AUTHOR POV

Taemin was walking to their dorm while crying silently. He kept on thinking why Shin Ae became like that. It’s really impossible for her to know what happened between him and Sulli. That’s why he is so confident that she can’t figure it out. It was a big mistake he did for his whole life. He can’t think anymore reason. Only Sulli and Taemin knew what happened between them. But suddenly, he remembered Kai. But Taemin didn’t mind suspecting him since he didn’t even met Shin Ae in person.

TAEMIN POV

I was walking like a dead person on the streets. i want to cry out loud but it seems like I already consumed all my tears. I opened the door and I saw Key hyung, min ho hyung, onew hyung and Jong hyun hyung having a happy chitchat at the living room.

SHINEE POV

Key : taemin? *stood up and cupped taemin’s face worriedly* why? Are you ok baby? Did you cry? What happened?

Taemin : hyung… *looked at Key with a teary eyes.*

BUT WHEN TAEMIN MET KEY’S EYES, HE IMMEDIATELY HUGGED KEY AND  STARTED TO SOBBED.

Key : *worried* tae.. taemin.. wae? what happened?

THE FOUR STOOD UP AND WENT CLOSER TO KEY AND TAEMIN. THEY ARE SO WORRIED. ONEW PATTED TAEMIN’S BACK.

Taemin : *sobbing* hyung… hyung… i… i… I’m… I’m sorry. I’m sorry. *he repeated it many times*

Key : *pulled back on taemin’s hug so that he can meet taemin’s hug* why? Taemin speak..

Taemin : I’m.. I’m a fool.. I’m …. I’m so stupid…. *he said in between sobs*

Onew : why are you saying that? yah, you went out here with a happy face but you came back here like that? where is Shin Ae?

Taemin : she’s…. she’s… she’s with Hong Gi hyung…. *sobbed hardly*

Key : *almost shouted* mwo?! Why is she with him?! tell me taemin, what really happened? Tell me!!!!!! *shaked taemin’s shoulder*

Jong hyun : key key… *holds Key’s shoulder to calm him.*

Key : did…. Did… *can’t continue what he want to say.*

Taemin : we broke up already.. she broke up with me! *cried*

Onew : what?!

SHIN AE POV

I sat at my couch lifelessly. I felt so weak. Is this what pregnant felt? I hate it! I felt like I’m so useless. I’m so weak.. I think I can’t do anything! I want to cry. Why didn’t I slap his face? I really hate him. he cheated me. I trusted him but he wasted it. I can’t think anymore. I’m stress. But I need to be strong for my baby. I hold my forehead and looked up just to rest my head on the back of the couch. I closed my eyes and trying to calm myself. “here, drink water.” Hong Gi oppa sent me a glass of water. “thanks oppa..” I took the glass of water and drink it. “are you ok? don’t you feel anything?” he asked me worriedly. “ne oppa, I’m fine.” I faked a smile and rest again. “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t at the first place.” He bowed. “no oppa, you just told him the truth. You really slept here right?” he chuckled. “so… what now? you broke up with him. what’s your plan? How about the baby in you?” he asked me looking at my tummy. “I’ll raise this alone oppa. I’ll keep it on my own.” I said while rubbing my tummy. “you can’t raise that alone.” He said while looking at me with a worried looks. “oppa, don’t worry. I still have my mom. She’ll help me.” I smiled just to assure him I’m fine. “where is your mother?’ he asked me again. “she’s at Gwangju oppa. I’ll just stay with her.” I answered. “she’ll probably kill me if she knew I’m pregnant without a husband.” I added. Hong Gi oppa just remained silent. I decided to stood up and grabbed my phone to call my mom but I was stopped when he said something. “Let me introduce myself as the father of your baby.” He said without even looking at me. “eh?” I was shocked.

IT’S ALREADY EVENING AT SEOUL. SHINEE WAS SO SILENT. THEY PITY TAEMIN AND STARTED HATING SHIN AE. EXCEPT FOR KEY OF COURSE. TAEMIN WAS SPACING WHILE ONEW WAS EATING CHICKEN ALONE AT THE KITCHEN, JONG HYUN AND MIN HO ARE PLAYING ONLINE GAMES.

Key : taemin, you know, it’s not that I am on Shin Ae’s side but, I know Shin Ae loves you that much. I just want to ask you if you did something wrong that Shin Ae almost chose to broke up with you.

Taemin : …………………

Onew : yah key, are you blaming our maknae?

Key : no.

Jong hyun : then why are you asking that kind of question to him? it’s not because you love her, you can put all your trust on her.

Key : yes I do love her.So what? as what I have said, I’m not taking any sides. I just want to be fair. We didn’t know why Shin Ae did that to our maknae. Dump him like that. we need also to hear her side.

Min ho : hyung is right. We can’t just judge her.

Onew : even we knew her reason, we can’t deny the fact that she broke Taemin’s heart.

Key : now answer me Taemin, are you really innocent about this case?

Min ho : whoa, you sounds like a detective key.

Key : shut the up min ho. *glared him*

Taemin : hyung… I made a mistake. A mistake that can change our relationship. I know I was wrong. I was.. was not in the right mind when I did that. but, but I swear, no one knew about this except me and sulli. And….. Kai…
