Time goes by
Look back on my day, which felt long
It's only short but I didn't know at that time.

Jeonghan plopped down in his bed after returning from the office. Everyone went to their respective rooms as all six if them used to live together in the same mansion. They had decided to go to see Seokmin after a couple of hours and hence a small nap sounded tempting to him.

Joshua and Mingyu were going to leave in one car while him, Seungkwan, Hoshi and Dino had decided to order takeaways on their way from their favourite restaurant and organise a dinner for Rose Quartz.

When he sat on the bed, his mind went back to the few people he had met in the morning. He recalled their wide, astonished eyes and numb behaviour after meeting him.

Things I just passed by
I just want to see you more today

He scrunched his brows, "Why did they behave like that? Or am I just overthinking?"

He just removed his shoes and coat to get comfortable on the bed and to his surprise, his beauty sleep visited him almost instantly.
-

"Wow, I finally got some alone time with you."

"Yeah, so tell me, what's my surprise?" Jeonghan asked with a teasing chuckle.

"Have some patience, will you?"

"I'm patiently waiting since morning, isn't that enough?" Jeonghan crossed his arms across his chest.

"Okay, close your eyes."

Jeonghan immediately complied with the instruction.

"And, here you go."

He felt the cold metal touching the skin of his warm neck as he got excited while someone fixed the chain on his neck.

"Open your eyes and look into the mirror."

"Wow! Isn't this the same locket-"

"Yeah, the same locket which you sacrificed to buy a better gift for your mom."

"It's beautiful thankyou so much! This is a gift I'll treasure forever, not because I like it but because you put so much observation and thoughts to buy me this." Jeonghan embraced the other male.

"It's fine Jeonghan, all I want to tell you is that you always work hard. You're my strength, my support and I always learn a lot of things from you. I just hope you stay healthy and happy and keep taking care of us. No one does it like you do."

"I'm so touched Seun-"
-

And he woke up. The face was blurry again. The name was forgotten again. He didn't know what he just saw was a memory or just a casual dream.

But the locket? Yeah, he was currently wearing it around his neck. He never removed it, to be honest.

It was a gift. But from whom?

Beautiful memories that can't be brought back
Time like blood flowing from the wrist
Memories drift away and before you know it, the wide sea

Who was the person who understood his desires? Who was the person who wished him a happy and healthy life? What was his name? How did he look like? How did he sound?

Tons of questions but not a single answer. Do you know how frustrating it was?

"C'mon think Jeonghan! Try to recall it, who was it?" Jeonghan grabbed his hair tightly, "Please! You can do it! Who was it? WHO?!"
