CHANYEOL'S POV

It was fun doing my career, my music with EXO. But somehow I started to feel and to want to not just sing and dance. I wanted to write and sing my own music too.

I wanted to write a love song but somehow I couldn't relate to it since I have no girlfriend right now. Oh! I remembered I have the EXO-L. Maybe I just wanted to write and sing how I felt. There seems to be a music right in my mind but I can't seem to let it out. People were always gawking me, watching my every move. I somehow I wanted to go somewhere, somewhere I could hear my own voice, my own thought, my song.

Without any permission from my manager and without anyone knowing, I drove off somewhere where I myself even know where I am headed to. And I ended up on an old bridge where no one else would wanted to go to.

"Would I really find the right words that I want to say? Would I find the right music I wanted to play? or Should I find the real reason why I want to make a song? Should I find someone first in my life?"

JI EUN'S POV

The gush of the strong wind passed by me but I didn't even budge. My eyes were already red and swollen and I don't think something gonna hurt me more. I'm already broken. I already lost everything. The purpose of my live was gone the moment She was gone.

"Eomma! (mother)" I started to sob again.

"What's the purpose of it all when you're just gonna left me away?" I said through the winds "Why do I have to study really hard when you can't even see me finish it with honors? What's the purpose of all my savings for my future when you are not there anymore? What do you suppose me to do?"

"I's sorry mom, I know you don't want to see me like this. I tried to endure it but your absence is slowly killing me. I died already the moment that you did. What's the purpose of staying physically alive when deep inside of me is nothing. Wouldn't it be better to just end everything?"

I even cried more when I realize that after all saying those words no one else would answer me but the silence around me and the coldness of the railings of the bridge as I wrap my finger around it. Those railings where the only support I had not to fall yet to the free-flowing river beneath me.

No one else was here to stop me. Guess I did found a good spot not to be seen. It was an old bridge across the busy city were no one would mind going. The only thing I could hear is the tweeting voice of the birds and the gushing sound of the river. The only thing that touches me is the cold wind breeze and the only thing I could see is the view of the city, the tall buildings and the billboard facing my direction. There is no sign of human being near me.

That thought hit me again 'of course, no one else would be here for me'. I lips crumbled and a drop of tear fall down straight to the water. I started to lean forward and was thinking of letting go of my hold of the railings.

"anyeong!" (wich could mean bye or hello in korean) I was more than determine to make the jump.

"hana, dul, set (1, 2, 3)"

. . .

But I failed. I froze off full of embarrassment as I saw them in the bill board it felt like they are looking at me now. I gulped.

"Exo?" they started to smile and the advertisement appeared with the word 'lets save lives'. And then each of the Exo members started to appear on the screen with their beautiful smiles.

The song started to play on my phone that was on my pocket. I was almost startled with it. Good thing that I didn't jump. It was like a ringtone for the Exo-ls App. Exo have been active lately on social media ever since they had released another album and especially that they are going to have their 10th anniversary.
