She is the "Bias wrecker" of every Kpop fans.
"♪♪♪" Lily sang as she smiled to the people.
The fans shouted and cheered for the girl group.
"You're doing great, lily" Wendy (Haesoo) Whispered and smiled.
Wendy then sang right after and everyone shouted louder. They all cheered.
As the concert ended, The three sat down smiling while catching their breaths.
"You did well, Mina!" Wendy praised and smiled.
"No... y-you... did better, Wendy" Mina (Chaeryoung) said as she felt very exhausted.
"Stop it. Of course I did better~" Lily proudly said.
The two paused and laughed as they heard that.
"You never change with that cute proud personality, Lily!" Wendy said and laughed.
"What would you expect from a visual?" Mina said and laughed.
"Well, I can't lie you did great, Wendy" Lily said and smiled.
"I feel honored to hear that from our Lily" Wendy said and signaled for a group hug.
"Group hug?" Wendy asked as she giggled.
"Group hug!!!" The three shouted as they embraced each other.
*Ting!*
"Oh! The novel updated!" Mina shouted as she broke free.
"Novel?" Wendy and Lily asked at the same time.
"It's my favorite novel called "The Duke's Songbird" The story is about a Duke who loved a woman named "Lilian" but sadly, she died. Then, a similar woman came into his life and captured his heart!" Mina said as she closed her eyes fangirling.
"Oh?" The two said as they felt no reaction at all.
"You're clearly uninterested!" Mina shouted as she pouted.
"We're going to read it, don't worry" The two said and laughed.
"Oh come on, I know you won't~" Mina said and turned away.
"You don't trust Wendy?" Wendy asked as she tried to look cute.
"Stop it!" Mina shouted.
"Pfft! Hahahahahaha!" Lily laughed loudly.
EVENING...
"It's so late already. I should go home" Lily said as she picked her phone up and entered the door.
She felt sleepy while driving. She opened her eyes widely as she heard a notification from her phone.
"A New chapter of The Duke's songbird is out!"
"Huh?" Lily asked in surprise.
"Didn't it update just a while ago?" Lily asked as she scratched her head.
As she once again looked in front, she was surprised as a car is in front of her. She tried to stop the car but the two crashed.
As Lily slowly closed her eyes...
*Open eyes*
"Uhm..." Lily opened her eyes and looked.
"Wounds?" Lily asked in surprise.
'There's no surprise because I crashed...' Lily thought.
"Ughh!" Lily shouted in pain as she massaged her head.
"What happened?" Lily asked herself expecting no one to answer it.
She looked at the knife wounds on her arms.
"Did I try to commit suicide?" Lily asked as she touched the wound.
She didn't feel any pain at all.
"Ughh!" Lily shouted in pain as her head rang again.
"What..."
"What was my name again?"
Lily sat on the chair and stared at the broken glasses everywhere.
Unknowingly, tears fell down her eyes and wiped it up.
"Why... why am I even crying?" Lily asked herself.
Images kept appearing on her mind. It gets on being mixed up.
"Lily, You did great!"
"Lilian, you'll have to marry the Duke!"
Lily massaged her head and closed her eyes. Tears kept on falling down uncontrollably.
"It hurts... who are you?" Lily asked as she closed her eyes.
Different songs rush inside her head and Lily held her head tightly as she shouted in agony.
"Who are you?!" Lily kept on asking as she cried.
The door then opened and a handsome man appeared.
Golden eyes and black hair.
A man who seemed to be familiar.
"The Duke of Vento, Eclis Vento. He possessed dashing black eyes and sharp deep Golden eyes" A line from a novel that will never be able out of her head.
"Du-duke?" Lily asked as she let go of her head.
Lily closed her eyes and opened it once again.
"Ugh..." Lily said as her head once rang again.
The Duke looked at Lily as if he felt pity.
He knelt down and teared.
"Lilian..." He said as he cried and embraced Lily.
"Lil...ian?" Lily asked in confusion.
"Why did you try to do that?" The Duke asked as he continued to cry.
Lily pushed him away and trembled in confusion.
"Who? Who's lilian?" Lily asked as her head hurt again.
The Duke froze in surprise as she said those words.
'Did she lose her memory?' The Duke asked himself. He couldn't help but only bite his lips and help Lily stand up.
"I think... you should rest first" The Duke said and led Lilian inside her room.
"Who... are you?" Lily asked.
"I'm Duke Eclis Vonte. Your husband" Eclis introduced as he trembled slightly.
"My... husband?" Lilian asked.
(I changed lily to Lilian now)
"Yes, but..." Eclis looked down as he said that. He looked like hesitating and bit his lip.
"But?" Lilian asked.
"We are not officially married right now" Eclis said as he looked at Lilian.
"Can... I not marry you?" Lilian innocently asked.
Eclis paused and bit his lips.
"No" He said and left.
Lilian watched Eclis walking away and she felt relieved and confused at the same time.
Eclis' footsteps became faster and faster. He locked his door as soon as he got in and buried his face with his palm.
"Lilian... what should I do with you?" Eclis asked as his heart beat faster and faster. He felt hurt deep inside yet he can't say that in front of Lilian.
He heard a knock and he turned to open it. There, he saw Lilian on the door. She was shivering in fear and she was holding her pillow.
"I'm... scared of the thunder" Lilian said and looked up at Eclis.
Eclis paused and thought it over. He is still hurt but he cannot reject Lilian even though he doesn't want to see her yet.
"You should stay here for the night" Eclis said and turned.
The two laid on the bed with their backs facing each other.
Lilian hugged her pillow tightly as she closed her eyes.
'I feel confused... who am I really?' Lilian asked herself as she opened her eyes slowly. She turned to look at Eclis' broad back. It felt like it was something she could hug and depend on.
She shook her head shaking those thoughts off.
Lilian stood and looked at Eclis. She saw that he was sleeping soundly so she left the bed and started going to the balcony.
Eclis opened his eyes as he slowly followed her.
'Why is she awake at such a late hour?' Eclis asked himself as he looked.
Lilian was sitting on the floor and she was looking on the scene in the balcony.
Eclis paused as he stared at Lilian.
Silver hair and deep blue eyes that never fails to amaze him. He smiled gently as he stared at Lilian.
As if he could only admire her from afar.
He froze as he heard Lilian started humming.
"Hm♪ Hmm♪" Lilian hummed. She remembered the days she was still an idol. But the days when she was a lady is clear on her head. She slowly cried as she hummed those songs she sang. From when she was a lady and from when she was an idol. Her feelings are all mixed up. The memories she doesn't even know if it does belong to her feels precious to her.
"Hmm♪" She continued to hum her group's song.
She wiped her tears off as she looked at her palm.
"Am I really Lily? Or am I Lilian?" She asked herself. She buried herself with her palm and her head began to hurt once again.
"Ugh..."
Everytime she tries to remember something, it hurts.
Lilian stopped as she looked beside her.
There, Eclis was standing still – Surprised.
He looked very much worried and he seems to hold himself down and avoids to approach her and touch her. He only bit his lips and opened his mouth.
"Why..."
Lilian paused as she waited for what he will say.
"Are you crying?"
