Music Box & Dancing Doll (SHINee Taemin - Minho)
Dancing Dolls

"Do you-like Jieun?!"

Minho's question instantly made Taemin stunned in place. He even felt as if his heart had stopped for 2 seconds upon hearing it. He really did not expect that his hyung would ask something like this.

"Taemin~ah, answer me! Do you like it?" Ask Minho again.

Taemin himself did not answer. The young man's lips were stiff. He really doesn't know what to answer at the moment. He looked into Minho's eyes deeply.

Taemin realized that his hyung loved Jieun so much and would definitely feel very hurt if he told the truth. But on the other hand, he also does not want to lie to his own feelings if it turns out that he has also fallen in love with the girl.

Seeing Taemin not answering made Minho seem to lose his strength.

"So it's true that you like--"

"Are you crazy?" Taemin's voice suddenly made Minho look at him in surprise.

"Taemin~ah." Minho said he did not believe

"Are you playing me?! How could I like it if I still have Ahra in my heart, hyung."

Taemin said lying made Minho look at him sharply then suddenly smiled widely and quickly put his hand to his sister's neck.

"Mianhaeyo, my dear sister! Don't be angry like that!" Minho cried while strengthening his treatment.

"Aiish~jinjja! Hyuuungg!! Paint! You wanna die, huh?!" Taemin's voice unconsciously made Minho suddenly stop.

"What did you say?! This kid is so brave you threatened your hyung like that!! Iissssh~" Desis Minho as he again draped his neck to Taemin

"Arasseo!! Arasseo hyung!! Mianhae!! Lianhaaee!! Please let me go." Shouting Taemin while chuckling made Minho finally let go.

"Aah~hyung!! You really are so fucking strong! I'm almost out of breath, you know!" Taemin grouse while holding his neck

Minho who saw that instead of regret laughed with satisfaction because he felt he managed to disturb his only brother.

"Yes.iya, sorry!" Said finally. "Oh yes! Tomorrow is a holiday? How about the three of us go to the amusement park?! Haven't we never been out here?! Besides I plan to tell Jieun my feelings tomorrow."

Taemin was again stunned to hear it but quickly changed his expression.

"Have hyung gone mad?! Why are you taking me on your date? I don't want to be a mosquito bully! Just make me ashamed!"

"Who said it was a date? Didn't I tell you I'm going to say it tomorrow?! I just want the three of us to have some fun!" Minho

"Anything tomorrow you have to come! I don't want to make Jieun feel uncomfortable if I'm just the two of her. Understood it! Now sleep!!" Minho said again as he ruffled Taemin's hair then walked out and finally disappeared from behind the door.

Taemin looked flat at the door of his room for quite a while then finally let out a heavy sigh. Suddenly he remembered something.

To be honest, since childhood he had known that his brother was harboring feelings for Jieun.

This is what makes Taemin forced to undo his intention to approach the girl.

Right yeah.

Taemin instead just realized his feelings for Jieun at this moment. Actually, the young man had also liked Jieun since he was a child, even before Minho knew Jieun he had already fallen in love with the girl first.

Upon realizing that Minho had secretly been watching Jieun, plus once again found his hyung delirious and said that he liked Jieun, he was forced to choose to hide his feelings and even began to stay away from the girl.

That's when he met Ahra. A very friendly little girl.

Whenever Taemin felt sad, the girl would always be by his side. Since then Taemin and Ahra have always been together. Ahra's presence seemed to replace Jieun's position in his days. Taemin's thoughts were always on him, making the young man feel that Ahra was the girl he dreamed of.

But apparently fate says something else. When Taemin thought Ahra was everything to him, God took it and made him realize something.

As he tried to close his eyes and finally found Jieun's face that appeared followed by a heartbeat that was not because it seemed to realize the young man that Ahra was only the girl he had been thinking about, while there are others who have always filled his heart.

Ahra may be able to fill her days, but the girl cannot fill Taemin's heart space. Because that space was forever only filled by a Jieun, who was none other than her first love.

Taemin's chest felt tight at this moment making it seem so difficult to breathe.

Could God be playing tricks on him right now? When Minho was so close to his expectations of Jieun, God actually re-emerged the feeling that had been buried deeply by Taemin made him have to go back to lying and hold back his heartache.

Taemin exhaled heavily, seconds later the young man smiled wryly with a look of foresight.

"You have to take good care of him, hyung.."

♥♥♥

This afternoon looks quite bright, unlike yesterday where rain continuously flushed the city of Seoul.

"Oppa.." Jieun said as she opened the door of the house and finally found Minho standing waiting for her. "Mianhaeyo oppa, you must have been waiting for me for a long time right?!"

Minho laughed a little.

"Not really. Your house is right in front of my house anyway, so I can wait for you in peace." His words made Jieun smile. "You're ready, right?!"

Jieun nodded.

"Nde~I'm ready!"

"Good.then come on! Taemin's waiting in the car." They had just left until Jieun suddenly remembered something.

"Wait a minute, I forgot something. Just a moment~" Pekiknya then ran back into the house.

Soon after, the girl returned with a jacket in her hand.

"This I return." He said he gave the red jacket to Minho.

The young man himself was surprised to see it.

"Oh?! This is my jacket"

"You gave it to me when you helped me that night, didn't you!" Jieun made Minho look at him. "I really didn't know that person was you. If only I had known, I would have been able to say thank you sooner. Jeongmal gamsahaeyo, oppa.if there were no you that night, I don't know what it would be like."

Minho did not respond immediately. He stared at Jieun long enough.

"You__or where would I have owned this jacket?"

"Hm? Taemin oppa's. He told me everything." Jieun replied with a smile

"Taemin's? Is that all he told you?!"

Minho's question made Jieun look at him suspiciously.

"Yes. Is there anything else?"

Minho did not answer. The next moment he shook his head with a smile.

"Aniya's. It'sit's nothing. Let's go!" The cry then pulled Jieun's hand towards the car.

♥♥♥

After a long journey they finally arrived at their destination amusement park. Although lately rain often falls, it does not seem to reduce the interest of people to come to the place. In fact, the place is so crowded right now.

One by one the game rides in that place they explore. But honestly, only Minho and Jieun enjoyed it, because Taemin preferred to stay outside as long as they both played. He did not want to disturb the pleasure of the two people, especially Minho had already said that he would express his feelings to Jieun today.

He doesn't want to mess up the plans made by his hyung by being near the girl. More precisely he himself did not want to hear it.

"How about we eat first? After that we just continue playing it?" Minho's proposal when they're resting.

"Hmm.it seems like a good idea. I agree!" Jieun exclaimed happily. Minho looked towards Taemin who only answered a nod by the young man.

They finally arrived at a simple restaurant not far from there. Arriving at the place they immediately ordered food next to the cashier.

"Chogi.does the fries still exist?" Jieun asked one of the maids as he was picking out his order.

The waiter nodded slowly.

"I'm sorry, but the fries just ran out." Regretfully

Jieun's face immediately looked gloomy hearing this. He wished he could eat it today. That's because he really likes French fries. But yeah, how else. He finally smiled at the waiter.

"Cattle, thank you!" He said and received a tray containing his order.

Taemin, who witnessed it, stared at his plate for a moment, and then took a packet of fries and intended to give it to the girl. But his steps stopped when he saw Minho. The young man seemed to have also just finished ordering.

"Hyung.give this to Jieun!" Taemin said while thrusting the potatoes at Minho. The young man himself looked confused.

"Jieun? Why is he?!" Minho asked not understanding

"Give it." Taemin answered briefly and then intended to leave but stopped his steps for a moment. "And don't let him take too much sambal." Add

Minho himself looked at him in wonder. But seeing Jieun he finally approached the girl.

Just as Jieun was intending to return to his seat, someone suddenly placed a package containing french fries on his plate.

"Minho oppa's.." He said a little surprised.

Minho himself looked at him deeply. "Waeil? Don't you like it?"

"Aniya's. I actually like him a lot. But what about you?"

"I don't like potatoes very much.."

"Then why did you order it?" Jieun's question made Minho pause for a moment. Honestly, he didn't know what to answer.

Is it possible that he should say that Taemin was the one who gave it to him?

"That's it. If you like to eat, but if you don't want to, here!" Minho pretended to take it back but was swiftly pulled by Jieun.

"Mianhaeyo oppa.I get it!" Jieun's exclaim quickly made Minho look at him in surprise. "Jeongmal gomawoyo, oppa~"

Minho did not answer. The next second he followed Jieun who was walking towards the sauce retrieval. The young man's eyes rounded when he realized the girl was taking so much chili sauce.

"Jieun~ah.would that not be excessive?" Ask Minho in wonder

"Wae.waeyo?!" Jieun asked while looking at him.

"Yaa~can't you not eat a lot of sambal?!"

"Nat-all?" Jieun's words suddenly stopped. The girl finally remembered something.

"Ah right! Mian.I often forget that I have stomach ulcers. Jeongmal gomawoyo, oppa! Because it reminds me! Come on!" Jieun said, smiling happily, then walking away.

Minho himself looked at Jieun's back which started to drift away. Everything he had just experienced seemed to make him aware of something. The next moment the young man laughed.

So Taemin knows everything?

♥♥♥

After returning to the amusement park, they finally decided to take a ride. Apparently there are also many people who want to use the vehicle, that's why they have to wait first. And after a long time waiting for their turn finally arrived. The three of them had just intended to go inside until Minho suddenly stopped.

"Wait on! My wallet doesn't exist!" His exclamation made Taemin and Jieun look at him in surprise

"How is it possible? Try looking again, hyung!" Taemin said worriedly

"Excuse me.but if you can please get up soon because someone else is waiting in line." The speech of the vehicle officer made the three slightly jerked.

"ah! I remember! Looks like I accidentally left it at the ticket purchase place!" Minho's exclamation suddenly made Taemin and Jieun smile in relief

"really? Then let's go there!" Jieun shouted to leave but was detained by Minho.

"Aiish~you guys.let me take it alone! You guys get on first!"

Taemin looked at him in surprise.

"What do you mean hyung?! Where could we go without you?"

Minho looked at him for a moment. The next moment he widened his eyes.

"ah! How about you guys go in first, I'll buy you a ticket later. That way when I get back I can just come with you guys and play for the second time."

Minho's words made Taemin think for a moment, what his brother said seemed to be okay as well. Finally he nodded and finally entered the ring together with Jieun. After that, Minho rushed to the place to buy tickets.

Lonely quiet. That was the atmosphere that occurred within the ring of Taemin and Jieun. The two have said nothing since.

Just as Taemin turned towards Jieun, he accidentally saw something strange about the girl. And while watching him closely, he finally realized something.

"You..are you okay?!" Taemin asked worriedly

Jieun did not answer directly. Seeing that finally made Taemin ventured to hold his hand. How shocked Taemin was when he touched Jieun's hand. The girl's hands were cold and trembling.

"Ak.I'm pretty scared of heights."

Hearing that instantly made Taemin move from the position he had previously sat in front of now sitting beside Jieun. Taemin looked at Jieun who was still down, the next second he finally clenched the girl's body slowly.

Jieun could feel his heart beating like never before. This was the second time he had felt this way in his life. Now he could no longer deny his own heart. He really has not been able to forget Taemin until now.

"Waeyo..?" His voice suddenly made Taemin let go of his embrace slowly. He looked at Jieun who was still looking ahead.

"Why would a girl like me have to go through something like this?"

"What..you mean..?" Taemin asked worriedly

"Why didn't God let me die with my parents and my eonni? Why let me stay alive with all this burden?" Jieun

"I LIKE YOU!!"

Hearing Jieun's words just now made Taemin instantly stunned in his place.

He looked at the girl in front of him deeply.

"Past and present-I've always liked you. I always admire you when I see you dancing alone in the park and hope to one day be with you. Do you have any idea what it's like if we like people who are liked by our own brothers? Trying to grant her request that you clearly know will only make you hurt. Do you know how hard it is to forget someone we've loved since we were kids?" Jieun said a trembling voice

Taemin himself said nothing. He just looked at the face of the girl in front of him with a pushy look.

"At that time I may not have understood love, but breaking up a relationship that was established since childhood is not as easy as you think, Taemin~si. Do you have any idea what it's like to hide all that stuff for years? I'd probably rather die than continue to feel this kind of pain."

Taemin looked at him in surprise. "You're crazy?! How about the-"

"Who?" Sela Jieun made Taemin's speech come to a halt.

"Who else should I keep here..? Appa.eomma has left me. The trust given by Ahra eonni has also been conveyed to you. Then what else do you think is my reason for staying here..?" He looked at Taemin who was silent in his place.

"Oppa.Can I ask you one thing? This time even if you lie to make me feel happy, I won't get angry. I only want to hear it once from you." Jieun said again. Taemin turned to look at her.

"Have we been together, you ever liked me once?"

Jieun's question made Taemin instantly stifled to hear it. His heart seemed to be sliding out. Why should the girl ask something like this. Why he had to ask something that would obviously only make him hurt.

"Do you think my feelings for Ahra are just a joke?!" Taemin finally said.

"I love Ahra, whether it was then and forever. I never liked you at all. Pardon us. "

Jieun was unable to hold back his tears any longer. Her eyes that had been feeling hot had now dripped droplets of tears which then soaked her tiny cheeks.

The girl regretted her stupid attitude. Why should he ask something that he clearly knows what the answer is. His heart was really sick to hear the direct statement that came from Taemin.

Just then the ranglala they were riding on finally stopped and when the door opened Taemin immediately walked out leaving Jieun who was still in the ring. The young man clenched his hands firmly, his tears dripping softly yet he still walked forward. However, he must not turn around, because if he turns around he is not sure he can survive as he is today. The best thing at the moment was simply leaving Jieun.

Ii'm sorry.

♥♥♥

Taemin stared at the dancing doll in front of him. The shadow of Jieun's face as she cried just now flashed back in her mind. Remembering that momentarily again made his heart ache again. For the umpteenth time he had to make the girl he loved back shed tears because of it.

Just then the door to his room suddenly opened. Minho looked at him sharply from the door. The young man walked over to Taemin.

"Hyung.what are you--"

Taemin did not have time to finish his sentence because Minho had already sent a punch towards him and precisely hit his temple until it fell on the desk study.

Taemin had not stood up Minho again pulled his brother's collar and hit him again until finally fell into the room lamp beside his bed making dancing doll next to him fall to the floor.

"How's?! Are you satisfied? WHY NOT JUST KILL ME, HYUNG!!"

Taemin's snapping makes Minho pull back his shirt and intend to hit his sister until finally stop himself. He gave up his grip on Taemin.

Taemin touched the corner of his lips which were now bleeding. He knew one day his hyung would do this to him sooner or later.

"Do you really like Jieun?!" Ask Minho at last

"No." Taemin's reply quickly made Minho widen his eyes

"In these circumstances you still want to lie?! You're this really..."

"Then what?! If I said that I liked Jieun, what would you do?! Are you going to kill me?! Or are you going to hand it to me?! Give up your first love that you've been waiting for 8 years! WHAT'S THAT LIKE, HUH?!"

Taemin's question made Minho stunned. He had no idea what to answer at the moment. In his heart, he honestly felt hurt knowing that Taemin actually liked Jieun, but honestly, he also did not intend to let the girl go to him. He still hopes to keep the girl.

"I'm going to go." Taemin said suddenly, making Minho look at him in wonder.

"What do you mean?"

"I'm going to get out of here. I'm going back to America. So you don't have to worry, I won't disturb your relationship anymore. Besides my goal here has been achieved, I have found Ahra. Though different from my estimation." Taemin said trying to smile.

"I've booked a plane ticket. Tomorrow I leave early." Taemin said again and then intended to get out of the room until Minho's call stopped his steps.

"Taemin~ah.why are you doing all this?" Minho asked as he turned his back to Taemin

"That's easy. That's because I love you all." Taemin said then walked away from Minho who was still in his place.

♥♥♥

Taemin finally arrived at the airport. The young man deliberately left early in the morning without telling Minho first because he did not want his brother to take him away. All he wants right now is to get out of here. So that he can forget all the problems that exist, and hope to forget about Jieun. Hope so.

The call for a flight to the United States has now sounded. Taemin finally got up from his place. For a while he looked around him, he remembered when he was a child when he had to go to America, Ahra and his exit accompanied their departure at the airport. At that moment he could realize that Jieun was crying from a distance.

Although the girl tried to hide her cries, Taemin could honestly see her clearly. The young man even desperately wanted to approach Jieun but was forced to undo his intentions when he saw Minho who had approached him first. At that time he did not even say goodbye to Jieun before leaving and it seemed like this time it would happen again. He had to leave without saying goodbye even without seeing the girl first.

Taemin looked at the departure gate that was now in front of his eyes. The young man exhaled slowly and then smiled broadly. The next moment he walked in.

I hope someday we'll meet again, Jieun~ah.

♥♥♥

Jieun who was still sound asleep suddenly woke up when he heard his phone ringing.

"Hello.." He said half conscious.

"Oh?! Mianhae..I disturbed your sleep well?!" Said the person across the phone who was none other than Minho.

"Anyo, oppa. What's the matter with calling me this early in the morning?" Ask Jieun

Minho was silent for a moment. "Jieun~ah's chat..Taemin will be gone today."

"Whatchu mean? Where is Taemin oppa going?" Ask Jieun again. This time he sat on his bed

"He's going back to America. And don't want to come back here again."

Minho's words instantly resuscitated Jieun completely.

"Mwo..mworago?" Jieun said as if in disbelief at what she heard just now

"Jieun~ah.there's something I have to tell you."Jieun did not reply but Minho continued his words.

"The red packet you gave me, it was mine. But the one who helped you that night, wasn't me. Except Taemin." Minho's words made Jieun glued to his place

"What do you mean?"

"That night Taemin intended to go to the Mini market, but because his sweater was dirty so he was forced to borrow my jacket. When I got home I asked where my jacket was and he finally told me everything. But at that time he really did not know that the girl was you. And also.This one might sound normal to you. But I just want you to know, last night the guy who actually told me to give you fries was Taemin. The boy even told me to remind you not to take too much sauce. Because honestly at the time I really didn't know you had stomach ulcers." Minho

"Then.why did he say the opposite to me?" Jieun asked not understanding

"That's because she likes you, Jieun~ah." Jieun's heart seemed to melt when he heard Minho's words. The girl hoped she had just misheard it.

"Mw..mwo? Don't joke, oppa. He clearly said that..."

"He was lying intentionally. The boy did it on purpose because he wanted to unite you with me."

Jieun increasingly did not understand. "Bringing together?"

"Color she knows that I like you, Jieun~ah." Jieun was again glued to his place. He doesn't even know what to respond to at the moment.

"That's right. I like you, Lee Jieun. And that's what I've been doing since I first met you. When Taemin first introduced you to me, that's when I was so happy to meet you. I always wish I could be someone who meant something to you. I always try to be around you to keep you company. At that moment I realized, your gaze was only directed at Taemin. At first I thought that one day I could change your mind and turn to me, but it turned out that my guess was wrong. Now it's not just your eyes, but your heart is completely covered with one Taemin and there's no room left for anyone else." Minho

"Oppa.me..." Jieun was unable to continue his sentence. He really didn't expect any of this. All this time he thought that Minho only thought of him as a sister, but it turned out that his assumption was wrong. The young man loved her.

"Pursue him, Jieun~ah.." Minho suddenly said. "Don't let Taemin go. Tell him you need him. Never let this opportunity just disappear. A second chance may be there, but not everyone is lucky to get it. Because it's after him..I believe you, Jieun~ah." Minho shouted from across the phone and then cut off the connection.

Without wasting any more time Jieun ran out, the girl did not even have time to change clothes. All he had in mind right now was Taemin. He had to stop the young man before it was too late.

♥♥♥

Jieun finally arrived at the airport. When he got there, he immediately ran here and there. Some places he had visited but he still could not find the figure of Taemin. When the girl started to panic, she suddenly remembered something. He quickly ran to the information room.

When Jieun got there, he immediately asked the officer for permission so that he was allowed to use the information mic to call someone. Initially the information section did not agree to this but because the girl continued to beg even to her knees they finally agreed.

"Taemin oppa..are you still out there?! If you really hear me, please come to the source of this voice. Please don't go! I need you here..Don't leave me like I used to. Saranghaeyo, oppa..."

Jieun ended his sentence. He is unable to say anything more. This is the last road he can take. He does not care about people who say it strange because it has revealed his heart through information speakers.

"Excuse me, I want to ask..plane with flight to America has it left?!" Ask the information officer.

The officer was seen checking his computer. A second later he smiled as he nodded slowly. "The plane left half an hour ago."

Jieun's body instantly suffocated when he heard the officer's words. It was lost his hope to stop the young man. Everything seems to be useless.

"Gamsahamnida." Jieun said as he lowered his head slowly at the people in the information section. With a gontai move Jieun walked back without direction. The next second the girl fell on the floor. It's over, and now his last hope is gone. The opportunity Minho said he was now unable to defend. Taemin is back in America. The tears now flowed back down the girl's cheeks. His heart really hurt considering everything that happened.

"Wake up!" Someone's words instantly stopped Jieun's sobbing. The voice he was so familiar with was now clearly heard in his ears. Instead he found someone standing in front of him, and how surprised he was when he realized that the person was none other than Taemin. The young man did not leave.

Jieun who saw that instantly got up from his place and directly hugged Taemin's body, making the young man startled to release his luggage.

"Jieun~ah's.."

"Stupid!! Do you know how worried I was?! I thought I wouldn't see you again! I thought you really left me!!" Pekik Jieun while smacking Taemin's back. "Please don't go! Don't leave me alone like I used to, oppa.." His issue still hit Taemin's back.

Suddenly Taemin released the girl's body and then held her hands together. He stared at Jieun's face which was now right in front of him. The next second the young man leaned over his body and directly kissed Jieun's lips.

Jieun who tried to release his body was unable to do so because Taemin held both hands together, finally relented and let Taemin do it. Some people were now staring at them, but Taemin did not care about it at all.

After a while Taemin finally let go of his kiss.

"You're talking too much!" Taemin's words made Jieun look at him

"Mwo?"

"Aren't you ashamed to reveal your heart's content through informational speakers?!" Taemin looked at him in amazement

Jieun shook his head slowly. "Anyo. At that time all I thought about was how I could find you. Especially when I asked the officer about the plane departure..Uh! that's right!!" The girl suddenly remembered something. "How did you get here? Didn't the plane leave half an hour ago?"

Taemin looked at him flatly. "That's what I'm thinking about right now. At the time of intending to enter the sudden departure gate I could not find my ticket. Though I clearly remember putting it in my bag last night." His words made Jieun follow her gaze.

That was when Taemin's phone suddenly shook. A sms was received.

"Oh?! From Minho hyung.." Taemin then opened the message followed by Jieun beside him

As you read this you might have been together with Jieun right?! Good then! Taemin~ah, you don't have to go back to America, because now I'm already heading there.

"MWO?!!" Taemin and Jieun stared at each other. Then continue reading the message.

Don't be surprised! Especially feeling guilty. I didn't go because I wanted to avoid you. I left because I missed Appa and Eomma. And will be back next week.

Taemin~ah, mianhae.actually since a long time ago I have known that you like Jieun.

Taemin and Jieun were again surprised to see the contents of the message. They both stared at each other for a moment and then read back to them.

I know that you deliberately turned away from her because you realized your hyung likes her. But instead of giving up I just kept pretending I didn't know about it. If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have had to get hurt for 8 years. I'm sorry, Taemin~ah. Stop lying to yourself from now on. Tell me what's in your heart, not just what's on your mind. Thinking of others is good, but you also have to take care of your heart, don't let it hurt. Because when your heart is hurt, there are other hearts that will also be hurt.

There's one more thing I want to tell you. The dancing doll was actually not from Ahra, but from Jieun. You can ask him directly. Uh! And also.about that ticket! Mianhae.hyung deliberately took it so you wouldn't come to America. Kekeke~ :P

Taemin laughed and dropped his phone. The next instant tears suddenly dripped down his cheeks. He did not expect that Minho had known his feelings for Jieun all along.

Jieun who saw Taemin instantly wiped the young man's tears with his hands. The young man has not changed. He knew, as hard and cold as a Taemin attitude he would cry when touched by the words of his loved ones.

Taemin held onto Jieun's hand which was wiping his tears. The young man looked at Jieun for quite a while then took out a dancing doll from inside his bag.

Jieun who saw that instantly smiled happily. "Oh?! You still keep it?!!" Jieun girang said. When he realized what he was doing just now, he was silent for a moment.

"Why silence? So right, if the one who gave this to me before going to America was you? And not Ahra?!" Taemin asked trying to make sure

Jieun himself looked surprised to hear that. He knew Minho must have told the truth to the young man. And there's no reason to lie anymore. He also nodded slowly.

"Then why did you tell him to say this from Ahra?!"

"That's because I'm afraid you won't accept it if you know it's my gift. Besides, I don't know if it's you either..." Jieun stopped his sentence

A brief kiss just suddenly landed on Jieun's tiny lips made the girl widen her eyes in surprise.

"Ap..what are you doing?!" He said stammered

"That's my gift to you. You know, loving someone secretly may sound selfish, but sometimes it is only with such selfishness that we can maintain one's smile. " Taemin said with a big smile.

Jieun looked at him inside. He understood what Taemin meant. Because what he had been doing all this time was actually the same as what the young man had done. Hiding their own feelings, for the sake of those they care about.

Taemin then pulled Jieun in his arms.

"Mianhaeu. Right now I can't give you anything. So I can only give it to you. But I promise you, someday I'll give you the most special gift. Because it's still beside me."

"Catastrophe. Hugging you like now is already the most beautiful gift for me." Jieun said smiling as she returned Taemin's embrace.

"really?! Then never let go! Wherever we go, we have to cuddle like this!!" Canda Taemin then walked over and over while continuing to hug Jieun. He himself could only laugh a little at what this young man before him was doing.

- The music box that started the breakup, but the dancing doll is the one that reunites and ends this story.
