Baekhyun called Chanyeol when he arrived at the condo. Chanyeol isn't here yet, so Baekhyun wonders where he is. He's been calling Chanyeol for a few minutes now. But still, he can't reach him.

He stopped when he heard someone open the door. He immediately approached, and he saw Chanyeol. They stared at each other but he was surprised when Chanyeol suddenly averted his gazes and passed him as if he hadn't seen him.

"Chanyeol? Where have you been? Have you eate-"

"I'm tired. I was at Junmyeon's coffee shop earlier. He asked me for some help." Baekhyun felt the coldness from Chanyeol. He was starting to get bothered. There is something wrong. "I see..." He mutters as he played his fingers. Chanyeol rushed to the fridge and got some water to drink. Baekhyun was just looking at him.

"Chanyeol...is there something wrong?" Baekhyun can't help but ask. "Junmyeon asked me earlier if I could work in a coffee shop for a while. He doesn't have enough employees, so I agreed. You're busy too, aren't you?" Chanyeol looked at Baekhyun with his cold eyes. Baekhyun frowned as he walks towards him.

"Chanyeol-"

"Just like I said, I'm tired." And again, Chanyeol passed Baekhyun and was about to go to the room when he talked again without looking back. "Oh right, Maybe I will be busy as you, so I'll stay with Junmyeon for a moment." He added as he completely closed the door.

Baekhyun felt his tears running from his cheeks. He was upset. He doesn't know what to do. He keeps thinking about what he had done or why Chanyeol is treating him like that.

An hour passed.

Baekhyun enters the room, and he sees Chanyeol sleeping. Tears began to form in his eyes. He didn't like what was happening. Baekhyun still goes to bed beside Chanyeol, but it didn't face him. Baekhyun has still felt the pain because he didn't know why Chanyeol was cold to him.

Next morning. Baekhyun opened his eyes when Chanyeol was no longer beside him. His tears instantly flowed.

Junmyeon's jaw almost dropped when he saw Chanyeol carrying a bag. "What is that!?" Chanyeol just smiled. "Can I stay in the room upstairs with you? I swear I will do my best to work here." Junmyeon snapped his forehead.

"What happened? How about Baekhyun?" Junmyeon asked, and Chanyeol smile immediately fades away. "Did you argued with him again?" Junmyeon asked.

"Hyung, can you not mention his name right now? I'll tell you later. Not now." Chanyeol looked down. Junmyeon sighs as he patted Chanyeol's back. "Aigoo, this kid...alright! We'll talk later. For now, bring your bag upstairs." Chanyeol nodded.

Junmyeon's coffee shop has a rooftop. On that Rooftop, there was another room the right size, so Chanyeol immediately went upstairs. He immediately saw the beautiful scene. He sniffed fresh air. He was upset. He left Baekhyun so he wouldn't say bad things. He does not want emotion to take the lead because he may regret it, and maybe right now, this is the best option he has.
