10- Stupid

I walked downstairs to the kitchen and I clutched my chest.

"Even after so long, it hurts." I hung my head low and clenched my jaw in attempt to stop tears that might flow down.

I can't cry, not when Tiffany is here.

"What hurts?" I felt a hand on my shoulder and I jump in shock.

"YAH! DON'T SCARE ME LIKE THAT." I yell at her but she seems emotionless.

"Ok whatever. What's for lunch?" She grabbed my hand and dragged me to the fridge.

She opens the fridge and expects to see loads of food in this big house.

"NO FOOD?!" She shouts in disbelief before turning to me.

"What do you expect if no one has stepped foot in here after like years?" I raise my eye brow and she groans in frustration.

"Yah. What will we eat then?" She sits on a chair and rubs her flat stomach.

"Well we can go grocery shopping after lunch. So we can eat out." I shrug my shoulders and she bolts out the kitchen and up the stairs.

"I WILL CHANGE JUST WAIT!" She yells from upstairs and I just chuckle at her antics.

There really is no food in this fridge. Where's the maid?

Oh yeah, if no one lives here how will she get paid? So there must be no maid here then. But this place looks awfully clean, no dust. Did uncle hire someone to clean the house? Or did they comeba- never, they wouldn't dare to.

If she has a new family, then what did oppa do to her? Obviously he said that he will keep her but she has a new family? Was he unable to keep her? Did she have to go to an orphanage?

I dragged my feet to the kitchen table and leaned on it.

What about oppa? What's he up to? Is he married? Did he marry his girlfriend? Did he not invite me to the wedding? Does he really hate me?

Looks like one of my hobbies is clenching my jaw.

I hear feet stumbling down the stairs and I know it's Tiffany. Who else would it be right?

"TAEYEON-AH! I'M DRESSED NOW!" She bursts into the room looking, well great. I mustn't lie right?

She's wearing a shirt that says "EACH X OTHER" with short shorts.

Even though it's simple, she still looks stunning. I won't lie but I simply won't say it to her.

"How is it?" She spins around and is anticipated to hear my answer.

"Fine." I turn around and take a deep breath.

"How do I look in it?"

"Fine." I grab a glass and pour water in it.

"Just fine?" I hear her croak in dissapointment and when I turn to her, her expression seems, sad.

"Wha? I never said you look bad ok?" I gave her a glass and she places it on the counter.

"So I don't look good?" She shows me her puppy eyes and I thank the Lord for my cold exterior.

"Yeah you look good. Now I'm going to change." I say swiftly and gulp down my water.

I turn to her and her eyes are crescents which is simply breath taking.

I run upstairs and barge into my room. I close the door and clutch onto piece of clothing that's covering my heart.

"Deep breath Taeyeon-ah. Don't let her bother you." I take deep breaths as I count to 10.

When my heart beat seems steady I change into some clothes, just a black and white cardigan with some black short shorts. I apply light makeup and put some belongings into a small bag. Just like a wallet, power bank etc.
