The Last Heartbeat

Talk.

"I think I like Suga."

...

She was supposed to sleep by now. It was 2.47 in the morning. She wasn't sure of what was wrong with her tonight. Was it because she was too exhausted that she wasn't able to sleep? Or because of the short conversation she had with him last night? Or because...

"I think I like him."

"I think I like Suga."

She really didn't want to think about what she just heard. So what if someone likes him? So what if Cara likes him? It's not like he accepts her feelings yet. Wait. So what if he accepts her? What does it has to do with her anyways. There are thousands of girls who had a crush on him. And who knows how many girls in the industry had tried to get close to him. And that was supposed to be none of her business, really.

She just wanted to sleep, but she couldn't do so. She wanted to blame someone for how not calm she was feeling tonight. She wanted to scream right on anyone's face and get over it. She wanted to punch someone, and release all the burden she kept inside. She wanted to...

She just wanted to cry.

Cara still hadn't sleep yet. She just checking out some blogs and news portals. She loves reading and always felt the needs of keeping herself updated with current issues. Not too much, but it should be enough as long as she acknowledged things that happened around her.

She took her face off her phone. She turned to her side, where Alex's bed was located.

'Is she....'

She tried to listen to the sound once again. She was afraid if she was wrong. But, she was more afraid if she was right. She felt guilty if it was because of her.

She heard it once again.

'Oh, god!'

She moved to sit on Alex's bed.

"Alex. Hey." She held Alex's shoulder.

"Alex."

"What is it?" Alex still hadn't moving to face her.

"You're crying."

"No, I'm not."

"Yes, you are."

"You were dreaming. Go back to sleep."

"I haven't even sleep yet, Alex. Fine, if you're not crying, I want you to get up now and look at my face." She took her hands of Alex. That girl just froze in her position.

"I'm waiting."

Alex got up, wiped her face,and braid her hair before turned to face Cara who was staring at her into her eyes.

'Swollen eyes. I'm dead.' Cara thought to herself.

"Why on earth are you crying?" She was about to get mad, but she felt guilty, yet a part of her just wanted to laugh. Why would this tough girl cried?

"Nothing."

"Of course. You got your eyes swollen from crying for...nothing? Should I laugh or shouldn't I?" Sarcastically pointing out her question.

"I'm just exhausted because of the packed schedules. Training, awards rehearsal, variety shows, and I miss my family..."

"And with me having a crush on Suga. Am I right or am I right?"

Silence. Alex was surprised but she tried to stay calm.

"I don't know what...."

"I don't." She didn't let Alex finished her words.
