57 Torn Heart 01

Reen's hand slightly trembled while turning the TV on as she trying to click play button.

She didn't want Chad to know who she really is as previously repeatedly mentioned. She didn't want to see or talk to Sae after what happened a few days ago as it would really be awkward.

And she wanted to talk to Diola alone to help her with her jumbled thoughts and apologize for not at least telling her she was alright. While these thoughts swirled around her mind, the music started playing.

She decided to stand up rather than sit since she couldn't calm down.

The video started when Reen walked up a hill surrounded by trees that were illuminated by lamps on each side of the pathway.

A flashback in vintage color was then played where Chad was opening the door for Reen continuing as they ate at the tree house themed restaurant.

It then switched from them eating and laughing to them arguing in gray scale effect while she sang outside in full color representing that she was in the present and the black and white image at the back is her thoughts of the past. The restaurant that they had eaten in, people passing and eating on the background.

♪ I love you, 3 words you kept mumbling

I love you, 3 words you kept repeating.

"You know that's not true" I whispered softly.

"If you keep pretending she's me,

You'll never be truly happy."

You looked at me and I smiled sadly. ♪

Their argument intensified and she left in a hurry carrying her bag while looking at him sadly, he could only stare in despair at her. They were the only customers left in the restaurant by then.

♪ My tears started falling

My heart is breaking.

I couldn't take this anymore

So I reached for the door.

I looked back at your sullen face

"This is for the best". ♪

It went back to the present full of beautiful luscious colors, she sang with heavy emotions. Diola who was listening attentively now could not help but feel her heart being torn listening to the emotion filled song.

Chad started shouting regardless of the crew behind the counter top's presence. The restaurant crew wisely left, to give them space as portrayed in the video.

♪ I love you, you started shouting

I love you, you started screaming.

I silently close the door

Until I couldn't hear your voice anymore. ♪

Her past self-cried while leaning on the restaurant's door while her present self-continued to sing.

The song continued and the scene changed to the date they had in the park where they were walking happily up until they sat on the bench, Chad sleeping on her lap and Reen playing with his hair. It was portrayed in the past where they were still happy and she didn't know any better.
