This was it. This was the day she's going to ask Seulgi to be his girlfriend. She felt pretty confident in herself, actually. She doesn't know how to make it special and all, but she figured if she's just sincere, Seulgi would definitely say yes.
She had thought, that if she just go and ask her naturally, she figured it's what Seulgi would've wanted. On another ordinary day, where birds fly and flowers bloom, is when Wendy would find it fitting.
She's on the way to campus, slightly skipping from a giddy feeling. She was in love, finally forgetting about the painful heartbreak that left her to be the worse version of herself.
She saw the flower shop that she always ignore when she passes on the way, she doesn't know why, but it looks extra lovely today. She decided to buy some, for her future girlfriend. She bought a bouquet of black-eyed Susan, wrapped in brown paper and tied neatly with a small rope. She thought the color yellow always reminded her of Seulgi. Yellow flowers, sunset and sunrise, Seulgi's lively yellow binder. Seulgi owns the color yellow.
Seulgi made Wendy realize just how beautiful and colorful the world can be even after a terrifying storm.
Wendy isn't sure herself about made Seulgi different from the others, but there's just something about her. It made Wendy feel like drinking a nice hot cocoa that leaves a warm sensation throughout her whole body. She liked the feeling. The feeling of being close to Seulgi.
Wendy found Seulgi sitting by the fountain, a book in her hands. Wendy smiles to herself and approach Seulgi with the flowers behind her back.
"Hey Seulgi," Wendy greeted with a smile that would earn her millions.
Seulgi lifts her head and smiles when she saw Wendy. "Oh hey,"
Wendy sat down beside Seulgi and looks at her with adoration. Wendy grabs one of Seulgi's hand and hand the flower to her. Seulgi seems surprised, and right when she wants to say something, Wendy cuts her off.
"Before you say anything, I wanna tell you something first," Wendy said. "You look absolutely beautiful to-"
"Babe?" A deep voice interrupted her.
The two girls look up and find a guy in front of them with a questioning expression.
"Tae! Hi," Seulgi exclaims, suddenly jumping up to stand. Wendy is looking at the two confusedly.
"Taehyung, this is my friend Wendy. Wendy, this is my boyfriend Taehyung."
Wendy's eyes widen at the last sentences.
"Where'd you get that flower?" Taehyung asks Seulgi.
"Oh, I got it on the way to school." Seulgi lied.
Wendy isn't sure how to feel at this moment. What was happening? She couldn't process this whole situation but she understands the way she felt the familiar feeling of a broken heart. So, she stood up and was more than ready to tell Taehyung off for, well, she doesn't know. All she knew is that she was mad at Taehyung, Seulgi's boyfriend.But one look on Seulgi's expression and the way she shakes her head lightly, Wendy chose to just storm off.
Wendy didn't know where she was going. She didn't feel like going to class and waste her time there. At the same time, she didn't want to waste any tears while she cries on her bed. So she went home only to get her car and drive to who-knows-where.
It all happened so fast...
She has thousands of questions generating in her head within the seconds, but she was too scared of the answers. All of this, it was just sweetness in disguise. Like eating a candy that you didn't know has a sour centre. Maybe, she isn't supposed to be happy in terms of love. Just when she thought she founded her cure, it all turns against her.

"She has a boyfriend, Baekhyun. A fucking boyfriend!" Wendy sobs as she blows her nose to a tissue.
"I heard you the first time sweetie." Baekhyun said sympathetically as he pats her back.
"Ugh God, this is so pathetic." Wendy said sluggishly.
"In the matter of time, you'll find someone."
"But I like her." She whispers.
"All right softy Wendy, under different circumstances, I would tease the fuck out of you for being such a baby. But since I'm nice and need to go, I'll spare you." Baekhyun said matter-of-factly.
"Whatever," Wendy sniffs. "See you later, then?"
Baekhyun reaches for his jacket and smiles at her before leaving for the door. Now Wendy is all alone again. She went to her bedroom and watches sad movies in marathon.
To say that she is sad was an understatement. She loved Seulgi, but all of this was just a game to her. She really didn't know she-of all people-got played like this. She was in the middle of watching Hachiko when she fell asleep with tears staining her cheeks.
