Taeyeon looks at Jonghyun from afar. She watches over him like a guardian angel.
She takes a step towards him, she touches his shoulder and she pats him, while they intertwine their fingers together in a gesture that expresses love, protection and respect for each other.
“Taeyeon-noona” it’s what Jonghyun says to her. He smiles at her.
“Jonghyun-ah” it’s what Taeyeon says to him. She smiles at him.
He turns, he glances over her one last time and he’s gone.

She wakes up with a start, finding herself enveloped in the dim light of her chamber, and she’s alone.
She knows it was a dream. It's a memory that makes her suffer. She cries out all of the pain.
"Jonghyun-ah" Taeyeon whispers his name softly through the sobs, then she places a hand on the left side of her chest and she lays her palm where her heart beats, by reminding her that she's alive in a world without him.
The lights in the room are too bright, made of argent, and they blind her. They're radiant, fulgent and brilliant. Shiny knives.
