"You and I brought out the best of each other and we've seen a part of each other, others haven't seen." Jisoo started.

"You were one of the best things that came to my life. But speaking of best things, you can agree that my mom is an important person to me."

Jisoo's mom? This caused Cheol to meet Jisoo's eyes. 

"A few days before I left, she called me. It was an emergency, she was dying Cheol. She needed me. And that was probably when our relationship was at it's lowest."

Why did he never say anything to him?

"Jisoo. Wait. Stop." Cheol stood up.

"This is the craziest thing and probably the dumbest thing ever, but I forgive you." Cheol closed his eyes and opened them to see Jisoo with his mouth wide opened. 

"I know..I know it's dumb. But Jisoo, you're the kindest person ever. Everyone knows that, but when you left, I knew you wouldn't leave without a valid reason. I wish you could have talked to me after but I forgive you. I wasn't the best boyfriend to you either, I added to your problems instead of being there for you."

Jisoo couldn't believe his ears. Cheol was literally
