Love Sacrifice ✑ SATZU (COMPLETED)

56

"Just keep practicing even without Tzuyu. Understand?" Dohyun said sternly.

"Yes, coach." Everyone's response, they were afraid that their male coach would scold them even more.

Dohyun approaches Suzy to talk about preparations for the big day tomorrow for the theater club.

"Where's Elkie?" Dohyun asked Suzy.

Suzy put down her phone and looked at Dohyun, "I can't contact her either."

Dohyun messed his hair and placed both his hands on his waist. "Why everyone is out of contact now?" he asked.

Suzy just shrugged and also wondered why.

On the other hand, Sana is approached by Nayeon and Jihyo.

"Did you had a fight with Tzuyu?" Nayeon asked as soon as she approached Sana.

Sana shook her head, "We were fine yesterday but I don't know why she suddenly didn't contact me." she suddenly felt sad.

Sana wondered if she had said or done something yesterday that made Tzuyu feel bad. Or there is another reason.

"Tzuyu don't usually ditch last practice knowing how she loves to perform on stage and she wants it perfect to give a great performance." Jihyo said.

"You're right Jihyo." Nayeon agreed with what her friend said. "By the way, Tzuyu isn't here. How can you start training?" Nayeon asked Sana because there are many scenes where Sana and Tzuyu act.

That's another of Sana's problems. Some of the theater members could continue their act but most of them therefore could not act if they were not with Tzuyu. They can't actually train well without Tzuyu's presence especially since Tzuyu has the biggest role.

"I don't know---" Sana's words didn't continue when someone spoke behind them.

"Sana," the man's voice caught the attention of the three girls.

"Chan, what are you doing here?" Sana asked as Chan suddenly appeared in front of them knowing that Chan was not part of the theater club.

"Mr. DoHyun asked me to accompany you for a moment as a temporary exchange in Tzuyu's role, since she's not here." Chan said shyly. "He also said you'll be more comfortable acting if you're with me right now." He added.

"Don't worry, Sana. Chan is good at acting. It runs in our blood." Nayeon proudly stated, flexing her and her cousin about being good at acting field.

Sana isn't sure if she can do well if her partner isn't Tzuyu, "Uhmm okay."

"Then we'll start the practice and ...." Jihyo left first to pick up the script and immediately returned. "Here. Read Tzuyu's line." she said to Chan.

Chan smiled and nodded. "I'll do my best." then he glanced at Sana. "Shall we start?"

Sana nodded at him. "All right."

------------

Sana checked the time on her wristwatch. It's 11:40 in the evening.

she was very tired after the last hectic training because they had to work hard on themselves and did well in the last pravtice, she was also thankful for Chan’s help and they held the training well even without Tzuyu.

After their very hard final practice, she went straight to their mansion to have a talk with her father.

She have a feeling that her father is the reason why Tzuyu didn't show up today. But the conversation she had with her father didn't went well and it gotten worse.

They also talked about something she didn’t expect them to talk about. Her father told her everything. And about Tzuyu.

But ofcourse she didn't believe everything her father had said. She thought that her dad was just messing with her and trying to destroy her relationship with Tzuyu and to make her return to Japan.

And now her mind was confused and her thoughts are complicated. Many questions went through her mind after hernfather told her something she did not expect.

She shrugged thoughtfully when she now felt stress after a long and exhausted day.

She is now walking to the bus stop area. The street lights was blinking and the street was empty. She was the only one walking down the street. It kinda gives her the thrill and chills of being alone on a lonely street. She adjusted her jacket as a cold breeze touched her exposed skin.

She looked down when she noticed her right shoelace loose. She bent down to fix it. She smiled bitterly as she remembered something.

"You'll slip again if this shoelace is undone well."

'I can still think of her at times like this.' She thought and tied her shoes neatly and stood up.

She started walking again and came back to look in front of her. She suddenly stopped when she saw the woman's figure in the distance. It's walking in her path.

She suddenly felt her heart drop in fear as the woman slowly approaching her. She could not clearly see the woman's face because of the broken light pole it's still blinking in its place. She backed away when she felt that she's in danger.

She suddenly thought of running but before she could turn around, she bumped to a man behind her.

The man held both her shoulders. "Nice to see you again, Sana." said the man.

Sana looked up to see the man's face. Her eyes widened when she realized that it was Lucas..

Lucas grinned and his eyes went to the woman in front, who was now close to where Sana and Lucas were standing.

"I didn't expect you to ask me for help." Lucas said, grinning broadly.

"I just don't have a choice." The woman said.

Sana seemed to stiffen by hearing the familiar voice.

She slowly turned around to see if her guess was right.

She gulped at the extreme nervousness she felt.

'Why?' Sana asked herself as soon as she clearly saw the woman's face.

She could not believe what she saw in front of her.

Sana met the woman's cold and dead eyes. No emotion to be seen. It was very different.

"T-tzuyu ...." Sana whispered between her breaths.

Then a handkerchief covered her nose and mouth.

She tried not to inhale the chloroform smell from the handkerchief, Lucas had placed to cover her nose and mouth, but she failed to do so because Lucas was stronger than her.

With one breath her vision gradually blurred and she slowly felt drowsy and dizzy.

She reached out her hands to ask Tzuyu for help but unexpectedly, Tzuyu just stared at her then she turned her back on Sana and started walking away. Sana felt her heart ache to see Tzuyu walking away from her.

'Tzuyu ..... why?'

A tear escaped from Sana's eyes as she just stared at Tzuyu's back she then completely lost consciousness.
