"Wh-what are you doing, Sunbae?" 

I stammered on my words, my heart speeding at the sudden embrace. We were still by the door, Ji Hee longed gone. I felt my insides exploded into a gazilion butterflies at the sudden action. 

"I'm..." Chanyeol mumbled before he pulled away, his eyes darting around the floor, "I'm sorry...I was just...happy that Ji Hee was gone," 

There. My heart broke. I was just a replacement. 

I nodded and looked down, slipping on a pair of bedroom slippers that were by the door. Chanyeol walked to the kitchen, his back to me as he called out to me. 

"Take a seat," 

On cue, I sat on the leather couch and watch as he pour a glass of water for me and passing it to me. 

"Thank you, Sunbae.." 

My hands shook slightly as Chanyeol sat on the rocking chair. He drank up his water, his Adam's apple moving as he did. I put my glass down and decided to not waste any more time, gearing up to get straight to the point of visiting him. 

"How are you feeling, Sunbae?" I ask him, gathering the courage to look at him. 

"Better," He replied, looking at me tenderly. 

"How is Chanseo?" I ask, curious on the little boy. 

"Chanseo is well," Chanyeol whispered, "Why are you here?" 

"D.O. told me you were sick," 

"D.O.?" Chanyeol repeated, "He went to see you?" 

"A-ani..." I muttered, "We bump into each other two days ago," 

Chanyeol nodd
