You decided to drop by the bakeshop when Kirsten craved for chocolate flavored mooncake.

As you went in, you saw Sehun sitting in a corner table, holding and reading what appears like a letter on his lap. His eyes glistened with tears. His face was very pale and downcast.

Seri told you what happened while watching himslowly dying.

“Sehun oppa,

Do you remember the potted flower you gave me, then I told you that I at taking care anything that breathes? You said that I should make an exception, so I did. Guess what, it now blossomed into a beautiful red rose, very healthy and alive. I will bring it with me wherever I go to keep reminding me that a shyboy, named Sehun, proved me wrong when I thought I could never do it, showed me wrong when I thought I could never love anyone than my parents.

You were always awkward with me. Telling that you have a crush on me and running away was the lamest anyone can do. Yet I was happy coz I know how hard it was for you. It makes me sad that things have to change. I have to go oppa. I never wanted to and it will be hard.

I hope you know how much our time together has meant to me. These past months have been the best time of my life. Nothing is more spectacular when I feel your fingers wrapped in mine and I'm glad we share so many amazing memories together. You made me feel so special, treated me like a princess, and I could not ask for more.

Sehun oppa, please forgive me, okay? I won't be able to sleep at night if you don't. I hope that one day, life will allow me to enjoy a hug or hear you speak at least just once. I will look forward to that day if it does come. I will be thinking of you, and when I do, I won't be sad. I will smile at the memories because I wouldn't give them up for anything.

Goodbye... I love you...

Son Yeonjae

PS: The bracelet is a remembrance that somewhere out there, Son Yeonjae dearly loves you with all her heart. I saved half of my earnings so if you lose it, YOU DIE!!!”

You saw him clutching a bracelet and with every word comes his uncontrollable tears. It's always painful seeing anyone from Exo or BAP cry, much less your brother. It was beyond heartbreaking.

His knuckles shook while gripping the edges and would sometimes wipe his face with the back of his hand.

Sehun was breaking into pieces, crushed and burned. It’s like a pair of hand dug through his chest, squeezing his heart from inside.

When he finished, he covered his face with Yeonjae’s letter, grabbing his hair along with it. The thought of not being able to see her for the last time, ate him alive, and knowing that she loved him like he did, made it worse.

“WAAEEEEE???” he raged.

Everyone in the shop was startled and you ran up to him. “Hey… Hey… Sehun-ah…” you pulled him up and brought him to the kitchen.

Xiumin and Chen went out, being replaced by the maknaes. You pressed his shoulders against the wall, but his knees gradually gave up.

Sehun slowly slipped down until he sat on the floor, both legs stretched out. Tao hugged Seri when she also shed tears from watching her brother in pain.

“N-Noona… W-Why???” he cried.

You kneeled and lifted his head up. “I’m so sorry Sehun… I wish I could make everything easier for you…”

“This is so unfair…” he gasped.

You brushed his hair up, occasionally wiping his tears. “Listen to me okay? Sometimes, when you love someone, you’d have to go through every tear, every heartache, every pain. In the end, it’s not how much you suffered but how you loved.”

"I just don't get why it has to be this way! !!! AARRRGGGHHHH!!!" he growled.

Sehun started hitting his chest and you instantly moved closer and hugged him. “YAH! Stop Sehun! This is exactly why I told you to not give everything, DAMN IT! I hate seeing you this way!”

"OPPA! STOOPPP!!!" Seri shreiked.

He leaned his forehead on your shoulder, letting his tears fall on the floor. “I did what you told me… It still hurts!”

“Aish!” you embraced him tighter and pressed your cheek on the side of his head. “It’s okay… You’ll get through this, Sehun! I know you can!”

Kai also bent down and firmly held his shoulder. “Yes bro… We will be here for you! All of us!”

Zelo joined from the other side, ruffling his hair. “If you and Yeonjae are meant to be, fate will definitely find a way. You don’t even have to make an effort!” he said. “If not, well… there are millions of girls out there who’d be more than willing to be Mrs. Sehun!”

All of you snorted.

“It’s true!” he seriously spoke. “I mean, everyone hits rock bottom, right? If that happens, you’ll just have to be patient and wait for someone to turn everything back around.”

You carefully pulled away and cupped Sehun’s face. “Heard that? This dork…” you side eyed Zelo. “…might be the youngest among all of us but he made sense, you know?!”

Sehun slightly recovered and his sobs mellowed.

You took the bracelet from his hand and gently secured it around his wrist. “Looks great on you, baby brother…”

“Noonaaaaa… Stop calling me that…” he sniffled.

You rolled your eyes and held his face again. “Are you okay?”

“I’ll get by…” he forced a smile.

After heaving a deep breath, you stood and pulled him up. “Hwaiting!” you raised a fist.

Sehun didn’t say anything but his lips curled and also raised a fist. 'I'll wait for you Son Yeonjae...'
