” How much longer are you gonna be here? ”

He heard Bom’s voice from behind him.
Somehow now, she doesnt sound as irritated as she always do.
She sounds like she sympathises Junhyung.
He looked at her as she sat herself beside him.

’ What is she doing? ’ , he thought.

 

” Junhyung-ah, go home. ”

He greeted her with silence and ignored her.

 

” I know how you feel but she’s not coming back to you. Go home. ”

” No, you dont know how I feel. She is coming back to me. ”

He heard Bom sigh as she pulled him to face her.

 

” Listen. What you’re going through, I know. I’ve been through it as well. Dont think this is any easier for Min-ah. Think of how she feels if you keep doing this. Let her go. ”

Junhyung looked again at Bom. Is she kidding him?
He saw Min-ah smiling just a while ago, how could she be suffering?
Doesnt even make sense.

 

” Does Min-ah really looks happy to you? I thought you knew her well enough to know that she isnt. At least I know she is not. Love isnt just merely about you liking her. Its all about trust. If you trust her, you wouldnt be like this. ”

Bom told him as she pat his back and giving his fist an assuring squeeze.

 

” Tell her you love her each day but dont come drunk like this. It hurts her. You know it yourself. ”

Bom stood up and held out her hand to Junhyung.
He reach out to her and hugged her tight.

 

” Thanks, noona. ”

” This is one of the few moments when you’ll use honorifics. ”

She laughed and knocked his head before sending him back into Doojoon who had been waiting for Junhyung to go home.

 

Junhyung got in without much fight and sat in the seat willingly.
Suprising even Doojoon who had always been taking care of Junhyung and a hard time at it.

 

” What did you tell him? ”

Doojoon asked Bom, amazed.

 

” Stuff. ”

She waved goodbye and went off before telling Doojoon, ” You sure are a reliable friend. “

 

It was indeniable.
All the days that Junhyung had ben drunk and crazy, it was Doojoon who had been faithfully taking care of him.
Following him around and making sure he was home safe.
He knew how badly hurt Junhyung is.
He hated seeing his bestfriend acting like that.
