"What-" Joshua turns back to look at Jeonghan hearing the sudden love confession. But the blonde was already gone leaving him alone in the middle of the street. "Hey? ... Where did you go?... Come out...... I don't even know your name."
After coming back to the apartment he goes straight toward his study table, without eating anything or resting. He had his final year's exam coming up in a few days. So after coming back from Uni and finishing his shift at the cafe, he has to study at night. So forget about sleeping either. Joshua always gives his hundred percent in everything. He practices till his body gives up. And of course, he doesn't want to repeat the semester. He is already staying in a rented apartment, so he can't afford it for one more year. But the whole day of being busy was making his body more exhausted. And now he has another thing to worry about. A blonde mysterious boy just said I love you to him and then disappeared.
What was that? Am I seriously imagining things? Or is he a ghost or something? Oh God, I need to see a therapist.
He sighs heavily in frustration after continuously staring at the book in front of him for half an hour. His eyes are getting droopy. He squeezes the eyes shut and then opens them wide in an effort to stay awake. Ahhhh...I can't concentrate at all. I'm feeling so tired. My mind is going back to him every time. Wish I could see him right now.
"You called me?" A familiar voice says behind him.
"Ahhh......" Joshua gasps in fear and falls from his chair. "Y-You."
"Why do you get scared every time you see me?" Jeonghan says sitting at his study table.
"Because you always show up without any warning" Joshua yells at him while standing up from the floor and brushing his clothes.
"It's my style."
"And what are you doing in my house? How did you even come inside?"
"Umm... Aren't you the one who wanted to see me?" Jeonghan says raising an eyebrow.
"B-But... How do you... How do you know that?" Joshua gets flustered and surprised that there's no way he could know about it. He never said it out loud.
"Well, let's not talk about it. You go take a shower. The dinner will be ready when you'll come." The blonde boy says closing his books on the table.
"What are you talk-"
"No questions. Or you want me to come with you?" Jeonghan smirks.
"N-No...No. I'm going." His cheeks showed a flush of pink at the thought.
Reluctantly or say forcefully Joshua goes to the bathroom ditching his studies. He chooses not to pressure his mind thinking about what a stranger was doing in his house or how he came here. It's useless to think about it. So he goes with what he was told to do. But he had to agree that a warm shower did make him feel relaxed a bit.
After dressing up in comfy pajamas, he goes straight to the kitchen and finds a variety of foods decorated on the table. "Wow... It looks so delicious. How did you make all of this? Did you bring the stuff with you?"
"Ahh...You ask so many questions" Jeonghan comes closer to him and starts to ruffle his wet hair with a dry towel. Joshua lets him do it without saying a word. Suddenly a fur from the towel tickles his nose and makes him sneeze.
