*Third Person's POV*

*Next day*

New didn't return back the whole night yesterday and Tay was worried and waiting for him to come back. Tay stood in the corridor and looked at the dorm entrance most of the time.

Tay was feeling guilty from the time New just walked away in the heavy rain. The words he said are not the words to be used as a simple joke and it might actually trigger someone but Tay got that after he said those words.

It was evening and there was still no trace of New. 

Tay went to the restaurant and asked Mook about New.

"New? He won't come today. Why?" Mook asked looking at Tay.

"Nothing." Tay said nervously and left the place.

Tay felt guilty so he couldn't call New on his mobile and waited for him the whole day but after talking to Mook and knowing that he won't come to the restaurant he started getting more worried.

Tay started calling New continuously on his mobile but there was no reply from the other end. Tay knew New wouldn't pick up cause of him but he didn't stop calling.

At night...

Tay was still in the corridor calling New when he heard a mobile ringtone coming from the stairs.

New slowly came towards the corridor when Tay saw him and then cut the call.

Tay and New were looking at each other... but New's eyes looked lifeless.

"Where were you?" Tay asked worriedly.

New kept silent and then walked past Tay and stood in front of his room.

"I... I am sorry... I... I didn't mean it." Tay said with a sad expression and feeling guilty.

New opened his room door and was about to go in when Tay held his hand.

New shook Tay's hand away and said without looking at him "Stay away."

Tay stood still and New closed the door while not even sparing a glance at Tay.

*Next day*

At the table in the park...

Earth, Tay, Gun and New were at the table and they were doing their own thing quietly.

"Gun... I brought you a drink." Off said sweetly to Gun while taking a seat at the table.

"Thank you Papii." Gun said smiling.

Earth looked at them weirdly and said "What?"

"Gun sweetly calls me that." Off said smiling happily and Earth sighed.

"Hey, Tay..." Earth called Tay cause normally Tay was the first one to react when he saw them.

But Tay was nervously glancing at New while holding the book in his hand.

"Tay... Hey, Tay!" Earth said shouting.

"Huh?" Tay said.

"What are you doing?" Earth asked.

"Nothing." Tay said slowly.

"Are you daydreaming?" Off said chuckling and Tay kept silent.

"What's wrong New? You look pale." Gun said staring at New's face.

"I am okay." New said with a light smile.

Tay looked at New and felt concerned cause New's complexion wasn't looking good.
