when a heart breaks, it doesn't break into equal pieces, yoochun says.

there's one piece that always a little bigger, the one that says hey, there are other fish in the sea, it's all for the best, that person wasn't really perfect for you anyways, otherwise why wouldn't you have lasted? and then there's the second piece (it has to be smaller, it always has to be smaller) that says it was true love, we were star-crossed lovers, we could have made it work if we tried a little harder, if i hadn't and you hadn't, we could've, should've made it to the end.

changmin looks at him thoughtfully and answers.

i think there's a third piece too.

yeah?

yeah. the third piece that slips and falls through the cracks while you're trying to put everything back together and gets lost. that's the piece that makes sure your heart can't ever really be whole again.
