It has been about a week since she opened her eyes and at that exact time Haechan would always be by her side, giving her company and helping her 24/7. Zhi Ping's prolonged sleep made her slightly weak, and will start to regain her power once she's stronger and healthier.

Neither between two of them would even bother to start a conversation. It's just a limit of taking a walk at the garden and eating, other than that, they would prevent meeting each other and try to spend time alone. That's the only way for them to regain strength and not lose conscious.

It's time for dinner.

As usual, Haechan would knock on her door and she would walk ahead leaving Haechan behind. Everything that happened just seem to be too unreal, and her mind wouldn't stop thinking about giving up and going back, to go away from Haechan as much as possible and live in a different world.

Her silence was disturbed by the constant knocking on her door and she begun to walk slowly but surely. Zhi Ping knew it was Haechan, and all she can do is to stay silent. On the other side, Haechan can't really contain the awkward atmosphere between them so he would try to start a conversation.

Which at the end, will be disappointing for him. Haechan feels as if he's talking to an imaginary person, being ignored surely is one of the worst things to experience. But this time, something inside her urge her to talk, leaving Haechan a bit dumbfounded.

"You alright ? You look pale, do you need anything ?"

Zhi Ping sat up straight and looked down at her food, having no will to eat at all. "Everything isn't right, I wanna go home." She still avoided eye contact, but all the things in her mind and what she say is true, she just wants to go back home.

Haechan's face fell, and it shows clear disappointment. No one expected to be here, and no one wants to be here. But somehow stupid things happen and now it's all such a burden to them. They're just teenagers living their life, suddenly everything just changes to them being humans with special abilities and getting powers. How does it ever make sense ?

Haechan puts down his fork and grabbed her hand, which to his surprise was still on that exact place and tried to think words to comfort and encourage her. "Everything would be alright, I promise."

Without him noticing, Zhi Ping dropped a tear and removed her hand from his grip. "I'm sorry, but if I ever thought about leaving you behind, and letting you deal with this all this burden alone. Then would you be fine and alright with that ?"
