“I didn’t reply, I just looked away and I couldn’t speak all of the sudden. Where is Jeno?” I asked worried looking around for him again. Did I break his heart? What have I done?

Renjun gave me a glance that made me stress a bit. He hesitated to answer and it didn’t look like he had lost his word. Where is jeno? Is he fine? Did something happen to him?

The speed of my pulse insured as sweat was dripping down my face. I tried to move from bed dealing with the wounds and scars on my body until Renjun yelled and asked me to lay in bed.

“Jeno admitted you here and called me, so I came over but before I came inside I saw some tears on his face” Renjun mumbled pinching his hand. Did I make Jeno cry? Why does it hurt so badly hearing that Jeno was in pain?

“He had a big day planned for you today. It was first just a nice view up in the mountain, then the Eiffel tower and a walk around the museum with a pyramid on top. I didn’t think he would confess already at the start” he said sounding disappointed and broken even if he wasn’t the one who was crying.

I didn’t know what to say. Did Jeno do this for my book or for us to fall in love? Is this what he meant with wrong intentions? Did Jeno want me to fall for him and used the book as a cover story?

“Did he tell you anything about his appearance?” he asked looking at me trying to keep a poker face. What was Renjun hiding from me? Once again I couldn’t reply. All of the words faded away as my voice no longer existed.

“Jeno is leaving in two days if you don’t count today. He is done with the movie” Renjun said making my heart turn into ashes. Why is he leaving? I haven’t given my answer yet, why isn’t he asking again?

Before I could ask Renjunt to stop Jeno from leaving so early Mark walked in with my report. He looked at me with a smile while I couldn’t even fake a small one. I glanced away and Renjun took my hand.

“Whatever you decide, you don’t have that much time. So hurry for everyone's good” he whispered sadly. Standing up and he walked out giving a hug to Mark as Mark looked at me smiling like a child.

“Mark I have been lying or hiding something from you” is whats I wish to say but I am not brave as someone else. “I am happy you came but you should call work to inform them where you are,” I said trying to smile.

He nodded his head and left me in a room filled with guiltiness. I can't stop thinking about what Renjun said. He is leaving too fast, we didn’t even get to spend three days with each other. Now it's not about the book anymore, it's all about him leaving when I want him to stay.
