• Come inside of my heart - IV of spades

Tzuyu's POV

I rarely went home nowadays because of the hectic schedule as the concert is quickly approaching. I slept at the office for I don't know how many days straight. Despite being busy the dating news can't get out of my head. Worrying about her feelings every single day.

When I saw the articles I have already decided to avoid Sana. She was seen in my apartment's building. It was my fault. I shouldn't have let her stay. It'll be dangerous for her to keep hanging around me and anyways this is a good chance to lessen the pain after a couple of days.

JYP called me about the dating news and I heard about what Sana told him. I did agree and assured him that I won't be ruining her career.

I had a chance to go home one day but saw Sana dozing off in the convenience store. Afraid to get caught I just looked at her to see if any weird guys would go to her.

When I realized Sana was probably waiting for me, I decided to look at her and protect her every time she waits for me. Throughout just one incident occurred. A drunk man was going to Sana's direction while eyeing her. I felt Sana getting scared. I hid at the corner and pulled him.

"Sober up and don't even think of going near that girl" I glared at him intensely

He looked scared just from looking at me and fled away.

I waited for Sana to go to her schedule before finally walking up to my apartment.

I immediately looked at the window and saw her walking slowly while looking at her back from time to time.

I never actually left her side and I can't avoid her so I'm trying to look out for her in the best way I can. I know how important this career is for Sana and what's important to her is important to me too. Yes, I think I like her that I'm willing to let go of her. I don't want to hurt her so avoiding her is the best way I could think of with no one getting hurt in the end. All I could do is assumption anyways. With no official confession, all I could do is assume she feels the same way to me.

May she like me too or not I have told myself to protect her with all my might. I will be leaving soon, this is the best way to let go of us. If there is even an us.

I have no plan to confess at all. These feelings shouldn't get out. It's a bomb.

I watched Sana go look for me and go to a schedule, pass by and finally go home. It hurts to see what she's doing and the urge to hug her is too strong. But all I could do is stare in the distance.

I found myself distracting myself from Sana by working hard and being busy in concert stuff. As I arrange and check the clothes of all Got7 members Bambam came to check on me.

"You fine? Need any help?" He asked as he sat on the chair next to the clothes

"Nah. Are you done with your practice?" I asked back

"Of course not but we have 10 mins. break" he said as she lazily sat

"So you decided to spend your break with me? That's sweet of you" I teased him and he looked at me in disbelief

"Your so full of yourself, as if. I just saw you as I was about to go back to the training room and decided to stop by" he said while shaking his head

A minute then passed and I was about to finish hanging the clothes.

"That was a lot, why do you all have to change too many clothes" I sighed as I pick the last batch of clothes

"Take a break. Water" he said and handed me a bottled water

"Isn't that yours?" I asked

"I have mine" and I looked at him suspiciously

"It's an extra. Stop the question, just drink" he said and stood up

"I'll be going now, take a break. Your working too hard" he said and ruffled my hair

"Yah! Where's my water?!" I heard Jackson shout

"Get it your own!" Bambam shouted and I just giggled and drank the water

As I finished arranging the clothes a phone call arrived and just reading the caller's name it made me smile already.

"I miss you~" I told the caller sweetly

"I miss you too~" the girl at the other line answered sweetly

"I can't wait to see you," she said with all affection

"I also want to see you too, don't worry only a couple of days are left before we reunite" I told her

"Uhm~ Don't forget to call me when you arrive here and the details of your arrival. I'll go to you in a flash" she said full of aegyo and I smiled with her voice

"I know you love me so much but don't make it too obvious, I feel cringey" I teased her and I can hear her stomping

"But since your cute, just continue doing it to me" I told her, all smiles

"Of course, you should feel honored I'm sweet to you like this" she sighed

"Yes ma'am I'm very much honored" I told her and she giggled

"Anyways I have more work to do. Unfortunately, I'll need to cut off this phone call. You should go and help my mom in her cafe miss waitress" I teased her and she scoffed at me

"Yes boss, I'll help your mom with all the chores boss don't worry. I should really get a raise" She teased me

"In your dreams" I laughed and we bid our farewell to each other with a smile

I sat for a while and went out of the arena where the concert was to occur. I saw a group of teenagers grouped with their phones out near the ticket booth but I didn't mind it and just looked at the sky before going back in.
