"Even though I know you're not there
I was playing back a thousand memories, baby
Thinking 'bout everything we've been through
Maybe I've been going back too much lately"


*****

Final examinations end in the blink of an eye. As promised, Renjun will hang out with Donghyuck at the specific time and place that he stated the day after the final.

Little Picasso:

SunBrighterThanShine:

Don't pull that fucking pout on me

I'll be there in 10

Renjun slide his phone in his side pockets. Eyes wandering around at the area in front of him. He let Chenle spend his remaining times with Jisung because they deserve that. He is the one making them separate. And he did feel guilty about it.

After 10 minutes, he saw a running figure approaching him as fast as they can. And yes, it Donghyuck. He run until he crash into Renjun making both of them slam to the café's floor.

"Ouch, that hurt." Renjun hissing.

"Hurt?? Are you kidding me? what about my heart? It more hurt than your bruise." Donghyuck stand up and helping the older to steady himself.

Renjun look at Donghyuck, palms on his soft cheeks that pretty much wet from the tears. "I'm sorry. I couldn't bring myself to tell you. I know you'll try to spend more time to persuade me to stay rather than studying for exams. I don't wanna be the reason you have to extend a year." He giggled while caressing the younger's cheeks.

Donghyuck frown. Not happy with the answer. Both hands at the smaller waist. He look down, averting to look at Renjun's eyes.

"I'm sorry hyuck. Im not that strong as you think I am. Everyday are so tormenting to stay beside them. Smiling happily, faking my own smile is hard. Hyuck, you are the best person to understand me right?

"Please let me go. I need this so fucking much that I will never regret of letting go. I'm sorry for being selfish. I'm sorry of being so weak. But believe me, if I could handle this feeling, I would never leave you Hyuck. You know that." He pulled the younger to his arms. Hugging him closer to his heart. Tears start to falling.

Before Donghyuck can say something, the announcement of Renjun and Chenle's flight has been announced. Making the older to separate their hugs and hurriedly to collect their things. "Text me your new number. I swear if you didn't do it, I will fly to China with you and drag you back here."

The walk to the entrance feel heavy. Filled with crying Jisung, Chenle and Donghyuck. Donghyuck cling to Renjun like clinging to his dear life. Jisung and Chenle keep rubbing each other backs to comfort one another.

Upon seeing the police that checked their tickets, Jisung look at Renjun. "Won't you tell Jeno hyung that you're leaving? I'm not brave to handle his enrage." He tried to joke.

Renjun look at the younger, smiling fondly. "I'm sorry Jisung. It's better if he didn't know at all. Let him forget me with time. And with time, everything will be forgotten. Don't worry." he pat the younger.

"As if-"

"Hyuck stop. I don't wanna fight here."

Donghyuck bite his lower lips. Holding himself back from yelling at his now will be gone best friend. He sighed. "Promise to call me. I don't care there's a time difference, just call me."

"I will Hyuck. And you too Sungie. Take care of yourself. I'm sorry I take Chenle away from you." The smile getting bitter and bitter as he speak to the youngers.

"It's fine hyung. You need him more than I do. I can come over anytime I'm free. So it's fine." He gulped down the lump in his throat, "Hyung?"

"Yes?"

"Be happy. Forget about us in here. Be the most happiest person in the world. I mean it hyung." Jisung hug Renjun tightly.

Listening to the younger, Renjun's heart swell. He didn't know how much the younger care for him to say those wishes. He is lucky to have Jisung in his life, even though he is the younger brother of the boy who is making him miserable until now.

"I will Jisung. I will."

"Ge, let's go." Chenle pat Jisung's back. They shared one last kiss together.

Donghyuckand Renjun holding hands until the end. Until border separating them for beingtogether. He whispered to Donghyuck's ears one last time. 

"I wish you are the one I fell in love with. So things won't turn into this." He smiled bitterly.
