Sana entered her girlfriends office flowers in hand to surprise her. Turns out she was the one who got surprised. She was met by a scene she witnessed so many times done by her girlfriend. The shock made Sana drop the flowers.

The flowers made a small thud but was enough to be heard by the two people in front of her. Tzuyu's eyes widened as she got a glimpse of her pink haired girlfriend.

"Sana it's not what you think." Tzuyu explains as she approached the older one. Sana stared at her with dark eyes almost pitch black. The other girl Tzuyu was kissing earlier exited the scene quietly.

Sana clenched her jaw caused by the anger the taller girl caused. The pink haired girl just closed her eyes and breathed deep then laughed bitterly afterwards.

"Then what was it Tzuyu? A movie? Are you filming? Because I can't see any cameras in here." Sana spat bitterly which took the taller one by surprise.

"P-please b-babe it was just a-a mi-mistake I'm s-sorry. Please gi-give me on-one last chance. I l-love you." The taller one begged while crying then taking Sana's hand and kissing it. The older one has caught Tzuyu cheat a lot of times but ended up forgiving her. But this time she couldn't take it anymore. Although it hurts she just needed to let go of her. Tears streamed down the girls face and withdraw her hand from Tzuyu who was holding it earlier.

"That was the last chance Tzuyu. If you really loved me, you never did this over and over again. I'm tired of forgiving you and giving you chances when clearly you are not gonna change ever." Sana turned her back and left the girl there. Her tears streamed down her face and decided she needed to forget about her.

As she got out of that place she instantly went into the nearest convenience store and bought herself a drink. After she payed for it She didn't hesitate and chugged the alcoholic beverage.

Sana didn't care where her feet carried her. She just wanted to drink and forget about her ex-lover. Hours of mindless walking rain fell heavily and Sana let her tears fall along with the droplets of rain. Her feet felt tired so she decided to sit at the nearest stairs she saw. Sana finally stopped crying along with the rain. It didn't bother how cold she was. She bowed her head.

What a sore loser.

She chuckled at herself.

Sana lifted up her head and stared at the busy street. The pedestrian was filled with people holding their umbrellas but one girl caught Sana's eye.

The rain poured again but it wasn't strong like the rain earlier. The rain didn't bother Sana. She was frozen in her spot. The blonde girl walked elegantly holding her umbrella looking around almost as if she's admiring the surrounding.

Sana's eyes followed her as the latter walked and admired the rain. Sana shook her head. Her heart skipped a beat.

Thump

Sana bowed her head and held her beating chest.

What's this?

Her mind was wandering, the picture of the stranger still stuck in her mind. She was busy with her thoughts that she didn't even feel someone was beside her and put an umbrella on her head.

"You're gonna get sick in that state you know?"

The voice startled the pink haired girl making her look up. She was surprised when she saw the owner of the voice.

It was the beautiful stranger.

"I u-umm y-eah but no o-one would really c-care though." The latter stuttered. It was true though. She has no family nor someone who checks up on her or really care about her.

"Why were you crying?" The stranger asked still holding the umbrella for the both of them.

Sana was shocked by the question since she was sure that before she saw the stranger she stopped crying.

"I saw you earlier. You were walking crying in the rain. And it just happened that I was across the street meeting a friend." The stranger said almost as if she was reading what's on Sana's mind.

"Oh yeah. Heartbreak stuff you know." Sana answered as tears clouded her vision again as she remembered how Tzuyu treated her and cheated on her. The stranger handed Sana a handkerchief.

The latter was surprised at the standing girls action.

"You know whoever broke your heart, They're a jerk. A beautiful girl like you doesn't deserve to be treated like I think you were." The stranger then walked to the side of the road hailing a taxi. The stranger took Sana's hand and led her to the taxi. It appears that the stranger knows the driver since they talked like friends.

"Take her to her house. Ask her for the address and take her there. Just go to my office and I'll pay you there." The driver nodded and it took Sana again by surprise.

"Uh-uhm i-i don't th-think this is n-necessary." The latter stuttered once again.

"Dont. Just let me do this. I don't want anything to happen to you. And it's late also I know you're drunk"

Sana didn't dare to protest and got inside the vehicle. She let down the window and called the blond girl

"Hey u-uhm may I know your n-name?" Sana asked shyly.

The girl smiled at her before speaking.

"Dahyun, Kim Dahyun. Good night Sana."

3 months later.

She kept coming back. Every night for the last 3 months hoping she'll find the one and only Kim Dahyun. She's all Sana could ever think about, she had so many questions left unanswered. Dahyun knew her name when she is certain that she didn't tell her. The blonde consumed the girls thoughts Tzuyu already long forgotten. Sana wanted to repay the stranger and maybe know her a little more but three months have passed and she didn't see her again.

That didn't give Sana a reason to stop. The handkerchief still with her as she can smell the faint scent of Dahyun. So familiar. It was 6pm and Sana got up shoving her wallet and keys into her bag and walked her way to the familiar place.

She sat and stared at the pedestrian. As she was staring little droplets of rain fell on her and she instantly cussed herself for being careless and not bringing her umbrella with her. There were no near establishment so she just let herself get soaked again. As she sat on the stairs she felt a presence beside her. It was Dahyun. Sana's eyes widened as she saw the girl.

"D-dahyun-ah uhmm." She bowed and hid her face. Dahyun chuckled. "Sana stop that get in here. You'll get sick in that state." Sana immediately obeyed and stood beside Dahyun.

The older one stood beside her and then Dahyun faced her. "What is it with rainy sad nights and you?" She asked smiling.

Sana stood there and chuckled nervously. "I- I don't know." She answered embarrassed that the girl found her in her current state again.

"Dahyun-ah can I ask you something?" The pink hair girl managed to voice out without stuttering. The girl beside her nodded and they stared into the pouring rain.

"Do you believe in fate or love at first sight?" The pink haired girl asked still staring at the pouring rain. Dahyun looked at her and smiled. "Why'd you ask that?" The pale girl asked amused at Sana's sudden question. "I think I just experienced it the first time I saw you." Sana said, now looking at the pale girl intently.

Dahyun smiled and kissed Sana.

As their lips moved in sync, Sana didn't know how to breath....

The things she's feeling right now is far more better and purer than how she felt for Tzuyu.

As they ran out of breath, they pulled away and Dahyun smiled at Sana.

Sana stood frozen as Dahyun walked away. Sana's eyes followed her as Dahyun mixed with the crowd.

And suddenly...she's gone
