"So... you... we..."
"Yes. Mianhae, but we're already over"
Stupid. The 'break up' word is usually said by boys, right?
"But, break up? Are you sure, Choi Jinri? Have you thought about it?"
"Taemin, if I'm just kidding then I won't ask you to go here and talk about this."
He sighed then stared at his (soon-to-be) ex-girlfriend, Choi Jinri or Sulli. It's just some minutes ago they sat and started their conversation, and she'd asked to break up?
Well, the world must be crazy right now.
"What's your reason?" asked him
"I'm tired. I'm sick of dealing with your assignments and schedules," Sulli's voice trembled. "You always denied your promises. If it's just once or twice maybe I'll forgive you. But this is already reaching my limit!"
"But you know how's our life as an entertainer, right?"
"If you're busy then why did you make promise to me? Why did you ask me to go out? Do you know, the last time you asked me, I waited at our waiting point for almost 3 hours, even I ditched from my practice!" she bursted. "I'm tired, Lee Taemin! Jeongmal! I'm sick of your sorry words and hundreds reasons!"
Sulli got up and walked out from the cafe, leaving Taemin who was still dumb-founded until a waiter came to his table and gave him a piece of paper.
"Your bill, mr," said him. Taemin shook his head and got his wallet from his pocket, then took some money from it.
"Take the changes," said him while walking out from the cafe.
"Sheesh, that Choi Jinri!" he muttered on the way to his dorm.
-----------------
Taemin banged the bedroom's door, made his hyung shook their heads together.
"What happened with that kid?" asked Minho
"Dunno. Maybe just another fight. That weird couple," Key shrugged his shoulder and walked to the kitchen.
"He said that because he missed Nicole," Jonghyun whispered.
"KIM JONGHYUN! I heard what you said before!" Key yelled with a knife in his hand, ready to be throwed to Jonghyun
"YA! ANDWAE! KIM KIBUM ANDWAEEEEEEE!"
Meanwhile, in the bedroom, Taemin rolled under the bedcover with his phone on his hand. He pressed the same number for this last 5 minutes, trying to call the number's owner. As what he expected before, it failed. Looks like she turned off her phone to avoid him.
"Aish! Why am I stressed out like this?" he scratched his head.
"Ya! Babo Jinri-ya! Just answer this call won't you?"
-----------------
It's already a week from TaeSul's break up and still, nothing happened. No press conference, paparazzi and reporters that asking for clarification, or something like that. From the beginning they didn't announce their relationship, only their groups' members and managers who knows
And now, how about Taemin?
Sometimes his hyungs caught him daydreaming and sighed deeply. It's really clear that he didn't want to end his relationship with Sulli
And Sulli?
She's still being her ownself. Her onnies and dongsaeng nothing went wrong with Sulli. Even Krystal said that she is getting more cheerful day by day
"Ne Oppa, Sulli Eonni's face is really bright these days," said Krystal when she went to SHINee's dorm (of course for another 'meeting' with Minho) "She checked her phone for almost every a minute, then grinned like she's crazy,"
Of course, this fact made Taemin went more depressed
"Is she... she..." he murmured, made MinStal stared at him in pity
"She said it's from Chansung Oppa..." Krystal whispered. Actually she prefers TaeSul to ChanSul (on the other side, she just want to have someone who accompanied her to SHINee's dorm. It used to be Sulli, but not for this time)
"Minho Oppa, is Taemin Oppa that depressed?" asked her to Minho
"Almost every night he mumbled to himself. This week his face was really-really in the worst rate, the ugliest one. His phone never left his hand. Or daydreaming," answered Minho. "Really, he's lost,"
"Aish..." Taemin mumbled. "That girl, really..."
"Yeah, like that," Minho nudged Krystal to Taemin's direction
"Poor Taemin Oppa," she sighed
Suddenly Taemin got up and walked to the bedroom, left MinStal who shook their heads together
-----------------
Love drives us crazy
Or should I say, Love drives ME crazy, Taemin thought
He's still busy with his after-brokenheart-things, no other than curling up like a ball and cursing like no end
He didn't notice his hyungs' pity stare, that glanced at him with in-just-some-moments-again-you'll-be-crazy looks in their eyes
He scrunched his forehead. Why does he have to be that confused because of this?
What's special with Choi Jinri, the eye-smile queen of f(x), that makes SHINee's lead dancer Lee Taemin depressed like this?

SBS Gayo Daejun, 101229
After the Maknae Show, Taemin pulled Sulli who was just get off from the stage
"Ya! Lee Taemin!" she screamed and tried to pull her hand from his, but Taemin's grip got thightened
"Just shut up and follow me," said him with the most flat tone he has. He dragged her to a place where nobody passed by
"What are you doing?" Sulli yelled. He sighed
"We need to talk about..."
"About what? Our relationship? We've finished it at that cafe!"
"We? Not 'we', but 'you'!"
"So you brought me here just to make me change my words?" she asked. "No way,"
"You're kidding aren't you?"
"Taemin, how much I've said that I'm not kidding?"
"But at least we could talk about it first!"
"We HAVE talked about it yesterday. So, can I go now?" she glared at him coldly. He lost his world and nodded silently
-----------------
Days have passed and nothing changed. Krystal came again to SHINee's dorm with another news -- that Sulli's already officially dating with Chansung
Taemin's behaviour is getting weird. He doesn't want to eat, practice, and so on. His hyungs are getting worried and also frustated
"Come on Taeminnie, just go and find another girl!" said Jonghyun
"Do you think it's that easy?" Taemin scoffed
"Yesterday I heard that Bae Suzy from Miss A likes you!" said Key. Taemin who has lost his patience threw his pillows to his 2 hyungs, made them ran away from the bedroom
"Taeminnie, I know that now you're in a difficult situation, but at least you have to eat!" Onew sighed. "Or else this drumstick will kick and hit youuuu~!"
Minho who was watching tried to hold his laughter because of his leader's childishness
-----------------
And it's already a month. Taemin's back to his own self -- The childish, much-talking, and innocent Lee Taemin. But there's something different from him -- in a positive way
Taemin's getting more mature
Today they'll have a performance at Music Bank, and f(x)'s also there as one of the guest stars
And (un)fortunately, Taemin met Sulli at the front of f(x)'s waiting room
"Erm, Sulli-ssi, can we have a talk?" asked him
"Allright, but don't try to push me," she said
"Okay. Just stay quiet and listen to what I say," he thought for a while.
"It's already a month from our break-up. Wait, don't cut me. Well, I admit that in this one month I can't stop thinking about you (A/N girl? xD). But some days ago I realized that I had no point to keep my feelings for you," he stopped for a while. "Yes, I'm stupid for not getting over your decision. But don't worry, now your ex-boyfriend is already getting over it,"
Sulli was still keeping her mouth shut, waiting for what will he say
"I think that's all. Gomawo, Sulli-ssi. I just want to make you know about this," he bowed at him and started to walk to his own waiting room
"Ah, and one more thing. If you want to start it from the beginning again, just talk to me. Arasseo? Annyeong, Sulli-ssi,"
