HYUKJAE POV

I went back to the lobby but Donghae already gone and he is not there anymore. I ruffled my hair and sighed. Am I dreaming or had hallucination?

But... Kangin hyung! I ran back to the elevator and press the button quickly. When I reached my floor, I went to Kangin hyung directly. Fortunately he didn’t lock the door so I can come inside.

“Hyung! Kangin hyung!!”

He was texting and looked so frustrated.

“What is it, Hyukjae?”

“Donghae!? Did he contact you??”

“Yes.” He still texting and ignored me.

“What didn’t you tell me?” I’m getting frustrated.

He looked at me and sighed, “That’s why I texted you and told you to come here quickly right?”

“Oh.. yes.. But hyung! I saw him on the lobby!! Did you meet him?” I asked him eagerly.

“Yes I met him for a while.” But Kangin hyung looked back to his phone and texting.

“How can he be here?? Could you please talk to me and stop texting?”

“Hyukjae, its’ about the concert at his country and nothing more cause the promoter here is really killing me and I have a lot of things to do. Now, could you please go back to your stylish noona’s room and prepare yourself?” He looked at me sternly and I just obeyed him, went to stylish noona’s room.

Kangin hyung guided SuJu to the press conference room and we waited at the waiting room for the MC call us.

“3 minutes.” the local promoter informed us and we prepared our self, the make up artist noona gave a touch up.

“And let’s welcome the most famous K-Pop idol, SuJu!!”

And that’s the clue for us to come out to the stage.

“Hello everyone, we are SuJu!” We greeted the media and then we sat. I couldn’t concentrate since I kept thinking about Donghae until Sungmin and Siwon must nudge me when the MC asked something to me.

“Let’s continue to question, the media are allows to give them question. Only one per media.” The MC talked in English.

As usual Sungmin and Siwon who can speak English well answered the questions and I just stared the floor, didn’t get what are they talked about.

“Okay, next question. Lady in white.”

“Donghae?” Sungmin said and I lifted my head.

Donghae sat beside the woman who wore a white shirt. Donghae smiled and Sungmin waved to them.

I just stared at Donghae and smiled back. I felt so full on my chest. Donghae is really here and he attended the press conference.

Donghae wore a black shirt and as usual looks effortless beautiful.

“ For each member, What is your favorite song from your new album?”

“I like SPY.” Siwon said.

I just stayed silent and looked at Donghae until Siwon nudge me again. “Hyung.”

“I Miss You.” I said without thinking twice and all of them looked at me confusedly. My mouth gapped.

“Oh.. he means Missing You. It’s one of our old song actually.” Sungmin saved my day and he diverted the topic quickly and told Kyuhyun to dance our new routines.

After few moments, the press conference was finished and the media allowed taking a picture of us while we are posing on stage. Each media tried to get a better position and my eyes searching for Donghae again but he is nowhere to be seen.

And we were directed back to our waiting room cause we would have another private session with some medias.

“Hyung! I saw Donghae!” Sungmin clapped his hands happily.

“Donghae? The boy who wore black shirt next to the woman who asked about favorite song?” Kyuhyun asked.

“Wow! You right, Min! He is cute!” Siwon said and I threw Sungmin a death glared but he seems didn’t get it.

“Okay boys! Let’s start the first session.” Kangin hyung said and we started 3 sessions with different media and Kangin hyung went out side.

When he came back to the room, he smiled widely and there’s 3 other persons trailed behind him. Lady in white, a girl I saw somewhere before and DONGHAE!

“They only have 10 minutes and we must go to the venue. Let’s record a greeting for their country concert.” Kangin hyung said but this time his eyes looked at me, smiling.

A lady in white come approached us and explained what we have to say but my mind cannot concentrate cause Donghae took photos of us.

Kangin hyung tapped my shoulder and whispered, ”Happy belated birthday, Hyukjae.”

Donghae arranged the chairs and informed us to sit and some of us were standing behind the chair.

“Donghae! Donghae!! I remember you!” Sungmin said and clapped his hands again. Donghae smiled happily and then he looked at me.

“When I say 3, you guys can start the greeting or read from the prompter.”

After we shoot few times and got the best greeting, Kangin hyung said that we must prepared to the next schedules.

Kyuhyun pulled me to the side, “So is that Donghae? He is cute hyung and I’m sure he has a crush on you too.”

“Really??” My eyes widened.

“Hyukjae.” Donghae called me and I turned to him.

“I’m sorry I was late but this is for you.” He gave a paper bag and hand me a shake hand, I grabbed his hand but instead of shake his hand, I pulled him into my embrace. I hugged him tightly and murmured, “Thank you and I miss you.”

I hugged him for a few moments and when I released him, his face was blushed red. I still held his hand.

“Donghae!” Sungmin pulled Donghae and he let go of my hand.

“Donghae, I remember you! I’m not breaking mu promise, right? Are you gonna watch the show tonight?” Sungmin said and held Donghae’s hands. My heart was so burnt.

“Thank you still remember me and yes I will watch the show tonight! Do your best!”

“No!! Thank you for coming!!” Sungmin squeezed Donghae into his embrace and tapped his head when he released his hug. Donghae looked back at me but Siwon interfered.

“Hi Donghae, my name is Siwon. Thank you for coming.” Siwon came between and hugged Donghae too. He gave Donghae his perfect smile and never once in my life, I really want to choke Siwon.

“Let’s go boys!” Kangin hyung said.

So we went out from the room and headed to elevator, I handed Kangin hyung the paper bag from Donghae. I walked faster to Donghae side and held his hand again. He gasped in shocked but he smiled. “Good luck for the show.”

“Why..you..don’t call me?”

“What?”

“Bag..! my number!” I gestured him a paper and pointed at his backpack.

“What do you mean?” Donghae looks confused but his eyes widened.

“Yours???” And he hit his forehead.

“Hyukjae, quickly.” Everyone already inside the elevator and Kangin hyung pulled me inside and I must let his hand go.

Everyone waved to each other with Donghae’s friends but me and Donghae only stared at each other. His face looks full of regretful and tears almost dropped from his eyes.

“Donghae!” But it’s too late again, the elevator door were closed.
