Sun rays beams into Tzuyu's sleeping face, making her eyes twitch from the brightness. She stretched out her body and get off from her bed. Despite of being a happy girl she was, she can't find any reason to be happy again.
She walked towards the shower room and start to fix herself before going to her school. Being a only daughter of her family, It makes her miss her mother and father that's been working on Taiwan and just send her allowance here in Korea.
She's been in Korea for two years now, that's why she's very fluent when it comes to Korean language.
Tzuyu didn't take long to fix herself and get ready for school, she went to her condominium's parking lot and got in into her car. She opened her phone before starting her car and saw a pretty lady on her phone's background, It makes Tzuyu's heart break once again.
Tzuyu can't seem to forget about the girl, even how many times she tried to. Instead of thinking about her past love, Tzuyu started driving and play a song on her car.
'I won't lie to you, I know he's just right for you.'
Tzuyu played along in the rhythm while tapping her car steering wheel, even if she can't really relate to the song.
She now realize that's the clouds were so dimmed and rain drops can be seen on her car window.
"What the heck? the sun was so bright earlier." She thought.
Then it started, the car slowly becoming crowded because of the stoplight on her way to the school.
She saw a girl same school as hers on the street trying to find a way to escape rain but can't find somewhere to stay at. Tzuyu doesn't even care, she was about to step on her car pedal but instead of going straight to her school, She felt herself betrayed her.
She found her self infront of the girl asking her to come with her to school, the girl hesitated first but then the rain start pouring hard, they both enter the car and Tzuyu started driving.
"Uhm, Thank you for saving me from the rain." Tzuyu steal a glance at her, she now realized that the girl was Myoui Mina, her school's student council President.
"Welcome." Tzuyu replied shortly at the girl. Then, The car atmosphere started being awkward and quiet, Tzuyu can't help to fake a cough just to fill the silence with a little noise.
They arrived at school safely while Tzuyu is still struggling, If she should ask her to share umbrella with her or what. She opened Mina's door while holding an open umbrella in her other hand.
"I-I will walk with you until you get into your classroom." Tzuyu curses herself for stuttering while, Mina just smile at her and nod her head. Tzuyu felt a small sting on her heart But she shrugged off and started walking.
They arrived at Mina's classroom, Tzuyu bid her goodbye and was about to go to her own classroom.
"Tzuyu, Would you like to have some Ice Cream after class?" Mina asked her, Tzuyu have been shocked for a second because of the other girl invitation, but she immediately nod her head and smile at her.

"What happened to you?" Her Bestfriend Chaeyoung asked, Tzuyu just let her eyebrows meet and gave her a confuse look.
"What do you mean 'What happened to me'?" Tzuyu asked making her Bestfriend smile wider.
"Nothing. It's just I kind'a feel a different aura from you." Tzuyu just can't stop thinking about Myoui Mina, her features are just too perfect for you to not forget.
"What aura? My aura are always the same, Chae." Tzuyu replied her Bestfriend who's been asking why they can't go home together.
"Yeah, yeah. Whatever you say. So, answer my first question. Why can't we go home together?" Chaeyoung asked while doing some aegyo infront of Tzuyu.
"I'm going somewhere."
"Where's that somewhere?"
"N. O. Y. B."
"What? Are you using alien language? Or Yoda language?"
"It means None of your business dwarf."
"Hey, I'm still older than you."
"Yeah, yeah. Whatever you say." Tzuyu said as she copied Chaeyoung tone earlier.
"Fine, I'm going now Yoda, since you'll not going to take me home. Ba-bye." Chaeyoung said as she wave her hand infront of Tzuyu.
"Take care dwarf." Tzuyu said as she made her way into the school's parking lot and saw Mina standing beside her car, as soon as Mina saw Tzuyu walking towards her, Mina gave her a cheekily smile.
Tzuyu can't help but to smile back as wide as Mina gave her.
"Would you mind if we use your car again?" Mina asked while Tzuyu just shake her head and opened the door for her.
"Would you mind if I ask how do you know me?" Tzuyu asked once they got in into the car.
"Well, you're a baseball varsity right? How can I not know you?" Mina said as she let out a small giggle that made Tzuyu's cheeks turned into tinted pink.
"So, Where do you want to go?" Tzuyu ask, she let Mina think for a second as she came up with an answer.
"Jamyeon district. I heard they have the best Ice Cream there." Tzuyu just nodded her head as she started driving.
"So how old are you Tzuyu?" Mina asked while Tzuyu is driving. Maybe just to fill the silent moment of them.
"18." Tzuyu answered.
"Are you always like that?" Mina asked, making Tzuyu steal glance at her.
"What 'like that'?" Tzuyu meet her eyebrows due to her confusion.
"Keeping the conversation short. You seem not a talkative person type." Tzuyu just smiled.
"I am back then." Tzuyu just shrugged her shoulders and turn on her car's radio.
"But then she came into your life and ruin you?" Mina said as she smiled at Tzuyu, Tzuyu felt her chest tighten because she was shock and at the same time she was hurt, because truth really hurts.
Tzuyu gathered all her strength as she gave a fake smile to Mina and turned her attention to the road.
"H-How do you know?" Tzuyu asked, her grip on the steering wheel was more forceful, afraid that tears will come out into her eyes and can't help herself to break more.
"Sana is My Bestfriend, Tzuyu. She always tell me stories about you." Mina said, Tzuyu can't help to be speechless because of what Mina just told her.
"Do you know why did she leave me?" Tzuyu can't help it, she can't help not to cry. When they were talking about Sana, The one who made her life perfect but break it at the same time.
"Tzuyu we're here."
---
"So, What flavor do you like? My treat, since you save me from the rain earlier." Mina said as she pulled Tzuyu into the counter and let her choose flavor.
Tzuyu can't help to be dazed.
'So that's it? You'll give me clues but then, you'll forget what we talk about earlier.' Tzuyu thought.
"Do you have some Ketchup flavor Ice cream?" That brought Tzuyu to the actual world, she looked at Mina who looks like a penguin begging for a ketchup Ice cream.
"Sorry ma'am, but we don't have." The person who works there replied.
"We're just going to take the M&M flavor, In cups please." Mina paid for their Ice Cream as they find a place to seat.
When they find a seat, the both of them started eating their Ice cream silently.
"Oh! About your question earlier, what is it again? The music in the Car was loud earlier." Mina said as she eats a scoop a Ice cream and put it into her mouth cutely.
Tzuyu just shake her head and let her question hanging, she don't want herself to break more right?
"Tzuyu, Please understand Sana. I know she have a decent reason for leaving you." Mina said as she let out her gummy smile.
Tzuyu nods her head at Mina and gave a wide smile as a reply.
"Would you like to come with me to school tomorrow I'll fetch you." It's just slipped off in Tzuyu's mouth, she did not know where that words came from.
"Are you sure? I can just walk from my house to the school." Mina said as she eats another scoop of her ice cream.
"It's Okay, if you don't want." Tzuyu said as she gave a smile to Mina.
"No, it's not that i don't want, but would I be a burden to you? That's what I'm worried about." Mina said, Tzuyu just replied her with a smile.
"So you want to come with me everyday?" Tzuyu asked, Mina just nod her head and hide her blush by cupping her cheeks by her hands, and complaining that it's cold.
---
The days passed and Mina and Tzuyu became more closer, Tzuyu always fetch Mina in her house and they'll both go together to school, and after class Tzuyu will be fetching Mina in her classroom and take her home.
When it's Saturday, she always ask Mina to go out with her, or even help Mina on her school works, Until it became a habit of Tzuyu, every week.
Mina's pov,
.
"You're so silly, why are you even asking me permission to let you love her?" My Best friend Sana was back after staying at Japan for 8 months.
"You know, in case you still love her." I said as I rub my nape, while Sana just patted my head and kiss my cheeks.
"It's Okay Minari, I have Dahyun now." Sana said and shoot a smile to me.
"What if, she still loves you?" I asked, I can't help myself not to worry about it, it seems like I'm just going to put myself into mess.
"Then let's plan something." Sana said and gave me a reassuringly smile.
Tzuyu's Pov,
"Sana?" I was just doing my jogging beside Han River but then I saw a familiar silhouette. I knew it, it was Sana.
"Tzuyu, it's been awhile." Sana gave me hug and pat my shoulder.
"How have you've been?" I've been miserable, Sana I hope you know that.
"I-I've been fine, How about you?" I replied her with a smile, while she just smiled back at me.
"I'm fine, I'm with Dahyun now, remember your cousin?" Sana said as she gave me bright smile, while I'm here standing In front of her trying hard not to let my tears escape my eyes.
"O-oh, That's good. I Hope the both of you last....forever." I can't imagine her with another girl, it breaks me more that the ' another girl' was my cousin.
"Come on let's walk Tzuyu." Sana said, as I followed her.
While we're walking, we both talk about the things happen after the two of us broke up.
"Let's get things straight Tzuyu, even if we're not straight." Sana said as she stop on her tracks and look at me in the eyes.
"Do you still love me?" Sana hits the bulls eye, My tears can't seem to stop as they keep flowing.
"I-If I say yes, would you leave Dahyun for me?" My voice crack, I can't even talk to her straightly.
"Look Tzuyu, This is the thing between us now, I love someone else now, while you're still fixing a broken glass that can't never be fixed. That's our relationship Tzuyu a broken glass that can never be fixed. Remember what you asked Mina before? Why did I leave you. She did not answer it and pretended that she did not hear it because she don't want you to hurt yourself further more." Sana hold my cheeks and wipe my tears for me.
"W-why did you leave me?" Sana remove her hands into my cheeks and hold my hands.
"We're not meant to be, Tzuyu." Sana releases my hand and smile at me.
"That's the reason? Do you know how much I suffer from pain because of you? Do you know that Sana?" I can't hold my anger anymore, I want to shout at her, gave back the pain that she gave to me, but I can't because I love her.
"I'm sorry Tzuyu, if I've done you harm. But if we keep fixing this relationship we would both end up hurting each other, that's why I let go. I don't want to hurt the two of us further more." Sana gave her a peck on her cheeks.
"Please forgive me, it's okay If it's not now, But I hope someday you will do. I'll be going now Bye Tzuyu." All I can see now is Sana's figure walking away from me, I sat on a bench near and silently curses myself for loving her, I cried and cried until my asthma attack once again. My breath was getting harder for I can't really breath easily, I tried to ask for help but then, there's no voice would come out into my mouth, my eyes are getting heavy I can't hold it anymore.
