~ Come Out ~

That night, for the first time, the conversation that you had with your parents interested you. As you silently sat down on the dinner table, eating your steak, your mother and father made a little announcement which they said that you’re involved with.

After swallowing her food, she put down her chopsticks and looked at you, “Do you remember your friend who you met in the US a few years ago?” she questioned.

Automatically, the moment when she mentioned the word ‘friend’, your attention was on her but you still acted like you didn’t care. “Bae Suzy? Yeah, I still remember her.”

It was said, the sentence that you hated the most. Not finishing your dinner, you stood up from your chair, “Thanks for the food,” you said coldly then went straight to your room, making sure you lock the door this time so that no one could barge in.

You went to the window again, looking out into the dark streets. For some reason, you actually hoped that those boys would be there again – and they were. There was still the same amount of people and you could see Taeyeon’s older brother, Taehyung.
