CHAPTER 13
The youngest amongst the boy group 2PM ran towards a room in an apartment building and burst the door open. He scanned the quiet yet tense apartment in such a rush form. He cursed under his breath when he heard voices in one of the room inside. He walked slowly to the nearest door and peeked on it a little but accidentally slammed it when he saw the two people that he was looking for.
“Or what?!”
“Or I’ll jump,”
Wooyoung gasped and gripped the older guy’s arm, pulling him backwards. Taecyeon eyed him slightly before he jerked his arm away and concentrated at the view in front of him. In the other hand, Tiffany felt all nervous and scared. She looked down the window and was about to jumped but looked straight to Wooyoung who was in front of her - her gaze met the younger guy’s for a mere second.
“Back off Taec!”
“Really? Do you even know what you’re trying to tell me?”
The younger boy behind Taecyeon gulped hard but the view in front of him sent more fear through his body. He wanted to drag Taecyeon out of here so he can save the older guy from the police, but it seemed like Taecyeon wouldn’t listen to him any time soon.
“Hyung, just back off already and get outta here quickly,”
“Shut up!” He looked at his side. “I don’t want to let her go and lose her anymore!”
“Look! She’s gonna jump if you don’t back off! Just move backwards and she’s gonna fine!”
Taecyeon gritted his teeth before looking away. “You’re not helping,” He sighed, trying to build his composure again. “Fany, come here. Honey,”
Tiffany shook her head and looked outside the window, predicting how much it would hurt if she jumps from there and land harshly on the paved ground. Taecyeon took steps to approach Tiffany which caused her to panic.
“Don’t even think about doing that, please? It would hurt,”
“I’m serious, Taec. Go away now or I’ll jump!”
Tiffany held onto the window tightly as her body trembled with her own fear. Taecyeon stopped midway and looked down before she heard him chuckle a few times. He looked up at Tiffany, a sly smirk playing on his face, as he put his hands up in surrender while taking steps backward.
“Hyung… come on,” the younger boy behind him gripped his wrist.
It was when Taecyeon was about to spat harshly at Wooyoung when the police’s sirens echoed through the street. The three of them looked outside at the same time as the siren lights twirled from afar. Taecyeon gulped hard and his face grew pale with horror as he stumbled out the door with Wooyoung following behind him. Tiffany looked at the two boys slightly and heaved a sigh of relief. She closed her eyes as she sat on the cold floor limply.
Finally, she was safe.

“she’s on the 3rd floor”
I ran all my might to the 3rd floor when I heard the walkie-talkie by the officer next to me sounded. I didn’t bother using the elevator anymore and moreover, never bothered to think of how much I’ve ran, even the sweating and panting my body feels. All I want see was Tiffany because I miss her so much. I don’t care if she had rejected me.
All I care for is her.
I pushed the door open with some of the group of policemen following behind me, Taeyeon and Sunny also running not far from me, holding hands. I looked to the right corridor where some of the officers entered and exited the room. I kept running, and running until I stopped at the front door. I held my breath when I saw Tiffany sitting on one of the couch with her head on one of the officer’s shoulder. She was closing her eyes when the doctor checked on her. I smiled and at that same time tears had already flown down my cheeks.
“Tiffany…” I rushed to her.
The doctor smiled at me before he stood up and patted Tiffany’s head before walking away. I nodded my head to the police officer who lent his shoulder to Tiffany and he smiled as I replaced his position with mine. Tiffany hadn’t opened her eyes before I slipped my hand onto her waist and the other on her neck, pulling her closer to me as I buried my face onto her neck.
“J-Jessi?”
I smiled in between the sobs and tightened my grip on her, my tears soaking her t-shirt.
“Don’t go, don’t go. S-stay… stay with me, please…”
“Jessi…”
She embraced me back and for the first time after so long, I felt so safe, so secure and I felt loved. She was the only one who can soothe all my worries and fear at the same time. I kissed her neck before I pulled away softly and stared onto her brown tired orbs deeply.
“Stay with me forever, please?” I pleaded hopelessly but Tiffany answered it with a gentle kiss.
I love her, so much.
Softly, she cried on my shoulder as she whispered her sincere ‘I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I’m sorry’.
But before she had asked for forgiveness, I’ve already forgiven her.
I held her tight in my arms and rested my chin onto her head while kissing her crown repeatedly.
“I miss you,” she said.
“I miss you most,”
“I’m s-sorry… don-don’t leave… me,”
“I won’t, I promise,”
I looked up at Taeyeon and Sunny who stood not far from me with their smiles and happy. Both looked perfect together, both of them look fitted to one another. And it was rather an elevating feeling as they looked at me and Tiffany with the same way I looked at them. The other members arrived and looked at the girl in my arm and they ran towards us with teary eyes of theirs. I let go of Tiffany and she stared at me.
“You have seven crying sisters wanting to hug you,” I said as I signaled behind her.
Tiffany looked at the direction and smiled happily before receiving the embraces from the other members. The sight in front of me was so touching; it’s so beautiful yet so fragile. We couldn’t live a life if we’re not together, the nine of us. I realize how it hurt for Tiffany to leave us and live with that *******. Alone, living at this little apartment called hell for a good 3 months. I don’t even know if I can survive a night, but she did. She did everything to make the rest of the members safe. She did everything protect me. And at this very moment, I can’t do anything but to love her until my last breath. She’s the one-my greatest downfall and the one who can lift me up at the same time.
We love her.
I love her.
I looked down and found our hands intertwined as she hugged the other seven members with the other. I smiled at this sight and moved closer. Our eyes met and I kissed her lips, Tiffany smiled and rested her head on my shoulder as we do our hug.
Yes, Girls’ Generation’s embrace, bond- as nine.

“Sir, we can only find his friend,”
The head police officer looked at the blond boy with his crews’ grips.
“Where’s your companion, Mr. Jang?”
Wooyoung looked away.
“Believe me, I don’t know. He left me behind and brought my car,”
“Mr. Jang, with all respect, I ask you to help us to lightning up the circumstances. We think Mr. Ok already hit his limit. Will you?”
Wooyoung looked down and sighed in guilt. He didn’t want to send Taecyeon to the jail but he also knew Taecyeon’s action was too much, unforgivable. Wooyoung looked up and nodded faintly.
“Thank you so much, Mr. Jang. Now, would you please come with us to the office?”
“Yes,”

Jessica looked at Tiffany every second. They were about to do a press conference about her and Taecyeon’s incident two days ago but still, Jessica can see the fear on her girlfriend’s eyes and she kissed Tiffany’s jaw line softly to comfort her, a way of telling her that she’s there for her. The younger brunette looked at her surprise.
“What was that for?” she hissed nervously and Jessica, in turn, chuckled.
“You’re nervous so I kissed you. Feeling better?”
Tiffany lowered her head, hiding her now-pink cheeks and Jessica can’t help but smile at the sight.
“You make me even more nervous,” she said.
When Jessica was about to utter words, Taeyeon nudge her and signaled both of them to go out from the waiting room and proceed to the hall. The kid leader smiled and patted Tiffany’s shoulder before she went out the room with Sunny tailing her.
Jessica looked at her and tightened her gripped. Tiffany closed her eyes as she exhaled loudly.
“Ready?”
“Ready,”

A guy with hat and plain t-shirt with worn out jeans stood calmly at the edge of the door. He looked up at the TV inside the coffee bar before he took a sit and ordered a black coffee. He looked out the window boringly before the ahjumma from the coffee bar changed the channel.
“Is it true? That you’ve been kidnapped by 2pm’s Taecyeon for the past three days?”
The guy’s head turned to the TV spontaneously. He watched the show with anger, teeth gritting in the process.
“Yes it’s true that Tiffany was been kidnapped by Ok Taecyeon from 2PM for three days and didn’t able to attend any of SNSD’s activity,”
He watched as the camera zoomed in to the two girls faces, one of them looked down at the table of microphones and the other one looking at the younger girl with small smile. The girl looked at the other one on her side and nodded her head before answering another question.
“Tiffany-sshi, did he do something harsh to you?”
“We heard that none of SNSD member can find you, where did he bring you?”
“Well, first of all, I wanted to thank my members, manager, and all the prayers for me,” she paused. “Taecyeon did kidnapped me for three days, we had some problems that I couldn’t say to any of you, and I don’t know where he is right now. He brought me to a cheap apartment and we lived there, he did bring me food but I didn’t dare to touch any of it. Well, if you can imagine how… depressed I am…” Tiffany bit her lips and looked at the other girl on her side. She patted her back before finishing what Tiffany had said.
“You would probably know how it feels like when your kidnapper brought you foo and you don’t feel like you eating any of it, so Tiffany, here, has the same feeling like that,” the girl looked at the camera before she continued. “Whoever he is, we need justice, and wherever he is right now, don’t worry we will find you in no time. Thank you,”
The guy on the table balled his fingers into fists and left the coffee bar at the time his black coffee has been served. He didn’t bother to even lay an eye on the mug and left his money before he drove off onto the road and speed up before the traffic lights turned red.
