Tess x Baekhyun
Holding the one and the only picture which Baekhyun have of his childhood friend Tess. They were born and brought up together in a small town in South Korea. She was his neighbor and a very good and caring friend. Gradually, days turned into months and months into years and finally they grew up to be an adult. Tess was studying in a college and perusing her bachelors degree while Baekhyun too was looking for a suitable job for himself in and around town and nearby cities. They had a good intimacy towards each other and every now and then they used to share every bit of any small or big things happening in their day to day life. In fact, they liked to be in each others company and closeness everyday.

One fine day, Tess came to Baekhyun and said that she had to go away with her fiance as her marriage was fixed. Baekhyun was not at all prepared to hear this and he had a mixed kind of expression going on in his heart. However, he congratulated her and wished her all the best in life. But suddenly, tears rolled down on Tess's cheek. Baekhyun got confused and asked her if she was unhappy about anything. She said that she was already in love with someone. Baekhyun was surprised to hear this because he could not believe how could Tess fall in love with someone and that too without his knowledge. Baekhyun controlling his emotions and asked her about the man she loved. Tess remained silent about it and requested him to leave the topic for the moment. He asked her once again but she ran away without speaking a word. That night Baekhyun could not sleep because he had two questions going on in his mind. First, he thought who could be the man whom Tess loved and second he thought why Tess did not speak about the man to him before as they used to share everything with each other.

After that incident, Baekhyun tried to meet Tess many a times but each time he was unsuccessful in his effort. Baekhyun kept his silence thinking that he should have his own limitations now as Tess was to be married very soon. Finally, the day came when Tess was to be tied in a holy knot. Preparations were on full swing and the house was decorated with lighting and flowers. Soft music was making the marriage ceremony more colorful and guests were coming from every nook and corners of the city. Baekhyun decided to meet Tess once before her marriage to congratulate her since she was his best friend. When Baekhyun stepped into her room she was looking totally different. She was not like the girl next door who he was familiar with and used to jump and scream on Baekhyun over trifle matters. She was looking very gorgeous and beautiful in the red wedding gown. As usual, Baekhyun greeted her by her name and she turned towards him. As Baekhyun went close towards her, she gave a tight slap on his face. Baekhyun did not moved a bit and was staring at Tess as if he wanted to ask her the reason for getting slapped. But Baekhyun did not spoke a word and controlling his emotions he moved back to get out of the room. Tess now called Baekhyun by his name and asked him to wait. She came to Baekhyun and said won't he ask her why she slapped him. Baekhyun was still very cool and kept his silent about it. Finally, Tess holding his hands burst into tears. Baekhyun spoke and said to Tess that in life some relations are so valuable that they are not limited to the binding of any relationship. Baekhyun grabbing her both hands into his strong fist said that he will always remember her as his good childhood friend and the great inspiration of his life.

Later in the night, Tess got married and departed with her husband and from Baekhyun's life for forever. After sometime, Baekhyun landed a good job for himself and soon settled into a happy married life. Now, he is a retired service man and still the sweet memories of Tess is not erased from his mind. Today, he realizes that Tess was not only his best childhood friend but also a valuable moment of his life which he failed to realize during that point of his life. He could have owned her for forever into his own life but his youth and innocent mind let her go like that from his life. However, he considers himself to be lucky enough to have her photograph with him. Whenever he feels alone he takes out that piece of snap and he feels as if Tess is very close to him.
