"Loving you
Is such a painful thing
Feelings that can't be emptied
Is such a sad thing"
"Hyung are you okay?" Jisoo ask Joo Hyuk with concern, "You look like in a lot of pain when you see her. Did you perhaps have meet her?"
"I'm okay. It's nothing." Joo Hyuk shook his head, but he does feel a lot of pain when he sees her. She's freshman, he's sure have never meet her yet, but why seeing her bring a lot of pain, 'Don't be to superstitious Joo Hyuk-ah, maybe she's so beautiful that's why it hurt just by seeing her.' He thinks to himself.
"Aiii hyung!!!!" called Jisoo, "You spacing out again. Answer me, did you perhaps know her?"
"What you guys doing?" ask Lee Jun Ki before Joo hyuk could answer Jisoo question.
"Ohhh hyung" Jisoo and Joo Hyuk greet him in unison.
"Is Joo Hyuk hyung, he can't st...." before Jisoo could finish his mouth already been cover by Joo Hyuk hands.
"We just talking about the welcoming party for new students." Lie Joo Hyuk. "Since we're the organizing committee we should do a really good welcoming party so those new kids can feel like a part of the family."
"As expected you take your role seriously. Not like Baekhyun and Jisoo" Jun Ki smile proudly to Joo Hyuk, "By the way, any of you have seen Baekhyun? I haven't seen him the whole day."
"You know him well hyung, by this time he will be looking for new girls to fool around." Answer Jisoo while laughing, "Last time I see him trying to get a freshman phone number."
"That kid. I'll go and find him. We talk later about the party plan." Reply Jun Ki then went looking for Baekhyun.
"Party plan my , you such a good liar hyung, you're spacing out all the time and you say that you're planning for the party." Hissed Jisoo to Joo Hyuk.
"I'm sorry Jisoo-ah, but you don't need to tell Jun Ki hyung everything. I need to go."
4 days later
"Woah, she has skills." Joo hyuk heard someone beamed.
"Look at her, she's blended with the song." He heard another voice.
"That movement is really difficult and she doing it effortless." He got closer and see lots of people in front of the Theater room.
"Such a beauty and dance really well too." Another voice beamed.
"Why you all crowded here?" Ask Joo Hyuk and his voice drag everyone attention, they all greet him. "Sunbaenim!"
"Ohhhh, there's a new girl. She's joining the dance club. The way she dances is mind-blowing!" marveled a girl in the crowd. "You should see it with your own eyes."
"Move, let me see!" order Joo Hyuk and everyone move right away giving him space to have a closer look.
The moment he sees her his heart hurt awfully. His eyes filled with tears. "Do you treat us as animal?" she barked. "What?" I remember answer her with disbelief. "We became like this because of Goryeo and the drought. But we still human" she thundered while continue, "Don't insult us by drawing us easily."
"Sunbaenim! Gwaenchanh-a?"
'I heard people surround me asking full of worry, I almost collapse, what just happen? What is that, a flashback? But that never happen, how can I have flashback without even living the moment!'
"Hyung!" Jisoo run towards the crowd, "Hyung gwaenchanh-a?" Jisoo shuttered. "You look pale. Let's go, you need to rest."
Jisoo drag Joo Hyuk to the committee rooms, giving him water, "Hyung, what have you been doing? You didn't sleep? You have eating?" Jisoo ask full of worried.
"I'm okay, just tired." He lied.
"Don't lie to me hyung. I know you've been in pain since you see that girl." Jisoo remark while waiting for Joo hyuk reaction.
"Don't be stupid, why I'm in pain just seeing a girl that I never meet before?" He lied again, 'Right, why I'm in a lot of pain when I see her? What have happened to my heart? Did I get a heart surgery which is I'm not aware of? Maybe her lover heart that's why it hurt seeing her because they're not together now? Don't be stupid Joo Hyuk you never have heart surgery, but why?' He thought.
After sitting there in silence with Jisoo, Joo Hyuk decide to look for the girl, maybe knowing her can give him some answer. "Jisoo I'll be going to library. Text me if someone want to see me." Requested Joo Hyuk walking out the room
"Yaaa hyung, you still not recover yet." Fumed Jisoo while Joo Hyuk leaving, "This hyung never listen to me, aishhh I don't care anymore."
Joo hyuk went to the Theater room to see if she's there. But she's not there. "I'll just sit here playing the piano maybe she'll come back." Stated Joo Hyuk while started playing the piano. Behind the curtain there is Seohyun who decide to practice more.
She listens to the beautiful sound of the piano and started to dance. The sound is so harmonious; she never hears some who play so gently but still bring out the most beautiful sounds. After dancing for 5 minutes she became curious to whom the sounds belong. 'I need to see who's playing it. The melody is so breathtaking.' She opens the curtain and see him lost in playing the piano, his eyes are closed, "I saw you before right? From Hubaekjae." He asks. I remember walk away and he demand, "You should pay for the drawings you ripped. If you have nothing to give me, you could show me your sword dance."
'Bwo-ya? What have just happened? Why feel guilty seeing him? Why my heart feel pain?' She asks herself but a male voice snapped, "Who's there?" ask the voice, Seohyun can't run she's to shocked from the flashback. He walks towards her. Their eyes finally meet for the first time. They don't know each other but their eyes are like pleading for love.
