‘I had a fiancé.’ Chanyeol said. There was something wrong with that sentence.

‘Had?’ she asked.

‘Yes, “had”.’ He answered. His face had darkened even more. They had touched upon a topic he wanted to forget.

‘Are you disappointed?’ he asked as she lay on his laps.

‘No,’ she said but she knows deep down, she really was. Maybe it’s the days they’ve been apart that her feelings for him had gotten stronger, she yearn for him and wanted more.
