Too Late (ft. Chanyeol of EXO)

"Aish! Park Chanyeol! Get away from me!" you exclaimed as he ran after you down the corridor, through the school garden, until you got caught by him at the school pavilion. Unfortunately there was no one there to help you away from him.

"Yah Park Chanyeol! What do you want from me anyway?!" you struggled to get out of his tight embrace but failed.

Chanyeol was a delinquent who had many fangirls, also he always seemed to pick on you and only you. Your friends always teased you about him liking you but you brushed it off. You saw how he would use girls and then throw them away like wet tissues when he got bored of them. This was one reason why you hated him. Okay, so hate might be too harsh. But still, you dislike him, a lot.

"(y/n) I like you a lot okay!" his ears turned red, but he continued, "I bully you because I like you, I use those girls to gain your attention okay..." he trailed off, then put his head on yours, holding you tight.

You blushed, flattered, but still you do not believe him. You have heard him say similar words to many girls before. 'What a loser, using the same tricks over and over again.' you thought as you finally managed to break free.

"Stop lying, just go away. Leave me alone." you said, tired of his 'excuses' to get you to like him back. Surprisingly, he let you go easily, and you left him there alone, him feeling dejected and you feeling triumphant.

The next few days, you saw Chanyeol with many different girls, as if his meeting with you never existed and he didn't get rejected.

'Such a playboy, good thing I didn't trust him.' you thought as you smiled to yourself and continued with your day. Luckily for you, he did not do anything to you at all. Even when both of you would bump into each other, like literally bump, Chanyeol would just make his way off instead of picking on you. This continued for a few weeks, but although you were supposed to feel relieved, you felt a bit uneasy and weird, as if you were uncomfortable without his teasing, as if you were craving for his attention.

One day, Chanyeol didn't come to school. You thought that it was normal, because he sometimes skipped school. However, while walking home alone after school, one of his gang mates, Baekhyun, stopped you and told you to follow him. Even though you said no, he dragged you by your wrists tightly to his car and drove off towards the hospital. Once you reached the hospital, you were shocked to find out that Chanyeol had last stage cancer that would kill him soon, too soon.

You rushed to his room, to his bedside. You sat down and you asked him why did he not tell you about his condition. He said he did not want you to worry about him, and that he did not want you to be his girlfriend just because you pitied him.

Upon hearing that, your heart broke. Turns out that, he really liked you a lot; yet you did not trust him. Instead, you pushed him away, caused him misery, and now, he's dying. Yet you cannot do anything to save him.

Just when you made up your mind to accept him and try this new relationship; when you were about to confess your love to him, Chanyeol whispered, "Jagiya, saranghae." and closed his eyes. The machines suddenly beeped and blinked, his heart rate was going down. You panicked and pressed the button multiple times to call for the nurse and doctor, but they were too late. You were too late. Park Chanyeol flatlined and died on May 31 2014, at exactly 17:59:35.

// May 31 2015, 17:59:35 //

It has been exactly one year ever since he passed away. Exactly five years since your dad passed away. It seemed to you that everyone you failed to cherish died on the same day, same time.

// June 1 2015, 15:47:56 //

You were found in the bathroom with an empty bottle of sleeping pills and a knife stuck to your delicate pale wrist. The forensics team declared that you had overdosed on the sleeping pills before stabbing your wrist. They pronounced your death time being May 31 2015, at exactly 17:59:35.
