Once A Park : Cry For Love

The Last Straw

" Let's get a divorce, Mr. Park.."

Chanyeol was frozen on the spot that he was standing in front of Baekhyun as he heard those words coming out from him. Divorce? He was in utter shocked that it left him speechless.

Baekhyun is looking at him with a blank expression on his face, his eyes are void of any emotions as he waits for any reaction from Chanyeol but the giant just stood there, shock is evident on his handsome face.

Maybe he is too happy to react. Baekhyun thought bitterly to himself as he puts down the bread in his hand and walks out of the kitchen. He passed beside Chanyeol who still not making any move, somehow Baekhyun wishes that he will stop him as he slowly approaching the kitchen door, his steps are heavy, so is his heart.

Baekhyun opens his eyes in a dark room, he just had another bad dream and his breathing comes heavy. He glanced at the alarm clock besides his bed and it says 10.04 pm. He feels light headed as he stood slowly out of his bed and walks towards the bathroom to wash his face. He then remembered his promise to Min-ah to have a proper dinner tonight. Baekhyun sighed as he don't have any appetite but decided to go downstairs to eat - worried that Min-ah is still waiting for him and it's already past ten 'o clock in the evening.

Baekhyun was almost at the foot of the stairs when he saw Yeri reached for Chanyeol's neck and kissed him. His eyes widen at the scene in front of him. Baekhyun thought that his heart being continuously broken has already reached its maximum limit where he can confidently say that no pain that he can't handle anymore, but nothing prepares him for this kind of pain. It likes reality is the salt that being rubs harshly to the wound in it that never heals and continually bleeds since he got married to Chanyeol. Baekhyun stood there never taking his eyes away from the scene as he listens to his already broken heart shattered more into a million tiny pieces. When Chanyeol returns the kiss - Baekhyun felt that his chest is suddenly hollow, because he can't feel his heart anymore. Maybe the tiny pieces of it turns into a dust and now vanished into the thin air. Chanyeol kissing her back is the final nail in the coffin of whatever hope Baekhyun has for their marriage.

" Baekhyun.." He heard Yeri said his name but Baekhyun can see how fake the concern that laced her voice as he gently pushed herself away from Chanyeol. The small smirks that she gave him didn't missed his eyes despite the dim lighting surrounding the living room. The smirk that says " See? I told you, idiot! "

Chanyeol looks at him with - what is that? Guilt? No. No. It couldn't be. Chanyeol will  never feel guilty for kissing back the love of his life, right? He stares back to Chanyeol with blank eyes, and after a few seconds which feels like eternity for him, Baekhyun forces himself to get away from Chanyeol and Yeri's gazes. He walks to the kitchen absentmindedly while contemplating his instant decision. He had enough of this pain. Had enough of this battle that he will never have the chance of winning. Tonight, Baekhyun finally accepted his defeat. He can't fight anymore, he can't fight for his love for Chanyeol, because Chanyeol never wants his love. He only wants Yeri's. Chanyeol only have his heart for her. It is her that he loves. It is her that he needs. It is her that he wants.

It is Her. Always has. Always will.

Baekhyun heard Chanyeol's phone ringing on his way out, the call snapped back Chanyeol from shock as he answered the call swiftly, it's Yeri.

" Yeri.. " Baekhyun paused as he heard Chanyeol says his sister's name.

" Yeol! One of my tire explode.." Yeri's voice shakes.

" I'm coming to you now. Don't get out of the car. " He instructed her and turned his heels and rushes out of the kitchen to get to Yeri. Chanyeol halted when he sees Baekhyun standing near the staircase, he knew that the smaller heard him.

" Baekhyun.. "

" Go ahead. Be with her, you've been waiting for too long.." Baekhyun turned his back quickly for he didn't want Chanyeol to see the tears that escapes his eyes.

Chanyeol noticed though.
