“Taeyeon!” Donghae’s voice was heard, catching Taeyeon’s attention while she was walking back to her room from somewhere. “I need talk to you.”
“What is it?” Taeyeon asked. “Do we even know each other that well?”
“I’ll get straight to the point. I want you to leave Tiffany.” Donghae stated.
“What? Who are you to say that?”
“You know, Tiffany is a great girl and I don’t want you to hurt her again. Tiffany still has feelings for you and I’m sure you know that but what about you? Do you love her? Do you have confidence that you won’t hurt her again? You might think that you love her now but you’re just feeling guilty about what you’ve done before or maybe you pity her but it’s not love. Once you realize what you have for her is not love, no matter how nice of a person you are, you will only hurt her. So if you even care about her just a little bit, then leave her.” Donghae reasoned while looking seriously straight at Taeyeon.
“And you think you can make her happy?!” Taeyeon rebutted.
“At least, I truly like her.” Donghae replied. “Think about it.” He added then left Taeyeon standing there
“TaeTae ah!” Tiffany called her as she ran over to Taeyeon’s side. “What are you doing here?” She asked.
“Nothing. I was…just looking at the scenery.” Taeyeon stated then smiled at Tiffany.
“Well, Jessica is hungry and Yuri’s taking her to cafeteria to eat dinner. She said we should join them and eat.” Tiffany stated and started to pull Taeyeon’s arm dragging her towards the direction of the cafeteria. “Come on, let’s go.” She said with a smile.
“Okay okay.” Taeyeon replied and followed Tiffany. Am I just doing this because I feel guilty? Or because I pity her? Tiffany ah, do I really deserve your love? Taeyeon thought. Maybe it’s best for me to leave her. I have hurt her enough before and shouldn’t continue to hurt her.

“TaeTae ah,” Tiffany called as she opens the bathroom door to Taeyeon’s and Yuri’s room. “Where is she?” She asked seeing only Yuri in the room.
“Oh, Taeyeon left early today. Don’t ask me why because I would like to know that also.” Yuri replied. “Well, we got to go now or else we’ll be late.” She stated then rushes over to Tiffany’s and Jessica’s room. “Jessica ah, let’s go.” She called.

While everyone had already sat down, Taeyeon came in right before the bell rang.
“TaeTae!” Tiffany called. “Over here,” she added pointing to a seat she has saved for Taeyeon.
Seeing that Tiffany was calling her, Taeyeon showed the expression that she needs to talk to Sunny and thus will be sitting next to her. Tiffany understood what Taeyeon was trying to convey but pout when Taeyeon sat down next to Sunny instead of by her.
After class ends, Taeyeon took her chance and quickly gets out of class before anyone else does. Obviously, she’s trying to avoid Tiffany. And so she continued to avoid Tiffany for the next couple of days.

While wandering around the school campus on a Friday evening to avoid Tiffany, Taeyeon heard some music coming from her pocket. It was Zia’s I’m sorry I love you song, and Taeyeon quickly knew that it was no one other than Tiffany who was calling her. She picks up the phone and answered “Hello, Tiffany?”
“Taeyeon ah, where are you?” Tiffany asked on the phone.
“Uh…I’m the mall with Sunny.” She replied lying about her location.
