CHAPTER SEVEN
SEVEN NOTES OF LOVEPiano didn't know how long has she been staying at the said Countryside. It all felt so long, yet so short.
She was watching how leaves fall from the trees, without her noticing it was once again Autumn. The leaves are falling endlessly as the wind blows, even thought Autumn comes every year and she admire the scene outside that same spot, some thing is quite missing. It was the man who would always clean the area. A picture that's still stuck on Piano's mind, as she remember her first Autumn at the Countryside, where Kyuhyun would always be there, with his broom, getting the area all cleaned up.
Before she knew it Henry, and Kyuhyun already joined her in the table, having the same brewed coffee as her. "Yah, why do you keep looking in that spot?" Henry asked softly. Piano turned to look at Henry. "I'm always here ever since I came to this house. It became a habit of mine to sit in her while admiring the scene outside every morning," she efortlessly told him. She felt that someone was holding her, and she wasn't wrong, it was Kyuhyun who reached for her hand, a warm smiled telling her that it's gonna be fine for today. She also let a smile cross her face, but, it was a less energetic one. 'Maybe the Autumn season's making me feel like this,' she just thought. "Are you okay?" Henry asked, seeing the forming of the tears in her eyes. "Deh," she reasured him, not looking on either mans' face, sice the tears might just fall any second. "I'll go look for Gin," she excused herself.
After she leave and is surely out of earshot, Henry let a sigh escape his lips, Kyuhyun also did the same thing. "Yah, do you know why did she always stays in here?" Henry asked Kyuhyun, but it was silence, there's no response to the latter he was talking to, "I know why, I just wanted to ask her," Henry admitted. "And I also know why is she like that," He continued. But because Kyuhyun isn't responding to his words he looked his he's talking to him-self.
"It was all because of you," Henry bluntly told the latter, even though he isn't responding to the latter's everywords, he's actually paying good attention in listening. 'I already know it, you don't need to remind me that I'm making her suffer like this,' Kyuhyun silently admitted to his-self, he also found about it a long time ago, but there was no use of liking that fact because his life would end anytime sooner. "P...pl...ease, ma...rry h...er(Translation: Please, marry her)," Kyuhyun stuttered, he was now finding it difficult to spoke a single word, since the sickness, took a lot from him. "That would be great, but I can't," Henry told him. "W...hy no...t?(Translation: Why not?)," He asked. "Because he loves you," Henry looked at him, a sad smile cross his face. "Mar...ry h...er(Translation: Marry her)," Kyuhyun repeated his words. 'She can't love me in this condition, maybe we're not just ment to be, I'm satisfied that I experience to love before I die, but I don't like it seeing her to be hurt because of me, I don't regret that I love her, but I regret on letting her fall for me, I was so selfish,' Kyuhyun's tears fell, he can't say those things his sickness is already bloking the way. "Lo...ve h...er, je...ba...l, ma...rry... h...er... An...d b...e ha...ppy. I tr...u...st y...ou. (Translation: Love her, jebal, marry her and be happy. I trust you)," even though it was not that clear, Henry was still able to concieve it's meaning; Kyuhyun wanted the girl he loves the most to be happy without him. So that he can die with ease.
Piano's tears continued to fall, she's hiding at a corner, listening to two's coversation. She doesn'e knew when did she have those feelings for Kyuhyun, but it did surely hurt. Every word is peircing her heart.

Piano sat at the floor beside Kyuhyun, whose on his wheel chair. Both of them are admiring the leaves, as they fall down everytime the wind blows.
