People always said he was cold person. But for her, he was the sweetest person she’d ever met. He was caring, funny in his way.

They said they never saw him smiling, the sincere, the warm one. But for her, everyday she saw him smiling from his heart. White teeth and eye smile could be shown if he smile. That was addictive for her. She love, really love to saw him smile.

                                                                                              ---

Their first meeting was when Krystal just moved to her new apartment. She decide to live alone not because she didn't get along with her parents, she just wanted to be independent beside it was nearer to her university. This apartment was quite big. There was two rooms beside one bathroom. Well might be she could make one of her friends live with her.

Krystal just realized that she should change a bulb lamp. Tried to change by herself but failed because even she climbed on the table she couldn’t reach it. Didn’t want wait her place become dark she thought and decide to asked help from her neigbor. Yeah, Being a new  occupant here, it would be good if she greet and introduced herself to new neighbor.

Krystal walked to her bedroom and searching a loose T-shirt and short. Well, we should gave a good impression on first time right? Looked at the mirror and satisfied with her appearance, she stepped out from her apartment. She lived at second floor and there was only three rooms and she was on the corner. So Krystal decided to went to an apartment next to her.

Pressed the bell once, twice, until the fifth, no one came out from the apartment. She wonder if the owner was out. Turned around her heel and she was about to leave then heard a 'click' sound. There, in front of her, standing a boy. Messy light brown hair, v-neck white T-shirt and ripped blue jeans. He pressed his lip into a line and those sharp black eyes glaring at her.

It was him. Kris Wu.

                                                                                                ---

Krystal was walking back to her apartment when recognize someone sat on the swing in the park near her place. The person no other than Kris, her neighbor. Kris lived with his two friends, Luhan and Lay. Between the three, Kris, Luhan and Lay, Kris was the most cold and hard to approach. She didn't knew but felt like he kept a distance with new people include her but actually wasn't like that because she believe when Luhan said Kris kind and warm. Once Lay said that Kris was a funny person. She wondered what jokes he usually told.

Krystal often visited their apartment for only maybe dinner together or asked for their help because she lived alone somehow she felt lonely. And they never mind with Krystal visited. Luhan was the bright one between them, he had a bubbly personality, loves to laugh and had many facial expression. Lay was fun, super kind, a little bit quite than Luhan but he knew how to make a good atmosphere with his jokes. And Kris, the tallest among them, and
the most handsome for Krystal. He was mysterious and cold but when she looked at a picture in their living room, she knew Kris was a kind and lovable too. It was a picture of them and they happily laugh there. It was a common thing to see Luhan and Lay laugh, but what caught her attention was Kris. He laughed freely, happily like a Kid who got his favorite gift. She just loved to see it.

With a white plastic on her right hand, Krystal approaching him. On tip toe she walked slowly behind him. There was some people there so Kris didn't recognize someone walked to him.

"BOO!" Krystal surprised him and sat on the swing beside him, she didn't aware with Kris glaring. "What are you doing here?" she asked cheerfully and sat on a swing beside him.

Kris didn’t reply and looked at front. Krystal didn’t mind he didn’t reply. For some minutes they were busy with their own thought. Cocked her head on side she saw his face. A sad could be seen from his eyes. Wondering what he thinking but she decide to not asking.

Stood up from a swing Krystal stand in front of him and searching something in her plastic bag. She put something on his hand. Popsicle.

“It gonna make you feel better. Trust me.” She excitedly said. “I think I’ll go now. Annyeong!” Krystal ran leave him alone.

Kris stared on a popsicle in his hand. A strawberry flavour. Looked at the direction where Krystal ran but she already couldn’t be seen. Stared back again to a popsicle and a small smile shown up from his lips.

                                                                                                      ---

They were getting closer each day. To be honest Kris enjoyed having Krystal as company. He didn't mind her presence at the apartment almost everyday. Sometimes she cooked with Lay or singing while Lay played guitar. Yes, her voice was so good. He liked to hear that though he didn't join them and only heard from his room. It could make him smiled.

Might be because her bright personality then for no reason he comfortable with her around him. He wasn't a person who easily close with someone new. And Kris knew it made a distance between him and people even with his own family except for his best friend.

Kris didn't mind when Krystal came in the morning and woke him up or when she laughed hysterically and clapped her hand while they watched some comedy movies. She loved to laugh and somehow it influences him. When she laugh then he would laugh or only smile.

Until one day when they were in her place, in a rainy afternoon she confessed to him.

"I like you." she said bluntly and forced him to look at her. Kris found her smile confidently, no sign of shy girl. She was a friendly type and nice to all who she knew thats why he didn't expect her to like him but he was happy because after all he had a same feeling for her.

"What?" Kris asked when saw her smiled happily. Was it because they were together?

"Nothing. As long as you smile. I am happy. It is my new favorite."

                                                                                               ---

It was raining when Krystal walked to balcony to enjoying the view and weather. She loves rain. Trees and street were wet because of rain. Two students ran with both of their hands covered head. Suddenly remembered her mother who always scold her when found her wet because of rain. Krystal sometimes didn't use her umbrella and let her body wet.

Krystal grip her white cardigan tighten and closed her eyes.

"Are you cold?" Kris asked as he walked out to a balcony and stood beside her. Tucked both of hands on his black jeans pockets he watched her who finally opening her eyes. Krystal nodded without looking at him.

"Want to go in?" he asked and came closer to her. Kris tucked her hair which blew by wind behind her ear.

"No." Krystal smiled. "You know I love rain. I want to go down but I know you won't let me." she cocked her head to a side.

Kris went behind her and put his hands around her waist. Then Krystal rested her head on his chest. "You love it more than me?"

"Of course. I know it a long time before I met you."

"Ouch. I'm hurt." Kris jokingly said. Krystal laughed and put her hands on him. Her eyes kept looking in to a dead street in front of her. She didn't mind if time walked slower.

"What?" Kris asked when Krystal looked up to him. He found her bright eyes and lovely smile.

"I am happy because I'm with my favorites now. You and rain."

And he smiled.

                                                                                                       ---

Krystal opened her door and there was Kris standing with head down. Once he up his face Krystal spotted his swollen eyes. Was he been crying? He biting his lip and stared at her. A sadness shown from his eyes and it made her worried. Suddenly Kris lean her head down on her left shoulder. She felt her pajamas wet because of his tears. No one spoke in a silence and Krystal only patted his back.

They were sitting on a couch. Kris was no longer cry but no one of them start to speak. Krystal watched him and wait until he ready to told her what actually happen. She didn't want to forced him even she was hell curious.

"She choose him and throw me away." Krystal already knew what it was about. Kris looked down at his finger. "She said she love him more than me. I suppose to know it but when I heard with my own ears.. It's hurt." he paused before continue. "She never love me at the first place. She don't care about me." his voice wasn't stabile, he tried to not cry again.

Kris was tell about his own mother. Actually Kris grown up with his grand parents, his mother left him with her parents. His father was passed away before he born. Three years ago when he accepted in a university it was his first time to see his own mother. Honestly he disappointed because she leave him but it hurt him more when she said hate to see him because he reminded her with her late husband. Was it her reason? He didn't understand for a God's sake he was her son.

And today Kris just met her at his grand parent's house. She told them that she'll married again. Kris was hurt because she didn't ask him. He was mad so he asked her if had she once thought and care about him. Kris asked who would she choose between him and her to-be-husband. Kris knew her answer before she said yet it still hurt him.

"You have me." Krystal clasped her hand on his face, brought him to see her. "You have Luhan, Lay and your grandparents. You're not alone, Kris. Don't cry, please. I hate to see it."

"You won't leave me?" there was a beg in his voice. Krystal knew he felt insecure.

"I won't. I'm promise." she smiled to assured him. "Where is my handsome boyfriend? I only see a crybaby ugly giant boy." Kris couldn't help but laughed when heard it.

Krystal promised herself would do anything to keep that smile on his face.

                                                                                                ---

Krystal watched Kris who was busy with his MacBook in front of her. One her hand supported her chin on white table. They were at a cafe near their apartment. Usually Lay and Luhan would join with them but not today because they had another business.

Kris seemed not recognize her pouted. It was normal when they dated or hung out then a lot of pair eyes admiring him. Staring at him, talked about him that sometimes she could hear. She used to it but today she just realized again that her boyfriend was extremely handsome when she caught a girl took his picture and giggling after that.

"You should be banned to go outside. Just stay at home." Krystal voice successfully made Kris leave his sight from his MacBook. Kris raised his brows. "Can you stop being so good looking? Aigoo. Maybe I should have a boyfriend who uglier than me so I won't be annoyed by fangirls over him."

Kris laughed and shook his head. "Silly." he commented. Looked him laughed was a cherish for her. Sometimes she wanted to be selfish to keep that smile only for her.

                                                                                                  ---

Kris and Luhan walked together from their campus. It was almost midnight. Because of their task, it kept them until this late. Climbed stairs slowly then they passed Krystal's door. Kris thought she must be already sleep.

Searched a key on his pocket, he shivered because of an autumn wind. Luhan stood beside him seemed impatiently want to go in. Once they stepped in the apartment was dark, might be because Lay didn't home and sleep over at his friend's.

Kris's eyes widened as he passed a living room. There was Krystal sat on a wooden chair with some candles on a table. He surely jumped a little because Krystal lil bit scared him. For once he thought she was a ghost. A sound of guitar realized him that Lay was there beside Krystal. Krystal smiled and began to sang.

From this moment life has begun
From this moment you are the one
Right beside you is where I belong
From this moment on
 
From this moment I have been blessed
I live only for your happiness
And for your love I'd give my last breath
From this moment on
 
I give my hand to you with all my heart
Can't wait to live my life with you, can't wait to start
You and I will never be apart
My dreams came true because of you
 
From this moment as long as I live
I will love you, I promise you this
There is nothing I wouldn't give
From this moment on
 
You're the reason I believe in love
And you're the answer to my prayers from up above
All we need is just the two of us
My dreams came true because of you
 
From this moment as long as I live
I will love you, I promise you this
There is nothing I wouldn't give
From this moment
I will love you as long as I live
From this moment on

Kris watched as Krystal stood up and slowly walked to him. A beautiful smile plastered on her face yet she was really beautiful even in her jeans and plain t-shirt. Luhan appeared from his back with a cake on his hand.

Krystal stepped closer and kiss his right cheek. "Happy Birthday."

And a smile plastered on his face.

                                                                        ---

Today was raining. Kris sat on the floor with knees up and both of hands on his head. A sound of raining could be hear clearly. He hated it. Because it reminded him of Krystal.

Because of Krystal, Kris loved rain too. Because of Krystal's happy face every time rain poured, he could smile. And now in the raining, she was the one who took it from him. His smile.

Krystal. The one he loved. broke her promise.

                                                                                                     ---

Luhan knocked Kris's room. He had been worried with Kris condition in last some weeks. Kris never leave his room except for go to bathroom or campus. They rarely talked to each other now. He and Lay missed Kris's old self.

Waiting for his reply but nothing, Luhan tried to open the door and it unlocked. Luhan stared to Kris's room. It really such a mess. From a scent of his room Luhan knew Kris had been smoking. Cans of beer could be seen everywhere in the room. Luhan spotted Kris slept in the bed.

"Kris." Luhan called him as he walked closer to the bed. "You okay?" A frame in the floor caught Luhan attention. He took it and already knew it was a picture of Kris and Krystal. Luhan put it on a drawer beside his bed.

Luhan knew Kris was pretending to sleep. He knew Kris lately avoid to talked with him or Lay. Need a time. Luhan understood it but he couldn't bear it after some weeks.

"Kris, wake up. Breakfast ready. You've lost some weight. I can see it." Took a deep sighed when Luhan saw Kris still closing his eyes and didn't move a lil bit. "Kris, do you think Krys –"

"Don't talk about her." Kris cut Luhan off. "Get out from my room." he said before covered his face with pillow.

                                                                                                ---

It was not only him who hurt. She was hurt as well. She couldn't keep her promise to do anything for keep he smiling. She was the one who hurt him. She was the one who took that beautiful smile from his face. And yet she couldn't do anything now. Just crying in the corner of this room.

                                                                                                  ---

He ended up sitting on a bar. Alone. He wasn't type who enjoyed that loud place but after Krystal leave he often came to that place. Getting drunk was a best way to forget what was the reality. The reality that he lost Krystal. Forever.

                                                                                                   ---

Krystal stood on her favorite spot between the kitchen and living room. Glanced to the clock, it was already 1 am and Kris wasn't home. She knew he must be at the bar. A worried face appeared on her face. She looked at the person who sitting on the sofa in front of her, Luhan.

Luhan sat on the sofa with crossing his arm. He stared on the TV but it was turn off. Only sound of ticking clock accompany them. Krystal knew he was waiting for Kris and worried as well as her.

After fifteen minutes they heard click sound from the door. Kris walked in with staggering steps. With black jacket on his hand, Kris passed the living room, he saw Luhan there but choose to ignored him.

"Are you happy now?" Luhan voice stopped his step but he didn't turn around. Then he heard Luhan stood up and approaced him from behind. "Do you thing Krystal will happy seeing you like this?"

"Shut up." Kris said. His voice sounded firm.

"You're such a coward, Kris."

"Shut your ing mouth up!" Kris shouted and turned around, he looked so angry. Luhan couldn't help but surprised. And it succeed to make Lay opened his door to see what happened.

"Hyung ..." Lay called them. But they didn't bother to looked at Lay.

"Are you going to continue your life like this?" Luhan continue.

"It's none of your business." Kris snapped.

"It is. You're my friend. No, my brother, Kris. I understand your situation, Kris. But your live  is not over. Are you going to continue your life like this?" Luhan said calmly.

"You're not understand!" Kris snapped. "You said you'd understand. How can? Have you lost someone that you love like me? NO! Have you ever feel how hurt when someone broke their promise and leave you? NO!” Kris’s face was red it sign he was angry.

“No one of you have feel what I feel. You don't understand about my feeling! Step back from my life!" Kris shouted and pushed Luhan back. He was really .. really angry.

"You asked me have I lost someone that I love? I did! I already lost you, Kris. These, the man in front of me isn't you. Kris that I know isn't like this! Kris that I know isn't a coward. He is warm. He is care. He is a good friend and brother. I've hurt as much as you, Kris. If you said you lost Krystal then I lost you. I can't stand seeing you like this. I want Kris back. Don't you see me? Lay? We're care about you. You're not alone. You have us. You know we love you. And you aren't lost all of people who care about you. Please Kris, don't be like this, please." Luhan begged and released his grip on Kris collar shirt. Kris could sense a hurt in Luhan voice. He never realized what he did make his friends hurt. Yes, he thought he was the most selfish person.

Kris dropped on his knees. He was crying. His body was shaking. Lay walked to them, he joined with Kris on the floor while Luhan still standing looked down at the two of his best friends.

"Hyung." Lay called and tapped his back.

"It's hurt. It still hurt." Kris voice was cracking. "She leave me. But she'd promise won’t leave me. I was about to propose her when we graduated. But it won't happen." Kris looked up to Lay. Lay couldn't help but feel hurt as well. He already cried. Lay couldn't speak so he just continued patted Kris's back.

Finally Luhan joined with them on the floor. He looked at them who were crying.  His eyes filled with tears but he could hold him self to not crying.

"You're wrong, Kris." Luhan began to speak. "Krystal. She never want to leave you. She keeps her promise. Do you think this is what she want? Be grateful she was yours. She was yours, Kris, until the last of her breath."

"Hyung, promise us. Don't hurt yourself again. We're here and we love you." Lay spoke with his soft voice. He hugged Kris who still sobbing hard. Then Luhan hugged both of them.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry." Kris said between his sob.

In the corner of the room, Krystal who watched all of it couldn't help but crying. She clasped . Her heart sank  into a million pieces. Saw the one she loved hurt made her hurt more. Moreover when she knew Kris was mad, disappointed with his thought that she leave him. It was hurt to knew him didn't trust her, didn't trust their promises. She didn't want to leave him. But she glad now because there, his two best friends always beside him.

                                                                                                                ---

The room was dark. The light was off. But she still could see his face who slept with a frame on his hand. Their picture. A dry tears could be see on his handsome face. A face that she couldn't touch again. Walked slowly to him, she sat on the edge of the bed.

"I'm sorry."

                                                                                                                ---

Today was different, Kris woke up and he was ... Cooking? Krystal saw him on the kitchen, opened a fridge searching for some ingredients. Oh, he was making omelet and pancake! Hmm she could smell it and seemed like delicious. He made for three person, of course the two were for Lay and Luhan. After the breakfast ready, he walked to their room, Lay first. Knocked a door didn't need a long time to made Lay opened the door. Lay wore a white sleeveless and she could tell from his face actually he kinda annoyed with Kris who forced him to woke up.

"Breakfast." Kris said with a small smile. He was smile! Krystal bet Lay wasn't aware of it because of his sleepiness but she swore see it. Her heart lighten up. She hope it kept good today.

Kris moved to Luhan's room. Without knocked he stepped in to Luhan's room. Luhan wasn't type who could easily woke up. Krystal couldn't see what was he doing to made Luhan get up from his bed because she still standing up in the corner of the kitchen.

Lay walked to the dinning table after washed his face Krystal guess, well his face still wet. He looked at the table, omelet, pancake and sausage were served. Lay couldn't help but smile. A relief, a big, a happy smile. She knew he was happy and she either, Lay.

Not long after that, Kris joined with him and then Luhan with his wet face. Luhan's eyer grew bigger when saw Kris and Lay and food.

"You cooked?" Luhan asked while pulled out his chair. Kris answered with nodding his head. And again, she saw the bestfriend smile.

They talked about many things and joking too. Kris talked more today. She almost couldn't believe when heard him laugh after Luhan told his joke. He, Kris, Krystal sweetest prince finally laughed. The two of bestfriend looked surprise too.

After breakfast and took a bath, Kris wore white shirt, black jeans and black jacket, seemed he wanna went out. And right, he told Lay who laying lazily at couch that he would go out. Krystal wonder, where will he go?

Followed him walked outside the building, he walked to the bus stop. Krystal walked beside him and of course he won't saw her. She didn't paid attention which route was the bus. A seat second from back in left side always be his choose and she knew it. Krystal sat beside him. He seemed busying his mind with looked at the view. She couldn't but admired what she saw now. His left side. His handsome face. Pointed nose, thin lips with beautiful eyes and fair skin. Krystal would touch his face. If only I could.

Still no clue where was his destination, Krystal looked at him when saw he reached his pocket and took out his iPod. Stared a while to the white iPod and it then he put the headset to both of his ears. Peek at what song that he played, her eyes widened. He listened to it. My Everything. Song that she sang for him and recorded it. Her heart broke once again when she saw his eyes filled with tears. Oh no, please no more tears.

Once we stepped out from the bus finally she knew his destination. Krystal decided to walked behind him. His back that she would never hug again. He walked slowly and put both of his hands on his pocket. Finally he reached to his destination. He standing in front of it.

Her grave.

"Hi, how are you Krystal?" he began to speak. Krystal could feel he smile even she couldn't see because she was standing behind him.

"If you asked me back. What should I said. It will be a lie of I say that I'm okay." he paused and took a deep breath. "Are you happy there? Do you .. Do you miss me?"

Yes, Kris, I miss you so much.

"It's really hard for me. To coming here. To see you. Because you know deep inside my heart I can't accept that you leave me. You were gone." he stiffened in his position. Kris wasn’t talk anything for some minutes. There was a silence, only sound of leaf friction could be hear. Took a deep sigh, Kris then biting his bottom lip while looking at her gravestone. A memories of they togehter flashed on his mind. He missed her so bad.

"Krystal, I miss you." his voice began to cracked.

Please Kris, I didn't want to see you cry. Again.

"I miss your strawberry scent hair, your pale skin. I miss to see your pout, your smile. I miss your vanilla scent. I miss your cheek. I miss your hug, your soft lips on mine. I miss everything about you."

Kris fell on his knees. He couldn’t help it. He tried the best to held back his tears but he couldn’t. The memories about them were so beautiful yet painful.

Krystal clasped with her hands. Even though he wouldn't hear. She was here, watched him crying. Krystal could feel like was dying again. She almost ran to him and want to comfort him.

"Everyday when I woke up, I hope that I'm just dreaming. I hope you'll come to my place, having breakfast with me, Lay and Luhan. Or at night I'll your hair until you fall asleep.”

“I feel empty inside without you around me. I'm dying inside. I'll do anything to bring you back but I know I can't." His voice sounded so desperate.

Krystal couldn't watch him like that. She wanted to ran and hugged him. Hugged his shaking body.

"I was mad at you. Mad as hell. I thought you left me. It thought you'd broke your promise that you won’t leave me."

No, Kris no. I could choose, I didn't want to leave you.

"Sometimes it wasn't fair for me. Everyday I should deal with a reality that you're gone. Every time I should accept I can’t see you anymore. I always thought you never feel what I feel now. Everyday I’m hurt and you’re not. Everyday I try to hold back my tears and you’re not.”

There was a long paused. Kris wiped his tears with both his hands. His eyes were red and swollen and so did his nose. He tried to calm himself by taking a long breath.

"But then Luhan told me last night. That you didn't have a choice. He told me that .. That you never leave me. You were .. Were mine until your last .. Breath. You never want to leave me but .. It was destiny who made you leave me. I should try to accept it even it’s painful.”

Kris seemed search something on his jacket pocket. It was a red small box. Then he put that box on a grass.

“It is a ring. I was about to give to you, but I couldn’t. It was belong to you. So I am here give to you as a last gift for you.”

Krystal was crying looked at the red box which contain of rings. She was happy Kris still gave it to her and it hurt her because he gave when she was no longer in this world.

“I think it’s time for me to let you go. I’ll never forget you because I can’t. I know your wish, I know you want me to smile. You really love it right? This time let me promise you something. I’ll life better and this – this smile will appear on my face from now on.”

Kris smiled. A big and warm one. A smile that Krystal really loved. A smile that lately gone from his face. She glad to saw it. To saw that smile for the last time.

“Thank you, Krystal. Thank you for came to my life even for a short time. Thank you for gave a cherish in my life. Thank you for gave me hope to believe and love again after what happened to me. Thank you for being by my side until your last breath. Thank you for loving me. Thank you for make me smile.” Kris sounded calm. He stood up and stare to her grave.

“Thank you, Krystal. Goodbye.” He looked once more and smile lovingly before leave her grave. Leave Krystal there. Krystal didn’t follow him anymore. It was they final separation. Krystal believed him that he would life better.

“Goodbye, Kris.”
