   "The results are very good", Doctor Lee stated as she held the papers of Taehyun's tomography and test results, flipping through the pages while Taehyun and Soobin sat with perked up ears in front of her, their hearts accelerating from anticipation and excitement, "Congratulations. You're definitely improving"

   Soobin and Taehyun gave each other excited glances before they both turned to face Doctor Lee again, Soobin smiling widely at her while Taehyun was more focused on his results in his hands, holding onto the paper that had his name written on it, his fingers caressing over the lettering on the paper. He couldn't help but feel happy to know his health was improving. He didn't really have any hope when he was starting treatment but now here he was, getting better faster than he expected and he was glad about this. It's like something out of a fairytale or something.

   "The medication you're taking has a really good effect on your health", Doctor Lee continued once she saw Taehyun's reaction "You can expect your complete recovery to take a very long time, but I believe you'll get there", she smiled reassuringly at him and Taehyun nodded in understanding, "We just need to keep an eye on you for a couple of months to make sure everything is fine"

   "There won't be any complications, right?", Soobin asked the doctor nervously.

   Doctor Lee shook her head, "I don't think so, but we need to keep things in check"

   Taehyun exhaled deeply, relieved. Soobin had told him before that he would succeed but Taehyun didn't believe him. Now he was getting better and he couldn't be happier because of that.

   Soobin drove him back home after he was done with his appointment. Oh, how Taehyun wished he could jump at Beomgyu and tell him that he was getting better, to share his happiness with him but he knew he couldn't because Beomgyu was no longer interested in him. Beomgyu no longer cared about him. How could he forget him so easily?

   "Where were you two?", Yeonjun asked Soobin and Taehyun once they entered the house, Beomgyu was also beside him and Taehyun was trying to avoid his gaze at all costs.

   "We were in a nearby cafe and chatted for some time", Soobin lied and flashed the oldest male a smile to mask his lie.

   "Yeah", Taehyun also gave him a tight-lipped smile, taking off his jacket.

   "I'll leave now", Soobin said, staring at his older friend, "You're coming to the meeting, Hyung, right?"

   "Sure", Yeonjun nodded, "Let's go there together"

   "So you're leaving already?", Beomgyu asked, getting on his feet while Yeonjun did two top buttons of his suit, smiling at his younger husband.

   "Yes", he responded, "But I'll be back soon"

   Taehyun nearly got sick at their sweet conversation. He couldn't help but feel needles pricking his heart when the couple pecked each other's lips. He couldn't stand this kind of situation anymore. He couldn't stand Beomgyu acting like he didn't even exist. That hurt. The blonde couldn't even look at him and when he did, it broke his heart even more. He felt like Beomgyu no longer loved him. Like the older had never loved him in the first place.

   Beomgyu sent his husband off with one last peck, and then Yeonjun and Soobin went outside to leave for a meeting. Beomgyu and Taehyun were now alone in the house, but neither of them talked. Taehyun just kept petting the puppy that was happily sitting on his lap, watching his every move. It was quite a funny sight to see if it weren't for how sad he looked at the moment.

   Beomgyu sighed heavily, sitting beside the boy before staring at him with curious eyes while Taehyun kept gazing at Lucas and caressed him.

   "Why do I feel like you've been avoiding me?", he asked and watched the way Taehyun flinched at his question. Why should he ask such a thing anyway? Of course, Taehyun wouldn't want to talk to him ever again now that he was so much better off without him. It hurt so bad knowing that.
