As your eyes settled on the screen of your phone, reading Heeseung's text message, you couldn't help but scoff at it. You looked out the window of the cafe you were supposed to meet your boyfriend for your lunch date but he sent a text, canceling for what felt like the hundredth time this month. You could feel him slipping away from you with the other half of the bed empty almost every night, your dates constantly canceled, and your texts going unread. You decided not to respond to Heeseung, after all, what was the point? As you finished the remainder of your drink, you decided that you were going to enjoy the day to yourself regardless of whether or not Heeseung was going to be with you.

And that's exactly what you did.

You explored the city and took your own pictures, found a new favorite trail to walk on, and bought yourself a new bag. Despite all the texts and calls from Heeseung, you ignored them all to give him a little taste of his own medicine. When you got home, you were more surprised than anything to see Heeseung waiting for you.

"Where the hell have you been?" he asked. You looked at him, noticing how his eyes narrowed in on you and his arms crossed over his chest which caused his biceps to bulge out.

"Oh, so you care about me?"

"Of course I care, why wouldn't I?"

"Well you canceled for the hundredth time today, I decided to have fun by myself." His eyes cast to the floor, unable to look at you. You heard him let out a sigh as he muttered,

"I'm sorry." You knew that when Heeseung became an idol, he'd have a busy schedule. You supported his dreams, had been there from the start but what good was your efforts when right now it felt as if you weren't even in a relationship? Sure, Heeseung was sorry but you had heard the words thousands of times that you felt nothing anymore.

"How many times am I supposed to forgive you?" you asked, voice barely above a whisper.

"Babe, I've just been busy. You know how important promotion season is, I just don't have the time for things like I used to."

"I know that but you can't even go on one damn date the entire month?"

"We spend all night practicing for performances that I'm better off spending the night at Jay or Jake's instead of coming home. With the events we have along with the dates you wanna go on and your constant texts, it's just inconvenient."

"Inconvenient?" It was with Heeseung's words that you realized, you had had enough. If your constant attempts to keep the relationship, well, a relationship turned out to be inconvenient to Heeseung then there was no point to it. If all the time you spent checking up on him turned out to be inconvenient then you had no reason to put in any effort anymore. You knew that work and his dreams were important but so were you.

"I didn't mean it like that, there are things that I need to do and responsibilities I need to focus on-"

"Am I not important to you anymore?" As your ears were met with silence you felt your breathing caught up in your throat. Waiting for Heeseung to answer only to be met with no reply, through his hesitance you found your answer.
