Painful seven days were over! Suga thought that now on their tours, he would be only focused on work and free from all the thoughts and worries! But he was anything but focused. He was heartbroken. He was missing Ah-In. He was blaming himself for getting too close, getting attached. Little things which seemed too special before - their simple little dates, their catch up call during the day, his chat with her as MYG - all those things, those habits were now paining.

Things that pained him the most was that she had not left any means to at least check up on her. He couldn't call, message, chat or anything else. He felt like he was drowning in the dark.

His life had became mechanical. He would wake up and like a machine he would perform, give interviews and go back to sleep. But there's still little hope somewhere deep inside his heart, that she will call, she will message or she will just suddenly turn up out of blue! All he could do was to hope for this pain to end soon!

-------------------------------------------------------

After intense brooding for a week, it was time for Ah-In to pick herself up.

She decided to focus on things which were under her control and forget about things over which she didn't have any control or influence.

Writing has always been an outlet for her emotions. So that's what she did. She poured all her emotions in her book. She started writing her next book.

Hours upon hours, she will seat in front of her bedroom window and write. When she would not be writing, she would lay her head in her grandma's lap and talk with her. Reminiscing about her childhood, her mother's childhood, her parents' love story and grandparents' golden years!

She kept herself occupied with these two things, because as soon as she would be away from these two things, her thoughts would stray to Suga. She was missing him terribly. She wanted to go back to him. But something inside her stopped her. Maybe it's the fear, she didn't know!

But till the time she gets the clarity, she would not get back together. So she had to wait and go through the pain.

Writing was healing her. It also gave her somewhat clarity on her own thoughts. She decided to stay near the warmth and affection of her grandparents till it was the time to move back to city, that is, a week before Daesan Literary Award night.

-----------------------------------------------------

It had been twenty five days since Suga met Ah-In for the last time. He was now in Incheon for the last two concerts of their tour. Once the tour ends, they'll head back to Seoul where Suga was to complete few of his pending task and then head home to Daegu for few days.

He needed a break. A break from everything! Maybe love of family and comfort of home would soothe his aching heart.

He was again lost in his thoughts when his phone buzzed. He looked at it and there was a notification from his long forgotten insta account. He hadn't open it since Ah-In deleted all her social media accounts. There was a message from some unknown account.

Ah-In:
Hi, this is Ah-In. This is my temporary Id, just to speak with you.
Hope you are doing well. It's been long!

Suga just stared at the screen, wondering if he really had got her message or if it was one of his daydream where he would imagine recieving Ah-In's message or call.

When reality finally hit him, he felt relieved, more than anything else, relieved. She was fine, she was safe! And at that moment, it meant a world to Suga!

MYG:

Hey, I'm so happy to hear from you!
Indeed it's been long!
I'm just glad that you are alright.
You are alright, right?
