"This isn't a movie, with the happy endings we like
The beautiful endings don't exist
This isn't a drama that we enjoyed
When I open my eyes after counting to three, tears still fall"
-Tehwan, How did it happen
Even if I'm standing in front of you, you see past me and see only her. You see only her, you want only her. Everybody sees that except her. I have to hold myself, have to comfort my own self. Tell me you love me. I sincerely wish that. Let those wonderful words wash over me, warm me up with them. Our friends tell me sorry behind your back. They pity me. They know of my deep feelings for you. Why won't you acknowledge them? Look at me! I'm silently screaming. Please hear me.
Your screams come in the form of mews. I search for the source of them and found you. A meek girl curled up in her carved heart. Did you damage your nails trying to dig yourself this hole? How many hours, days, weeks, months did you wait for someone to find you? For him to find you? He'll never search for you. He sees only her, the redhead enamored with somebody else. He is an idiot. Then again, all humans are idiots. You distrust me. You stare at my hand. Come with me. I reach out once more.
I smile indifferently in front of you. I greet you yet I only see her. Her auburn hair brushes her cheek in the wind. My heart fills with excitement at the simple sight. I'm sorry, I want to say to you but I only see her. I can never love you. Your love for me is only a mere crush. You only liked me for my looks. Isn't it true? I want to say all this to you. Here she comes! Please excuse me. Yes, I know of their disapproving looks behind my back.
Please, I pray. Let him notice me just once. I walk to his school just hoping to catch a glimpse of him. I pretend that I'm here to see my big brother. Where is he? I scream in my head. Allow me to see him just once. My brother's friend come up to me, smiling. I slip on my angel mask on for him, for everybody. The one I want to see my true face, the him that harbors a gentle side. Somehow, I'll release that gentle side. He'll smile for me, only me.
I found her huddled in the empty classroom, crying. I slid the door closed. Without a sound, I watch the spectacle passively. Her yellow bow catches my eye. No, the glint of silver captures my attention. Her flesh is torn at the wrist, a tiny river of blood flowing down her arm. It stained her uniform skirt. Humans really were idiots after all. Honestly, you entice me to be an idiot, too. I'm not him but I'll show you how much I can be human. Idiocy in the form of the feeling you humans call love. I'll try though originally I only came here to tell you there's no such thing.
No such thing what?
I merely want to tell you he'll never say I love you. Those three words are not reserved for you. His lips don't long for yours. His love for you is nonexistent. There's no such thing. No such thing. The title of the song you sang once.
The song I sang. This will be my last memory. I tried my hardest to impress him that day. No such thing, I sang. Fairytales with the happy endings. There's no such thing. No such thing. No such thing. Like a human, I acted like an idiot and refused to believe the words.
