Final

Promises are Meant to be Broken

 

“You promised” Tear slid down her left cheek as she watched the only man she loved packing his things inside their own bedroom.

“Well, promises are meant to be broken” His eyes turning dark, glaring at her with the most expressionless eyes she could ever seen in him.

“Don’t leave, please” She plead, her hands wrapping around his wrist in desperation, but he didn’t budge. He harshly pulled his hand away from him, making her lose her balance and fall onto the cold ground

“I’m leaving, and I will never come back” He said coldly and walked out from their house forever.

He left her, despite all the promises he said to her that made her smile. He left; he broke his promises, leaving her crying her heart out in their own bedroom.

“I promise myself to never fall in love”

------------------------------------------------

It has been years since the heartbreak she ecountered, she kept her promise well, she never fell in love with anybody despite males lingering around her, wanting for her attention, but she would always smile warmly at them but never felt anything else more than friendship.

It’s true that heartbroken women became more beautiful and independent, she started to work as a photographer, strolling around places she loves and takes pictures and kept it as her memory.

It was one peaceful morning, just like any other mornings, she would get up from her bed with a soft smile and took a shower. After finding something to wear, she grabbed her camera and walked out from her house. Yes, her house. She moved away from their house, burying all the memories she had in the house and started afresh.

She walked to her favorite coffee shop, where she always orders the same thing every morning. “One small cup of latte with lots of cream please”

She waited for couple of minutes until she finally had her latte in her hand, she roamed around the café but couldn’t find any other seat. She pouted at the sight of someone occupying ‘her’ seat, she always sits there, it’s her one and only favorite place.

It was just a small table in a corner that no one will sit, it was located next to the window, where she can see people passing by, doing their own thing.

But something caught her eyes, a handsome man sat on her seat, with a same camera sitting onto the table as he started cleaning it up carefully with a wipe.

At first people will thought that he was a model, but for a photographer’s eyes, she can see that he’s a photographer, more like a skilled one.

He was irresistibly handsome, girls that noticed him started to flock around him, but he never paid a single attention to them, making them give up and walk back to their own seat.

He then noticed her, he put a smile on his face as he looked at her warmly. She felt a little startled at his sudden actions but was able to return his smile. “There is no seats in here, you can sit here” He smiled, motioning an empty chair in front of him.

She bit her lip in uncertainty, but decided to not be rude and accepted his offer. She awkwardly placed her latte onto the table and looked at him.

“Are you a photographer?” She asked

“Yes, you’re also a photographer as well, so I’m guessing that you could tell that I am?” He smiled

She chuckled “You sure is a skilled one”

“Yes, I have been doing this for over 3 years”

“That’s a long time”

“What about you?”

“2 years”

“That’s not bad either”

“Well, I have to go now. Enjoy your latte and see you around” He smiled and got up from his seat.

She smiled back and nodded, bidding goodbye to him as she watched his retreating back.

She felt impressed by him, this was the first time men actually leave first before her, usually, men will stay glued with her until she gets sick of it and leave the scene.

*He’s very different*

 

The next day, Suzy decided to go to the coffee shop again, she couldn’t sleep all night because of him, he really intrigued her.

She walked inside the shop, the soft bell rang as she opened the door, and she looked around the shop and found him. A smile curved up his lips, she grabbed her latte and approached him.

He was looking out in the window, but felt a presence approaching him, he turned to the side and greeted her with a big smile.

“You’re here again” He said

She nodded and drank her latte “I’m always here”

“Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I’m Myungsoo, Kim Myungsoo”

“I’m Bae Suzy. Nice to meet you”

She didn’t know why, but the sound of his name sounds really familiar to her.

He didn’t know why, but the sound of her name sounds familiar to him.

“Have I met you before?” He tilted his head curiously

“I don’t know, but you seem familiar” She replied

 

“They are my highschool friends, that’s Kim Sunggyu, Kim Myungsoo, Lee Sungyeol, Lee Sungjong…”

 

“She’s my girlfriend, Bae Suzy”

 

“Yes, you seem really familiar, could we be high school classmates?”

“Well, I went from JYP High”

“I went from Woollim High”

“So, that’s not possible either, what about University?”

“Well. I went to Seoul High”

“Wait, I think one of my friends went there.. His name is…”

-------------------------------------------------

Suzy felt that the world stopped right in front of her eyes, it was him, he’s the person who made her and Myungsoo connected. She hasn’t heard about him for years and she never wanted too, but to think that the person that intrigued her is his own friend, she felt angry and sad at the same time

“W-well, how has he been?”

“He’s happy” He replied, sipping onto his coffee calmly

“R-really? That’s good” She chuckled bitterly

He eyed her suspiciously “What is your relationship with him?”

She took a deep breath “I was his ex-girlfriend”

“Oh”

“When did you break up?”

“Couple of years ago”

“Is that why he suddenly ran into my house and lived there without my permission?” He raised an eyebrow

“I guess so, we lost contact and he left our house, so I sold it and kept the other half for him when he comes back”

“I don’t think he will, he passed away”

She felt the world has froze for the second time, couple of years ago, it was one of the happiest times in her life and only one person who made it, but to find out that he passed away before she said her thanks, it was heartbreaking despite him breaking her heart.

Her hands trembled as well as her lips “How?”There was a sound of desperation in her.

“He fell deeply in love with a woman, but turned out that she’s not a very good choice, as his friend, I realized it sooner that him and told him many times, but he will just brushed it off and get angry at me until it turned out into a huge fight, I told him that he could do whatever he wanted, so he did. A month later, he found out that that girl was using him for money and took everything he owned, he was in huge despair, and he got drunk every night and come to my house for refuge, until that day”

“What happened?”

“He got so drunk and stole someone’s car, he speed off in a high speed and crashed onto a lane, flipping the car over and killed him instantly as it landed” He sighed, trying to hold his tears

She couldn’t control herself, she was beyond overwhelmed.

“It’s my entire fault, if I didn’t tell him to do whatever he wanted, he wouldnt end up like this!” His voice cracked in guilt

“It’s not your fault, it’s his nature. At least, he’s happy up there.” She smiled bitterly.

I hope that you’re happy Nam Woohyun

----------------------------------------------------

She couldn’t sleep at all, since she found out the truth behind him, she couldn’t help but to remember all the past she has gone through without him. She couldn’t help but to feel guilty, to say that she has been suffering.

She looked at her alarm clock that was sitting beside her bedside table. 2 am

She sighed and got up from his bed, not able to get a blink of sleep, she decided to grab her coat and take a walk outside.

She walked towards a park, rather an old park, it was one of her favourite place, it was certainly old, but it had a peaceful feeling in it and it was beautiful, she was able to get beautiful pictures out of it.

She walked through the pathways that was leading to a small lake, near the lake, there was a bench sitting in front of a big tree, if she sits on the bench, she is able to get cool shade under the tree and able to see the whole view of the river. She loved that place the most, she walked towards the lake and found a figure sitting on her favourite place.

He seems familiar, until she gets a clear sight of him, she couldn’t help but to chuckle.

She approached him shyly, like that one time, they met in the coffee shop, where he took her favorite spot as well.

“You sure has a habit of taking my favorite spots” She smiled, startling him who was in a daze.

“Oh, this is your favorite spot too? This is also mine” He smiled brightly

He tapped a spot next to him, motioning for her to sit beside him. She did so and smiled, the atmosphere isn’t awkward anymore, although they only met each other 2 times, they felt that they have a strange bond going through each other, and that’s thanks to him

-------------------------------------------------

It has been a few months, whenever she goes, he will always be there, bumping into her or simply took her favorite spots, claiming that it is also his. But that doesn’t change their chemistry, they were drawn into each other, her heart started to flutter, she hasn’t felt such feelings for years. She never wanted them, suddenly, a pang of sadness filled her heart.

What if he leaves me like he did, I will be miserable again

That day on, she tried to keep a distance from him, whenever she goes to the coffee shop, she would avoid that seat she loved, whenever she goes to the old park, she will never go to that side of the lake. She hated it, she hated avoiding people, she felt guilty, but she couldn’t risk herself getting hurt.

It was that normal day, where was called for a job interview, she did her best and calmly answers all the questions the committee gave her, earning their satisfaction. Days later, she got a letter of acceptance.

She sighed, remembering her times when she spends these days chatting with Myungsoo, but she never heard about him anymore. She knew this would happen, she knew, but she didn’t know why, she felt her heart being torn apart, unknowingly cried her heart out.

-----------------------------------------------

He was miserable, he waited for her in the rain in the park, sitting in her favourite spot everyday but no presence ever approached him, he never felt a soft tap he loved on his shoulder, it never came. He waited in the morning in the usual coffee shop, where she would always sits in front of him with a bright smile and latte in hand, she hasn’t seen it.

He finally gave up waiting for her when the news came, her father passed away, meaning he will have to continue his path, as a CEO of his company, he never liked that company, he hated going there, there seem to be nothing to look forward there every day, unlike meeting her.

-------------------------------------------------

It was finally that day, where she will start her new life with her new job, working as a graphic designer in a successful company. Her manager leaded her to her desk, she started to work diligently until she got a call from her office phone, telling her to meet the CEO. She unknowingly felt worried, she thought that she did something wrong on her first day of work, with heavy steps she approached his door. 

Knocking against the door softly and waited for a response, she heard a faint ‘come in’ so she entered with heavy heart but to find her gasping in shock.

There was a man, she wanted to see the most but also doesn’t, he was smiling warmly to her despite on what she did to him, he still had that bright and warm smile he showed whenever she’s with him. She couldn’t help but to smile back, but to find her in his arms.

He was sniffling uncontrollable, saying how much he missed her, every word sounded like a melody in her ears, she couldn’t help but to close her eyes and smile.

“I miss you too”

He pulled away from the hug and looked at her with his deep eyes “Where have you been? You have been avoiding me. Have I done something wrong?”

“I don’t want to fall in love again. I promised myself”

He smiled warmly “I will never leave you, ever.”

She smiled back to him He’s right, promises are meant to be broken

 

 From that day on, they have been in a happy relationship, they would always go to the coffee shop every morning and go to work together, he started to look forward to go to work as he will see her whenever he pass by, same goes to her. On day offs, they would go to the park, hand in hand and sit beside each other and looked at the lake view, they had were happy and they will always will, after he let out the words “Will you marry me?”

She smiled brightly, too brightly to the point that she teared up “Yes” Her voice cracked due to his happiness, but Myungsoo didn’t mind and smiled brightly, taking out the ring he prepared the day when she avoided her and finally placed it in her finger and kissed her under the tree.
