Every step she took that brought her closer to the place felt heavy, a tingling feeling continuously ringing on her brain. The whole way there felt shorter than her usual, as she continue puzzling a way to break her idea to him.

Tell them you're soulmates then ask them to throw that away should be easy, she sarcastically thought to herself.

Soon reaching the familiar Computer Cafe, she stood in front of it for a while, contemplating whether to do it now or the next day.

Shaking her head, Donghee took a deep breath before deciding to go in.

"Can I talk to you?"

Although spoken alongside hers, Jeno's voice surfaced more to her hearing presumably with the tone he used.

It wasn't a harsh tone, but rather a gentle one, contradicting his volume, but regardless, it affected Donghee in a way as it sent a shiver down her spine.

On the contrary, hers was quite formal-toned, to say the least.

After leaving a highly confused Park Jisung, a short moment of silence sat between them as they stare at each other's eyes, both waiting for the other's words.

"Do you feel it too?",   "I think we're soulmates", even though they spoke chorally, it's as clear their reactions how both of them are aware of each other's roles.

Jeno's lips tug into a half-smile in relief, knowing his explanation don't need to be as long as he envisioned knowing that she already knows, "Yes.I sensed it too"

"How long did you know?"

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───

"Maybe 2 to 3 days ago.. I was sure it's you just yesterday, you?"

She shrugged, still trying to put together the proper words, "Listen Jeno, this whole..", Donghee paused, turning her eyes away from his bright and hopeful eyes, "Yeah I just knew like a day ago.."

"Wow all these time!Who would've known we're ma-"

Finally regaining the courage she lost when seeing his eyes, Donghee decided to cut him off, "Yes.  But I don't really take those seriously all right?"

Still keeping his smile intact Jeno chuckled it off, "It'll take time Donghee. I'll wait for the time we're both ready to accept it"

"No Jeno listen.. You can forget about me being your.. Mate because I'm giving you the chance to find yourself a girl you actually like"

The small smile he put up a while ago had faltered to oblivion as the words sink in further in his mind.

But you're..my mate..

"I can't just deny you as my mate and neither can you!"

"I just did Je-"

A loud thud interrupted their conversation, causing both to turn to check only to see.

Minhyung who's eyes wide open with his mouth hung open, and Haechan with a less surprised reaction.

Clearing his throat, Minhyung approached Jeno, firmly holding him by the arm, "I'm sorry.. Jeno's fever is quite high right now.. Let's go home Jeno-ah"

The distance widens between the small family and Donghee, his brother spoke again, whispering, "We need to talk Jeno"
