I broke down after singing. I was literally sobbing. I thought I cried hard enough at the bar while he was away but this time I cried harder. What made me feel more shit is when I heard him sniffing beside me too.
"Lean back, I'll drive again." I heard his voice crack.
I sobbed again as I seat properly.
I watched the buildings pass by. It was so beautiful and I find it rude. How can they still be beautiful in such a heartbreaking moment? I cried even more. Life is so unfair.
"We're here." I heard him say.
I am now done crying. My eyes are puffy but is still wet, still about to cry any minute. The audacity of these eyes to have some more tears to bring out is just amazing. Please stop... Jebal.
"Taeyeon, can you get up?" He tried reaching out for me but I avoided him and moved.
"No, I c-can do it." I said, somehow sober.
When I turned to him, his eyes were puffy too. I was shocked. I stopped moving when I realized he also cried.
"B-Baekhyun..." I called out.
"What?" He silently answered, elbows are leaned on the window and his head resting on his hand. He looked tired.
"I'm sorry..." Tears blurred my vision again.
His hand massaged his temple. I know he is thinking of something to say. It is hard for him. I know.
"Sorry for what?" He asked not batting an eye on me.
"For crying... For hurting..."
"Fvck, you don't have to be sorry for hurting, Taeyeon!"
His aggressive response made me flinch. It was like his patience came to an end.
"You don't have to be sorry for feeling the pain. You don't have to be sorry for your bestfriend too. And most importantly you don't have to be sorry for this break up, Taeyeon." He said the last sentence slowly like he was making me understand his point.
His eyes are now bloodshot. I don't know if it was because of anger or pain. Or both. His eyes says he's in pain but his voice says it's his anger.
"Did you really love me?" He scoffed the question and looked out the window on his side.
I swallowed hard. My heart is sinking as I see him like this! I don't know how much long I can stand the tears back before breaking down again in pain.
"Or more like, did we really break up? Because fuck, Taeyeon, we still love each other!"
I couldn't speak. The way he indirectly said he still love me warmed my heart. At some point I thought he'd agree on getting back together again. But it's just too good to be true.
"I don't know why we have to suffer like this. I don't know why we have to be in pain just so others will not feel it." He said.
"Baek..."
He shook his head...
"Get inside..." A sigh of restlessness came out from him. "You're tired... So rest."
