Yongbok's P.O.V:

Sue this neck and back pain. Ugh.

I woke up and i was already possessed with aches early in the morning. It didn't even wait for few more hours.

Welp. I hold all the credit of fault in here tho. I slept on the floor, a hard floor that doesn't support my body properly so what should I expect? And this is not the first time, anyways.

At least it's not as quite painful as the first time i slept here on the floor.

Sometimes, i also wonder to myself on why am I doing all these funny and bizarre actions. Why should I be this desperate taking care of Hyunjin. I don't have to come to this stage, but here I am, stepping on the platform. I was reckless for some occasion with making decisions. But it didn't matter. Because this is what makes me feel safe and contented.

Not gonna lie, i was traumatized from that 3 am issue last week, and i am scared for the history to come back. But if that happens, i will be here in no time, doing the same thing i did the last time—making sure Hyunjin is fine and is not jeopardizing his self.

My landlord thought i didn't notice, but i know that he sometimes are crying whenever i come home. I was just not speaking. I listen to all his sobs and it breaks my heart. He doesn't speak all his problems out and always work it in his mind, just letting the salty tears scream for sorrow.

I want to help him more. I don't want just to take care of him, i want to help him with all these weights above his shoulders. I want to wipe his tears away and soothingly rub his back whenever he crumble down. I want to comfort him so bad. But if he don't want it yet, i will not force myself or even him for such act. I want him to be the one to slowly open himself for me because he genuinely want to. Not because i want to.

So the only thing i could do for him now is make him something for breakfast, then leave him a take out or some of my own made cooks for dinner, and sleep outside his door to make sure he's safe and fine.

I yawned as i started getting up from the floor, picking up the blanket and pillows and put them back on my bed, folding the blanket neatly. I went to the bathroom and finished my usual routine in the morning, finishing with me going to the kitchen to prepare our breakfast.

Although i know the result will remain the same, i still opened the empty fridge, letting me see nothing in there—as usual. The eggs that he have is now only good for two days and the box of cereal is already in the trash can. It's been emptied since two days ago. Really, Hyunjin's kitchen stock is at risk right now.

I sighed as i took two eggs. I nibbled on my lower lip, looking at the two hard eggs in my hands. I'm getting a bit anxious that Hyunjin might be fed up with the repetitive set of food over and over.

But whenever i come home, this table where I leave our breakfast appears to be clean, no any plates or bowls left behind. That means Hyunjin consumes everything I cook. That's good, right?? He wouldn't mind for...another egg dish, right?

I hope he don't.

I gotta make it up to him later. I will bring home something i made!

While preparing the scrambled eggs, a blurry vision of my yesterday memory crept up. If i wasn't mistaken, i saw Hyunjin there. He was kneeling beside me, like he was watching me while I was asleep.

Am i going crazy? Did that really happen or was i dreaming?

I couldn't tell. It happened so fast. I planned touching his cheeks to tell if the Hyunjin before me was true, but since i thought I was dreaming, i pulled out.
