Two hours later, everyone was tired of the PC room. The room was uncomfortably humid, the dampness almost suffocating. Frustrated game-goers were swearing under their breaths impatiently and the sound of various keys of the keyboard being constantly hit filled the room. 

"Younghyun I want to go home, I'm getting tired," Lina sighed, tugging at her boyfriends sleeve. 
Younghyun stretched and stood up "I think we're gonna go Sungjin, Fei."
"We'll go too," Sungjin agreed and we stood up and followed the two out of the building. 
The night air enveloped us in a cold embrace. The sensation stung my cheeks a little but I was thankful for no longer being in that suffocating room, refreshed now. 
We split off once we approached a busy intersection. Late night shoppers were bustling past us, so we said our goodbye's from a distance and went our separate ways, leaving just me and Sungjin.

Sungjin's voice was a little away from being considered a shout. I could feel pedestrians eyes on us, though they continued to go about their business, I knew our voices were audible. 
"Took one thing away from you and isn't taking another...Sungjin what do you mean by that?" I asked quietly. 
Sungjin started off briskly, walking down the road to my home and refusing to answer the question I posed.
I caught up with him quickly only to be outpaced once again. "Sungjin, please, tell me what you mean." 
But Sungjin didn't tell me what he meant until we got to the outside of my house. 
"You know that summer two years ago, me, Younghyun, Wonpil and Dowoon entered that competition to get a record deal with JYP?" Sungjin asked seriously.
