10:00 p.m.

Seunghyun finished parking his car and stayed still. He didn’t make any move nor sound. He stared blankly with tears, they kept running down his sunken cheeks as he kept on blaming himself.

Before, he was busy taking care of Hyunwoo so he didn’t have time for his own feelings. And now that he’s not busy anymore, he started to feel those emotions crawling upon him.

The shock, pain, guilts, and sadness towards Bom, Hyunwoo and Reumi; the three most beloved persons to ever exist in his life.

But one doesn’t anymore.

And two are left broken.

And this one little fool, barely know this just now.

One is gone, two are broken and one fool might be the reason of it.

Seunghyun had been speeding to get to Bom. He refused to hear anything from Hyunwoo because he wanted everything to be poured from her lips.

But when he arrived, he didn’t seem to have the courage to see her.

He’s afraid of knowing the truth he always avoided. Especially when that truth had already taken 2 souls out of their bodies;

His father and Park Reumi.

Seunghyun clenched his teeth, his anger made it to control him.

He gripped the steering wheel tight---so tight his fingertips became white---to transfer his anger away. He tried to control his hunting breath and closed his eyes.

Time to not be a loser. Time to face the truth.

Eventhough it may hurts at first and you wanna kill yourself, it’s worth knowing, Choi Seunghyun.

Remember, the pain will not be as painful as those 3 years without her.

You survived that one, so you surely will survive this too. Also, you got her beside you. She’ll make it easier for you, I guarantee.

You can pass this one. You can heal from the pain.

You got your healer by your side, and she’s everything you will ever need.

Seunghyun nodded to himself and erased his tears. He got encouraged and his heart is a little lighter.

Now his mind is thinking hard. He started making plans on how to make Bom explain everything without making her cry.

Eventhough it sounds impossible, Seunghyun had to find the way. He didn’t want Bom to recall her painful memories with tears all over her face.

There should be a way. There must be.

And then it striked him.

They’re still on a point-less kiddo fight.

Well, I hope this could help.

Seunghyun finally smiled.

10:30 p.m.

Park Bom couldn’t sleep. She kept on checking her phone, waiting for Seunghyun’s text or call.

This is weird, eventhough they’re still in a fight,---technically not a fight because it’s one sided---usually Seunghyun would still pick up her calls and texted her back.

He would’ve pick them up and said few short answers, like; yes, no, uh-uh, nope, okay, bye.

But he didn’t today.

Seunghyun didn’t pick up Bom’s calls or even text her back. This behaviour made her even more worried.

Him, not talking to her is already a torture, and now, not even texts and calls?

Bom swiped on her bed and stared at the ceiling. She let out a sigh and ruffled her hair.

I thought that your silence will get better in time, but I guess not so easy, huh, Choi Seunghyun-ssi?

Bom swiped to the other side, being uneasy.

You really got me, Seunghyun-ssi.

You got me hanging and longing again. Eventhough you’re only a step away, I still can’t reach you.

I can’t talk to you when I’m missing your voice.

I can’t touch you when I’m missing your warmth.

I can’t feel you and this is tiring.

Bom kicked her blankets away.

This is pointlessly frustating, Choi Seunghyun-ssi!

The bell rang just then.

Bom quickly turned her head around and stood up.

It must be him!

Omo! Omo!

Bom ran towards the door with the speed of lightning, and stopped before a mirror to check herself out.

Her hair in a half bun and her bare face still looks flawless.

She smiled in satisfy and undo three first buttons of her favorite sleepwear---Seunghyun’s white t-shirt---which covers her until her thighs, and showed a bit of her black lingerie when she move around.

She checked on her own smell, which still reeks of the vanilla scent Seunghyun is crazy for.

She hoped that tonight he would drop his silence off and made up with her.

Maybe even do something more in bed.

Bom smiled naughtily and opened up the door, but she didn’t see Seunghyun’s gorgeous face. She didn’t see his smile. She didn’t see him there.

She furrowed her eyebrows and peeked left-right. She’s 100% sure she heard a bell just then. She can’t be imagining it.

She stepped outside and peeked more, but found nothing.
