jeongguks pov:
i threw my suitcase in the backseat and walked round to the drivers seat to open the door and sit down. i thought to myself for a few moments before starting up the car, not realising i had been staring into space for the past 10 minutes. i'm excited to see my parents again after 2 years but i'm just so worried. todays the day i'm going to tell them everything. i snapped out of my trance and tried to start up the car with a struggle, i hate this car i'm driving. music is an escape since i'm forced to deal with what i feel since i can't hide from it so the sound just drowns everything out. i turn on the car radio and connected it to my phone, playing 'another love' by tom odell on 60% volume, not having it too loud since i wouldn't want get distracted and kill myself without hugging my parents as tight as i could and telling them i love them dearly beforehand. i lowered my feet onto the pedals and set off in the direction of my home town, busan.

busan is an estimated 4 hour drive from seoul but jeongguk did't mind. he loved his parents with every bone in his body and would do anything to see them, he had just been so busy these past 2 years with work that he hadn't had the time to drive so far out. jeongguk finally got a 2 week holiday so he instantly chose to call his parents and arrange for him to stay there with them for the next 2 weeks and his parents said yes with a warm heart, but will their heart be so warm after he finally tells them he how feels?

the drives were full of long winding highways that were busy, delaying him further. songs played one after another but one specifically on replay, 'you get me so high' by the neighbourhood. this was jeongguks favourite song by his favourite artist. the lyrics and melody all put together felt like a dream, he wanted someone to make feel so high on love whether that be a man or a woman. jeongguks mind was flooded with worried thoughts but he stayed focused on the road, occasionally looking down at the sat nav to see directions.

jeongguk was only 20 minutes away from his parents house as he reached the main part of the city, admiring the view around him. it has been so long since he's been to his home town and he really missed busan. he drove past his favourite coffee shop and decided to stop to get him and his parents a coffee. after 5 minutes of waiting, he picked up his order and headed back to his car where he would carry on his journey along the road to his parents house.

after 5 hours of driving, jeongguk reached the destination he had longed to be. he parked in the nearest parking space from the house and climbed out the drivers side of the car, grabbing his suit case and the coffees and propped the cup holding on top of the suitcase as he dragged it to the front door. his heart was pounding out of chest, he wonders what will happen.
