has not once left her mind since last night, especially after she saw with shirley and him kissing.. It was something difficult to forget..

“ Here we are…” He parked the car and guided her out of the car after a half an hour ride.. It didn’t even felt like half an hour, it felt so fast. She must have been too deep in thoughts for that half an hour to keep track of the time..

He then guided her to the bistro.. She walked in to see all her friends, seated around the rectangular table. Honestly, she didn’t really focus on them. She was afraid that if she looked and scanned more, her eyes will accidentally meet with TOP’s and that was going to be very weird for her.. She sat on the nearest empty seat she could find, followed by Jiyong, sitting down beside her..

“ Hey you guys finally reached! I am starving!” Seungri was the first to greet them..

“ Seungri, you are always hungry..” Taeyang shot back him.. That was when Anna slightly lifted her head up to look at her friends. When she notice that her boyfriend was not at the table, she confidently look up at her friends and glanced around to double confirm that a particular person would not be here with them.

“ Hyung will be here soon,” Daesung saw Anna looking around the restaurant, as if she was looking for someone.. Well, he was not completely wrong, she was looking for TOP , so that she could avoid him..

The tension around finally lifted and Anna was able to smile and laugh at their jokes, but it didn’t last long. TOP strolled into the bistro and sat beside Anna naturally. From the corner of her eyes, she could see someone sitting beside her. It has to be TOP as he was the only one not here and Seungri just confirmed that for her..

“ Finally!” Seungri was probably the happiest and oblivious to the situation. All he could think of now was being able to order and eat now.. He raised his hands up to get the attention of the waitress so she cold come over and take down the orders.

She didn't dare to look at him.. She knew the moment her eyes meet his, her heart will waver. So she decided to slightly face to the other side where Jiyong was, she didn’t want to make it too obvious, but enough so she wouldn’t accidentally look at him.. When the food came.. they ate and chat but Anna was silent all the way.. Just listening to her friends laughing and chatting was comfortable, it was mostly about TOP and Daesung’s experience in Japan. Anna was listening and focusing on her food the entire time but not for long when Seungri decide to change the topic to her..

“ Oh, Anna.. Julie said you came to the airport yesterday, why didn’t you meet us?” Anna eyes widened at the question. Why does he have to ask this question now?!

Damn it Seungri ..

“ I was unwell.. So I left,” she came out with a lie.. She could feel TOP’s strong gaze burning the side of her face and she resisted all the urge and temptation to turn and look at him.

“ Take care of yourself.. See a doctor if you must..”Daesung was getting worried now as she have been falling ill past few days. She would want to see a love doctor if that was possible in order to cure her love sick.

“ You guys up for desserts?” The youngest asked, the others deciding among themselves but Anna rejected right away..

“ I think I’ll head home first.. Thanks for dinner..” she stood up abruptly and excused herself, walking out of the bistro as quickly as possible.. Jiyong was about to get up from his seat but TOP stopped him..

“ I’ll send her home.” TOP stood up and exited the bistro, following her from behind..

Anna was shocked when she felt a jacket draped over her shoulders, she turned her attention to the man beside her. Her heart nearly missed a beat when she saw that it was her boyfriend. She could have guess that it was TOP because of the cologne and the scent that was so strong, emitting out from the jacket. The couple didn’t speak, Anna just walked as fast as she could, hoping to get a taxi at the main road. He frowned when she walked past the carpark entrance.. Where was she going?!

“ Anna!” He called out to her but she just continued her pace, walking towards the main road.. TOP caught up to her and held her wrist..

“ Where are you going?” He asked..

“ Home..” She tried to release the grip from his hand but he didn’t allow..

“ I’ll send you home..” he dragged her towards the car park but she refused to move..

“ It’s okay.. I’ll take a taxi..” She used her other free hand to pry his hand away from her wrist. He let out a sigh and dragged her towards his car, with some of his strength now.. He knows she’s a stubborn girl, it would take him too long to negotiate with her, so pulling her to his car will be a faster alternative.

He opened the door and literally shoved her in. Closing the door afterwards. Anna was stunned. One moment she was walking towards the main road and within seconds, she was in his car. How does he do it?!

“Anna..” he called out to her but she refused to look at him. She had her arms folded, looking outside the window..

“ Anna.. Look at me please..” he held her arm but she shoved him away..

“ Tell me.. Were you there yesterday?” Anna couldn’t help but to turn her attention to him now. The eyes of hurt she held in her eyes, looking defeated. That look in her eyes made him retreated his hand. This is it, the explanation that she has been longing to hear.

“ Yes.. I was there..” she answered honestly, looking at him..

“ Why didn't I see you?” He tried to compose his calmness when his heart was racing inside. What if she saw Shirley and him?! What if she heard their conversation?! What if she saw their kiss?!

“ I was late when i reached…” She continued to let him know the truth.. By her attitude that she is giving him tonight, he could roughly have guessed that she heard and saw everything. So he tried his luck.

“ you saw?” He asked, this time round, it was his turn to feel the sting in his eyes and a pang of guilt in his heart.. He could tell by her reaction when she used her hand to cover , wanting to hide her emotions really bad.. She couldn’t help but felt like she was going to start to bawl her eyes out again but she didn’t want to show it in front of TOP. She had to be strong for herself..

“ Shirley and I..” he wanted to talk but was interrupted by her ..

“ You kissed..” she looked at him in the eyes, her hands away from now.. He was completely stunned. What was he supposed to say now? Deny? No.. because that would be lying. Admit? And then what? Apologise? Will it work?

“ I …” he wanted to speak but was cut off by her again..

“ Look, oppa.. I wasn’t that surprised when she kissed you.. What hurt me was that you didn't push her but instead you kissed her even deeper..” The last few words came out as a whisper as she tried not to cry. She took a deep breath to calm herself down because she knew that if she break down and cry now, it won’t solve the problem and this whole vicious cycle will continue on, causing hurt to those who cared..

He looked down at his lap, feeling speechless.. He didn't know what to say and no words could come out now.. He knew even if he were to say something, it might hurt her even more so he chose to keep silent..

“ Oppa, I think maybe we should stop here..” This was it. She couldn’t control herself any longer. Tears automatically streamed down her face, creating a river like path, as she looked at him.. He looked at her, dazed at what she had just said. He felt a stinging sensation in his eyes as tears were gathered, threatening to flow out of his eyes. To be completely honest, he knew that she was going to end this relationship for all the pain and unhappiness that he had been giving her but he didn't expect it to be so soon..

“ On the day when you were leaving for Japan, Shirley talked to me.. She told me that she really love you and needed you by her side.” She continued on as she wiped the tears with the back of her hand.. Oh, his heart is killing him slowly..

“ P-Please don't cry…” He lifted his hand up, wanting to wipe her tears away, but she smacked his hand away out of instinct and disgust.. She recalled how he had lifted his hand up to wipe away Shirley’s tears at the airport, it made her even more angry and disgusted that he is doing the same to her.

She slipped the ring out of her fourth finger, took one of his hands, and placed the ring in his hand.. She quickly turn and reached for the car door handle to get out of the suffocating car. She closed the door with a slam. The atmosphere in the car was suffocating and at she took a deep breath the moment she got out of the car to ease the ache in her chest. She left him there, in the car, holding on to the ring that she left. He didn't chase after her, he didn’t call her back, he knew she needed to calm down.. He knew that this was a mistake that he had made. He shouldn’t have kiss Shirley. He wanted to rewind back and change the past but it was obviously impossible. All he wanted to do yesterday was to stop Shirley from crying and making a scene. How did things ended up so complicated? He looked down at her ring lying in his palm. It doesn’t have an owner now. Just like how his heart had just lost its owner the moment she left his car.

Is that it? They Broke up?
