One word. Sketchy.
This is not because I am a Kadi shipper and am bitter
about it (I mean I am, but that’s not the point), but because of the whole
situation.
Congratulations, by the way. But, since I’m a
hardcore Kadi shipper, I don’t think I can give a sincere congratulation (I’m a
bad fan, sorry). To be frankly honest, I hate it. I almost smashed my laptop to
the wall when I first read the news online. I got moody all day; I just
finished watching Gintama 2015—the last episode practically killed me—earlier
that day, on April 1st, so I was still feeling heartbroken. And then, I got a
feeling that I should open my facebook account (yes I still use the thing) and
saw a news about BTS fooling around on April Fool on soompi. But then, I
glanced to the side area of the site and saw the tell tale “BREAKING : EXO Kai
and f(x) Krystal are......”, and right then and there, my already heartbroken
heart broke a lot more. I think it turned into dust.
I was super upset more than anything (I still am). I
wasn’t even jealous or sad or disappointed or anything. I was UPSET, super
duper UPSET I didn’t know what to do anymore. I also had a big presentation
later that day and like, God, help me.
Okay, onto the topic. I am not here to write down
what I’m feeling. Like I said on the first line, this Kaistal being exclusive
is just sketchy. Everything about the entertainment world is sketchy as hell
okay. Everything about SM ENTERTAINMENT is
sketchy. That agency is just kinda fucked up, seriously.
So, why I think this Kaistal stuff is so sketchy is
because of some reasons that maybe somehow make sense. This is just my opinion
alright so please be kind to me. You can judge all you want, but please please
please, be kind to me. My heart is still fragile, I just realized that I just
lost the purpose of my life (Kadi is the purpose of my life. I’m being
dramatic, I know), so please, be kind.
Okay, first. The timing. It is so right, so precise,
too precise even that it almost
doesn’t make sense. What I’m trying to say is, at the age of 22 (23 in SK), and
after being friends for God knows how long, affections may appear between
Kaistal. It’s inevitable, and I can accept that. They are both more mature now,
their career are going well (with bumps here and there), they are a boy and a
girl fully known what love is (at least they understand a little bit about love
from all those love songs they’ve sung over and over again) and they are
artists under the same agency and tend to run into each other a lot of times,
so it is inevitable that affections may grow for each other.
The 20s is the perfect age for people to start
falling in love. It’s the age when people are very curious about themselves and
start experimenting with stuffs—and one of them is falling in love. But the
thing is, why now? Dispatch said (I really shouldn’t believe anything Dispatch
says, but whatever I don’t know who to believe anymore but my Dear God) that
Kaistal are just recently started being romantically involved with each other. But
EXO was super busy at that time (since last year until very recently), so how
could Kai not drop dead juggling between crazy schedules and injuries and
dating (or being romantically involved with someone)?
Second, the pictures of them going on “dates” are
weird. From what I remember, Kaistal are the kind of guys who are kind of
anti-camera whenever they have their own personal time. Krystal is always
putting on that ice cold expression whenever cameras are around during her
personal time (I’m not really sure either, please correct me if I’m wrong) and
Kai is also like that. They both give off this kind of “personal time means me
time and I really don’t want to be disturbed by cameras and flashes so please
get away from me” vibe, so when I saw the pictures of them on “dates”, they
look very ready to be caught on camera. They’re, like, deliberately jumping in
front of those camera lenses so that people could get pictures of them together
on alleged “dates”. Shouldn’t people who love their me time to be their me time avoid those cameras? Shouldn’t
they, like, “shit there’s a camera over there we’re going to be caught outing
together let’s go that way to avoid it” or something?
And third, SM confirmed it so fast it felt like it
was prepared beforehand. Like, when you know what kind of material that’s going
to be asked by your teacher and so you prepared the answers already and when
your teacher that question you already got your answer for, you immediately
raise your hand and answer it.
Or something like it.
Oh and also, none of their friends are saying
anything. I mean, hello, Taemin, where are you?
These are just what have been bothering me for the
past three days since the news came out, though. Also, the news came out on
April 1st, which means that it could mean anything but the truth. I’m just
saying though.
I’m going to get bashed because of this post, OMG
what have I done.
Maybe I’m just reading too much into it. Maybe I’m
just delusional. Maybe I love Kadi too much I don’t want that ship to crumble
into inexistence. I really just want to get all this out of my head so I can
tend to more important matters, like, my undergraduate thesis, for example.
Huh. Maybe that’s all.
Bye!

P.S. : I'm crossposting it on my tumblr too, but I'll post it there later. The wi-fi here sucks. It's the same thing and if you want to visit my tumblr, here.
