Chapter 29
One year of TaeminI slammed the door behind me and made my way quickly down the hall. I was going to go to Jongin’s room. I hoped he was alone as I didn’t want to answer any questions. With Jongin I did not need to tell him what was wrong. He would let me be, and he would listen if I wanted to talk. He would not pry. I just needed to calm down and not go to Chanyeols room right now.
I knocked hard on the door when I reached his room. Slowly he came to the door.
‘What?’ he asked a little bleary eyed. ‘Oh Taemin, come in’ he said as soon as he saw me.
‘Are you ok?’ he asked as I fell onto the bed.
‘Can I stay here for a while?’ I asked the tension clear in my voice. He gave me a confused look but nodded his head. He didn’t say anymore. Like I said, Jongin did not pry, he would wait until I spoke.

Chanyeol stopped dead in the middle of the room when he saw me. I stood and stared at him with narrowed eyes, seething. His eyes were slightly red, the look of someone who had been crying. Our eyes met and I knew, he knew, that she had told me, I could see the look of shame in his eyes. He must have been able to see the anger in mine.
‘I’ll go’ he said very quietly, to Jongin, who looked absolutely baffled by the whole situation. He looked at me with narrowed eyes staring at Chanyeol to Chanyeol who had the grace to look away from me and look ashamed of himself.
‘No, I’m going.’ I said with deep conviction. My eyes never left his as I pushed my way past him shoving him a little. I added before I left ‘I have a girlfriend to get back to. Thanks, Jongin.’ I did not turn around to see Chanyeols face.
