Chapter Ten

Finding Home

 

It won’t work. This relationship; us. We won’t work it.

Baekhyun stared at the sleeping Kyungsoo beside him. He Kyungsoo’s hair softly when the other boy mumbled unconsciously.

It’s not like I don’t love Kyungsoo. I love him, really. But maybe it’s not like ‘love’ that I used to feel on him. It’s just like I love my brother or my best friend.

Baekhyun sighed silently, not wanting to make Kyungsoo awake.

I’d chosen the wrong way.

Soon, Baekhyun could hear the sound of the rain falling outside. He smiled bitterly, remembering how he and Chanyeol used to cuddle to each other every time the rain was falling. He really missed the tall man. He really wanted to meet him now so they could cuddle like the old days.

“Baekhyun…?”

Kyungsoo’s voice made Baekhyun startled a bit. “Hey, what’s wrong? Why are you awake?” he said, smiling half-heartedly.

“Mmm, don’t know… I was just awake suddenly. Why aren’t you sleeping?”

“I just can’t sleep.”

Kyungsoo looked up at his boyfriend. “Are you okay? Is there something bothering you?” he asked worriedly.

“No, nothing… I just can’t sleep yet, that’s all.”

“Really?”

“Yes.” Baekhyun caressed Kyungsoo’s cheek softly. “Now you have to go back to sleep, you have to work tomorrow.”

“Well… I think you’re right. But you have to sleep too. I mean, now.”

Baekhyun chuckled. “Okay, okay, I’ll sleep…”

Kyungsoo smiled, snuggling up to the other. The boy went back to his dreamland in no time.

But Baekhyun was still awake.

How could I sleep if Chanyeol is still there, taking the biggest space on my mind?

“Good morning, Honey,” Kyungsoo said as Baekhyun opened his eyes.

“Hey, Soo… morning,” Baekhyun replied, brushing his sleepy eye. “What time is it?”

“Eight. Wake up, Dear, let’s take the breakfast!”

Baekhyun smiled bitterly when Kyungsoo landed a kiss on his cheek. He then got up, following his boyfriend.

“What’s your planning for today?” Kyungsoo asked while putting the sandwich on a plate.

“I’ll be going to the office, there are some papers I have to collect, and I have a meeting for the next project.”

“It seems you’re really busy nowadays…”

“I am. It’s tiring, though.”

Kyungsoo put the plate of sandwiches on the table before going towards Baekhyun and hugged him. “You rarely have time for me…” he whispered, pouting.

“I’m sorry, Soo, I can’t help it.” Baekhyun said, not even moving to hug Kyungsoo back.

“It’s okay, I understand.” Kyungsoo let his body move away from Baekhyun. “I just hope you will take your time to spend with me…”

Baekhyun stared at Kyungsoo. He lifted his hand, circling his fingers around Kyungsoo’s wrist. “How about this Saturday?”

“Eh?”

“I think I can spare my time for you this Saturday.”

Kyungsoo’s eyes sparkled hearing that. “Really? Is that really okay?”

“Well, if you want to, then it’s okay.”

“Of course I want! Where will we go?”

“I’ll make it up to you. Where do you want to go?”

Kyungsoo thought for a moment. “There are so many places I want to go with you…” he mumbled. “But how about going to the amusement park? It’s been a long time since the last we came there!”

Baekhyun froze. “A-Amusement park…?” he stuttered.

“Yes. Is it okay with you, right? Come on, Baekhyun. Pleeease, pretty pleeease?” Kyungsoo pleaded.

Baekhyun couldn’t help but say yes.

“Okay, okay.” he said. “This Saturday, the amusement park. Alright then.”

“Yay!”

Baekhyun smiled at the cheerful boy. But inside, he was worried.

How if I meet him? No, I’m not ready to see his face.

It was almost 10 o’clock in the night when Baekhyun reached his apartment. He was really tired today. He had many projects to handle for this month and it made him feel exhausted. And his thoughts about Chanyeol made it worse. He missed that guy badly, and even his business couldn’t help him to forget Chanyeol.

, Yeol. Let me breathe without thinking of you, please.

Baekhyun sighed. All he wanted was to relax his body to gain more strength to do the projects. And of course, he needed to kick Chanyeol out from his mind before he went crazy.

Baekhyun was about to unlock the door when he found the door wasn’t even locked. Baekhyun frowned. What was that? Did Kyungsoo forget to lock the door? No way, it wasn’t his habit. He knew the best that Kyungsoo was a perfectionist, he’d never forget to do something he had to do.

“Kyungsoo, I think you forget to—”

What the hell, Soo. You cheat on me again?

Baekhyun couldn’t believe the view in front of him. In the living room there were Kyungsoo and Jongin with their make out session.

“, Soo.”

“B-Baekhyun…” Kyungsoo looked really shocked as he found Baekhyun was home. He pushed Jongin away and rushed towards his boyfriend. “B-Baekhyun, please, I can explain this!”

“No. You don’t have to explain anything. I think I believe my eyes more than I believe your words.” Bakehyun said it coldly. His chest felt so tight. He was about to explode, but he held it.

“Baekhyun, please…” Kyungsoo started crying. “Please, let me explain it to you…”

“Didn’t you hear what I said, ?”

Kyungsoo froze. ? Baekhyun had never called him by that. And even though Baekhyun said it with calm, cold voice, he knew that the other boy was really angry. He knew he obviously hurt Baekhyun once again.

“Hey.” Suddenly Jongin spoke up. “Don’t you ever call Kyungsoo like that.”

Baekhyun chuckled, giving Jongin a mocking look. “What? You don’t like it, huh?” he said. “Of course… you love this little so much, don’t you?”

Jongin didn’t say anything. But soon Baekhyun could feel Jongin’s fist hit his jaw hardly.

“You don’t have any right to call him !!” Jongin yelled, hitting Baekhyun’s face over and over.

But Baekhyun didn’t do anything. He kept lying on the floor, taking Jongin’s beating without saying any protest.

Yeol. Yeol. Chanyeol.

“Let’s go out of here, Kyungsoo. You don’t deserve someone like him.” Jongin said, pulling Kyungsoo’s hand and dragging him outside, left Baekhyun alone on his apartment.

He leaves, Yeol. He leaves me again. And there’s no more you anymore.

Baekhyun got up, wincing when he felt hurt all over his face. He chuckled softly.

“How stupid I am…”

“Ah, you’re the boy who lived with Chanyeol, right? Why are you here?”

Baekhyun turned his head to find one of Chanyeol’s neighbors was walking towards him. It looked like she was just back from work. She obviously looked startled seeing all the bruises on Baekhyun’s face, but she didn’t say anything about it.

“Ah… I was moving out.” Baekhyun said, smiling at her. “I’m looking for Chanyeol, but it seems he’s not home yet…”

“Oh, you’re looking for Chanyeol? Well, too bad… he moved out about a month ago. It looked like he had some family problem so he had to go back to his parents’ home.”

“H-He… moved out…?”

“Yes. You didn’t know it?”

“Uh… no… he… we were not talking much anymore since I moved out.”

“Hmm, I see…”

“Do you know where was he moving to?”

“No, not really. He didn’t tell me anything, though. He just said he must go back to handle his father’s company or something…” She gave Baekhyun a little smile. “Well… it’s late already, I have to go inside my room. You’d better go home now before it’s getting more lately.”

“O-Of course… thanks for your information, anyway.”

“Sure.”

As the lady went inside her room, Baekhyun leaned his back on the wall, slowly falling to the ground.

You left me too, Yeol? You left me?

Baekhyun pulled his knees up to his chest, burying his face between them.

Tears started streaming down his bruised cheeks and he didn’t even try to stop them.

No. I am the one who left him. I hurt him. And if now I’m hurt, I deserve it. But…

Baekhyun cried even more.

“I need you Chanyeol… I love you…”
