I walked into the airport with music blaring in my ears. ***Flawless by Beyoncé was playing, I would start dancing but I'm not in the mood to. I sighed and headed towards the assigned gate. I looked at the plane ticket in my hand and sighed. "Are you sure you want to leave Delilah?" Jae asked me with a frown and I nodded, "I think it would be for the best." He sighed, "Well I can't stop you, here." Jae placed the plane ticket in my hand, "I'm glad to have gotten the chance to know you." A flashback of last night's dinner flashed in my mind, i immediately shrugged it off, "You too Jae." I looked up and surveyed the lobby, there was barely anyone here, I can understand why though, everyone is most likely asleep since its 6am. I looked out the windows and tried to see anything through the darkness. I walked towards the gate and noticed there was someone standing there waiting, I walked up to them, "You headin' to the states?" I said trying to make small conversation. "No," the person said, I tried to look at their face but they had a hoodie on and the hood was covering most of their face. "Oh, why are you standing here then? Just wondering.." I put my hands up innocently and half smiled. The person raised their head a bit, "Why, why are you going to states?" I was taken a back by the sudden question but the looked at the floor, "I didn't want to hurt people I cared about." The person scoffed, "You really think leaving WON'T hurt them more than staying?" I looked at the person, "W-what?" The person put there hood down and my grew wide, "H-How did you known I would be here?" Kaela pushed the bangs out of her eyes, "I hear you talking to Jae last night. Look, you leaving will hurt them more than you think. It'll hurt me." I didn't know how to reply so i stood therr and let her get what she had to say off her chest, "Why would you leave? Without even telling us? If you did care y-you would've said something. You didn't come to anyone and ask for h-help," I watched as tears filled her eyes, "Look, I hate how I've acted towards y-you, I w-was just jealous, realizing you might leave, I-I felt like it was my fault." I looked her in the eyes, "It wasn't your fault, I just felt like me being here would've made things worse..." I then felt a pain across my cheek, she had slapped me, "YOU'RE THE WHOLE REASON WE'RE HERE. I'VE NEVER BEEN THIS HAPPY, I LOVE BEING AROUND THE BOYS, I-I FEEL LIKE I BELONG." I looked down at the floor why didn't you tell me? But I can't say that either since I didn't tell anyone about how I felt either. "YOU KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN WITH THEY FIND OUT YOU LEFT? SEHUN, XIUMIN, LUHAN, AND BAEKHYUN WILL BE HEART BROKEN. DO YOU REALLY WANT TO SEE THEM LIKE THAT?" She was crying now and every word broke my heart even more "THAT'S WHY I'M LEAVING KAELA, I DON'T WANT THEM TO GET ATTACHED TO ME AND SOMETHING HAPPENS, I LEFT THE STATES BECAUSE I THOUGHT I WOULD BE HAPPY HERE JUST LIKE YOU... and I am but I can't stay here." Kaela looked me dead in the eyes, "Fine then leave. Their pain is on you," She then wiped her eyes and turned around heading towards the airport exit, I watched her walk slowly away then start running while wiping her tears away. I looked back down at the plane ticket and felt my phone buzz. I took it out of my pocket and unlocked my phone, Sehun was calling me,
-"H-Hello?" I said quietly.
- "Hey! Where'd you go? I couldn't find Hana either and Mina didn't know where you guys went also."
- My lips started to quiver and I could feel tears form in my eyes
-"You OK Ahri? Do you need me to come get you?"
-"I-I'm Sorry..." I then started crying after failing trying to hold back the tears.
