Chapter 14**

**- Last chapter of 'Just Another Love Story' in Luhan's POV + continuation of what happend after.

Chapter 14**

There's a person that once told me that, "Life is fair."

I asked that person, how is life fair for him when clearly life is unfair for everyone?

That person answered, "Life is unfair to me, life is unfair to you, life is unfair to everyone else, therefore, life is fair."

At first I wasn't able to get the meaning of it but in the process, I was able to understand it. Maybe he is right, maybe what he points out is, bad things happen to all of us and that's part of human nature.

It's been almost 6 years now that i've been away from my first love, Sooyoung. She is a superstar now, she is often the cover page of the magazine, she has sold out concerts, and succesful variety shows.

And now she will be married to, Park Chanyeol.

I am on my way to my parent's office in Seoul while I passed on a big billboard that says, 'The marriage of the year', and Sooyoung's picture is in it together with Chanyeol.

How I wish I am the man beside her, but I am not so screw that.

I know that you've all been wondering what have I done for the past 6 years of my life without Sooyoung. Well, i've been very busy with Father's company, which is a graphics company. Most workers are graduates of the course, arts related. I've been managing it and at the same time I am recording a new album as a solo artist in China.

Today I just arrived at Korea because:

1. My dad wants me to check on our brach here in Korea, if they are doing well.
2. My mom wants me to visit my aunt.
3. And lastly, I really am invited to Sooyoung and Chanyeol's wedding.

And I have no idea if I will be able to come. Today is the wedding, but I am still undecided whether to come or not.

If I won't be able to come, I won't miss the wedding because I know that it'll have a live coverage, because as I said it's "the wedding of the year".

SuHo calling***

"Yobeoseyo?" I answered.

"Ya! Where are you?" He asked me in a high-pitched voice. (I really don't know if it's high-pitched or just yelling, i'm still confused when it comes to SuHo.)

"I just arrived from the airport, i'm still on my way." I defensed.

"On your way to where?" He asked.

"My mom's office." I told him.

"But the wedding starts at 3pm, you only have an hour to prepare and you're still undecided." He said.

"You know what, i'll call you back okay?!" I told him and I hung up the phone.

I am outside my dad's office and I am still not going outside the car, I just feel like staring for a moment.

MOM, text message**
"Come inside!"

Wait, she's here?! I thought she stayed in China? How come?!

I went outside the car now and went inside the building. As expected, all of the staffs greeted me because they all know I am dad's son and I've been visiting this brach for several times.

I went inside the elevator and clicked the 12th floor. The elevator was fast so I got up to my mom's office quickly.

I opened the door and I saw her staring outside, I greeted her, "I am here." I said and kissed her on the cheek.

"Hi. Sit down." She said and kissed me back on my cheek.

"I thought you stayed at China?" I asked her while taking a seat.

"I lied and I am sorry. I wanted to come with you here because I know you need my support." She said with a concerned voice.

"Support for what?" I asked her.

"Today's the wedding." She said and I my heart was like pierced with a thousands of nails.

"I know." I said and sighed.

"I know you're not fine. You haven't moved on yet. I know." She says and looked me right into my eyes.

"How do you know?" I asked.

"I am your mom, Luhan." She said and she held my hands tightly. And without knowing, my tears suddenly fell so I looked down.

"Ssshhh, it's okay." She went quickly beside me and hugged me tight, as my tears roll down faster.

"I never knew that it would still hurt like this ma. I know it's been 6 years already, but it still hurts so much." I told her and I kept crying like a baby.

"Is it that painful?" She asked.

"So painful that I could die any day or even right now." I said while crying.

"It's okay, son. Love is made to be that way. Sometimes it makes us happy that we can't stop ourselves from being happy. Sometimes it's painful that you couldn't resist the pain." My mom said and hugged me more tight.

"But how long will this pain last? It's been too long." I asked.

"It will heal before you know it. You just have to wait patiently because it's not easy to forget your first and only love..." She said while having a voice like an angel and backs away from her hug then looks me right into my eyes.

"I can't come to the wedding." I said.

"It's okay not to come, have some time on your own." She said and she stood up.

Without saying a word, I went outside her office and wiped off my tears and went somewhere...

Somewhere I can be alone and think freely.

I am here at the park near our office and I can see that it is almost empty. It's either the people are working, or inside their house, or maybe doing their own stuff.

I sat on the bench and looked at my phone. I have 5 messages and 12 missed calls.

And all of those missed calls are from SuHo.

Messages:

2 from SeHun:
- Hyung, where are you?
- Hyung! We are almost starting.

2 from SuHo:
- Where are you? You're the only one who's not here.
- Kris is here!

1 from Chanyeol:
I was selfish. Please be happy, hyung.
-CY
