PART 4

“________-ya, it’s your turn!” your friends call you to take the microphone.

“Nooooo… Let me be the audience.” You reply.

You are at a Karaoke place with your hearts, building every piece of your life that has been shattered by him. It already 3 months since that night, but it seems like your tears are not going to dry. Honestly, one of your friends has introduced you to her friend. You’re not turning her offer down. Making him as a runaway? Maybe yes. Now, he is sitting beside you. You feel comfort with him. He’s not rushing in you and self-aware of his position.

“_______-ya, want to take a walk? You seem to be not enjoying this karaoke.” He says.

“Not a bad idea, oppa. I’m starving actually hehe.”

“Let’s go then!”

Then, you and Min Joo take a walk outside. It’s already around 9PM. Both of you decided to eat at a café nearby that have less visitors. Then as you enter the café, someone call your name from the right side of the café.

“_________-ssi!”

Guess what. You meet both of people who are at the bottom of your people-i-want-to-meet list. You can see Zen is surprised as well with this unwanted moment. You hesitate to approach them but Min Joo already stares at you, asking for your hesitation. Then, forcefully you walk to their table, with all your strength to hold your chin up.

“Annyeong! Why don’t you join us!” Kyungju says to both of you and Min Joo already nodded before asking you and introducing himself.  Damn, do I have to put my poker face on now?

“Oppa, why don’t you say anything?” Kyungju says to Zen.

“Em.. Eh..  Annyeong…”

It is totally awkward. All the sweet words you’ve said to me, where do they go?

“Are both of you dating?” suddenly MinJoo asking Kyungju and Zen,

“Emmm, this Oppa can’t have an official girlfriend yet. We’re just close.” Kyungju answer it with a confidence, big smile and you totally hate her answer because it’s waking you up. You are totally not over Zen yet.

You just want to escape this moment. Watching Kyungju take care of what Zen must and mustn’t eat, wiping his mouth, holding his hand. Things that you DID and you have to admit that Kyungju is taking care of him more than you could do. This dinner is flowing smoothy as all of you bring an easy topic, not a sensitive issue.

You realize that Zen sometimes take a glance on you, but you won’t bother it. Looking at him now is hurting you. How he can live better because of a girl that isn’t you.

“______-ya, you will come to Show right?” Kyungju ask you.

“Oppa, have you given ______ the ticket?” she asks Zen.

“Not yet.”   Zen doesn’t give so much expression during this dinner.

“Yaaa! She’s your best friend and how could you forgot!” says Kyungju.

“It’s okay, Kyungju. By the way, it’s already very late. Thank you for letting us join both of you.” you say as you really want to escape this time.

“Wait a moment. I have these two VVIP tickets for the last concert day. It’s in Seoul. Take these for both of you!” Kyungju put those tickets on your hand, insisting you to take it.

“Woow, thank you, Kyungju.” MinJoo says.

“Thank you, Kyungju. Anyeong!” you says quickly as you’re standing up but you lose your balance and nearly falling down if MinJoo doesn’t catch you. You can see Zen stands up when you’re slipped out but sitting down again.

“Aigoo, _____-ya. Be careful, please. Are you okay?” says MinJoo as he is holding your arms, support your body to stand up.

“I’m okay, oppa.” You answer.

Suddenly MinJoo put his arms around your shoulder and lead you way. You know he is just worrying about you and helping you to walk properly. But that’s not what someone   behind both of you think.

Weeks later, afternoon, the concert day…

You are sitting in front of your TV, holding that Zen Show ticket. MinJoo is busy with his college activity and ask you to give it to anybody else. Yourself is arguing whether to come or not. Should I come? See him for the very last time? Listen to his voice?

Then, suddenly the news program that you watch, reporting about Zen Show. You watch it for awhile then you get up from your couch, heading to your dresser and grab your make up set.

I promise to let you go after this, Oppa…

You don’t have any difficulties to get a seat as you are holding a VVIP pass. You can see how many people come to this Show and how excited they are when the curtain is falling down. You are also enjoying this burning atmosphere and singing along through all songs. You are totally amazed to see Zen on the stage. You are nearly cry as you know how hard he has tried to keep this position. For a moment, you forget all the pain he gives to you. You see him as a man who fighting for his dream.

Oppa, I really can’t stand beside you again. We are not meant for each others. We are too far apart…I’m choosing the right way to let you have your freedom, to let you having a better “someone”… But I don’t know if I will find someone who I will love more than you. Oh, It’s not will I, but CAN I?

Finally, it is the last song from the Show. Your eyes are totally fixed on Zen. Zen is sweeping his eyes around your section when you feel both of your eyes are meeting and your heart is beating faster, then you turn around, finding the exit. Bye, oppa…
