#12 Facing Reality

Mina's POV:

I went out from their mansion. The cold wind immediately brushed my face.

I wore a long-sleeved, black turtle-neck top, and pants, but it's not enough to protect me. The wind is cold, but it's better to suffer outside than to feel guilty back in there. It was all my fault, it was me who left.

The door opened but I didn't dare to look back. I know it's him just by his scent and presence.

"Here." he handed me a large paper bag. It's the bag that I chose earlier.

"I can't accept this." I insisted. I can't accept such an expensive thing from him. It's unfair; I left him with nothing but he still gave me everything.

"So, do you want to hold on to your old bag that is already tearing apart?" he asked. I can feel him looking at me but I avoided his gaze.

"Let go and find a new one." he casually suggested like it was easy for me.

"I can't. I'll hold on to it."

"Can't you see your bag is already suffering? Let it rest." he got irritated.

"This bag is special to me. If it's still working, I won't let go." I defended.

"Why are you hoping so much? Can't you see you don't have any chance?!" I looked at him as my eyes became watery. For the longest time, I heard him shouting at me.

"I don't know, do I still have any chance?!" My tears fell from my eyes.

"If it says I will give up then I will." I calmed myself from shaking.

"So tell me, do I still have a chance?" this time, I will give up if he says so.

I hope he won't.

"No. You don't have any chance." he lowered his voice.

He just did.

A tear effortlessly fell from my eye. It really won't stop if I won't hold it back.

"Are you guys still talking about the bag?" unknowingly, the door was already opened revealing Tzuyu. Mingyu was there beside her, keeping quiet.

"Okay, I'll let go. Thank you for this new bag." I immediately wiped my tear and accepted his gift.

"Mingyu, let's go." we both bowed down and went away.

"Mina, are you okay?" Mingyu asked, his tone too concerned.

"I'm fine." I smiled. Mingyu patted my back, which makes me more emotional.

I got home and immediately went to my room. In here, all of my tears poured out.

I grabbed the new bag that he gave me. I opened it and it looks perfect.

What he said was indeed true. I should've just let go from the start. If I won't, he'll suffer. I love him so much that I'll give up my own feelings for his happiness. Whatever he wants, I will do it, even if it will hurt me more.

Just like my old bag, he existed in the past. But the present is different. I might replace him with a new one, but I'll promise to treasure him forever.

Tzuyu's POV:

"You shouldn't have done that." Wonwoo Oppa looked at me, confused.

"What do you mean." he stated.

"You still love her. Deny it multiple times but I know you'll be lying. I'm your sister and I know you very well." I showed him my usual blank face.

He slowly walked closer to me with his fist clenched. His face is full of anger but deep inside, I know, he's hurt.

"Mind your own business." he spatted those words in my face and harshly went inside our mansion, leaving behind my advice.

"Pabo."

"What?" Mingyu asked.

"Nothing." I came back from my senses after I recalled what happened yesterday.

"Yah Kim Mingyu, are you slacking off again?" I raised my tone when he is just staring straight in the wall.

"I'm sorry ma'm."

"What are you even thinking? You've been like this since yesterday."

"Yesterday, it was nothing. But today, I just can't help but to worry about Mina. She's been feeling down after she and Wonwoo-nim talked yesterday evening." I can see how Mingyu is quiet since he came. It's not like him.

"It's not our time to find out what happened yet. Truth will be revealed at the right time." I continued signing the approvals that were given to me.

"Why do you always give wise words?" he asked.

"It just comes naturally." I slightly bragged about it while flipping my hair.

He giggled at my foolishness.

Mingyu went towards the window and sighed.

"Are they still there?" I asked.

"Yes."

"Maybe you should speak. You're not safe. You barely got out from your airlines yesterday."

I thought about what he said and he's right. Maybe I should voice out my rights. I mean, why would I hide if it's not real?

"Let's go." I gave up signing and walked towards the door.

"Where are you going?" Mingyu is clueless but still chased me.

"To face them."
