Yn: "Hi, Christian." I smiled, but also fidgeted with my hands.
Christian: "You alright?"
Yn: "Yeah, just my nerves."
Christian: "What you nervous for?"
Yn: "A lot of things." I huffed. "For starters, my anxiety kicked in about twenty minutes ago, so I went back inside for a minute. Then..my mom died a few days ago."
Christian: "Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to-"
Yn: "It's alright, you know. She wasn't necessarily the best parent..I don't even know why I cried about her."
Christian: "It's alright to grieve over someone who wasn't there for you. Do you need a hug?"
Yn: "Yeah." My voice broke a little as I said nearly tearing up.
Calum rushed over. The guys watched, concerned that Christian did something.
Calum: "Are you alright, love?"
Yn: "Yeah, I'm alright..it's..well, you know what it's about."
He bent down and gave me saddened eyes.
Calum: "I know. Do you need anything, like water even?"
I nodded my head yes. So Calum briskly walked into the house.
Christian: "So, what were you listening to?"
Yn: "Hm?"
Christian: "I can see you're using an AirPod, so..I'm just curious. What's playing?"
I was embarrassed to show him, but I did.
Christian: "Friends?" He chuckled.
Yn: "Yeah, we were listening to the new EP earlier. I love Moonlight."
Christian: "Thanks, it's one of my favorites too." He smiled.
I see Calum walk back my way and he hands me a glass of water. I take a sip, it feels nice.
Yn: "Thanks, baby."
Calum: "No problem, love."
Everyone started looking our way.
Clinton: "Is everything alright?"
Yn: "Yeah, just..personal issues."
Calum: "Well..let's go. I've got to show you something." He reached out for my hand.
Yn: "Okay." I took his hand and followed him through the house. He grabbed his keys off the kitchen counter and we walked out the front door.
Secret Place at 7 pm
We were pulling up to this parking lot filled with sand on this hill.
Yn: "What're we doing here, Cal?"
Calum just looked at me not saying a word. He got out and opened my door for me. I got out and we walked to the railing. The sunset was nearly over, considering its almost dark. But it was a beautiful sight. I backed up a little bit and took a photo of him.
