“That's not okay. Please stay here for a bit more.“

I didn't move. I just lied there blinking with my eyes. Not knowing what to do. Not exactly.

I heard raindrops pattered against the windows.

The rain got heavier. It was luck for me that I didn't go home yet. Luck that I was lying here.

My head went up and down a bit everytime Woohyun inhaled and exhaled. Short and unregulary.

His breath went through my hair and he still had his arms around me. Tight around me.

“Woohyun-oppa?“, I finally said against his chest.

But there wasn't any response.

Then I tried to lift up my head to see if he was sleeping, but his hands stopped me at once.

“Woohyun-oppa?“, i asked again, but with surprise.

“Just don't move. Just lie...“

Nevertheless I didn't obey and loosened myself from his embrace to see his face.

I saw him directly in his eyes and vice versa.

But then he turned his face aside putting his arm on his eyes again.

“Why didn't you listen to me?“

“You don't have to act like that. It's nothing bad that guys cry. Everyone has his weak side.“

“I'm not crying. My eyes are just a bit teary...“

Whatever...

Instead of getting up since he wasn't holding me anymore I just rest my head on his chest again.

It was very comfortable and warm.

And maybe it was making him feeling better...

But after some minutes I thought that I had to go before my parents would call and intended to leave the sofa.

At first I could stand up, but when I turned around Woohyun immediately grabbed a piece from my skirt preventing me to go any further.

“It is raining outside, so don't go home now...“

“Pardon?“

“Please't, don't go now...don't leave“

Seeing him like that I just felt the opposite of the Woohyun I had met.

He was like a little boy saying he don't want to stay alone and would cry if I left him alone.

I took his hand off my skirt and sat down on the floor.

Seeing me like that he said immediately: “Don't sit there. Just come here. It's more comfortable...“

He tried to to get up and let me sit next to him, but his body didn't listened to him.

Again I gave him a nugde. This time with my hands.

“It's okay. I'm not a little girl. Just lie there and rest. Do you want to drink a tea? I will do it for you.“

Suddenly Woohyun's eyes went teary again and he put his hands on his eyes, covering them.

“Why am I like this? Always burdening everyone in my surrounding...“

I looked at him without understanding it. A tear went down his cheek.

“I'm sorry, _________-ah.....“

What could I say? I just looked at him who was being sorry and regretting.

“Oppa...“

“I'm sorry, you can leave now. Sorry for burdening you...“

“No, how can I leave you now? I will try to take care of you until you feel better!“

“Haha, this is what noona always says to me. You and her are in this case so similiar! Saying it now and getting annoyed of me soon.“

“What? What are you talking about? Why am I-?“

“Aiiish...Please leave.“

His feelings were all in a fluster right there.

In one moment he wanted me to stay and in the next moment he wanted me to leave.

I saw how much Woohyun fought against himself. Maybe to not saying anything more in his anger.

You know, if you're angry you will just start to talk and can't stop to release yourself from the pressure in yours.

Not knowing what to do to comfort him because it seemed that I was also a reason why he was angry. Or was I misunderstanding it?

I stood up and moved my hand towards his head and patted slowly his hair.

“You can tell me anything you want. I am your friend, you know? I want to-“

But suddenly he took my arm and pulled me down to him being nearly in the same position as before.

Woohyun hold me with both arms tightly and buried his face in my hair.

“________-ah, you are my friend? Can I trust you?“

“Y-yes, you can...oppa.“

I felt that this boy just really needed someone to talk to.

And someone who gave him warmth.

Could I be this person?

Step by step, in slow movements, I lead my arms to his arms trying to hold him.

Suddenly I heard the bell rung.

My arms stopped immediately.

Then after seconds a woman talked to the door.

“Woohyun-ah? You're here, right? Please open the door and let me speak to you...

Please...“

Then I felt his arms around me loosened a bit.

Guess, who's calling him in front of the door ;)

Hope you enjoyed this chapter

And thank you for waiting for me <3
