The Switch

Chapter 27

Amber walked up onto the stage and sat down in front of the piano. Everyone became quiet. Sweet sounds started emanating from the piano as her hand glides over the keys.

Here I am, standing close to you and it’s still so far away

So many times I tried to say but my heart was afraid

Look at you is all that I can do. Like a silly girl I stare

Cause you might leave me when I ever feel what my heart is really feeling

Ba-thump. Ba-thump.

Amber was sitting under the spot light singing her heart out. Why does seeing you like this make me so sad? Who are you singing that song to?

If I could just say the words, all the secrets in my heart and in my soul you’ll hear will you take me in your arms or let me go. On

lovely days will they just fade like whispers in the wind.

if I could just say the words, all the secrets in my heart and in my soul you’ll hear can’t you see the love I hide slip through my eyes

This silly girl’s so scared she just can’t say "I love you"

Here I am, holding on to fate. What we have may never change

Cause you might leave me when I ever feel my lips will seal the love I’m hiding

If I could just say the words, all the secrets in my heart and in my soul you’ll hear will you take me in your arms or let me go. On

lovely days will they just fade like whispers in the wind

If I could just say the words, all the secrets in my heart and in my soul you’ll hear can’t you see the love I hide slip through my eyes

This silly girl’s so scared she just can’t say "I love you"

If I could just say the words, all the secrets in my heart and in my soul you’ll hear can’t you see the love I hide slip through my eyes

This silly girl’s so scared she just can’t say "I love you"

I didn’t know that tears were rolling down my face until Donghae reached over and wiped it away with his thumb. He gently smiled at me before taking my hand in his and kissing it.

“I love you, babe.” He said softly. I just sobbed in his embrace. I glanced over at Amber who was watching us. She wiped a tear away before smiling gently then turning away.

Everyone clapped when she rejoined the group.

“I didn’t know that you were that talented!” Sunny unnie exclaimed. Amber just smiled sweetly to her.

“Am, why don’t you play at our wedding. I’m sure Krystal would love to hear it.” Donghae asked. She looked hesitant but after much pleading from Donghae she gave in. “Thanks, baby sis.” Donghae ruffled her hair. She looked at me, sadness in her eyes, before turning away to talk with the rest of the group. Why do you look so sad, Am?

“Amber, do you love anyone? That song that you played wasn’t just a song; it was your real emotions.” Jessie unnie asked. Everyone nodded in agreement to Jessie unnie’s remark. Amber nodded her head.
