My Own Battle...?

Chapter 17(Final)

Byeol POV

I was the first one to wake up today but i was trapped because Dayeol and Chanyeol were hugging me. I slowly slip out of their grasp and I look at the others. I check the time on my phone. 7:30 am. Our fundraiser starts at 9:30.

I walk upstairs and sit on the couch.

"There is a chance, that I may die today" I whisper quietly to myself. I pull my knees up to my chest and bury my face in them.

At least my wishes came true. Everyone is sort of supportive. No more crying. And the best part is is that Daeyeol Oppa and Chanyeol oppa are starting to get along. Everyone is happy and smiling.

"Byeol?" I look up and see Sehun standing there.

"Good morning" I gently smile.

"Why are you crying?" He asks.

"I'm not. It's because I yawned that's all" I lie.

"Okay then. So are you excited for today?" He asks me as he sits next to me.

"Very" I sigh.

"You checked in with your doctor right?" He asks.

"Yeah. He said its okay" I lie.

I hate this. I hate lying to everyone. It makes me feel disgusting. Dirty. Like trash.

"I wish you girls good luck" he says. I look at him and he looks at me. We stare into each other's eyes.

"Thank you" I say.

We sit in silence for a little while. We start to laugh a bit at the awkward silence. I look at him and he does the same to me. I look deep into his dark brown eyes. We slowly lean in. I close my eyes.

"I'm sorry" he suddenly says. I open my eyes and see him away from me.

"For?"

"We can't do this. We're 4 years apart. Your 16. I'm 20" he says. I frown at him.

"But does age really matter?" I ask and he looks at me.

"Well, yeah... I think..." I look at him and look away.

"People should only love other people for their personality. Not their looks or wealth. Age shouldn't matter either.... I love you" I say.

He looks at me. He leans in and kisses me on my forehead.

"Please stay alive for our future" he says and heads back downstairs.

"I'm sorry" I say quietly to myself, again. I get out a piece of paper. I guess this is like my goodbye note.

A few hours later

Tanya POV

We're at the fundraiser. Surprisingly there is a lot of people.

"I didn't expect there was gonna be this many people" I say to the girls.

"How much did you expect?" Melody asks.

"I dunno. Maybe about 20-40 people. Not like 200 people. There's probably even more than that!" I say.

"I guess we inspired everyone" Hyewon says.

"Ready girls?" Byeol asks. We all put our hands together.

"Let's go!" we shout and run out there.

The music starts to play and we just start dancing. The moment we started to dance, the crowd got louder than before.

For some reason, I'm not nervous. I don't think any of the other girls are either. We all look at each other. We smile. Laugh. And dance. Just like before.
