Yunho stopped his footsteps in front of the apartment and stared at the door for a while. So many thoughts and feelings passed through him just by a glance at the door. It’s been over eight years. To be exact, it’s been eight years and six months since that fateful day. The apartment which was once their home with full of precious memories, once filled with their love and laughter, once made him feel safe and loved with Jae Joong’s warm welcomes was now greeting him with some unfamiliar bitter cold atmosphere. The way the apartment welcomes him now was so cold that it sends shivers down to his spines. He suddenly felt like crying.

       Everything was not the same anymore no matter how hard he tried to trick his mind, the truth just didn’t go away. He used to try so hard not to move even a single little piece of the things inside the apartment so that he could lie himself that Jae Joong was still there with him….so that he could pretend that Jae Joong was just out for a while for his class or for some grocery shopping…but come on, who was he kidding. He, of all people, clearly knew what exactly happened to Jae Joong, how he had to let Jae Joong slip out of his hand on that day. In the end, he couldn’t deny the fact that Jae Joong was not there with him anymore. Every little things of the apartment were telling him that Jae Joong was not there anymore and all his efforts are in vain. That was why he had to leave this place to accept the fact that Jae Joong was gone. Like forever. And he'd never thought a day like this would come.

            Yeah, not the same….not only was this apartment, his life also was not the same anymore without Jae Joong’s existence. He let his sad eyes lingered on the door as if it was transparent and he could see all the sweet memories happened inside that apartment through that door. Then he smiled vaguely by the thoughts of seeing Jae Joong again after all this time. Yunho opened the door slowly and stepped into the apartment carefully. As soon as he set foot in the apartment, the flashbacks started to kick into his head made him feel so lost and regret again and he wondered how they ended up like this. Then he let out a heavy sigh and whispered.
