"Why are you laughing?"
She continued to giggle. "A giant you are, you're still a cute puppy to me."
He smirked as he moved closer to her. His face inches away from hers. Feeling his warm breath on her lips, her heart pounded faster and harder.
"Sho...

" Longing who's dear. "

"Care to tell me what's going on in your mind?"
I turned my head and caught the worried pair of eyes, staring at me. I pulled my lips into a smile and broke our gaze, looking back at the scenery below the rooftop. The green and yellow leaves of the trees swayed with the soft wind and I closed my eyes feeling it brushing my cheeks. "Nothing is going on," I answered.
"Doesn't seem like it." I heard the sound of metal and I opened my eyes to see Taehyun leaning himself on the railing as his eyes were gazing down at the students walking below.
"As expected, you always see through me." I chuckled, shaking my head.
"Was it him?" Taehyun turned his head, his sharp eyes on me. Hearing him say that, my heart squeezed as I knew who he meant. I grip tightly to the railing, swallowing the pain that attempted to emerge. "You know it's okay to cry. I will be here to lend you a shoulder." Taehyun added and I felt my heart warm, knowing someone cared for me.
"Thanks, Tae but this is my problem. I can't drag you into this." I said though I very much needed comfort. I couldn't just depend on Taehyun all the time and I am old enough to solve my own problems, especially when it comes to feelings.
I didn't know when or how I fell in love with him. It took his disappearance for me to realise that he was someone special in my heart, someone that I could feel safe with. It frustrated me how this feeling grew when I could never see him again. It's suffocating to love someone I could never be with and that I could only imagine being with. I had cried and cried but was it worth it? My voice and cries could never reach him because he wasn't here. He had left. Beomgyu left me.
"But your problems are my problems," Taehyun murmured and I turned my head, raising an eyebrow before chuckling.
"If you say so.....why don't you give me a hug?" I teased, opening my arms wide. I knew Taehyun didn't like physical affection and he always avoided me every time I wanted a hug. Only occasionally he would give in but most of the time he ran away like a cat. Seeing his disgusted expression, I laughed as I lowered my arms, knowing he won't accept it but unexpectedly, he engulfed me with his warmth.
His arms wrapped around my waist as his hand patted my back. "It's going to be okay, so stay strong till then." He cooed. I didn't expect how comforting a hug can be. It was better than just relieving through words and it gave better assurance.
At that moment, I was overwhelmed by emotions and I buried my head further into his warm embrace to hide away the tears that had started flowing out from my eyes and I clenched my jaw, trying to prevent any sound from leaving my lips but my body gave it away as I trembled.
