Taeyeon’s POV

I froze when I heard Tiffany’s voice. Aunt Sooyoung left leaving us  alone.

“Tipp—“

“Tae—“

We both said in sync.  We both fell in an awkward silence. I tried avoiding her eyes just as she was avoiding mine.

“TaeTae” she spoke up

I finally looked at her.

“L-Look, I’m sorry” she looked down to her hands

“N-No, I should be—“

“No. It’s all my fault”

I closed my mouth. I just want her to let it all out before I speak up.

“I’m a bad friend. I ditch you guys for some group of kids I just met. I don’t hang out as much as before and I know I’ve hurt you….all of you” she looks at me with guilt

“A-And I can’t take all of this anymore. I miss hanging out with you guys. I miss sleeping over at your place every Friday night. I miss hearing you guys joke around and laugh not caring even if people started looking at you. I miss sitting with you in the bus. I miss you nagging about me not taking notes. I miss how Hyoyeon would mispronounce words just to make me laugh. I miss how Seohyun scolds me when I eat a burger. I realized I can’t do anything right without you guys beside me”

Tiffany said all of this her eyes b with tears

I didn’t think twice before pulling her into a tight hug. I can feel her hug me even tighter and my shirt was starting to get damp.

“I’m sorry” I said almost in a whisper

I can feel her shake her head ‘no’

“We were a bad friend too. We should have tried to understand you”

She shook her head for the second time

“I miss you too Pany-ah” 

We pulled out and I wiped her tears with my thumbs. She stared at me for a while before I finally saw her eyes turning into crescent. Her eye smile, I missed it.

“S-Sorry for wetting your shirt” she said before wiping it with her hands even though it wouldn’t help drying it

“Aniyo, it’s okay”

After these past few weeks, I was finally able to smile with all those heavy burdens from my heart gone.

“I better talk to Hyoraeng too” Tiffany said

I nod in agreement as I followed her to my and Hyoyeon’s shared room.

“Can you wait outside?” she said

I nod as response. She smiled before giving me a kiss on the cheek. I just felt my heart stopped for a second there. Good thing she didn’t saw my face turned red.

Even though I’m waiting outside, I can perfectly hear them.

“What are you doing?” my sister said

“I just want to apologize” it was now Tippany’s turn

“Apologize?” I can hear Hyoyeon scoff

My sister looks jolly and cheerful in the outside but she’s as sensitive just as she is cheerful. She gets hurt easily and she’ll keep it in until she explodes. And if she does, for sure you’ll end up in a fist fight with her.

“I know I’ve been a jerk and I regret it. I’m just pressured. You should know how exactly I feel since we are all going under the same stage” Tiffany said

“You think we don’t understand? That’s what we’ve been doing Tiffany!” my little sister’s voice got louder

“We don’t mind you hanging out with those kids. But you know what hurts? It’s when you ditch us. It’s when you blow up your promises with us in the last minute” I can hear Hyoyeon’s voice cracking and I’m pretty sure she’s in tears.

Tiffany hasn’t said anything.

“We understand you Tiffany. We understand that you want to hang out with them than us. But would it hurt you to tell us ‘hey guys I’m gonna hang out with the cool kids so see you later’ huh Tiffany?” 

I can hear small sobs.

“I-I’m sorry”

That’s all what I can hear Tiffany say.

“And you know what’s more? I hate seeing my sister down”

Hyoyeon…

“I miss her smiling and laughing with you”

I’ve been selfish…

Without noticing it…

I’ve had hurt my friends

And my sister….

“I would rather feel left out when the two of you are together than seeing you guys distant towards each other”

I can’t help but swallow down my tears.

“Have you even thought of how maknae feels? She’s been doing her best to think of ways to get you guys back together. She’s a smart kid but when she’s down she thinks the most outrageous idea. She even said ‘Unnie, how about we lock them both on the janitor’s closet?’”

Maknae….

I feel so bad. I never wanted for maknae to get affected with our fight.

“Have you guys even thought of her? How she was also affected?”

“I’m s-sorry”

There goes Tiffany again.

“And the fact that I also miss hanging out with you, have you thought of that?”

I can hear the sobs getting louder.

Then silence.

I left and went out to the veranda again.

Tiffany wasn’t the only one being selfish.

I was too…

The sky has turned dark.

I sat on one of the chairs and plugged my earphones in my ears.

I lifted my legs up on the chair. I then hugged them while I stared at the night view.

The city looks beautiful with its bright lights but when you look up, not a star can you see.

I was busy admiring the city and the starless sky that I didn’t realize someone just opened the door.

I felt two hands covering my eyes. And I know her scent too well. I held her hands.

“Pany~”

She takes her hands away and I saw her with swollen eyes

“How did it go?” I asked

“How do you think it went?” I turned my head to the side and saw my sister step inside the veranda

Her eyes were also swollen.

I stood up. The three of us exchanged glances before letting out a smile. The three of us were in tears again. I opened my arms wide and the two of them did the same. We hugged each other like we hadn’t in weeks. I missed this.

We finally pulled out when we heard Aunt Jessica’s voice

“So, finally made up?” she said

We all turned red. I have to admit, it was really dramatic.

“How did you know?” Tiffany asked

“Your mother” Aunt Jessica said

Aish! That giant aunt shikshin of mine couldn’t stop opening .

Well…it is always open since she shoves a lot of food in it almost every other second. Kekeke

Don’t tell her that!

“Why don’t we all go downstairs and eat?” Hyoyeon said

We went down and had dinner. And after those weeks of fighting, we were able to talk like we used too.

Winning her heart?  Can I do it?
