When do one know they are on the point where they have to give up the person they love?
I open my eyes slowly. My head hurts like hell. Looking around the room I found empty bottles of wine on the table. Last night, I decided to stay at a hotel. The staff didn't ask many questions as I arrived looking emotionless then ordered 3 bottles of wine to my room. I struggle to sit up from the couch that I was laying on and turning on my phone. 10 AM. Notifications come immediately,
Jisoo : Jen, where are you? Did you saw it? Kim Jennie, please answer me. Your phone is off? Are you okay???? Message me as soon as you see my message
Lisa : Unnie, are you okay? Do you want me to come to your apartment? Unnie, please answer the message. We're getting worried. Unnie, please be okay.
Chae : Unnie, we can't reach you, please reply as soon as you see our messages.
I'm fine, don't worry. I turned off my phone last night. Yes, I saw it. But I'm fine.
I push myself to the bathroom to shower. As the cold water flows down I my head feels a bit clearer 'is this the end, then? I want him to be happy but if being with Irene what makes him happy now... I'm fine, right?' I want to cry but I can't. I just feel numb and I don't know what feelings that I can feel right now. After turning off the shower, I put on yesterday clothes before brushing my teeth. I can't even bother to look at my appearance on the mirror to see how I look.
I open my phone to contact my old friend who I know own a moving company. Tae didn't know but I have a small apartment unit near the office that I bought just in case I have to work overnight. Today I'll leave our apartment. Daehun said his workers will be at my place in 2 hours but I ask him if they can arrive in 30 minutes since I have to leave the place soon. Sensing something wrong he just accept the condition without asking anything. I pick up my bag that was on the floor and leave the hotel. Thankfully the headache gone so I don't have to call for my family driver to send me home so I don't have to make my parents worry.
"Hello, Ms. Kim. We're sent by Seo-sajangnim to help you move out from your apartment." A woman, who I think 2-3 years older than me, greets me as I open the door. Behind her stand 3 guys + a trolley with several empty cardboards on it.
"Come in. I already separate which is my items but please help if you spot any feminine items, which is clearly mine, just move it as well. I don't want to leave anything behind." Looking at their face seems like they can get what happened. "This is the bedroom, you can start here." I smile at them. They start moving my clothes into the boxes that they bought. As I watched the closet slowly bare from my clothes I exhale. This is need to be done. I walk to the kitchen bar and tapping my hand on the paper before deciding to write a small note.
For all the times we make memories in this apartment, I want to say thank you. - Jennie
I stick it on the refrigerator which I know Tae will see since every time he enter the apartment he will immediately drink cold water. I put clean up any cutlery that was mine from the kitchen, my mug that's coupled with Tae's, kitchen mitt, apron, and other things that Tae know that was mine.
