Letters [COMPLETED]

Chapter 25 - Wish You Were Here

THIRD PERSON'S POV

Seulgi took time to explore Switzerland with a camera on her hand ready to aim any subject her eyes would lay upon on. She's bored and purposeless. She should have met Tzuyu and discussed Lisa's request but the odds are not favoring her. She's lucky enough she was able to retrieve her luggage.

She just brush off her worried thoughts. She would say sorry to Lisa's grave as soon as she comes back home. She missed it again. She was supposed to meet Tzuyu long before.
She's literally stuck, she couldn't move forward because only Tzuyu knows what was Lisa's plan. She was curious about it too as to why would Lisa ask another person's help when she could just tell it directly to her.

She was overly thirsty while walking around when she saw a nearby fountain. She heard that fountains in Switzerland are mostly clean and drinkable. She went closer to quench her thirst.

While she's enjoying the beauty of the foreign country scenery, a girl in a simple, full black dress stood next to her. Seulgi couldn't look at her due to the embarrassment that she was drinking from the fountain like a commoner. She realized it too late that there is an actual available drinking fountain for tourists like her at the corner of the plaza. The one she drunk from wasn't safe for drinking. She only prayed to God she won't have a diarrhea.

When she recovered from the embarrassment she then raised her head and noticed the girl in a black dress was nowhere to be found. She just shook her head. She was actually intrigued because the perfume was kinda familiar.

"Aish, I should stop embarrassing myself in front of other people especially in a foreign country."

She checked her phone and no message from Seungwan yet. "I guess I am not the priority. Why would I expect anything from her when we're over a long time ago? She already saved me by buying this new phone." She smiled bitterly. And put back her phone inside her back pocket.

She wanted to make use of her time while she's on a vacation, regardless if it was another failed attempt to meet Tzuyu. She promised herself she would just enjoy her stay in Switzerland. She knew after this vacation she would then bury herself with a lot of workload.

4 years later...

Yeri and Joy heard what Irene did at the university dorm which made them concern for their long time friend. Irene grew distant too as she's unfit to work due to her condition. She looked fine and everything but they believe Irene still has not overcome Lisa's death. She would then go back to the dorm during the holidays as if she's one of the students at the university and would cause trouble to other students who are staying at Lisa's former dorm. Every time this happened the head of security would give heads up to Heechul and Irene's mom.

Heechul already surrendered and thought it is pointless to hope Irene can be better when Irene had no plan in moving on. And her mom refused to take the next steps. But Mrs. Bae did not want her daughter to be confined in a mental asylum. She wanted to check alternatives for her only daughter.

Today marks Lisa's 4th Anniversary. Irene almost forgot about the occasion because she still believes that Lisa is alive and hanging out with her. When realization would hit her Irene, would only lock herself inside her room and cry overnight. Her mother could still hear her laugh and talk as if she's with someone. She pities her only daughter but she couldn't do anything about it. Lisa is the only person who can make Irene happy again. But this is something impossible.

On the other side of the world, there's Wendy who also forgot Lisa's death anniversary. She's trying to balance her life with her huge responsibility as a public lawyer and a professor in a university. She rarely communicates with Seulgi. Her phone is buzzing all day and she decides to ignore it.
