The days flew by faster than Hoseok expected and in what felt like a blink of an eye a whole week passed. School was long forgotten as two boys spent all the time at a comfort of a mansion that once was Hoseok's personal prison.

Yoongi was healing day by day. He still didn't talk much, but there was progress which Hoseok never failed to notice. The way Yoongi's lips would twitch a smile when the brunette said something funny or the way he enthusiastically ran into the kitchen whenever the younger announced it was time to eat.

The two had never been so close before. They really used that time for bonding. Thanks to Yoongi's not talkative mood, the couple learnt how to understand what the other had on mind through small gestures. Sometimes eyes would tell much more than the words and Hoseok was beyond happy that now he could read emotions behind the older's eyes as an open book.

Every night Hoseok spent with Yoongi. He slept by his side to be there if the nightmare returns, but it never did. After that one time Yoongi hadn't dreamt of his father anymore. Talking about him, a day earlier Mrs. Min visited the boys and told them good news that the police had finally found him! He was caught when he tried to leave a city by a car. It turned out he was in hurry and didn't pay attention to speed limits. That's how two policemen found him and after he was asked to show driver's license, they realized that he was wanted for crime. In short, Mr. Min was currently behind bars and he would remain there until the end of investigation. For Min family there was nothing to worry about anymore. The lawyer was positive that the abusive father would get severe punishment.

Meantime, Hoseok and Yoongi couldn't keep from Jiwoo the whole situation with the silver haired boy. So with the older's consent, Hoseok told her the truth. To say Jiwoo got angry would be underestimation. She was in rage and would probably kill Mr. Min with her bare hands if only Hoseok admitted where he was. However, Yoongi couldn't hold back a small smile about how protective of him was Jiwoo.

Since the older's bruised back was much better now and Yoongi started slowly acting like his old self, Hoseok suggested to return to school and surprisingly, the silver haired boy agreed immediately. It must have been he really missed his friends.

But before returning back to real world, the boys decided to fully enjoy their last day of 'freedom'. Hoseok took his boyfriend on a walk because the doctor recommended to do it often for Yoongi's mental health.

It was a typical day of March. They wore warm clothes because it still was cold outside. The spring had already arrived but it didn't feel like that. The day before was a heavy rain and the ground was cold because of that. However, the fresh air was exactly what Yoongi needed so he deeply inhaled when the boys sat on their favorite bench in the park near the mansion. Hoseok couldn't help but chuckle at how cute Yoongi looked in his black hat with earflaps, the younger wanted just to pinch his chubby cheeks.

"Do you think that I'm broken?" The older asked suddenly while Hoseok was busy admiring his beauty.

"What?" The question caught the boy off guard and he blinked several times trying to process what had his boyfriend just said.
