Despite the circumstances of his situation and the angry text messages he received from Kyungsoo the night before, Chanyeol woke up with a peaceful calm. He couldn't figure out why that was. Maybe it was because he wasn't in the city and, for once, had sleep that didn't involve the background noises of sirens and cars. Or maybe it was the house itself. Baekhyun didn't miss a detail in making every room in the house comfortable and warm.

He took a quick shower and slipped into the clothes that Baekhyun had lent to him. It wasn't until he looked in the mirror that he saw his appearance and realized something: Baekhyun had given him the clothes he had left behind.

Bitterness washed over him. He didn't know whether Baekhyun had done it on purpose, which Chanyeol knew he probably didn't. There were questions in his mind as to why Baekhyun still had them. They were old. He hadn't worn them in years. He left them in behind.

Why hadn't Baekhyun gotten rid of them?

The more he looked in the mirror, the more Chanyeol realized he looked the way he used to be. It was funny how a few old clothes and no hair products made him look the way he was two to three years ago. But that was contrary to how he felt. It wasn't funny. It was bitter and it burned something inside of him. Maybe it was guilt. Chanyeol didn't know. He just wanted to get through six more days and go home.
