"Marry me, baby." 




And one day after a long business meeting, Sunghoon ran straight towards Jake for a long warm hug.

"Baby, I missed you~~" Sunghoon pulled Jake in a hug.

"I missed you too." Jake hugged him tighter.

Sunghoon pulled away from the hug as he leaned in to peck Jake.


"I have day off tomorrow, should we go somewhere?" Sunghoon asked.

"Hoon-ahh," Jake pulled him in a hug.

"Hmm? Is something wrong, baby?" Sunghoon caressed his back.


"I am leaving to Australia tomorrow." Jake sighed long.

"Huh? Leaving? Australia?" Sunghoon pulled away from the hug.


"Umm, My grandpa is sick and I need to be present there for him." Jake sighed.

"Ohhh." Sunghoon nodded, "Should I come with you?"

"No, I will go by myself, hoon-ah. And I'll be back in no time." Jake sighed.


"Why are you sighing? Is he in very bad condtion?  I can always go with you, you know, right?" Sunghoon held his shoulder.

"Yes, I know but my grandpa wants it to be like family reunion after a long time. I might be late too." Jake sighed again.


"I can always wait for you and we will keep contact with each other." Sunghoon pulled Jake in a hug again.

"I know. I'll be back soon." Jake settled in Sunghoon's arm.


"But I am afraid."

"Why? You don't need to be. I am always here." Sunghoon rubbed his back, "And just say a word and I'll come running to you, hmm?"

"Umm." Jake nodded.

"Call me as soon as you arrive. And if you miss me or need me, just say a word and I'll come running to you." Sunghoon caressed Jake's cheek.

"Umm I will." Jake nodded, his eyes glistening.

"Why are you tearing up? Should I come with you, right now?" Sunghoon asked as Jake chuckled.


"No need. I'll come back to you. I promise. Wait for me." Jake tiptoed and kissed Sunghoon.

"I will." Sunghoon nodded.

"Bye then."


"Ohh wait. Here I bought you something." Sunghoon took out a ring and puts it on for Jake.

"Thankyou." Jake kissed him again, "I'll never keep it away from me."


"I love you." Sunghoon said as Jake just smiles, nodding his head before walking in.






That was the end.

He clearly asked Sunghoon to wait for him but that was it. That was the last time they ever saw each other or even talked to each other.


The day Sunghoon started being a mess. And also the day, Jay started cleaning after his mess.
