This was definitely not how Seungmin had imagined his remaining day off, he was more hoping that he would be able to sit in the comfort of his apartment and catch up on his books. However, the appearance of the kid at the door in the morning was already an announcement for him that he would not spend that day as he planned. Jeongin's request only confirmed his belief, so he decided not to leave it for later and immediately after returning, he stood in front of the neighbor's door, waiting for him to open it.
The boy took full advantage of the moment of waiting to figure out how to start a conversation with the elder, because the fact that Jeongin told him that something was wrong did not give him much room to maneuver in the discussion with the elder.
Luckily, fate smiled on him a little, because as soon as Chan opened the door, he wasn't even allowed to open his mouth because Jisung's visibly shaken father started speaking first.
-Seungmin! Oh God, I'm so sorry about my son, I don't know what came into his mind to go to you, he could have gone to me... ehh... thank you for taking him
The quick way of speaking made it a bit difficult for the younger man to understand what he was saying, but he caught the part about apologies and thanks, so he nodded slightly with an awkward smile.
-It's nothing, is everything ok?
He asked, worried about the neighbor's rather unusual behavior, now seeing that Jeongin was actually right that something must have happened. Seungmin also had doubts that it was only related to yesterday's call from Felix.
-I...
Chan started but stopped, hesitating greatly before saying something
-Hey, we're neighbors, so you can tell me if something happens, I'll be happy to help you
Saying this, Seungmin was surprised himself, because he wasn't the type to interfere in other people's affairs, usually he preferred that everyone deal with their own affairs, but this time he wanted to make an exception and he wasn't sure what it was all about, or maybe he just felt sorry for the older one, who didn't look the best. Or maybe it was because he even liked this strange "family" or maybe he was just doing it for Jeongin. Just like most things lately.
Well, I guess the reason wasn't important anyway, he thought, putting his hand on the other's shoulder as if to give him support, and that was the moment when he could see a certain change in the way Chan was looking at him.
-Changbin disappeared, there are none of his things and... absolutely nothing, he didn't even leave a note, Seungmin nothing
He finally admitted, clearly worried about his friend who wasn't responding to any of his messages.
-Do you know why he could go away so suddenly?
The boy asked, looking sympathetically at the elder, who instead of answering him nodded, signaling him to go inside, apparently not wanting to tell him about it over the threshold of the apartment, where all the residents of the block could hear them.
So without adding anything, Seungmin went inside, immediately seeing the mess inside, it literally looked like a tornado had passed through the apartment.
-Sorry, I was hoping that maybe I would find something from him
-You don't have to explain yourself hyung, it's better to tell us what happened between you
The younger one said, taking a seat on the sofa, where the preschooler's father also sat down, even giving him a slight grateful smile.
-We had a quarrel, a lot of unnecessary words were said, which I regret... but I didn't think he could move on from it...
