“You know, they say that spirits still linger around on Earth if there’s something still troubling them. If there is something they still need to do, then they need to stay here and do it before moving onto the next life.” Chanyeol is watching Baekhyun stare at his reflection on the surface of the water. Chanyeol looks down and meets Baekhyun’s eyes, but knows that Baekhyun cannot see him through the acting mirror.

Baekhyun then draws his attention away from the water. He looks at Chanyeol with distant eyes. “Then, are you still here because something is troubling you?” he asks cautiously.

Chanyeol chuckles lifelessly. He shrugs, “Maybe it’s better if I stay here longer than I should.”

Baekhyun’s eyebrows furrow. He doesn’t understand what Chanyeol is saying. “What do you mean?”

Chanyeol laughs again. “Nothing,” he says, “I don’t know what it is so I’ll be around for a while. Until I figure out what it is, I’ll be here.” He ends off with a sigh. Baekhyun is still confused. He wishes that Chanyeol would tell him then maybe he could help. There’s something in his heart telling him that Chanyeol has a good reason to keep his mouth shut if he really did mean he needs to stay here for a long time. 

Chanyeol is not confused at all. He knows exactly what he wants to do before he leaves though he wishes greatly that he doesn’t have to. It is not entirely what Chanyeol has to do but more so, what Baekhyun has to do.
