Mask and Smile

'Strange man'

Just one word that Tiffany Hwang would find to define a small person.

To be the leader of Girls' Generation is probably just this word.

strange man

Because Kim Taeyeon is a 'strange human being'

In your eyes when we first met, for the first time...

It says so

Big, sweet, juicy eyes His hands and chin looked at his slender face.

who has a smile decorating his face when he is absent-mindedly in the company of others.

He let out a small sigh when he heard loud laughter, not afraid of tarnishing the girl's image.

What a strange person.

That said, it's strange. It doesn't mean that her roommate grew horns or a tail.

The thing that says it's strange comes from the behavior that the person shows in front of the general public.

A sad smile that seemed like only you could see.

Kim Taeyeon is crying. Wailing sadly with a mask of smile plastered on his face.

I don't know why I created that mask. or conceal anything

However, she was the only one who could see that it was just a thin, clear glass shield. Can see through the loneliness within

Even though he never said anything.

Surprisingly, she was the one who saw it even though they had only recently been together.

Even she herself doesn't know.

There must be some reason to explain it.

Probably only God can give the answer...

There were many times when I saw a smile like that and it made me angry.

Even though I knew full well that I wasn't even the slightest bit angry at that kind of seduction from the other party.

But he felt so angry that he lost consciousness. Go out and make the annoying person laugh and have fun.

“Just kidding~ Miyoung.”

Taeyeon always says this. Said with a smile plastered on his mask.

Tiffany could only stare at it, not understanding. Only you can see Or is it only you who is delusional?

I think Kim Taeyeon is hiding those tears and loneliness behind a fake mask.

That was something that Tiffany was annoyed about.

The more I thought about it, the more irritating it became.

I'm irritated every time I believe the day I met you.

Until it turned out that

She felt pain every time she saw that mask.

Why?

Probably only God can give the answer...

Crack...

The room door was pushed open. Tiffany stretched her neck and looked around the room where there seemed to be no one.

But her eyes fell on something round on the bed.

She furrowed her brow and walked towards him. Taeyeon looked like she was sleeping.

...sleep soundly

But the body curled up into a ball.

It's like you're in pain.

Tiffany wrinkled her nose. He lowered himself down and sat next to his roommate's bed. He slowly placed his hand on the little man's upper arm.

Who hid his face so close to the pillow that he feared he might not be able to breathe.

She carefully removed the arms that were hugging her body.

Until Taeyeon's body relaxed. Stretched out on the bed as you should.

She sighed slightly. Staring at the other's face that seemed to have faint traces of dried tears smeared on it.

She extended her fingertips and touched the smooth, clear skin of a baby's cheek. Gently drag it into the eyelid, which is still moist with clear water.

Taeyeon moved her lips slightly as if she was dreaming.

Tiffany placed her hand on the other's forehead. Ready to stroke back and forth just gently.

"I'm still beside you...I'm here...with you."

Those thin lips seemed to twitch into a slight smile even though the eyelids were still closed...

Three years of being a trendy kid together Live together

Through hardships and daunting obstacles together

Kim Taeyeon and Tiffany Hwang are still together.

Same as it was from the beginning

Until now it has not changed.

For what reason?

Probably only God can give the answer...

Over the course of three years, Taeyeon saw Tiffany in different ways.

Happiness, suffering, loneliness, sadness, sorrow, laughing or crying.

Weakness, determination, strength.

The changes experienced in Tiffany's body

Kim Taeyeon is the one who knows best. Knows more than he does.

Meanwhile...

Over the course of three years, Tiffany saw Taeyeon in different ways.

Happiness, suffering, loneliness, sadness, sorrow, laughing or crying.

Weakness, determination, strength.

The changes experienced in Taeyeon's body

Tiffany Hwang is the one who knows best. Knows more than he does.

The two knew each other's identities.

Without a false mask

The identity that was revealed without realizing it

It seemed like... only one person could see it.

That's it, this reason...

Probably only God can give the answer...

“What are you thinking...?”

A familiar voice whispered in the silence of the night.

Wake someone out of their trance and turn around and smile.

smile-eyes

very familiar

Until those sweet, round eyes were dazzling. Spreading a wide sincere smile

“A little bit.”

Taeyeon raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this.

Reaching out to pick up a can of water in the kitchen refrigerator, he walked over and sat next to the other person.

Light-colored eyes stared suspiciously at the person who had his head down and smiling, playing with an empty water can with both hands.

“Request further explanation”

Tiffany looked up with a cute smile.

The person in front of him smiled and replied with raised eyebrows as if asking.

"you"

Tiffany tilted her head slightly as she uttered one syllable. Just one short word, but it covers everything.

Keywords that are left behind are almost meaningless. Taeyeon pursed her lips slightly as if surprised.

before raising the tip of the index finger towards himself

"I?"

Tiffany nodded with a cheerful expression. Without a hint of concealment

Taeyeon nodded in understanding before putting on a thoughtful expression.

"about?"

"we"

Another short hint Tiffany smiled, raising her arms perpendicular to her chin.

His large eyes narrowed slightly as he stared with amusement at the slender face that was deep in thought.

“Please help me.”

Tiffany laughed when she heard that. She pretended to have a thoughtful expression on her face, although her cheerful smile still hadn't faded.

It's been a while since I've had the opportunity to tease the other person. Let's bring it back and have some fun.

“Last keyword- me and you.”

Taeyeon furrowed her brows. His nose wrinkled until Tiffany burst into laughter. The little man slumped his head against the table.

A mumble passed through his forearm.

“It didn't help at all, Tiffany...”

“You have a good idea,” Tiffany laughed. It's strange to feel at ease even though I'm in a grumpy mood on many days.

From hard work still covered But it seems At this time it will no longer exist.

Including that mask.

Taeyeon raised her head. Rest your chin with your forearms flat on the table.

The light-colored eyes stared at the other person thoughtfully, but they looked so natural that they weren't uncomfortable.

Tiffany smiled slightly. Looking back into those small eyes Face without decoration

Hair that is naturally free flowing and a relaxed, natural pose.

“About us?” Taeyeon's eyes narrowed slightly at the question.

“Huh.”

“Since when?”

Tiffany tilted her head and rested her face on her forearm.

“Since when....that is?”

Taeyeon let out a small smile. He reached out his fingertips and tangled them in the other person's silky brown hair.

Tiffany closed her eyes without saying anything.

“We...we've been together all this time.” The tips of his slender fingers traced soft hair. before drawing down to the side of the cheek

Tiffany's lips curled slightly into a smile.

“Since the time she was a trainee...she hasn't changed at all since then and now. ...for me”

whisper softly His fingertips traced up to the edge of the other person's eyebrows. Tiffany's eyes were closed, but the corners of her mouth curved into a smile.

“You too...refuse to change at all,” a sweet voice whispered in response. Before slowly opening his eyes

Two eyes met as if by chance...but on purpose.

“Strange human being. Put on a fake mask.”

Tiffany said with a smile. But that sentence made Taeyeon frown.

"You're just a crazy bear who smiles and talks without thinking."

that in response, instead of making angry faces, the two of them laughed together.

That's it....this strange connection.

Probably only God can give the answer...

Masks are something that Kim Taeyeon uses it to trick others.

A smile is also what Tiffany Hwang uses to deceive others.

In the vast fake world

Two people who are sometimes as different as the sky and the abyss.

Sometimes they're exactly the same as twins.

But what keeps the two people together? There were only two hands from the two of them.

There is no release date.

As soon as that decision was made

The people beside him turned and smiled as if they knew each other.

Get to know each other...

Words that were not spoken And I didn't get a chance to say anything.

Because it's not necessary.

We both know each other well enough.

More than enough...

Kim Taeyeon chooses to wear a mask when approaching others.

Conceal and keep your true feelings deep inside.

Feelings of pain and loneliness It stabs the heart until it's hurt and broken.

Let your emotions out...when you're sure you're alone.

Because I don't want others to see my 'self'.

Sometimes it's like being an extrovert. Anyone can know from his sincere laughter and smile.

But often that face is hidden behind a mask.

No one can know his true identity.

It's like it's open, but it's concealed.

That's why I told you.

Kim Taeyeon is a “strange human being. Put on a fake mask.”

Meanwhile, Tiffany Hwang also approached other people. A smile, even if it's not intended to be hidden

But because I don't want to reveal my sadness to anyone.

I don't want to reveal my weakness to anyone.

To cover it up with a smile

Tiffany doesn't want anyone to know her weakness. and suffer with your sorrow

She is willing to share every story with others honestly without hiding anything.

...every story

So it got criticized by Kim Taeyeon.

"Crazy smiles, talks without thinking"

similarity different

The difference that 'Inaccurate' just a little

Two people who met each other In the vast world What destiny brings

Probably only God can give the answer...

But...

Both the mask and the smile

It doesn't work when two hands are led to walk together.

At first I thought it was strange and annoyed.

Why do you know our feelings?

The question floated up when they met face to face and locked eyes.

Both the mask and the smile were peeled off. immediately disappeared

Only the essence remains inside.

That can be touched...

Can touch...

To the heart...

Two hearts connected and fused into one.

Like a spoon and a fork that have to go together.

Different, but similar

different shape The method of use is different.

But they're similar.

Can be used interchangeably sometimes

But they cannot be replaced in some parts.

Just like not being able to use a fork to scoop up soup.

Or use a spoon to poke food.

If we are together They will replace the inferior parts and add additional parts to each other.

Kim Taeyeon and Tiffany Hwang are like that.

Know yourself again....

mask and smile

The fakeness faded away when we were together.

Just two people...

That answer...

No matter God or no one

can't know

Because that answer...

In the hearts of the two of us

There were only two of us who knew the answer to that question..

What is?

Just the two of us

The End.
