Jessica ran her slender fingers through her silky dark hair, tossing it over her left shoulder as she checked her phone for the time for the third time in the last twenty minutes.

MinYoung, one of Jessica's closest friends in the entertainment industry, was late. Typical.

Jessica let out a quiet, annoyed sigh as she sipped from the margarita glass in front of her on the sleek, monochrome bar table. The bartender eyed her warily, tossing a shaker up into the air and wondering how soon he should tell her he could no longer reserve a spot at the bar for her friend.

The place was busy enough, Jessica noticed as she glanced around in both boredom and expectation, adjusting her crisp white crop top and smoothing her black liquid leggings. Nestled on an unpopular street in Gangnam, this bar was a place Jessica enjoyed frequenting with her friends; its sophistication and minimalistic design suited her tastes perfectly.

The stool next to Jessica scraped against the shiny wood floor, causing her to look up from her phone.

I hope you are doing well now that I won’t be around. These are the simplest words that I will use for this goodbye, I can’t say more since I don’t want to make you suffer anymore. I love you and know that you were the only one for me. I will keep that necklace safe forever.

With love, Sseul.

P.S: Take care of yourself and make sure to eat all of your meals, otherwise I will be upset and not welcome you with open arms when we meet again if we ever do. I also left a present for you somewhere in your office at work, it’s up to you to find it.

The present she had left for the male wasn’t hidden in a place impossible to find— it being in one of the drawers of his desk. The white box contained a black, Cartier watch with his initials engraved on the back of it.

((thanks so much~! I didn't wanna sound like I was bragging but no one knows so I made it known haha yay~ \o/))

He had to muster up a lot of courage to finally see her. He tried his best to avoid it, honestly. After news of her death, he buried himself in work and drank himself to oblivion at night since then. It hit him hard. Death was never kind to him and Death took away a friend and a significant other. He thought that perhaps they'd be together again one day. But, apparently not.

Woobin knelt in front of her stone, reading her name to himself. "S-Sseul-ah," he rasped, his throat suddenly dry, "I miss you... I didn't get to say goodbye to you... I'm so sorry..." He couldn't say much else. he was never good at saying his thoughts aloud. "I got you something. Well, I got it for you while we were together and planned to give it to you when we spent Christmas together." He looked down at the box and put it down at the head of the stone. Inside was a heart-shaped diamond necklace. 

He didn't know what to say at that point. He was just hollow and numb from the cold. "I wrote a letter to you. It says more than I can ever say now." He bit his lip and gently stroked the tombstone as if it were Seulgi's face. He wished it was. He missed her. "I'll come back when I get the chance to. I promise. I'll never forget you either. Be happy in heaven. It's where you belong." With that, he stood and bowed in respect before trudging off with a heavy heart.

The letter:

My dear Sseul,

My sweet, kind Sseul. I don't understand why the universe took you away from Earth already. You had so much you wanted to do. I didn't show you my care or love enough. It was such a short time. I don't understand it. I really don't.

I miss you. I miss your warmth against my chest. I miss your soft skin against my skin. I miss tangling my fingers in your silky hair. I miss your pretty eye smile and your adorable laugh. I just miss everything about you. I let you go too soon. I always thought that maybe we could have a future together but it seems it can't be that way.

That necklace-- it's supposed to represent my infinite care I have towards you. That if one day we wouldn't be together as we thought we would, you'd always remember that I'd never stop caring about you. I wanted to give it to you today, Christmas Day, with the hopes of my feelings for you to grow into something as strong as love.

But, time was too short. I love you and I wish I loved  you more. I wished you were here so I could love you more.

Love always,

Binnie.

Just under the big red bow was a cute Christmas card with a hand written message inside:

Unnie! Merry Christmas!

I hope you like the treats I made and the gifts I got you! Enjoy them with no regrets! :D I’m really glad to have met you this year. And I’m so ever grateful that you’ve helped me through the ordeal with my brothers. If it weren’t for you, I’d still probably be crying on the sidewalk at the orphanage. So, thank you from the bottom of my heart. I hope as the time passes we can be close like sisters and we can go to each other for everything. Let’s march into 2015 with love and positivity filled in our hearts.

Happy Holidays~! xoxo ♥

Hyuna had had another long day of schedules, despite the holiday, and upon reaching her apartment seeing the box caused her to swell with happiness. Her tiredness was a thing of the past as she picked it up and brought it inside. She read the card first, her face beaming with happiness the entire time and her eyes even threatening to tear up. "Omo such a sweetheart...I have to get her something..." She opened the gifts then, so happy to have been able to come home to such a treat and so thankful to have fatefully made such a nice new friend.

She decided to shoot her a text then to thank her since it was late and she was probably sleeping and said:
