Chapter 15: Closure

---

Like time suspended,
A wound unmended-
You and I.

We had no ending,
No said good-bye.

For all my life,
I'll wonder why.

Taeyeon's Point of View

"Anong ganap?" tanong naman ng mga kasama ko. Nandito kami sa kwarto ngayon at nakita naman namin na nag-uusap yung Exo sa living room.

"Fiancé mo ba talaga si Kris?" Sooyoung asked Jessica. Napatango naman ako dahil yun din yung gusto kong itanong kanina pa. Wala kasi kaming time na mag-usap after naming dalawin si Yoong.

"Ah, oo." She said.

"What?" sigaw naman ni Fany. "No offense ha, ang daming kadramahan tapos kayo din pala ang magkakatuluyan! Halos mabaliw ka pa nga ng dahi--" Tinakpan na namin yung magaling niyang bibig kasi kung anu-anong info ang maibibigay niya na hindi naman maiintindihan ni Jessica.

"Anong kami?" Jessica asked.

Nagtype naman ako sa phone ko then handed to her after kong magsulat. 'Don't mind her. Nabigla lang kami sa news. Anyway, congrats.'

She smiles at us. Mukhang kailangan na naming maghanda ng dinner kaya bumaba yung iba para tumulong. Habang pababa ako ay may biglang humila sa akin.

"Taeyeon.." I looked at Kris. Siya yung humila sa akin. Aalis na sana ako pero hinarangan niya ako. "I-I needed to confirm.."

Mahinang-mahina yung boses niya. "Can we talk?" He asked. Hindi naman ako sumagot. Hindi ko siya pinansin. "Please."

Pumunta naman kami sa labas ng villa. I told him to wait for me after ng ilang minutes dahil baka magtaka na sabay kaming lalabas ni Kris.

I saw him sitting on the sun lounge. "You're here." He said. He looks confused. "I'm sorry." He said. Nabigla naman ako sa pagiging straight forward niya.

'For what?' Pinabasa ko naman yung reply ko using my phone.

"For everything. We messed up everything." He said.

Hindi naman ako sumagot. 'What do you need?' I ask him.

"Sasagutin mo ba ako if I ask questions? I'm fucking curious. I can't even sleep at night." pag-amin naman niya. "What happened to SNSD?"

Natigilan naman ako saglit. Maybe telling him is not a sin. He deserves to know what happened. 'Naaksidente kami.' I type those words.

"Fck." He said aloud.

'When Exo left, we felt alone. Lahat kami nalungkot. You left without a word. I'm the leader and I felt useless. Sobrang nabaliw si Jessica sa pagkawala mo. I will tell you this not to make you feel guilty pero kailangan mong malaman yung mga consequences ng ginawa mo. Jessica tried everything single thing para makita ka. She cut herself secretly. Even parents can't handle her.'

Nabigla siya sa nabasa niya dahil sinabi ko na yung totoo. I want him to know the truth. 'When she heard that you're going to Philippines, she immediately went to you. Nagmamadali kaming sundan siya pero naaksidente kami. That cause a lot of trauma. That's why I can't speak.'

Yumuko nalang siya bigla. Lalapitan ko sana siya pero nakita ko na umiiyak siya. Nalulungkot din ako sa nangyayari. Bakit kaya kami humantong sa ganito?
