Junmyeon wasn't sure how long it took for him to gather up the courage to knock on the door and then open it. He found her with one of her luggages open on the bed while she stuffed her clothes in. She didn't even look up when he entered the room. "You're leaving?" he asked quietly. 

Joohyun didn't answer. Instead, walked into the bathroom. 

He waited until she emerged with one of her travel kits before asking again, "Where are you going?"

"Daegu."

"I'll come with you," he blurted out. 

Stopping to look at him, she sighed. "I'm going there to get away from you."

Of course he knew that. Why else would she pack her bags and make a spontaneous trip to her parents' house? But it still hurt him hearing her say it out loud. "So you're leaving me?" he asked in a tiny voice. 

He saw a flicker of sympathy in her eyes before she bit her lip. "I just need time... I need time to think... And breathe."

They were both quiet as they looked at each other.

​​​​"Can you atleast give me that?" 

Holding himself back, he took a deep breath before nodding. "Arasso."
