Wonwoo's pov

   2 more years have passed ever since the day that the promise was made, the promise where we would always be there with each other. You could say that a lot has happened in the past 2 years. Soonyoung and Junhui finally graduated as degree holders. From what I've heard from them, Soonyoung decided to continue working at the clothing store he worked before and for Junhui he is now a permanent staff at MyMy Pet Store.

   Chan is studying performing arts at the college where Seungcheol is studying. Seungcheol is still studying paediatrics while Jeonghan has already graduated last year and he is now working at Caratland Day-care. Why did he work there you might ask? Well, just one reason, Jeonghan adores kids.

   Speaking of kids, I have a love-hate relationship with kids. I love having kids and playing with them, it's just that they could be a handful sometimes. But for Mingyu, he always wanted to have kids. He loves them to the point where he would constantly annoy me with his whines and puppy eyes.

   Not gonna lie, I love to have kids with Mingyu. The problem is that we don't have enough money to have a family, Mingyu is still on his internship and I'm still not ready. Why I'm not ready to have a kid it's because I fear that Mingyu will leave me. I feared that everything we had together before would be gone and I didn't want to risk that. And there is also another thing that I'm worried about. I don't know if this was related but I've been feeling sick lately.

   I've been experiencing headaches, fatigue and vomiting for a couple of days. Mingyu noticed what was happening to me but I just told him that it was a stomach bug or it's just nothing serious. I kept convincing myself that I was fine and it'll be over in no time but I was wrong.

   Up until today I still felt sick, my nausea is getting worse and even my headaches. I felt more tired than before and at times I would lose my appetite. It was up to a point where I would find some food disgusting or smelt bad but they were just your normal everyday food. Even at work, I would constantly feel tired and wanting to throw up for no reason.

   I was working today and as usual the restaurant was packed. After the lunch hour was over, the atmosphere finally quiet down a little and we all managed to get some rest. Since I was having my break, I decided to head out for some fresh air to clear out my mind. And there is also something that I needed to do.

3rd person pov

   Wonwoo was walking along the sidewalks with his hands tucked inside the pockets of his hoodie and his eyes wandering around the area. Not much has changed for the past 2 years, the streets still as busy as it is, people walking around town and still the same stores that are operating around the area.

   After a few minutes of walking, Wonwoo arrived at a nearby pharmacy. Wonwoo opened the door and a wave of cool air hit him. He looked around the store wanting to find the stuff that he needed. He was searching and walking in circles and finally his eyes landed on an aisle that he has been searching, the maternity area.

   He looked up and down before his gaze landed on the shelf with different types of pregnancy tests sold. He decided to buy 3 tests, all from different brands just to be sure. Wonwoo took the tests and handed them to the cashier. The worker took the tests and scanned them while Wonwoo was looking down at his feet.

   "Are these for your wife?" Wonwoo heard the worker say and immediately held his head up, only to see a middle-aged woman. "U-Um yeah." Wonwoo forced a smile. "You look really young to be a dad." The worker said, which made Wonwoo chuckle nervously, he didn't know what to answer her. After he was done paying, Wonwoo went out of the pharmacy and headed back to the restaurant.

   Just like that, night has come and it was already time to close the store. Wonwoo was at the cashier doing the calculations. Hansol and Seungkwan cleaning the tables and floors, making sure that the restaurant is clean. Mr and Mrs Kim preparing the ingredients for the next day while Seokmin was cleaning the kitchen.

   Minseo went home early since she has school work to complete. Hansol and Seungkwan were the first ones to head home followed by Seokmin the Mr and Mrs Kim. Before they were about to head out, Mrs Kim headed to Wonwoo's direction. "Wonwoo dear, are you done with the calculations?" Wonwoo looked up to Mrs Kim and shook his head. "I'm almost done, I just need a little more time. You guys can head home first Mrs Kim, I'll close the shop."

   "Are you sure Wonwoo? You should get more rest since you've been feeling unwell." Mrs Kim sighed and Wonwoo gave her a reassuring smile. "I'm really fine Mrs Kim. Don't worry about me, you head home first." Wonwoo said and Mrs Kim nodded. "Alright, then we'll head home first. Goodnight my dear." "Goodnight." Wonwoo smiled and waved goodbye at the old couple.

   Wonwoo watched as the couple went out and out of his sight. He then looked down and continued doing his calculations. Up until the end of his calculations, he suddenly heard the door open. "I'm sorry we're clos-" He looked up and before he could continue, he saw Mingyu coming in. "Mingyu?" Wonwoo quickly got up and gave his boyfriend a hug. "The one and only." Mingyu smiled and pecked Wonwoo's lips.

   "I thought you already went home?" "Can't I see my favourite person? Do you want me to go home that badly?" Mingyu pouted and started fake crying. Wonwoo shook his head and giggled. "You know that's not what I meant. You just finished work and it must be tiring for you. I wanted you to have plenty of rest." Wonwoo explained and cupped Mingyu's cheeks before squeezing them.

   "I know but still I really missed you. I couldn't see you for the whole day today, it sucks." Mingyu pouted and Wonwoo smiled a little. "Well, you get to see me now, right? Anyways, I'm done with work so let's head home." Wonwoo gave another hug to Mingyu and went to get his bag, clutching it tightly.

   The couple then head out and Wonwoo locked the doors. When Wonwoo turned around, he saw that Mingyu was already seated on the scooter holding the helmet. "Hyung." Mingyu held out the helmet to Wonwoo and he raised his free hand. "Don't say anything, just wear it. I'll be fine and you're my priority." Mingyu said, making Wonwoo sigh. Wonwoo wore the helmet and hop on the scooter and Mingyu drove them home.
