"Sorry." Taeyeon added with embarrassment confessing out of the blue but seeing Tiffany's no response she felt more uncomfortable and afraid the woman might disgust her.

"Gooodbye, my Taetae." Tiffany told to herself as she watched Taeyeon held her two kids in hand and before they walked away, Jaehyun waved his hand into Tiffany's direction with his dorky smile that the eyesmile waved back.
"Goodbye Fany-ah." Taeyeon said to herself as she tried her best not to looked back at the woman who broke her heart.
