Too Much That it Hurts

Choices

“Thank you very much, birthday girl!” Yuri, Tiffany, and Taeyeon said together from the inside of Yuri’s car.

“You’re very welcome, guys!”

They have just sent Jessica and Krystal home after being treated free lunch by the birthday girl. Earlier in the morning, well not too early because they knew Jessica would hate to wake up early, they gave the girl a little surprise party and cake in Choi Residence according to Krystal’s instruction. They had a lot of fun and lovely friendship chat.

After waving each other and seeing the car just left, the Jung sisters turned around towards the front door. As she walked, Jessica frowned at the still absence of Sooyoung’s bicycle in the park. She hasn’t seen the nerd from the time she just woke up until now. Even after they had finished their so called birthday party, she hadn’t seen the presence of the girl. And as they went out to the restaurant for her birthday treat, noticing Sooyoung’s bicycle wasn’t on its place made her remember the date Yoona asked her on the day before.

How idiot I am to wish for her to realize my birthday when she’s exactly with someone else. Jessica smiled weakly at her own thought.

“Unnie, what’re you doing?” Krystal looked back as she realized that her unnie had just stopped and busy watching the air blankly.

“Nothing.” Jessica answered fast before following her sister going inside.

As they entered the house, Krystal started running towards Jessica room after mumbling, “Ugh, I need to pee.” which made her unnie laugh and shook her head before following her traces.

As she arrived in her room, she walked to her table to find the air conditioner remote. Just then she notice that there was just a regular sized envelope beside the remote. She opened it and found a train card and a piece of folded paper inside. Jessica started taking out and unfolding the paper as she sat on the chair. There she found some notes.

Good afternoon Jessica, or Sica, well if I still have the right to call you by that again.

I sent this to you by my consciousness about our relationship (or whatever you might call it). I had left you hanging for months and when I asked to end all, you rejected, and then I stupidly left you before making it clear.

So, today I want to offer you a little journey, to meet me and talk it over. We will talk until we have the agreement of where we will go after this, our lives’ ways.

But you can choose tho, whether you will go or no. I can understand if you hate me too much to see my face, for what I had done. If you don’t have any will just torn this letter and throw it out. I know I don’t deserve your attention.

But if by chance, you still have a heart to talk to me, please do. Please come to the orphanage where we had been before. Use my train card to get there, and if in case you don’t remember the road, I had drawn a simple map behind this paper. One more thing, bring your casual sliding bag with you, I guess you’ll need it.

You always have your choice, Sica.

I’ll be standing in the end.

CSY

Without much thinking, Jessica quickly folded the paper, took her sliding bag, then threw the letter in there along the train card that she’s just put in her wallet. After changing into more comfortable t-shirt, she slung the bag and ran towards out of the door. But at that time, Krystal was out from the bathroom. Curious with how her unnie acted in a rush, she shouted at her from the door.
