JIYOO's POV

I wiped out my tears again. I don't know what to say. I can't think of anything. I missed him. Three months since then, I still can't get over him. Although I know it's for the sake of us both, but still I can't easily letting him go.

I tried to make myself as busy as I can so that I don't have any time to think of him. I tried to focus on my study or hanging out with my friends every time I don't have class. But when I go back home, lied on my bed, I can't help but think of him.

One day when I'm resting in between my class. I promised to meet Haneul. Since we're not in the same faculty and we're busy with our own class, I don't have time to meet her as much as usual. Not too long she came and sit beside me.

"How are you?" she asked.

"Busy as usual." She knew that's not the answer that she wanted. So I smiled at her. "I'm fine." No, I'm not.

She sighed. After we talked about how was our day these days, she took out her phone and show me something. When I saw her phone, it was a music player with a familiar name on it. Day6. I looked at her.

"Listen to it." Before I can answer her, she cut me off. "Just listen, okay?"

I sighed and took her phone and put the headphone. Letting Go. That's the title.

I got something to say, let's meet up

Now we sit in silence, facing each other

I keep thinking in my head

Should I say this or not

Although I don't want to

I started to remember the last day I met him. We both just sit down on the bench in silence. No one say any words. I feel my heart started to hurt again. But I keep listening to the song.

I'd been holding onto you for so long

But now I must let go

There's nothing I can do for you

It's the only way to make you happy

So I let go, let go, let go

So you can smile someday

So you can be happy

How can I be happy if you're not by my side, Kang Brian?

I remember our good times

The days of laughter and fun

Memories ever so precious

Fill up inside of me

Although I don't want to

My tears started to fill up when I heard that familiar voice. That deep voice of him. My memories of him started to fill up on my mind.

I'd been holding onto you for so long

But now I must let go

There's nothing I can do for you

It's the only way to make you happy

So I let go, let go, let go

Holding onto you will just cause you no good

I know, so I struggle to get you out

The times we had together, our dear memories

I let go, let go, let go

So that you can smile someday

Again, the familiar voice. I listened carefully to his rap part.

Ah, let go, let go

The bright future we sought together

I know, I know

We can no longer wish for a happy ending

Like the land hardens after the rain

Pain is only temporary

Someday you will meet someone who can make you happier

That's the kind of love that you deserve

I got to say goodbye right now

That's when it hit me. He let me go. I buried my face on my hand and the tears just keep flowing from my eyes. Haneul hug me and pat my back. I just cried my heart out.

I'd been holding onto you for so long

But now I must let go

There's nothing I can do for you

It's the only way to make you happy

So I let go, let go, let go

Holding onto you will just cause you no good

I know, so I struggle to get you out

The times we had together, our dear memories

I let go, let go, let go

So that you can smile someday

I keep on crying even after the song is over. And Haneul didn't even say a word too, she just hugged me. After a few minutes. I separated myself from her.

"I'm okay.." I paused for a moment. "I'm gonna be okay."

Haneul smiled and hug me again for the last time.

Right, I'm letting you go now, Brian.
