The excuse (season 2)

Part 2

It seemed as if the world stopped for you too. Seeing him for real, after years, made your legs go weak. You felt heavy and overwhelming but at the same time you wanted to hug him so tight and tell him that you too still love him.

But is that possible? Can you guys get back to being together again?

"Y-y/n" Namjoon mumbled as he walked towards you.

Your body was stiff without any movement. His steps halted as he was inches away from you now. He brought his hand to your cheek and caressed it.

"Joon" as soon as you called him like this, he engulfed you into a tight hug.

You held him tight, sensing the low sobs coming out of his mouth. You felt so guilty being the cause of his sorrow. Staying away from our love is so hard and you know it well too cause you too love Joon. But all you did was for his welfare, for his career, for his dreams. Everyone in the room left, leaving space for you both who were still hugging.

Soon, he released the hug and looked straight into your eyes. His eyes were holding the tears that he refused to let out anymore as it might worry you.

"Have you been well?" Joon asked you.

You nodded, giving a small smile. Cat got your tongue seeing him in front of you like this. He sighed, smiling back and walked you to the nearest sofa. He made you sit and sat beside you, turning to your side.

"Congratulations for your success. You achieved all your dreams right?" You said.

"Yes, I did everything I wanted to, except one" he replied.

You furrowed your brows, thinking about what might still be left for him to do.

"Haha, leave it. Did you eat anything? When did you arrive in Seoul?" Namjoon bombarded you with questions.

"I arrived yesterday evening and yeah I ate" you replied.

"What about your life there?" He asked you.

"It's so good. I'm independent and happy" the word happy was actually a lie you told him.

Of course you were happy that you're independent, alone and made many friends but missing him and not being able to be with him did eat your happiness.

"Did you like the job there?"

"Yes, I loved it" your replies were short.

You were looking down, contemplating everything that had in your mind and he sensed it. He held your hands and you looked at him.

"Why are you sad?" He was worried.

"N-no Joon, nothing like that"

"Is there something you need to tell me?" He asked you.

You nodded hastily and took a deep breath.

"I'm so sorry Joon, I messed up everything here, didn't I? I left everything here and you had to face all the consequences. My father must've troubled you and your agency a lot" you said everything swiftly.

He chuckled looking at you. Who would think that you would come all this far to apologise for the matter that happened years ago.

"Is this why you came here? To apologise?" He asked you.

Yes he was hurt. He thought you came back to him but no, you came back to just say a sorry.

"It's not like that, Joon, things that happened were not small. Everything happened because of me" you replied.
